it's been quite a day or so. i lose track. yesterday we found out that Tim, father of Jeremy and Daniel, was in ICU in Durham NC. while the basic procedure went well, and the arteries are cleared, there are breathing issues which means a longer stay with the higher level of care. jeremy is heading back for the weekend, and probably Tim's brother will come in from ohio as well. that pretty much derailed me for the day, but it looks like things are doing better than can be expected. he winked in response to a question and squeezes hands and wiggles toes on request.
just heard on the news that one filipina may be deported because her immigration papers are not in order. after 23 year relationship with another woman, and 12 yr old twin boys. prop 8 sucks. if they had been a man and a woman, it would not have been an issue. the rights are not the same without the legal back-up.
this is my weekend to LA. and now i've added the may 16 trip to NY.
adam called this morning and we had a really wonderful brief chat. he is doing some kind of training yesterday and today, is having fun, doing well, etc etc. it will be good to see him and david and julia and audrey in 6 weeks.
woo hoo! they are appropriating Bernie Madoff's property. that is totally the least the feds can do. now the report is how credit cards are cancelling people's accounts and revoking any earned miles or reward points that have accumulated. so much for loyalty. after 23 years even. omg. this is ridiculous. but perhaps we have not seen the last of shenanigans.
i remembered to make photocopies of some pages from the prayerbook binder to take to group on monday. it is our last session before the 2 week break, conveniently located around passover and easter. i have volunteered to bring massive amounts of charoseth to the seder. i love pesach. and this year, more than any before, is steeped in such meaning and significance. i need to start getting out my books so i can do a modicum of preparation.
ok i can't take any more of the news. time for bed. tomorrow is another day.
