Laundry done! Not much fun! Not much sun! A tasty bun! No one won! Have to run! Yesterday's memorial for ES stayed with me today. Kept thinking about what was said and the crowd of people that participated. Slept for several hours today--just conked out!

Don't recall last night's dreams. I know that I dreamed but have lost the details. Core and More class tomorrow. Weekend went faster and without too much down time with yesterday's memorial. Doing is better than stewing! Have a full week coming up. Let the good times roll!


Watched a tedious film tonight--3 Needles. It followed three story lines about how AIDS was spread in each of the three small communities. One was set in China, one in Montreal, and one in Africa. The stories were all three a bit difficult to follow and to know what was motivating the people involved.  In China, a woman came up with a scheme of collecting blood and reselling the plasma. Things worked out fine until she sold some contaminated plasma. In Montreal, a porn actor infects his partners but tries to hide the problem. For some strange reason, his mother tries to protect him by contracting the disease herself. Huh? In Africa, three nuns work with a small community, providing assistance, support and comfort. One of the villagers contracts AIDS and spreads it to others. One of the nuns makes a deal with a farm executive to have the man stopped. The overall effect (and maybe that was intentional on the parts of the film makers) was a sense of not wanting to watch the unraveling--just wanted to get it over. It was like experiencing someone scratching on a chalk board with their finger nails.
