ADD, OCD, ABC :: Obsessive Compulsive Alphabet

We had our lesson yesterday and I moved up a class. Yea! And if we get our forward cross-overs down then we can move up another. Taking a break from skating today. I skated around 5 hours yesterday. Instead, I'm getting ready to go see Chicago tonight with Jen with a planned stop by Broadway for some dancing afterwards.

Broadway will be a little strange without Spencer there. Half the time, I go just to visit with him. What do I do now? Visit the Bigfoot I guess. Swing just won't be the same without Spencer. Not even sure if my heart will be in it without him. Can't really dance to our song if he's not there!

Right now, I'm so obsessed with the fact that I can not get my hands satisfactorily (is that even a word?) clean enough. I spent the afternoon staining my latest project. Like a fool, I didn't wear latex gloves and now every wrinkle and crease is filled with stain. It takes more than chanting "Out, out Damn spot" to clean these babies. It's so bad when I make a fist I can feel the stain crowding the lines that cross over your knuckles. What the hell are those anyway? Do they have a name? I guess I better refrain from the fist until I get it to wear off. I wish I could stop thinking about it. It is so OCD!

Just as I'm begining to realize I am probably ADD, I have to start with this OCD thing too! God, am I just going to go through all the compulsions represented by cute little abbreviations???? Please don't let me be a hypochondriac too!

Other news :: I heard Nell Carter died. I thought Dave was shitting me when he called. She was with us last month and seemed fine to me. But then again what do I know about her health problems.

Out my Window :: The Police have been steadily cruising my neighborhood every fifteen minutes. I wonder what's going on. It's been pretty quiet here today. Just the usual :: Muni Drivers walking back and forth from cars to buses. Guy on scooter pulling Dog on Board stopping by the liquor store and rolling home. Skateboard Guy with glow in dark blinking helmet flying past. Noon Time Lunch Crowd invading... Typical Dogpatch moments. Nothing OCD, ADD, or OPP about that.
