My heart is drenched in wine
May. 28th, 2002 08:47 amHave you ever had a night where you wished you were a drinker? I mean if you're not a drinker, have you ever thought to yourself, "Man I'd love to get smashed tonight and just make the world go away"? I had that night last night The fact that my roommate had both Scotch and Tequila on hand did not help the matter. Fortunately I have enough common sense to realize that not only would it not make the world or problems go away, it would also make me wretchedly ill this morning.
Sometimes being ridiculously pragmatic really sucks.
So when I turned on the radio this morning and Norah Jones was singing "Don't Know Why" I had to wonder if the gods were trying to tell me something. I swear there are songs that become, during certain periods of my life, my theme song. That one's my current one, as she sums up everything I'm feeling right now in her gorgeous, hypnotic voice.
"My heart is drenched in wine,
But you'll be on my mind...forever."
I think I may have to go home and listen to that one all the way through tonight. I can do this without issues tonight in my living room because the roommate is out of town until Saturday. I feel as if I should have some wild, crazy, zany plans for the evening, but I may make it as far as the gym, then take out the trash and call it a day. Yeah, the exciting life of a single gal in the Silicon Valley. Woo-hoo.
At least the weekend was mostly nice. I must thank mallen for introducing me to yet another fabulous restaurant and for inviting me to see "Insomnia", which is quite good. I never would've even seriously considered seeing the film if not for him. He seems to have a real knack for coming up with activities that make spending time with him just perfect.
Got to spend some time at the Chris' place for their shindig, though h0h0's health took a turn for the worse and we had to leave rather abruptly. It did give me time to stop at the grocery store and pick up some much needed supplies for the both of us so that was good. And then yesterday I got to spend some much needed time with cyranocyrano and we finally got to do some Tai Chi together. I'm afraid my balance is not quite as good as it should be, but the dancing seems to have helped with that to some degree. Go me.
Sorry to start the week on a bit of a downer, guys, I don't know what it is about long weekends that tend to depress me so. Perhaps I just need to structure my time a bit better. Lesson learned.
