while i'm lucid

my sister was in town on her whirl-wind tour, just like evita. we ate lots of ice cream, watched felicity twice a night, hung curtains and blinds, and enjoyed our week. we took the mom to see monster-in-law on mother's day, nothing in the way of ground-breaking cinema but not as bad as roeper & the fatman would lead you to believe. i laughed a lot, mostly at wanda sykes. i have a feeling jane fonda wasn't really acting much. saw a lot like love. i LOVED that movie. amanda peet being amanda peet, i leaned over to my sister after one scene and asked her how she could still hate amanda peet after that. she said it was easy. wednesday i finally got my car back, thursday was my surgery, so i haven't been able to drive it to see if it's okay. ten days off somehow turned into a month. hey, i'm not complaining. but today is day four of laying around doing not much of anything and i'm starting to feel like i'm losing my mind. so we'll see. i find something to watch on tv, then suddenly it's two hours later and i'm waking up with no memory of where the time went. or what i was even watching. i have watched an unhealthy amount of old episodes of the match game on GSN. charles nelson riley is my new hero. maybe that's just the percocet talking.
