I am live and well. I've just had an awful lot on my plate.
I went to Lourdes for a week. It was an interesting experience. Over all I enjoyed myself, but there was one afternoon where I hated being there, I hated my job for taking me there but I saw it through. I ended up cutting myself, and concidering I had a room mate, in a forgein country and had to find a blade, made it really tricky. I then spent the rest of the week hiding my arms from my room mate, which isn't as easy as it sounds.
I then had a week of my play. I was working all day and then on stage all night. It was a lot of fun but very busy.
Then last week, work gave me three days of work. Mainly to help me get over my chest and ear infection which I had developed while in Lourdes. So I have six days to myself and no pressure to do anything. I decided to play Halo and have almost finished it now. I can't wait so I can start on Halo 2. However Halo has suddenly got a lot harder with The Flood, The Covenant and The Sentanals all after me. On top of all that I stopped playing for two days, and now can't work out where I'm going or where I need to go. I keep getting killed. It's great fun. I need to ensure I have more ammo for the game.
Therapy is going well, but also doing strange things. I have to re-evaluate everything, I have to note what everything makes me feel, and see if I can name what I'm feeling. If I can't name it I have to attept to place where in the body I'm feeling something. It's really hard. When I went through my tough time in Lourdes, someone was trying to comfort me and I kept thinking about the map that my therapist and I are working on. I also kept thinking about 'that my needs were not being fulfilled' but I had no idea what my needs were.
I will try and blog more. Thank for those who have left messages and asked after me. On the whole I'm fine, just been very busy. Take care everyone.
Cheers for that, Spike. There's a certain sad irony in going to Lourdes to
catch infections. Any more detail on the am dram?
