Sitting here obsessively checking email and my friends page and my saved google searches (basically, shortcuts to my posts and responses to them), I realize I could be spending this time posting an entry. Then I realize there's not a lot to tell because I've spent the last several days in a bit of a brainfog. Now, how much of this is related to my anemia and how much is simple stagnation, who knows. Anyway.

Exciting things in my life:

Womboink is four weeks away today. The best part for me is that nearly everyone's turned in their money, and I've done just about everything I can do ahead of time, so the rest is clear skating. I didn't procrastinate (much); I didn't spend money that wasn't mine; I didn't flake and blow people off (oops, except Patricia, to whom I am supposed to send a San Diego tourist package -- will do that tomorrow); I didn't make any major blunders; I perservered and tracked down Morgaine; I got questions answered; I accommodated everyone I could; I worked hard at finding funds for people whose trips wouldn't have been possible otherwise. Yay, me. Now I just have to go through all the money records, disburse the rest of the helpfund, and sit back and relax. Nice.

Cute-poet-chick got a bit of a windfall this week, and she gave us each a hundred bucks to just blow. We went on a shopping spree last night. I bought us dinner, and then we went to the mall. I found some really cute little things for the kids, but that was only around eight dollars. Spent another five on lunch today, so I've got most of my mad money left to spend. Fun.

Challenging stuff:

Some personal stuff I don't want to talk about here, but whose positive outcome I just want to visualize and make happen.

Stupid anemia, rassenfrassen menstrual problems, and other signs that I'm not the healthy person I had become used to being years ago. Grrr.

Other stuff:

I participate in an email community. There was a disagreement today, and it was basically between me and a person I adore. Felt weird to disagree and not paste all kinds of "but I adore you, you know that" disclaimers, but it also felt good to know that the person *knows* I care about zir, and (probably?) *knows* that even though I was being snarky, I still think the world of zir.

Finishing up cute-poet-chick's desk tonight. It's gonna be really cute. Then maybe we'll go to the free blues at Trolley Barn Park. We'll see.

Ooh, look, I got email from lcohen! More later.

sure, blame me for you not posting more ;-) .

i think you're doing a fabulous job organizing the womboink. go you!

hurray for the windfall!

i think you handled the e-mail list exchange very well--you weren't snarky. or at least you weren't nearly as snarky as i would have been tempted to be so you didn't register as snarky to me. but then we all know i'm the mean one!!

hope the desk comes together this time. have fun this weekend!
