Today I'm off to a wedding just outside Toronto. I have a dress and shoes and a haircut for the occasion, but I suspect that I will look like a pregnant yak. (NO, I'm NOT pregnant, it's just a nice visual for you.)

It's sunny today but a little chilly, and I'm hoping that my Guess dress will be warm enough, as I don't currently own a jacket.

I've had my two cups of tea this morning and am about to venture out for my walk in my quiet tree-lined neighbourhood. Maybe this will wake me up. I wish I didn't feel so tired all the time! At least I've had my leisurely weekend morning, which is my favourite part of the week...

Last night I met up with all the girls from my past work life. It was so wonderful to talk to them and see what they're up to now and just be girly and laugh.

I miss that comraderie. Starting a new job is tough. It takes time to make those friendships. Sometimes it's lonely at lunchtime, you know?

I made plans for a Lord of the Rings marathon weekend, talked about my new job, my new apartment and relationships. It was so easy and I miss that.

I got home and had a long talk with Alex, who was very sad. I realized that I get so involved with other people's problems, because I really FEEL them. I feel the pain and the injustices and I feel sick to my stomach, just hearing about them. I want to DO something to make it better. And I can't.

Then I lay in bed, thinking about how lucky I am; how many great and wonderful things I have in my life...

I have amazing friends who inspire and support me. A good job and a clean apartment in a great city. A family who loves me. A good education and the sense to use it. Talent. Relatively good health. Experiences and an inclination for adventure.

Sure, some horrible things have happened to me. But that's the nature of life. I've gotten through those things and it all worked out somehow... and put me in this lucky time and place in my life.

I might be a socially prescribed perfectionist.

What about you?

Last night I visited my brother at the Shouldice Hospital. Although he was in a bit of pain, it was still nice to see him.

Kendra took me. It was really good to hang out with her again. I miss her.

Monday morning lip gloss marks on my coffee cup.

My eyes are still filled with sleep.

My mind is still singing with the weekend:
...drinks with old work mates, having someone take care of my drunk ass, shopping with my mom and stopping to eat ice cream in the sun, assembling my new desk so I can use my computer (~throws kisses to computer~), waking up to a glorious Sunday morning and going for a long walk/run in my lovely neighborhood, meeting a friend for more shopping and finding her the perfect shirt, meeting another friend for dinner in the Beaches, meeting with yet another friend to help her out with her website before heading home, probably a bit too late...

...only to wake up early on a windy grey Monday to start all over again, drinking coffee and reading the daily health news in a quiet office...
