dinner in new york


i should have taken a picture of what i looks like outside today. but i didn't.
i had a doctor's appointment today and you know i was convinced that my doctor, a cute little guy, did not particularly care for me, but i am wrong, he likes me...so i am sitting in his office, facing a window overlooking a bunch of buildings when it started snowing, big fat flakes like cotton balls being dumped over the city. i couldn't even tell the man what was going on with me because i was so distracted by it. but i did...i have an inner ear thing happening that throws me off balance and gives me the worst dizzy spells. i have muscle stiffness in my back that he says will be good after i do a couple of rounds of icy hot (which i forgot to buy today) and tylenol (because advils give me hives - go fig). he wants me to see a weightloss specialist and continue going to the gym...i guess i should be upset about it all, but i'm not. i am glad to know there is a least SOMEthing going on with me. it doesn't explain everything, but it explains somethings. it all just means that i have to take care of my heart. i can't depend on other people to be as careful with it as i am. and trust me, i am going to be fierce about protecting it from now on.
anyway what was front of me a few hours ago was far better photographic material than anything i saw. a pink cupcake. a cup of coffee. my cell phone transmitting messages from a dear one. and a good book from a new author friend. that was my dinner today.
i had a nice nyc day in december.
