just Hi!

Today I am not crying. Even though I slept only an hour last night, I am not crying. Even though my new home health aide cannot really understand me, I am not crying. Actually, I am shouting, but no one seems to hear or understand what I'm trying to convey.

Maybe it's the sun and the warmth. And maybe, today, it was a little bit fun to propel my chair with my feet. I run a little forward and fire up the hamstrings. Backward, and the quads get going. Witnessing all this, a famous choreographer/artist neighbor offers to push me, then brings a couple amazing books to my door, which is answered by my lovely home health aide (because I'm still in the park), who misgenders the artist.

Problems everywhere, right?

I was gonna skip today because I'm busy preparing for a dharma talk next week, no easy feat since I can't talk. I've been given permission to borrow other voices, and though I have no idea what I'm going to say it's a little bit fun to plan an innovative accommodation.

And that's it, just this brief report on how things change, and how fun can be found in the strangest places if you have no preferences, and good beer.

cheers. l'chaim. to life.
