It's been a week since I've done any dancing--classes aborted by vacations and accidents. I've started the process of taking classes with RSB group--but that'll take a little time to get underway. Meanwhile, I feel like I'm falling backward--not moving enough. I need to--no, must get to the gym. Can push off a bit of the malaise--push it out and replace it with some movement.

This layoff from dancing underscores just how important it has been--not doing it leaves me de-energized and tweaky. I feel lost, tired, antsy, and all sort of sensations--my mind is frantic and filled with anxious thoughts.

Dreamt last night a vivid dream--about working with a group of people on a technology gadget. It involved the creation of a device that could wirelessly handle a task--one that required a lot of manual intervention using the older technologies. We were celebrating the successful tests on the device--and we were at a cafe eating dinner. I had to go to the toilet--and I got lost in a maze of corridors. I finally came to an exit door--and I pushed it open and stepped into an alley. The place was filthy--others had used the area for relief and the ground was covered with human waste. There was a beefy guy standing off to the side--smoking a cigarette. I remarked on how filthy the place was--he grunted and took a puff of his cigarette. I awoke about then--feeling strange from the atmosphere of the dream.

It's almost dinner time--I had a big lunch (and a Frap and pastry later). I'm not all that hungry--but I feel compelled to eat something (probably will do an apple and pudding).

My ex stopped by and took off with our daughter's family for a swim (and perhaps more)--which tweaked MD when she awoke from a lengthy nap and found them come and gone. They should be getting back soon--and will have to deal with MD's feelings of being abandoned. Time marches on--and it does not!
