Normal
It’s the end of November: The air is warm and electric with the slightest hint of humidity, the wind roars around you and then behind you and then through your hair, and leaves — two weeks ago saturated with yellows and reds — are now rigid and brittle. They skitter across the street like rats [...]

One small step …
Went to the gym today. There’s a lot of ground I’ve got to re-cover. But it was good to be back. Didn’t have to explain my absence to anyone. I suppose I still might run into Jade and have to explain things, but I’ll cross that bridge when I stumble up to it.

Suck it, Internet Explorer
So I just realized, thanks to a tip from Tamara, that Nocturnal Admissions looks like ass in IE. Most things do, but I don’t want my stuff to.

Thankfully
• I will not be one of the hundred billion enthusiastic holiday shoppers busting doors Friday morning. • There will most likely be leftover food at work Friday.

Eight pounds?
So, it’s nearly Thanksgiving and lots of things in my life have happened since I started the diet, but I’ve managed not to backslide very much. Those first two weeks or so I lost some poundage to the tune of three or four pounds — all the water consumption is responsible for that, I’m sure. [...]

Score
I opened the dryer and guess what tumbled out along with a sock and a pair of ratty underwear? Seven dollars, that’s what.

Piece of sh-t car
Last night I saw a shooting star. Made a very selfish wish. Found out today there was a meteor shower last night. Realized I should have made a different very selfish wish — one for a new car that starts when I ask it to. A new car that won’t sit for twenty minutes, security [...]
