i am excited about tonight's show. the CD is done, we have reporters coming, my dad is driving down today from the bay area. i am realizing that i am just plain lonely and soul tired on top of it all. i just read alanna lin's april 10 blog on loneliness and for what it's worth it helps to know that others feel the same way. haven't slept much the last few weeks and my whole body is exhausted. the timing couldn't be better on the whole "taking care of myself" timeframe. it is a slow process to learn how to do it well, taking the day off tomorrow to hang out with my dad and just rest.
