Just a day on the calendar
Yesterday I did a big thing!
I had coffee with my High School English teacher from my Senior Year- the one that turned my opinion on English around, I hated it until I was in his class. He is also to credit for my grammar meltdowns when people use it incorrectly. Anyways I have been trying to make this happen for a good year and a half now?
My escalation of my hip surgery was my catalyst to be sure to get this coffee thing done too- he was just expecting us to sit and talk about my accident and recovery, which in the beginning we did- and then, I grabbed the Vera Bradly tote I had brought with me along with my purse, and pulled out the manuscript- all 106 pages double spaced of my recovery from the accident that should have killed me and asked him if 1) he would like to read it, 2) edit it and 3) tell me what he thinks about it. He gave me a big oh my wow face looking at it then was like totally of course.
Mission accomplished. Yes I never let him know I was even writing a book, and here I was handing him the whole thing. Now I've gotta get my other two copies out too. One thing at a time- getting that overwhelmed feeling again, plus these two I want to add letters too not just throw the book in an envelope. So if I set a goal of getting them out by Monday maybe that'll work?
Today I spent over an hour in the pool at PT, but my therapist and I did a terrifically horrible duet of The Flame by Cheap Trick which Lindz and I always sang in college, not particularly sober. When I went to leave I texted her and was like I just did a duet of our song, then was like and reminisced of our gateway desktops and limewire- fun times.
This substitute movie is stupid I hate it lol, I bought Serenity with Anne Hathaway and Mattew Mcionahey (never spell it) but I wanted to pay attention and yeah tired.
