Day 29
|
Nearing the End.
Just a normal, rambling entry today. My life has been far from normal this past week. I feel like I've been fending things off left and right for some time. Kind of like King Kong on the Empire State Building swatting at the airplanes that are shooting rounds.
Funeral-wise, it looks like our closure on this will have to wait for a couple of weeks, at least. He will be cremated, and due to considerations back east the memorial here will be delayed a bit. Late January at the earliest, it would seem. It still preoccupies my mind. I think about him nearly all day, every day. It doesn't bring him back, just in my mind.
Yesterday, I had dinner with Moxie et. al. and such a meal that can only be described as decadent. I wouldn't be shocked if I weigh more today. But I did drink and eat until I could eat no more and I saw a lovely Christmas tree. Post-holiday, it still had lustre.
I'm also busy doing retail therapy, which oddly works. I got some dinero for Christmas, so I bought one of these, (very nice indeed) and this (very funny, and Meryl Streep? Yeah.).
This weekend I do have New Year's plans, which hopefully involve just enough alcohol but not too much alcohol (champagne has been purchased, so has wine), and the beach. It really sounds quite nice and fun. I'm sure it will be.
I have more hope for 2007 than you might think, given all that has happened. I do feel that this year will be incredibly different from the last, just like the year before that, and so on. I'm doing my best, and I'm doing what I can to take care of myself. That's about all I can do. |
