i haven't slept right in two days. at midnight last night i was up doing my nails. fell asleep for a while. at 1:30 i was up playing with my cats. at 2:30 i was plucking my eyebrows and cleaning the bathroom. it took half a xanex and most of a rosary to make me fall asleep. and here i am, up at 10:30. woo. hoo.

*****************************************************

so about the rosary: i'm not catholic. not even christian. but i think the words are beautiful, and somehow the repetition helps me calm down. i used to say the rosary with my grandmother while she lived with us; for some reason it makes me feel safe. and for going to sleep, it's even better than counting backward from one hundred.

*****************************************************

no news yet. mom goes to the doctor on tuesday, so we might know something by then. i know it's useless to worry, but somehow i just can't help it.

*****************************************************

today i'm taking portrait shots of my youngest niece. she's so wonderful. she's just starting to sit up, and she babbles constantly. she's just perfect. i can't wait to photograph her.

ok i'm going to drag my sorry ass off to the shower and try to shake off the lethargy.
