another song awaits you

I just read that a single cup of coffee can trigger a heart attack in less than an hour in those who fall into the one-or-fewer-cups-a-day category. Light drinkers are four times as likely to have a coffee-induced heart attack than excessive drinkers. So now moderation is bad? Like Mondays aren't difficult enough without headlines like that.

That was a truly eventful weekend.

I finished The Wanderer. The speech finished itself. My cousin finished the video. We partied.

In between, I ate a lot of chocolate because the favors included chocolate kisses and there seemed to be a lot of extras lying around. I also spent a lot of time at home, more consecutive hours than I have since I moved out. I hugged and kissed cousins and friends that I haven't seen in years, including my ex's parents, who seem wonderful and warm ten years ex post facto.

In between, there was sushi and Waiola's. And a lot of waiting. I have tried for an hour now to make a paragraph out of "waiting" but have deleted everything I've started to write. Not to get all Dickensian or anything but the waiting was the "worst" to the anniversary's "best" of times; I wish I could talk.

Waiting and wishing. That was my weekend.
