a good day.......

usually mondays suck, and this one did as well. but having switched my "late day" to monday from wednesday, that allowed me to combine two bad things into one: mondays and late days. it was busy of course, but at least the rest of the week is regular hours, and that's always something good to look forward to.

had an interesting conversation this afternoon. hadn't spoken to charlotte since late last year, and today she got in touch with me about my boy mystic. i've been operating under the assumption that "no news is good news", and so if i'm not being contacted by her about him, then he must be doing well. so today when i saw her text, my heart sunk for a moment b/c i thought she was going to have some bad news about mystic. but thankfully, it wasn't bad news, more an update about his ever-changing health. it wasn't great news, but he's just having some issues, this time with his tail. he's always had a spot/plac on his tail, and it's evidently gotten a bit worse, with him messing with it. so, he'll have some "tests" to sort it out, and she was letting me know he might have to be put under for some of these procedures, which is a bit concerning b/c of this age. but hopefully he'll be just fine. it was nice speaking to her again after so many months, i will admit. timing is noteworthy, but i'll save that for another day.

thinking about checking out a "neo-soul" place tomorrow from an invite on fb.........not sure if i feel like doing so on a tuesday night, as my "out" nights are usually wed and on. but might be fun to break the tuesday monotony. i've been going to this lil joint for house music on some wednesday nights, but unfortunately the though the music is pretty good, the crowd leaves a lot to be desired. it's destined to be a "lounge" scene more than anything else, which isn't bad b/c i don't mind relaxing with a drink or 4, with some friends to some good music. this week marks the beginning of the wmc in south beach, and i always reflect on the great great times bani and i had the couple of times we headed down there. it seems ages ago, and yet so fresh in my memory, and so every year it i always wonder about heading back there, on my own with others. i'd like to think i'll make it there again eventually. i even nag her every now and then about considering to go again with.........

and then there's jamaica.........already march is here.
