I was upstairs in my job counselor's office, at my clubhouse this afternoon, before Toastmasters. I've asked her, if we could look at pictures of Mick, on the Internet. She caved in. After a few pictures, I started to feel a little frisky. I've lost all sense of time and space, and accidentally knocked my tea, off of her desk. Let's just say, that we won't be googleing pictures any more, when I'm up there.

i took a walk in mid-40s weather with the rain pounding down like cats and dogs. i was wearing just a net top shirt and thin scrub bottoms with no umbrella. i was so determined to get in my daily 3 mile walk that i risked my health getting soaked in the cold rain for the better part of an hour. but i am weird that way. i have been known to go jogging in the middle of a thunder and lightning storm.

That sounds nice actually. There's a spiritual practice where you go up the tallest hill you can find in a thunderstorm or snowstorm and take off all your clothes. It's really exhilarating. You can get a minor version of it just by walking or running or loitering in severe weather.

I'm glad I am not alone. I recently tried to step on a bug in our un-carpeted living room, slipped and fell on my ass. I dont know if it was stupid or clumsy or both, but I was in bed for a couple of days from it. I am not used to falling so suddenly or so hard.
I slipped on a frozen chip a few years back and broke my big toe. I also dropped my rabbit the other day (he's fine!)

Walked 2 miles with bare feet, had some cuts and dead skin peel back on the heel and all over the foot. I wondered why there wasn't so much blood but I guess I'll never know...
I saw someone who I hadn't seen in a while. She saw me from a distance and called "Aimless?" I was supposed to say "Michelle?" but it came out "Aimless?"

This reminds me of one (not recent, but still funny). I was writing "Happy birthday!" on a card for someone while watching the episode of Rugrats where they go to the miniature golf course and think the ice cream statue is real ice cream. Well, I realized I wrote "Happy ice cream!" instead of "Happy birthday!"

It seems to be a pattern with me. I called my friend Barbara once and got the voice mail:
I Ieft this message:
"Hi Aimless, this is Barbara I mean Hi Barbara this is Aimless".
She was laughing when she called back. We grew up together and she knows me better than anybody.
