No winter, and no discontent. Had a passionate weekend filled with sex and eating and lounging. It's Monday, and I am sorting things out for the coming week, in a completely languid and pacified manner.
I have small matters to attend, such as mending the hole in my ceiling caused by a now repaired roof leak.
I have finished a Nicholas Sparks book, a wholesome altruistic affair, and am now reading a more neurotic, dark, sexually charged novel by Erica Jong.
I received a rather steep Christmas gift request, and have been hashing over how to handle it. I think I will maybe help the recipients out financially and let them do the logistics and part of the financial requirements for procuring the gift.
Still dreaming as much as any time in my life. I, among many other dreams, have recently dreamt of being back in the Army. I did this more than once. Most memorably, I bought frozen foods and left them on my car in the PX parking lot, where they started to rapidly melt before I remembered to get them to a freezer. The landscape was heavy with trees and hills. I also dreamt I was sent to an American embassy in China with a group of other American nationals, where we were instructed to simply live and get paid for it! We got interviewed, had physicals, and were dispatched into the Chinese city where the embassy was. We all then donned crow costumes complete with black clothing and beaked masks!
My unjust divorce has been only a very faint simmer in my life. I'm.... glad?
