now what day is it?

It is Sunday, of course. I downloaded the latest OS and now I'm regretting it because I think it's not going to like my very old version of Word. I kept meaning to bring my MacBook into work and ask Steve for an update but I never got around to it. In other fascinating tech news, I took my new printer out of the box and plugged it in yesterday. I was able to set up the print function on my MacBook but I guess I need help from IT to set up the lenovo laptop. Especially now that I might not be able to use Word on the mac.

The sky looks anemic. Pale blue, mostly obscured by filmy white clouds. I feel unrested because I woke up around 2 and had a hard time getting back to sleep. Questions -- and self-reproach -- are hard to suppress at that time of night. What if I lose my job? What if we have an earthquake? What if my front entryway collapses? What is that noise? How am I going to get to sleep? Should I turn on the light and read a little? Should I stream something boring and soothing? Maybe I should get up and pee. Why haven't I called mom and dad?

And so on.

I did call mom but she didn't answer. I am hesitating about trying dad. I do not like calling. And unless I call them I don't feel like I should be calling anyone else. So yes, I should try dad.

You think things will go on for a while but you don't really know.
