i went for brunch on sunday with kathryn, kolby, his friend kevin, adam and trish and megan. as always, i was first to arrive. i have to start mixing it up a little bit and being late, or at least just on time. i'm loosing my mystique. we sat and ate for 2.5 hours! we talked about all kinds of interesting stuff, politics a little, little girls growing up too soon and how those pressures don't seem to exist for me... that men really aren't sexualized at a young age, we talked about "dune" which i now want to read very much and get this: i talked about respiratory therapy to an attentive audience, none of who are in the field. that has NEVER happened before. it's always been, "respiratory therapy? what's that?" i tell them, they raise their eyebrows go, "oh ya." and either turn and walk away or change the subject or just turn and talk to someone else. everytime i thought someone would lose interest, someone else asked a question. it was divine. also, i know more than i think.
last night, i dreamt about bungee jumping again. the sky was a weird yellow. it was window. i had my hair down and it was whipping in my face. i told the guy i had done it before. unlike last time, this time i was so scared. i was worried about how to lift off and being spun around. why was i so afraid when it's something i've done before? once you are familar, fear is supposed to dissipate. i'll be thinking on this dream so awhile.
i ran yesterday. i ran to ben harper. it turns out he's a pretty good work out buddy. i used to just compile a playlist from what i have on the computer but my selection of what i like to run to is rapidly growing smaller. so i've taken to trying out cds. so far both ok computer and kid a by radiohead are awesome. (one more reason kid a is the greatest cd ever!) also, burn to shine by good ol' benny rocks too. today, i may try interpol's antics but we'll see. the plan is this: if i run everyday this week i get to eat the snicker's bar that's sitting on my dresser. and if i don't, i have to throw the damn thing out that window. so, i'm going for run right now.
i have 2 exams on thursday: NALS and PALS, and Specialized Patient Care. that tells you nothing so i'll tell you this; i don't suspect either will be easy. i hate tests.

My friend Kate and I are chronically early to concerts. We try to be late, but we never fail to be amongst, if not the first ones there.
Congratulations on an attentive audience! That has yet to happen to me. No one around here has a clue what a Special Care Counsellor is, and no one cares. These days...neither do I.
