i was gasping for alonetime.
Feb. 6th, 2004 08:46 amI have been up all night, but not by choice... I was just about to go to sleep when my mom came bursting into my room to tell me that she was getting ready and driving up to Cleveland ASAP, because my grandfather just went into the hospital. He has a panoply of heart problems and has even died (and been revived) a couple of times, has a pacemaker, etc etc, so this is probably one of his usual scares. She asked me to stay up until she left, for a really silly reason: she needed to leave some cash with me and had to go to the ATM to get it, but didn't want to turn the van off to unlock/relock the front door to leave the money in the house. So I had to be awake until almost 7AM just to receive the grocery money and lock the door behind her!
After she left, I sat in a chair to watch TV for a while, and settled on a pay-per-view of I Capture the Castle, which I've been yearning to see for months. The very vague hints at racism in the book were entirely ironed-over in the movie, and aside from a few small details, the movie was very true to the book. But I couldn't stay in the chair. I became very frustrated with the layout of the room. She's let the living room become very messy, and the way the furniture was arranged was uncomfortable and illogical. So I started putting things in piles (her books from all over the room piled on her bookshelf, tools she used to hang the curtains near where they need to go downstairs, old catalogues and newspapers that have been piling up = into a stack to be thrown away). Then I moved the furniture. I still don't LIKE it, but it's a little bit better down there now.
I'm torn between being very hungry and very sleepy. Have some things I need to do today, and am frustrated by the idea that going to sleep now will probably put me out of commission until 6PM. Want to stay up and do more housework, but don't have the energy for it. I don't understand how someone can be such a psycho about whether or not the dishes are clean or in the "correct half" of the sink, but let papers pile up like that. I've got at least the weekend to myself here, and I'm going to take advantage of it.
