| ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- and lead you down that road again... I was feeling better but now my head hurts again and I'm a bit woozy. Such is the January cold. Things have been weird in Shivers-land during these first seven days of 2004 but I am determined to make this a good year. This year I want to:
Is this too much to ask? This is what I want this year. I can make it all happen. Note to everyone to whom I promised 2003 mix CDs - they're coming....hopefully sooner rather than later. I've spent the last two nights cooking cleaning house instead of burning CDs...it's just a relief to have a non-holiday house and food that doesn't involve take-out or convenience packaging. So, a year-and-a-half ago my grandmother - whom I've never met in person - basically disinherited/disowned me because I allegedly failed to send her a thank-you note for a check she sent me the previous Christmas. That BioMom took her side and didn't seem to believe me when I insisted that I did send a thank-you note, only added insult to injury. But, you know, whatever. I still send Bio Grandma a Christmas card because she is 80-something and senile and even though she doesn't want to meet me, I still feel some weird connection. Well, this Christmas, she was so touched by my card that she decided to un-disinherit/disown me and had BioMom send us a check for $300. I feel weird taking the money - but I'm not stupid. It's going towards the new computer we hope to get soon. And you can bet your bottom obligation money dollar that I've already sent out a thank-you note. Yep, a weird 2004 so far...I'm OK with weird...as long as it doesn't lead to bad or unbearable. Speaking of unbearable...I need some advil and hot tea. 3:28 pm - 01.07.04
