Reading: The Lives of Dax
Listening: Thinking: I go walking after midnight, out in the moonlight, just like we used to do... Drinking: juice Ok-o-meter: 4.75 Quote for the day: You know youre drinking too much coffee when. . . the nurse needs a scientific calculator to take your pulse. Weather report: sunny Dream last night:
Next dream:
Phone rings in the middle of the night. "Pack everything and be ready to leave." D's voice. I get up and get dressing in jean shorts and a t-shirt. Mommy and Deb is in the kitchen making macaroni and potato salads for the picnic the next day. I knibble and sit at the dining table (by the front door). I can see the bushes outside move in the wind and the streetlights through the bushes. The windows are clouded glass. Knock on the door, I open it and D is standing there looking mad. Bicycle behind him. Chameleons on the front step. He comes in and follows me back into kitchen. Talk to Mommy for a little bit and steal some more tidbits from the salads. I walk back to table, he hugs me from behind and whispers in my ear. "You know what I came for, don't you?" I don't answer or can't answer because if I say no, he will never come back but if I say yes, he might misunderstand. I can't go with him now, I'm with Wayne and Wayne doesn't deserve for me to just dump him because D and I have history. D leaves. I go out and walk around the block. Duffle bags he was wearing is hanging on a branch. I take it down and hug it like it is him. I wake up. I feel like shit all the rest
of the day.
