i have a night tonight all to me. no plans. i want to have a long soaky bath, and i need to pack for the weekend, and i’m hungry, and i should be cleaning a little, and i need to go to bed early. it’s 8:30ish, i just got home from work an hour ago. i don’t think i’ll have time to do everything. by the time i make and eat dinner i’ll have to pack, and then it will be time for bed.

i’m feeling very selfish right now. i think it’s the ungroundedness of not having been home much in the past weeks and not being completely at ease with all the agreements in my relationship with my concubine, but also not being completely sure how to best create that ease. plus the demands of work, shambhala (which i’ve been letting slip even though it’s probably most helpful to keep at it right now), and just keeping up a social life.

this weekend away is going to be just what i need. babies and dogs in the outside. all i would need to make it perfect are some power tools! … (and have my concubine along) …

to dinner. eating always makes the world easier to face.
