23 July
And today The Raccoon came back! Hooray hooray hooray!
I had a dream the other night that I overslept until after 5p the first day she came back, because I forgot to set the alarm, and I had another dream on another night where I got in big trouble for everything that I didn't do last week, no matter how many many things I did do, but everything was fine.
Do I have a couple of issues or what?
The weather is shitty again, though, it was so nice and not too warm, this past week, but now it's hot and nasty and horrid.
According to The Raccoon, is rained all the time she was in Florida. So when she was in Florida, the weather was crap, and when she came back here the weather was crap.
"You are a Weather God. You create good weather whenever you leave a place."
"Maybe--it's rained my last three vacations, I've hardly seen a sunshiny minute."
"They should pay you to leave places, you could make a good living."
"Never a vacation without rain."
"What about Mexico in, what, '98?"
"Yeah, that was the last good one, really."
"And what was different about that one? You didn't bring your daughter! Maybe she's the Weather God!"
"Well, I'm going to Puerto Rico on a long weekend in September, I guess we'll find out then!"
And then, the best part, was that I worked like a coolie all last week, "All Emergencies, All the Time, We Never Close" being my motto, and I was taking care of them by myself, doing two jobs that felt like six, and now she's back so we can take care of the crises together, and it was the easiest day imaginable, all calm and quiet and nobody threatening to repossess the microscopes in Phoenix or turn off the power, gas, water or phones anywhere. Aaaahhhh...
It'll get bad again, as is its wont, but my heavens, did I need a day like that.

You feel a bit overextended today as you survey the many activities which seem to be calling for your attention. Make priorities.

"I was worried right away, it just took me six days to call!"
