Alone

I have a hard time convincing myself to run errands alone. Once I start driving I feel better - yeah, I'm the girl listening to the classical station at full volume - but the concept of spending an hour or two running errands, by myself, is daunting. No one to talk to? How will I survive?

Last night I drove to Seward Park to buy new dog food (Avoderm, which should help his skin and coat), then to the local Safeway to pick up milk and cereal. I have another grocery run to make later this week (using an actual list) and as a package to mail. Maybe I'll be brave on Saturday and do both.

Other than the errands mentioned above, it wasn't a very productive evening. I finished a book I've already read twice and talked with Cass online. Come to think of it, the talk was productive: I'm making quality people one of my priorities, and Cass has quality. (We made tentative plans for next next Tuesday.)

Richard has school tonight, so I'm going to take the opportunity to leave work a half hour early, get off the bus at Henderson, and walk home. Forced exercise, hoo-rah! After I wheeze in the door I'll let Ned out for love and vacuuming. Then, maybe, some meditation...if it's not too late in the evening.
