I've been cleaning my house for a few hours now and my hands are chapped from all the bleach. Why? You may ask... I'm having a million people over here tomorrow for a brunch to celebrate my anniversary.
But today was a day of celebrations too... LilSis graduated from law school!!! It was very exciting. She looked super-adorable in her robe with its hefty hood.
This week has been exhausting beyond belief for a whole slew of reasons. I'm not sure what happened to my blogging rhythm, but it's getting harder and harder to get myself to keep track of everything that happens. So much has changed since I started blogging... not just in my own life, but with my readers too. It seems that everyone is in a different place. Some people have disappeared altogether.
I wrote a paper on British taxation and handed it in on Wednesday. I did it in one afternoon at a cafe called "Grounded," sitting with Hammer while she read Simone de Beauvoir and we both took note of the dramatic weather. We ate lunch at the Corner Bistro. It reminded me of N (because of this day two years ago!) and I'm still not sure what to do with all of those feelings. It's like-- they just have nowhere to go.
Anyway, I'm too busy to dwell on it, really... I've been working my ass off for school and teaching and AA and I'm finally going to read my 5th Step on Sunday! I can't wait!!! I want my 4th step off my back already.
Well, that's it for now... I better get back to cleaning before I lose my momentum.
Oh-- and congrats to VJ! She has her Master's now! How masterful she is... :)
love,
Hyde
Oh-- PS: Spinster asked what my painting was about. It was a Jekyll and Hyde painting. It was about exorcising my past. The old, sick, self-destructive me is floating out of the new more serene me. If only it were all true, though... I still have to stop learning how to equate love with self destruction.
PPS: Do any of you besides me and Hammer watch Ugly Betty? I have a crush on Daniel. Ha ha... Too bad the season just ended. Not only is he "unavailable" because he's fictional, but now he's not even on TV anymore. Figures...

Yes, I watch Ugly Betty!
No one around here watches it, I would love to gossip with you girls about it!
Hah! Another Ugly Betty fan! I'm such a sap: I cried at the end of the finale. I saw it coming when he went into the store, but still...!
I got a kick out of the crazed case worker; I have the same name. *G*
So, how was the get together?
