man oh man what a week! i really wanted to call into halcyon's show today but was way too busy. had to tape the last episode of Star Trek Voyager for my future-ex-husband. spent all day at the library researching foundations that grant money to non-profit orgs in this state. it's so much fun to copy down addresses that have already been typed. why the fuck can't they provide this shit on CD? hey, maybe they'd pay me to put it on one ('specially since the fuckin' book was from '97). god, when i moved here they had 1990 phone books. yeah~
anyway, whew~ in Star Trek, seven & chikotay are seeing each other and someone from the future comes in and tells her that she's gonna die and it will hurt him, so the next day she tells him she doesn't want to see him anymore because he might get hurt if something happens to her. and he says that he can't shut off his emotions and loving someone is always risky, but well worth it. kinda like the situation we've all been dealing with this week, only nobody from the future bothered to tell us shit.
another odd thing: i lost a million dollars today. only i didn't really have it. you see, i have a huge painting by Edmund C. Tarbell, that i inherited strangely enough when my sister died (yes, of cancer) at 24, and i've been wanting to sell it. so i started calling around. a collector called me and told me it would be worth many thousands of dollars, but i began to look closely and couldn't tell if it was really paint under there. i told him to investigate, which he did. he called me back to say that the milwaukee art museum still has the painting, but sells repros of it, so that's what i've got. and then he threw in, "by the way, a painting by Tarbell as large as that would be worth well over a million dollars." i had to grit my teeth not to cry. all this time (7 yrs) i thought it was really a painting.
my future-ex had to remind me that i didn't really lose $1mil because i never had it. again, much like little life's lesson of the past week.
i wonder what june has in store for us...
