little mee
wherever you go, there you are
i am sitting in a room. i am sitting in a pine panelled dorm in brigadoon, a roommate asleep in another single bed nearby. we are resting, i assume, in preparation for the new year celebrations, which are to begin this evening with the brigadoon follies, a spectacle i had planned to miss, but that now i think i will take in. not much sleep last night as the natives were restless below, but then this afternoon was for naps, so we shall see. and i intend to skip dinner this evening as something has got to give, other than my stomach. the abundance of food has not been agreeable.
once again, this has not been the vacation i had envisioned, and i shall do something about that beginning as soon as i return home, but it has been a nice one, anyway, and ever so much better than sitting at home. i can watch the world go by up close here, and impress upon myself that it is not just my location that isolates me, but me myself. the nicest times are when i have people around me, laughing, as when i drove us all to yarn circle; those are also the scarcest times. i must do something about that, too.
and my stomach, must do something about that. do. do. do.
here are some things to do:
eat well (!)
strengthen ankle
contra
watercolor and/or carve
plan little/middle class

flying to woolfcamp in santa cruz! a whole week in nocal for mee!!!
3 years
can it really be a three year anniversary when i don’t post here much anymore?
the week commences
i gto to brasstown with little trouble, although driving was another of those completely-on-faith experiences that, as they always do, worked out just fine in the end. i got first pick of the beds, met two of my roommates (both of whom are serious dancers,or so it would seem) and immediately repaired to the coffeerroom to geek out. the geek refuge. i checkedrto see if i could take pics and vids, set up britekite to show me here, and here i am. dinner is at 6, with a short meeting thereafter and then the first open dance of the evening.
gulp.
my foot hurts. the one that always hurts these days, but it’s really hurting some now. probably from its immobility in the car for 10 hours? at any rate, it may prove (in?)convenient. i did bring a rehearsal skirt, at least i remembered that far. i wonder if i will spend the week in the corner? at least i plan to end my evenings by posting here and uploading whatever i’ve gotten that day.or that’s the plan.
so here i am. just like when i’m home. only i’m here.
had to sit out the open dance as my foot has suddenly swollen up to grapefruit size. now what?
