Good day.

I feel great today. Better than I have in a long time.... Super motivated and excited about all the things I'm going to get done. Here's my list:

• Take clothes to Salvation Army Yeah! Three garbage bags of shit that won't have to fit in my car!
• Make 5 copies of my mom's car key -- veeeeery late xmas present
• Write my cousin Spencer a letter
• Empty out milk crates from basement
• Pack books and papers into said milk crates
• Buy a computer battery online   Too expensive for a used battery, need to consult. 
• Go for a very long walk; sweat Instead I twisted my ankle, so... no walk today. 
• Get a box for Tyler's things from Michigan
• Go to post office     I love my lover. 
• Look at Target for car top cargo bag   $70, I might get it in a couple weeks... Insetad I bought underwear and sock monkey slippers (which I have wanted forever, and a new belt-- since mine is 7 years old and falling apart. 

And... with any extra time... I am going to clean my filthy fucking house. Woohoo!

Umn. Oops.

Today, before I started tackling my list, I missed a step and landed sideways on my ankle on concrete. Oops. I was on the phone and carrying bags for the thrift to my car. It hurt bad, then it didn't hurt -- was kinda numb and hot, and now it hurts again. I need to ice and wrap it.
Then, when I got home from target, I was taking the packaging off my belt -- with my teeth, naturally -- and I busted my lip open.  Double oops.
I'm helping my Aunt Cyndi move tomorrow and I hope my ankle is okay for it.

I did some extra things not on my list. The most exciting one so far is that I went through my socks and underwear. I got 7 new pairs of unders at target so I could come home and get rid of all the ratty pairs. And socks, I have too many that I don't wear because they have holes or fall down. But, well... I attach sentimental value to a lot of things. I did a great job just now of throwing out a bunch of holey socks, and I have one plastic shopping bag of only socks to take to the thrift. And only two pair that I will cut off at the holey ankle to craft with.

I really feel like I'm taking care of business. Even if I am taking a lot of internet breaks.

I really am posting a lot today again. I feel okay about it.

So, this one is to say: If you live near I-90, and would like a visitor for a night in mid-March, let me know. I plan on leaving here around the 14th or 15th. This will be my first time doing this drive alone, and it would be great to break the monotony of the road with friends. So far I have a stop in Chicago but probably not an overnight. Mostly I'll be staying in hotels, which is pretty exciting to me.
