Ode to the Garage
It was arranged that I go home early from my first night at work on Wednesday night. I protested stating I'd leave only if Amy, my NM, told me to go and she did an hour later. By the way, it makes a lot of sense to send me home, being only 1 week s/p appendectomy. SO...they replaced me at 11pm with my good friend Gloria. I called Dan around 1:00am saying I was headed home. I waited for the security shuttle to get to my car and then drove away from the lovely hospital where I work. End of story? I know, I know it is another boring go nowhere Erin story, but eh?Anyway, when we were shopping for houses, I had a couple of perks on my list one being a garage. During the ice storm in 2002, I lost my rear windshield to a massive pine branch. I kinda didn't want that to happen again.
Boy, is this disjointed. Aren't you guys lucky? It's like you ae really listening to me speak.
So, around 1:45am when I get home and pull into the garage. I feel very safe. Very very safe actually. I closed the garage door while still in the car and without any paranoia entered my home where Danny boy was sleeping. Weird thing being a weakish female driving alone in the wee hours. Your mind wanders. Did I mention I love my garage?
I thought about writing this entry yesterday morning, but it didn't happen instead I played on my new gmail account.
I also went to lunch with my girlfriends, Lena and Bilja. They make me feel old or (a better word) settled. My life is so simple compared to theirs. I love my simple life, and I'm glad I no longer obsess about my place in the world or whether my career runs my life. I'm happy, and I have other things to obsess about instead like babies and possibly getting sick even when I'm well and my most favorite person, Dan. It was a good time though and I love spending time with them.
