there are these vines, like kudzu, but it's not s'posed to grow this far north, that have been completely taking over all the vegetation around here. and noone's mentioned it. it seems that most of it grew while i was off driving cross-country. it was terribly odd driving back into the area and seeing it all after having driven through virginia and arkansas and seeing large growths of kudzu for the first time just a week or so before. it's at the same time both really neat and kinda scary.
the night before last i dreamt that i was driving cross-country again, by myself this time, and some chick had stowed away in my car. she was wearing a white sweater and glasses.
today is the day that lakeville internet dissolves and li.com comes into being. big changeover at midnight. which is also when the imac is going to be officially released. they're just so nifty looking that it would be cool to own one, but it's nothing more of a computer than what i've already got.
driving home from work last night i got all sad about moving to texas and being so far away from the people here. erin mostly, but also sam and bret and a few others. i almost started crying, but then i began composing text in my head and that was basically the end of that. i catch myself analyzing stuff as it happens a lot recently, for the purpose of putting it online. i'm not sure if it's good that i'm thinking about things in a new way or if it's bad that i'm diluting the experience.
and speaking of things that are sad, mom and sam are off to disney world tomorrow. i really wish i was going. as fake and plastic and corporate and commercial as disney is, i still wish i was going. but with all this new li.com stuff, and the fact that i just had a two week "vacation", i can't. bummer.
my sleep schedule has been completely out of whack since i got back last week. i'm exhausted by 10 but i don't ever go to sleep until 2 or 3 and then feel under-rested when i get up and drag myself into work late, without any breakfast 'cept for a glass of bubbly vitamin c stuff.
it rained for about thirty seconds tonight. that's not enough. i want to play in the rain.
