it's thursday. tomorrow is friday, thank whatever there is that is bigger than me.

i have spent my evening with the nurse. i will miss her when she is gone. but they have promised to take care of me from long-distance. i hope they follow through.

it is strange... i move so much and so often, that now i make friends easily. but i never know which friendships will last. i hope this one does. they are easy people... easy to be friends with, loyal, fun, generous. but i got a little bit philosophical this evening for a few minutes... being a voyager for long enough can become terminal. what i mean is, i have now been homeless for ten years. and i keep moving, trying to find that place that fits. but the more i move, the more i keep moving. i wonder if i will ever be able to settle properly, or if i will always be on the move, wondering what's over that hill. i hope that the nurse and i will be friends outside of this place. we were brought together by the weirdest series of coincidences... if i believed in anything, i wouldn't be able to call this coincidence. but she is entrusting some valuable biology charts to me, so we must meet again someday. perhaps i will seek employment in Montréal in 2007-2008.

in other news, Fiona is definitely pregnant. she's been barfing and hasn't eaten for two days. she's not coming out of her kennel, just looking at me pitifully, as if to say, "I should have listened to you, builder of the Chastity Gate(TM)!" It's endearing, but not going to help her out of her situation.
