2008-06-30 - What does this girl want??
2008-06-30 - Meandering of my running brain.
2008-06-29 - It's just wrong for me to even post this, but I can't help myself. Besides, both my fifty year-old imaginary Italian boyfriend and my twenty-eight year-old imaginary Polish boyfriend from London just emailed me. I just CAN'T choose.
2008-06-29 - Pics of the day
2008-06-29 - Questions to ask grandmothers. And I think I figured out the reason why I have them.
2008-06-28 - Not looking the other way. But today, I wore my red shoes. I forgot that I have marvelous red wedges. If not a red dress...
2008-06-28 - Dudes, dudes. It's all about the dudes.
2008-06-28 - Sydney, redux. And I just deleted the negative parts, mostly. I don't know why I'm feeling a bit bitter towards others today - not good. I do really feel pretty good and confident about being myself, doing my thing. :)
2008-06-28 - I can say this honestly.
2008-06-27 - Yogging time. Weekend! YAY!
2008-06-27 - TGIF for sure

2008-06-26 - run run run. wish I could stay home a bit longer this morning. need to get up earlier.
2008-06-25 - Very very meditative and actually QUITE happy at the moment. It's hotter and stinkier than you would believe here right now. Another reason that I need to move to Europe. OK. So Italy is hot. Maybe I should move to England or something.
2008-06-24 - Just a thought.
2008-06-24 - Seriously, I didn't take a breath
2008-06-24 - Sooooo forgetful.

2008-06-14 - Trying to crush the rising feelings of disappointment and even despair
2008-06-13 - WARNING: PIC BELOW THAT IS NOT GOOD FOR CHILDREN TO SEE. Making amends. The last entry was more of a rant than anything! ;)
2008-06-13 - A bit untalented, am I. Apology for the rant about the se here. I really should restrain myself. I'm feeling guilty. Not good. Next entry I will try to find some photos.
2008-06-13 - THanks thanks!
2008-06-12 - Achey and probably mildly concussed but I think OK.

2008-06-12 - a few pics
2008-06-11 - Interesting evening. I'm so glad that I'm OK. At least I think I'm OK. I spent the last five miles in the dark wondering if I was OK, because I couldn't see anything.
2008-06-11 - OH my goodness and I forgot to wish DAN A HAPPY BIRTHDAY WHEN I EMAILED HIM TODAY. I am the most self-centred person ever these days.

2008-06-09 - Hmm...hotter than hades in my apartment. It seems dirty.
2008-06-09 - Time to find a plan
2008-06-09 - Oddly, for me, I can't even TELL you what I'm feeling. But I'm feeling so much. It's all muddled together...blue and red and pink and yellow and green...forming one big muddy puddle.
2008-06-08 - Such a long, long couple of days. Haven't run or seen anything of the big V. (Still don't like Vancouver, actually.)
2008-06-07 - Just the seed.
2008-06-05 - I'll have to beg your forgiveness, before you even read this. :)

2008-06-04 - Oh the steam runs out. It does! It does! But who cares - I'm going to Firenze. And man this Chianti is good.
2008-06-03 - Kind of muddled and confused and puzzled. Uneasy, still. Can't put my finger on it.
2008-06-03 - I feel a bit uneasy, for some reason, but all will be well. :)

2008-06-01 - It's so gloomy, dreary and rainy here. And I'm so chilled and tired. Now cuddled up in a sweatshirt though. :)
2008-06-01 - I have to shake my head at myself...
2008-05-31 - So, so, so good, I must say. But I'm too prolific - the first entry for today was more important. This one is superfluous.
2008-05-31 - Always keep your child-like sense of wonder, and your yen for exploration.
2008-05-30 - It's not supposed to rain in the 'couv after March...

2008-05-29 - -
2008-05-29 - Laugh at me if you will. And don't blame it on the sangiovese. If anything, blame it on the poppies. Those brilliant poppies. And a language that sings into my ear..
2008-05-28 - I think that that's all for my spouting off for today. It was a daffodil day.
2008-05-27 - Ohhh so tired. I will improve.
2008-05-27 - Such an awful day. But I'm working through it.
2008-05-27 - Not a good show at all.
2008-05-26 - Almost too tired to go on, even though I have been sleeping lots lately. Just like the mice, I don't deal well with change.
2008-05-26 - So maybe I should think more?
2008-05-26 - Off I trot to work.
2008-05-26 - Have a great day!
2008-05-26 - Have a great day!
2008-05-25 - I wish this tummy pain would go away. I hope that mint tea helps.
2008-05-25 - So much to think about. I am so impatient. I must not lose hope though, or waver in my determination to get out of here. :)
2008-05-25 - Chocolate is the medicament!
2008-05-25 - Oh the brain is complicated and yet so predictable

2008-05-21 - Just a silly ramble in the morning
2008-05-21 - OK...so I'm sort of becoming a normal abnormal person. And I'm thinking about an Italian donation. :)
2008-05-20 - So should I just go and \"get some stuff?\" Maybe I should ask for an Italian donation. (Just checking to see if you were listening. ;))
2008-05-19 - I'm very sad. But I feel that this is a positive sadness. It is a learning sadness.

2008-05-18 - Lessons listed. Pictures two entries back!

2008-04-15 - sad, honestly
2008-04-15 - I have learned my lesson. Hope wounds.
2008-04-14 - Oh when I tumble I roll down a ravine. I really did that once. I was running in the morning - I am NEVER good in the morning - and my boyfriend didn't at first miss me and then eventually looked behind when he realized that I was no longer with him.
2008-04-13 - good grief i hope it's not something ulcerous
