The Thaw Begins

The thaw is in reference to my nasal passages. The dam has broken and the nose is dripping in an almost continual stream of liquid. This may sound gross, but it makes me feel much better now that I can breathe. On the other hand blowing my nose every five minutes is more draining then wishing I could breathe.

Its was hard to concentrate when my every thought was focused on the part of my head directly behind my nose. I kept imagining it as a dry lake bed cracked and peeling. Now the rains have come to bring relief.

I am in the middle of slowing bringing more and more of my stuff over to Brenda's place. My clothes have been there for the past few months and I even have them in my own dresser. Various music cds have been brought over as well and a few select plants.

Last night Brenda and I talked some more about us and what we want from one another. A history of previous boyfriends before me has been relayed to me. I was also told that I remind her of the guy that she saw throughout her college career. I resemble him not so much in a physical sense, but in my mannerisms. I guess this is good for me, because she was with him for three years. She said that it was his family that caused her to end it. So now I know about the college sweetheart, the farmer, the ex-husband and the state trooper.

There were still people in the park this afternoon even with the occasional drizzle coming down. The real heavy rain waited until my lunch hour was over.

I am really going to try to go to sleep early tonight with the hope that this should be the end of the cold. At least it has been six months since the last time that I was sick. Once a year would enough for me rather than every six months.

Must eat and then sleep.
