Back

Got back home ok, really late last night. Am scurrying around like a demon today, trying to get cleaned up and caught up on things--tons of laundry, mail/bills, stuff to be put away, etc. Cats are whining for attention, and Bebop is being extra ADHD than usual. ^^;;

Anyway, hi, *hugs* to all, more later (and yeah, I'm really bummed about having to leave Ma, Dave, and Seattle in general. :p ).p

Lemming! *glomps*

Many, many thanks, Lem-hon! :D Yeah, just opened your package as I was going through the pile o' mail here--and it's really, really pretty! I just love images/art like that--and yep, dig anything related to kanji muchly. :)

I'm going to love looking at that much, once I get it up on a wall. Now I need to find a decent frame for it. ^__^ *glompshugs* Love ya bunches! I'll have to show this to James when he gets home from work...

*dives back into her 'to-do' list**

So...

Finally finished the stuff I wanted/needed to do today. Well, except I never did get to doing the last edit-stuff on the remainder of Anj's novel. Guess I'll work on that this weekend. Oh, and there's that last load of laundry in the dryer I gotta put away. But the rest is done, I guess. Finally.

Now I'm just sitting here a sec, getting caught up on online stuff. And it's kinda hitting me that this is a very mundane way to be passing into the new year. I don't even have the time to hang out on AIM and 'party' that way--after all, I need to get up early tomorrow, as we're spending the whole day with Anj and Gina doing a BGC 2040 marathon. So here I am, me here, James over on his computer, the cats wherever they wanna be, with little noise except other peoples' fireworks and old songs on my iTunes (formerly Kix-Don't Close Your Eyes and Bangles-Hazy Shade of Winter, now Pet Shop Boys-It's a Sin)

I wanted to have some resolutions done, or have something witty or meaningful to say, or have put together a haiku or two that reflect what I'm thinking and feeling right now...but as usual, I didn't seem to leave myself time to think of anything like that. I didn't even post about the last couple days in Seattle--though I guess I will get a chance to do that eventually, these next couple days.

But in a way, I guess this all kind of sums up the core of me for this past year, and for those years to come: many ideas and good intentions, little execution or followthrough; a dabbler in many things, a completer of little.

Anyway, happy 2003. May it be what we hope, and not what we fear.

Out with the old, in with the...not as old. *starts Metallica's Unforgiven II* Oyasumi nasai.
