is the word 'diary' better than the word 'blog'? probably not.

Pathetisad.

So, in the past couple of weeks, my Sidekick broke up with me and I somehow lost my Gucci eyeglasses. I mention the brand name only so you know that they were expensive. I liked them a lot. And now I can�t find my glasses, and it�s time to grade papers. I think I must have left them on the train from Trenton to Philadelphia when I went to sign my lease papers in Brooklyn? I didn�t realize I had lost my glasses until after I ordered the new Sidekick, and, given that I�m moving to New York, which is EXPENSIVE, and am about to endure more than two months of no steady paycheck, I�m thinking I probably can�t afford new eyeglasses right now. At least I was able to find my old glasses, which are bent and not entirely attractive and not quite the right prescription but better than nothing. Ugh. So there�s a lot of unsettling going on, what with the loss of cherished items and the having to move and the lunging forth into the uncertain future.

And then of course last week I took my cat to the vet not knowing that I wouldn�t be coming home with him. That one far outweighs the loss of a cell phone or eyeglasses. I know I made the right decision, but still, it is dawning on me slowly how much more difficult it is to do it this way, going to the vet not knowing Hans Blix (TCNTUNWI) was not coming home with me. I know you all know that he has been sick for awhile so it can�t have been a total surprise. But still. It�s different when you call to make the dreaded appointment with doom and then spend a day or so steeling yourself and spending those last hours with your cat. But when you aren�t sure why your cat seems sicker all of a sudden, and you go to the vet to get him checked, only to be told that he really isn�t well, and you have to make a decision�. well, that�s harder. I keep feeling like it�s time for me to go pick him up and bring him home now.

So, because of all that, I am not enjoying being in my house at all. I�m OK when I�m out with other people, or when people are here with me. But leave me in my house on my own and all you get is a sobbing-mess or a semi-catatonic couch-sitter. I even feel dread as I approach the house, on my way home from anywhere else. Living without animals is hard!
