Things I did today.
I find it a little difficult to start sharing again like that. I don't know what to share about, or what matters to anyone. I suppose blogging is really a kind of self-gratification; letting people in bit-by-bit into things which might not bother them at all, but which you'd like them to know anyway, which you'd like them to learn about you.
Someone adequately put it- "my mind drives me crazy". I happened to chance upon an open diary of a 19 year old single mum with a 2 year old daughter, entitled "life and times of a teenage mum". It put things into perspective.
I went with Christine and pierced my right upper ear today after 2 yrs of putting it off. It seems to take a certain kind of trauma in my life to make me do stuff like that. To make me remember certain things. The belly ring was due to a night at AE, though it's now only a scar to show for. When the event overwhelmingly shadows the hesitance and contemplation of something as totally trivial as getting a ear pierced, I realise I do not need to waste any time and effort pondering over it. Carpe Diem.
Got that pair of slippers with mushroom prints on it. Literally slipping back into an old shoe. No need to endure unnecessary physical pain just to look good in high heels for the world.
Wondered again why Paterson is pronounced as Patterson.

I am glad that you had a good day. Is that as painful as you did on your belly? I hope that i can see your ear soon:)

paterson or patterson doesnt really quite matter. pronounciations are but pronounciations. and forms of spelling similarly. trivial or not, they are read and perceived and felt as according to the minds of those who read it. for the mayor of paterson, he reads paterson differently now, or maybe its just a fragment of what is left of the mayor who resides within himself.
I like reading your writing so pls do continue to blabber on....:)
