holding on by my fingers

I am seriously, seriously thinking about running away. Just going somewhere else for a few days. I am planning on seeing Sarah later this summer, which is a thing to look forward to on its own. But the impulse to just take off is really strong in me.

Today was hard. Stacy, generous soul that she is, took me out of the house for lunch. Then we went swimming for a couple hours. The sunlight and water soothed me me a lot. If I could go somewhere with nothing to do but swim all day, I might be alright.

What do you do when you feel like your heart is just broken?

If it's at all convenient, I go to the ocean. Failing that, just drive for a while and practice my radiomancy.

I have a futon in my studio. You're welcome to it anytime.

I don't know what else to say. I'm so sorry.

Walk a lot in the neighborhood. Listen to the Smiths. Wear drab clothing. Not sure why that helps... but it does. Pet cats. Give money to bums. Walk some more.

Hang in there.

Oh, and you can come swim whenever you want, even when we're not here- the gate's not locked. But if you want company, I'm around on my usual days next week, and Wednesday and Thursday afternoons after that.

I go for a walk in the woods, if at all possible. If not, I just sit outside with my ipod, maybe try to write a bit.

For very different reasons, I'm experiencing some similar feelings. I haven't yet figured out what to do when you feel like your heart is just broken but...you're not alone in it.
