Allie and I went for a walk and talked about our
tendency to vegetate. I whined that the weeks and months I spend in the same
place, emotionally, creatively, developmentally are getting longer and more
frequent. I was desperate to make it sound like my life didn’t have much
meaning in an attempt to scare Allie into doing more with her time but, I wasn’t
telling her lies. I really do feel static and unproductive.
We made suggestions for each other to get
ourselves moving again. Allie told me I should start blogging again.
Okay.
This kind of feels like that scene from Kill
Bill where Beatrix Kiddo wills herself to wiggle her big toe. It’s a start. My
toe is moving. Now I have to get the rest of me to follow suit.
It’s nearing the end of May so I think a post a
day until the end of June is a decent goal.
I’m predicting pictures of what I had for
dinner and single sentence descriptions of what Julia wore to school (her burgundy Under Armor sweatshirt because it was in the ’40s this morning – unreasonably
chilly for this time of year).
But it’s okay. It’s all good. I’m just wiggling
my toe.
