Last week went by so fast I had to sit down with SML and recap where all of our time went. We were sitting in a hot tub at the gym, discussing where we could have possibly been on Monday night. The most practical way to piece my week together is to figure out which television shows I watched during the week, which is becoming more complicated since the advent of free television on ABC’s and NBC’s respective dot coms.
Another reason that I can’t fully remember last week is that I felt so incredibly sick and heavy-headed that it is possible I slept through it. I’d actually welcome that kind of circumstance, but it feels very unproductive to lose an entire week of your life. As it turns out, I went to my writing group on Monday and failed to post my entry on this website.
Before I started attending the writing group, I had this unwritten goal to write down all of my life stories that I feel need repeating. It’s kind of a dangerous thing to do, to write these things down, because I have literally blocked out certain events in my life because they curdle the fluids in my stomach when I think about them. I’m certain that I’m not the only person who feels this way; but then again, I might be the only person who gave their underwear away to a complete stranger in a ShopKo parking lot and lived to tell about it.
See. I just got that feeling in my stomach again.
One of my biggest problems, I think, is coming up with ways to put a humorous spin on things like, “I was stranded in Provo and the Provoan ring-leader stole a pregnancy test from Wal-Mart.” Is it funny that she stole from a Wal-Mart? Or is it funny because she managed to get pregnant hanging out with gay men? Eh. I’ll wait until next week to decide.
