Twitchy day

The theme these past couple of days seems to be twitching and compulsion. Yesterday at work at the Y my eye kept twitching for no apparent reason. I was talking to Erin and I made a joke about how some problem kept making my eye twitch, and she said, "Oh my God, your eye really IS twitching!" LOL Makes me seem so much more sensitive than I actually am.

Then today I'm in a meeting with Dave, Scott and Barb and my leg was twitching. Not sure why. But it looked like I was bouncing my leg impatiently. I wasn't feeling particularly impatient. In fact, I was concentrating on looking interested - not an easy task at most of these meetings.

I left work at 4:30 today - early for me - and headed to Boston's to have dinner with Pinky and Marv. Marv and I split a "Da Vinci Chicken" pizza. It was a pizza crust with spinach/artichoke dip with chicken and cheese. I'm unsure of the connection to Da Vinci, but it was really yummy. There were chunks of artichoke on it as well, but I asked them to keep it on Marv's side of the pizza.

After that, I headed home with the plan to get my computer and head somewhere so I could do some writing. But I walked out of the house and realized that I'd better plant those chokecherry trees that I got free at work before they drowned in the water bucket. So I planted six trees and in so doing so saw all the weeds. Well, you know where that ended up...two hours later it was dark and I had one garden completely free of weeds! If I could do that area every day, I'd be done in about a week!

I'm at McDonalds now - where the internet connection is. And there was a man sitting in the booth next to me either suffering from Parkinsons or some other disorder where he shook constantly. Reminded me of all my twitching.

Saturday was Healthy Kids Day at the Y. We had about 2 million kids there. It was actually a lot of fun. I hung out for quite a while in the Fitness room swinging the jumprope for kids to jump over. It was just not the same without the jumprope chants. None of the other parents nor I could remember! I really like doing the events. It feels very energizing. Unlike the paperwork and tedium that I usually deal with.
