DAY 75

I forgot it was Passover. Next year in Jerusalem.

I SWEAR

I did not predict that accident on Wisconsin Avenue.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, BABY

It was five years ago this month that I adopted my beloved big pig, who was then my beloved baby pig.

DAY 74

TWO DEATHS

MENSA member and DC resident Keren Coxe March 26th.

Family friend Mary Despo Argianas March 19th. Donations in memory of Miss Argianas can be made to http://www.snapofpa.org

ADOPT A PIG!

March is Adopt A Rescued Guinea Pig Month.

DAY 73

Holy Week is starting out in a fittingly grim way, weatherwise at least.

YAY!

I aced my online Internet Savvy course!

THE CHERRY ORCHARD

Perfect for the cherry blossom festival: http://www.drama21c.net/writers/chekhov/cherryorchard.htm

I can relate to the characters in too many ways.

PALM SUNDAY

Today is Palm Sunday. Didn't realize why it was so important to my grandmother until I found out last night that my great-grandmother (Grandma's mother) was laid out that day.

CHERRY BLOSSOM TIME

The national cherry blossom festival starts today.

DAY 72

Forgot to mention the divorce yesterday. Not mine, but still affecting multiple parties.

WEEK 13

Weather good one day, bad the next. Same as my business. The healthcare bill passed. Even though I’m not happy with it, violence and threats of it are not the way to make yourself popular

DAY 71

I swear I work with one of George Noory's shadow people.

DAY 70

It's twilight time: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gKeoCpW4XVU&feature=related

Ok, somewhere in the world it is.

DAY 69

There is something so comforting about the smell and feel of a diner. Especially at this hour of the night.

PROJECT PERCOLATOR

DAY 68

BAD PIG STEW: http://picasaweb.google.com/sally.hurley/TheStewPot?feat=directlink#

DAY 67

"How 'bout you build towards makin' some fuckin' fries?"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A6OselVRTsM&feature=related

Wanda Sykes

I, too, would like to think whatever I am doing now is all building towards something.

DAY 66

ALKOHOL

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSR8naOqFbM

I have not had a drink since Mardi Gras, yet I deal so much with drunks and make my money off them. Should I feel guilty?

DAY 65 "HAPPY PEOPLE PASS MY WAY"

Barry Manilow

So do a lot of unhappy-looking ones, even on a weekend in this beautiful weather. Makes me happy that I'm NOT part of a couple.

DAY 64 SPRING

Has sprung.

WEEK TWELVE

The weather has improved greatly and my financial situation has improved slightly.

DAY 63

MAKING HAY

While the sun shines. And giving massages, readings, etc.

DAY 62

THE YELLOW BANANAS

At Starbucks looked so much like summer. The free ice tea wasn't bad, either.

DAY 61

ST. PATRICK'S DAY

It seems a lot of my work involves dealing with drunks.

DAY 60

TIRED

And cold but more optimistic than I was when I woke up.

DAY 59

Filled out my census form, but not sure how much faith I have in it.

NEW MOON

Tonight (March 15th) is a new moon. Make a wish on it!

DAY 58

CUTTING THE CHEESE

Or rather, cutting the chase: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/35835957/ns/world_news-europe/?gt1=43001

DAY 57

CHOCOLATE BUNNIES ON THE HORIZON:

http://woman.catholicexchange.com/2010/03/08/3016/

WEEK ELEVEN

Lent is about half over. Not gaining much weight, probably losing. We are expecting gale force winds and a couple inches of rain this weekend, enough to wash away any remaining ice and snow.

REPORTER KICKED OUT...

...of Sean Penn press conference. Sorry I wasn't there: http://newsbusters.org/blogs/lachlan-markay/2010/03/12/sean-penn-kicks-out-reporter-challenging-him-rectal-cancer-remark

DAY 56 THESE FORTY OR SO DAYS OF LENT

See http://catholicexchange.com/2010/03/12/127985

I want to know when does Lent END? If I give up something for Lent starting Ash Wednesday, when can I enjoy it again? Every Sunday during Lent? Holy Thursday? Holy Saturday at noon? Easter Sunday at midnight?

DAY 55

BLAH

I'm tired.

DAY 54

THANK G-D FOR BOOZE

Not that I'm drinking it. To the contrary. But it makes other people so much more generous with their money.

DAY 53

IT'S A GREAT DAY...

...for a protest. There was a huge health care demonstration going from DuPont Circle to "M" Street, right past my studio. During a massage. So these assholes blocked the entrance to at least one healthcare professional's building and made a racket during her massage. Nice going, guys.

But at least I made some money hustling readings.

DAY 52

AND THE WINNER WAS

Went to the DC Film Society Oscar party last night, was treated like a princess. Liked what the winners said about not giving up on dreams. Also liked Alec Baldwin and Steve Martin's spoof on Paranormal Activity:

DAY 50

Wow, 50 days without starving.

WEEK TEN

Last Saturday Chile had an earthquake that literally rocked the world. And will probably send up fruit prizes worldwide, or at least in America.

NEW AGE PERVERT

A couple days ago a guy asked me for a massage. He asked if I minded massaging his glutes and I got suspicious. Then he started babbling about seeing an acupuncturist, saying his groin chakras were messed up and his naturopath told him he carried his tension in his pelvic area. He insisted he wasn’t looking for sex, it’s just that he was from California. Funny, my client directly before him was from California and wasn’t asking for a hand job.

DAY 49

Darn that fish!

DAY 48

MEDICAL QUESTION :

Why does "psoas" sound like "sore ass?"

DAY 47

Wow, my appetite has really decreased. Which, I hope, is a good thing.

A COOL SITE

DAY 46

"THAT WEIRD CATHOLIC PSYCH TRIP"

DAY 45

Believe it or not, I first saw this on Catholic Exchange:
