you look so good when you're laughing you know

My thoughts are a random jumble.

I had the strangest dream last night that i was out on a date with Anthony Bourdain and i was terrified the whole time that i was going to have to eat some gelatinous, half-cooked, fatty, fleshy thing that i couldn't wrap my head around actually hanging out with him. The whole dream was me avoiding any place that looked like it might sell food, so much so that i woke up pissed off at myself that i missed an opportunity.

Valentine's weekend went by without remark. Well, there was that couple on sunday night that sat with their bodies angled away from each other and at the end of the meal she looked purposefully away while he sat with his face in his hands.

Eliza has had lice twice in the past few weeks. I think i have lice by proxy given all the head scratching going on.

I got the results of Toby's psycho-educational assessment last week and, as i expected, he scored in the gifted range for the majority of topic areas. Except for reading and writing which he scored exceptionally low. He has an official learning disability diagnosis which will allow him to receive the extra help he has so desperately needed for years. If i can get him through school without too much trauma i am sure he is destined for great things.

My lovely friend Kelly has continued to amaze me with her strength of character and ability to speak out and speak up on issues of race and equality.

Another good friend is in the finals of a contest to win a trip to BlogHer. Do me a favour and go vote for her.

I'm sorry for my random thoughts. Life has been awkward and tiring. My heart won't let my fingers find the right words to say everything i need to say. I am just letting it wait. Letting the skipping beats slow down.
