My Intuition is broken

"What must I do? Where must I go? WHY IS HE REVERSING?!" Welcome to Driving102 - with me as the instructor and D as the (at the beginning) panicking student. Stop laughing! Contrary to popular belief, this is NOT a recipe for disaster. In fact, we did pretty well, all things considered - complete with retard_moments and everything. Today actually consolidated how much I really have missed D: nobody else can have an entire conversation with me in just one glance; or finish my thoughts before I've even voiced them. And there is no way in Pinus that I'd have let anybody else as skittish as that get behind the wheel of a car with me as a passenger - but I'm proud of her, she was 60km/h back in the groove by the final stretch.

I feel bad about not giving Ordinary Guy my full attention today. It's going to be a while till I next see him, and I spent most of the time today talking to Bob over the phone because she needed me to...I honestly worry about that child. I think a Mitch intervention is needed soon - she and Tasneem will give me grey hairs before my time!

Dex is in bed, comatose with the flu. I'm not sure if he even remembers what he said to me when I walked into his room - I'm not sure even I remember actually. Poor kid. I took him some chocolate mousse, but I don't think he'll even be able to taste it at all right now (and he's been craving it for about a year). I ended up slipping out quietly and depositing it in the fridge, and then spending the next ten minutes standing outside in the sunshine, discussing how men never do the jobs around the house that they're supposed to with his father.

I also attended an Alumni meeting - while I had to leave early and therefore missed half of it and the conclusion, I think it's pretty commendable what they're trying to do for their Alma Mater. At the same time, something about it, that I can't quite put my finger on, is bothering me. Which is not a very helpful feeling at all, considering that I can't actually define it. It's a young project, here's to hoping it achieves its goals.

I have an uneasy feeling tonight, despite my D-filled day sprinkled with Ordinary. I dislike these feelings, they're so vague. Right now, I think I'll drink my ginger tea and then read a little - The Other Side of Israel by Susan Nathan - very enlightening; it's going to be a long night.
