And the day was busy, but not out of hand. There were only three of us there all day, and I really feel like I've not been pulling my weight lately, but they seem to understand. Irritated, of course, but understanding about it.

I was feeling so good that I called Lee Ann and told her that we would see her and Jody at the bar tonight, and I was really sincere about that, I want to listen to some music and drink a few beers with Karen and friends, but I'm afraid that I just ran out of steam. Sorry, Lee Ann.

We were planning on going about at the half of the K-State game, but by the time I sat down I knew it was all over, all over.

I still spent a lot of time in the bathroom today, but I do think that I'm a whole lot better in that respect, but I'm just being really cautious, both in my outlook and in my behavior, hence the many BR visits.

Some day I will learn to break up sentences like that last one, or maybe just realize that that's just the way I sometimes do things, but it's more likely that I will forget that anyone has anything against sentences that run on for three or four paragraphs and just continue to do what I do, which is ignore conventions for the sake of my art, or for the sake of *your* art, if it happens to get in the way of mine.

But what the hey, so far no ellipses in this entry!

K-State played valiant football tonight, giving away two touchdowns which cost them the game. Still, they took it down to the wire, making for good entertainment. And being beaten by the Buckeyes isn't really something to be ashamed of, after all.

I promised to scan some pics of the grandkids sometime last month, and I haven't done that yet. In fact, December 2003 was absolutely bereft of photos, how unlike what I want to be. January will be better, picture-wise, I promise. After all, how could it be any worse? It's a win-win situation if I don't drop the ball, heh.

This last two weeks has taken a lot out of me, and I need to rest and get it back, I'm looking forward to not being a slug, y'know?
