rejectomorphAfter being awake seven or eight hours Tuesday I became unable to keep my eyes open, so in early afternoon I took a nap. The nap, with a few brief interruptions, lasted until after six o'clock, and I got up and had another cup of orange juice and another glass of iced tea and another donut, just as though I were starting a new day. This new day was as sad as it had ben the first time around, though it included a dinner of canned tamales. I thought a lot of thoughts, all of which have vanished into the void. I'm now feeling tired again, even though I realize that I've slept for about a dozen of the last 27 hours. The tired is taking over. Also my neck is very sore.
Every day lately when I go to open LJ I expect it to be gone, and when I post I expect it not to work. I've noticed for the last several days that my ranking among journals has been creeping up, and my social capital as well. I don't think I'm getting more popular. I suspect that users more popular than me are disappearing, and I'm rising into the vacuum they've left. If they were simply being drafted or fleeing the country I expect they'd be able to continue posting somehow, so I think they might be getting arrested, or simply eliminated. It's got to be a scary time over there, and that makes me very sad. I don't think any of them follow me, but if they do I wish them well, and to be safe.
And rest in peace, Angela Lansbury. Her work brought me a lot of pleasure over the years. But that seems like another world now. I doubt we'll see the like of either of them again.
