Feb. 8th, 2005 01:30 pmI just ordered a floral funeral arrangement online (a work-related thing) and was not once but twice offered the opportunity to add "balloons, bears and chocolates" to my order. This was a floral arrangement marked as specifically for funerals. My experience with funerals is thankfully rather limited, but somehow I doubt it is customary to add balloons, bears and chocolates to funeral arrangements. Though I have to admit I was momentarily tempted to add some of those jokey "RIP" and "Over the Hill" balloons.
I am sickish, but dance class was good last night. Some days it's easy to push yourself, and I felt happy pushing myself last night. We worked on stuff that will be immediately useful for me, beledi taqsim movements and slow veilwork. I am pretty sore today. Slow controlled movement is much harder than lots of fast movement. During class I gave into group buying frenzy temptation and ordered a sparkly top and some mesh gauntlets from L. Rose. At least it's a little cheaper than usual with the bulk discount--I think basically I got the gauntlets for free. And I can justify those as being useful for both dancing and regular clubbing.
Yesterday morning and this morning were very strange, not getting medications and food together for Pan. I'm glad that most of the time we didn't have to force him to eat, because feeding him was a way to spend time together. I still haven't thrown away the old medications, though I guess I should. Seti is mopey. We were looking at our schedules and thinking about heading out to a shelter in mid-March, but now I am wondering if it wouldn't be better to make some time happen sooner than that. I guess I'm a little mopey too.
There were drunk people on the train at 9:30 this morning, on their way to the Patriots parade rally thing. They were very loud. Also, most of them wore way too much bad cologne.
