My head is all bollocksed up tonight.
I spent much of my day at the Superior Court, seeing if i was fit for Jury Duty. I did not meet hardship criteria, so i filled out the 11 page juror questionnaire. I found myself wishing James would be home soon after me, so i could sit and talk for hours about my anti-capital punishment thoughts that were swimming around and around. For that matter, they still are. In so many ways. Ugh.
Treated myself to a late lunch, alone with my book, at Ti Couz on the way home. Soup, salad, kir breton. Cute waitress bartender. Nice 45 minutes, even though my head was swimming.
Home to unsucessfully do a lot of work. I accomplished a bit, but not enough. Again, Ugh. I did manage to make up some chicken stock out of last week's roasted carcass, with carrots from the United Nations Plaza Farmers market. Got news that Tom was in the hospital, after falling down this morning, cutting his head and hurting his neck. We'll find out tomorrow if he stays at the hospital, goes to a nursing home, or goes back to his assisted living facility.
5:30. Embarked on a brief stroll to Foriegn Cinema. Wrote on my letter to James, as i was not able to reach him by phone earlier. Smiled and talked to Colleen, the bartender, who declared me her newest regular. Responded to bartender's friend and co-worker calling "hey Miss Muffin", which garnered me benny points from Colleen and friend. Beca arrived, and we had a good evening of oysters, drinks, and apps, with a quick walk at the end with the fuzzy pupthing.
I find my head is still swimming and bollocksed, on many counts. I'll check in again soon, though. For now, water and bed and cat for me.
