the small victories
So with no stereo, no tv, no computer, I am going through media withdrawals. I have read 4 books in the span of 3 days and my mind is starting to clear from the fog. Amazing how the imagination wakes up after being subdued for so long. Although I am reading a book set in London in the 1800s and so my dreams too have been placed in this setting. Strange to see friends of mine donning old frocks and caps. But alas, last night I was looking at the av cable to hook my video camera to my tv, then looked at my ipod. And I manged to hook my ipod to my tv so that I can use the tv speakers to play my music. A small victory to say the least but one that had me beaming with myself and startled by the notes and melodies filling the empty house. The sounds is not terrific, and I can feel that the tv is on (you know that sort of low buzzing feeling), so it definitely is not soothing, but it is sound, it is life. It is some sort of companion besides my books. I even bought more books to read, I know I am so close to packing and leaving, and I shouldn't buy anything heavy, but the words, the stories. My mind is hungry and it has been a week of rain and fog.
Oh other news my schedule is more than filled with going away parties and I have many Japanese speaches and newspaper articles to write. If ever I felt like a celebrity, now is the time.
With the hurricane of activity, two other very important loves in my life are also going through the same buzz and whirl. These two are so very dear that I feel like chaos in their lives causes tsunamis in my world, so come on guys, lets get through this!
To Peter, hang in there baby, make sure to run and get some excercise, oh and some coffee. It wont get any less hectic, but your body will adjust soon enough. Think pegging master of the universe and tiramisu! Your strength and love inspires me! I love you!
To Christina, things will sort themselves out soon, and your footwork will match both of your intentions, please remember to breathe and play in water. Even conch shells need to taste the ocean sometimes. Think of starfish and sea monsters, yummy food and play. You are beautiful and with an open heart, comes clarity. Rest, breathe, love, and hugs!
Alright, I have just been informed that I am going with my supervisor to make "something" with the 6th grade elementary kids this afternoon so I have to have my lesson for this afternoon planned before we go. Off I go to plan plan plan. Last actual class with these kids. I cant believe the end is now.
