----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- it's really not that complicated.... I think my diary needs a new coat of paint - don't you agree? I don't know when I'll have time to freshen things up around here, hopefully soon. Hopefully before school starts. Got an e-mail from my graduate advisor. She seems surprised that I'll be commuting to school AND still working full-time. Great, just what I need - my advisor adding to my suspicion that I'm both foolish and crazy. Erg. In the car today, on the way to Trader Joe's (where I spent a ridiculous amount of money - but it's *Trader Joe's* we're talking about so it was all really good and I got a nice bang for my buck) I had a nice moment of realization. Well, it wasn't a NEW realization - rather an affirmation of a long-held feeling. I love being in my car. Now wait, I'm not crazy - I hate traffic. I hate rude drivers. But I love just going along in my car - even when I only have the radio to listen to because all my tapes are starting to get worn and so there I am flipping through stations and finally settling on a cheesy pop song and then unashamedly singing along really loudly because nobody in the outside / real world has to know that I know ALL the words to said cheesy pop song. I love being in my car - particularly alone - because it's like a nice little bubble of protection against all the things we're SUPPOSED to be in life - all the cool rules and the shoulds and the would-you's..... It's a nice place to just be me.... 10 points to the first person to correctly guess which cheesy pop song I was singing along to.... P.S. Welcome back to allmadhere... 5:00 pm - 08.08.02
