Jan. 19th, 2005 07:36 amRegistration for adult summer camp had closed by the time Sarah called. i found this out because i had sent the director an email asking about it. She is on a waiting list because of her phone call, but either she didn't hear/remember the complete message, or just didn't think to tell me. Now i am saddened. I will keep my fingers crossed that she gets in. She is so looking forward to it. i guess it will be a tough lesson learned if she doesn't get to go this summe.
On the other hand, her perserverance has paid off at the dances. She is going mall walking this weekend with a man she has met, and they have a movie date next Tuesday night. They will be driven, so that is one concern lifted. On the one hand, i am really feeling good about all of this. On the other, her in her last relationships, her choices have not always been the best. She has been going to a relationship group for nearly a year now, so i guess we shall see if she has picked up anything. i am trying not to be concerned that she will jump into something. She has mentioned her committment to Mother and for that i am grateful. Now if Mother can just keep her mouth shut, there may be a chance. i hope the new guy will sort of offset the possiblity of no camp. Maybe we can get her into a winter camp.
The weather is still grey. This, i'm sure has something to do with my dour attitude. If the sun doesn't shine soon, people may die. Even the dhow parade this morning didn't do the usual trick of brightening my day. i guess because they couldn't sail off into the sunrise. There is some strange black bird floating out on the water this morning. It seems much larger than what i usually see. But i can't hold the binocs steady enough to get a good read on it so i can look it up. i keep hoping to see seals, but that isn't happening. Maybe the little cove is too filled in since the earthquake and there is not enough water for them to feel safe.
The big equipment has been moved from the road work on the other side of Gulf Road. There is one lane still closed, i imagine the whole road will be repaved at some point. i had a dream last night that there was an auto accident right out front. i just checked. It was a dream. Strange that i remember that. A non-arab man in a blue camero centered his car smack into a light pole. The pole fell on the car, but apparently he wasn't hurt because i remember looking out the window and seeing him trying to move the light pole. The car was facing the wrong direction for the way it went up on the median. Even in my dreams i don't know how these accidents happen. One of life's mysteries not soon to be answered.
Yes, Virginia, i just got a letter from my SIL telling me that in fact, the reason my brother and she moved to Laguna Nigel was to partake in the annual Amtrac mooning in July. They have even begun to iniate my niece. NOT! But i got a kick out of sending them the link.
To work, to work, to work. Sometimes it is a boring thing to have such a strong puritan work ethic. Why can't i just be a lazy bummette?
