The soul has greater need of the ideal than the real for it is by the real that we exist, it is by the ideal that we live

Another weekend and HGF is here too!

I was kind of hoping this weekend would be a bit quiet. Not to be I think. Tonight I have to iron my sling (yes the right arm is still in a sling from last weekend's incident UGH!)and go out with friends because it's Pride!

yippee

note the lack of caps or exclamations

So I'm going out amongst 'em, and I'll smile and try to avoid the ones I know will be there that I don't want to see. I'll be dutiful I think it's something I need to do for me especially.

Then Saturday I have to go to the stables and get my tack. They no longer have room for it. ahem. That'll be a bit strained I'm certain.

Then since Merry Maids didn't come on Tuesday I have to clean the apt, which totally sucks under the best of conditions and I'm the one-armed man right now. Fuck.

I made my pottery suppliers mad by accusing them of not taking customer service seriously. I've gotten two emails and a letter. They're certainly taking me seriously that's for sure. I guess I'll go down there next weekend and buy something just to appease them.

Did I mention that I filed the petition for the name change since the judge has settled on what he'll allow it to be. He had this silly notion that I'd take my biological father's last name. Well, I don't guess it's that silly, but I'd spent over a year thinking about this very issue and what I want to do is put my Birth Certificate back to it's original condition, which does NOT include his name. I've never met him,probably never will,and though it'd be nice to take his name cause I wouldn't have to change the towels (the last initial is the same) it just doesn't seem ok nor correct to do so.

But in mid-July it should all be done. The publication of the notice has already started and I've paid all the fees, so here we go. I've told no one about this, no idea why, I just want it to be done before I bring it up. Everyone I know is going to have an opinion and I don't really care what they are, I've decided to do this, and that's that.

Saturday night I have to go to a dinner in honor of my brother's 40th wedding anniversary. I took them their present last night (an anniversary clock.) It'll be nice to sit at that table again. Especially since the crazies haven't been invited. Ah bliss, a martini and dinner in familial peace. I'm willing to bet no one asks me anything more controversial than "which gin do you prefer?"

So let's start with an appetizer-







Love
