The other day I was explaining my theory that when I wake up, I like to tell myself that today could be the most extraordinary day, and how it contrasts with an earlier phase characterized by calling my ex-boyfriend at work to say that I needed a pep talk to get out of bed, and he would always be compassionate, and say something like, "Oh do you need a reason, baby? How about that it's 12:30?" And I would laugh and get up. This morning my phone rang at like, 9:30, and jolted me right out of a dream. After a few moments of feeling cross, I discovered it was an invitation from one of the hosts of the Poets & Writers Gala on Wednesday night! So that qualifies as auspicious and then some. Anyway, work and parties and everything means maybe no Lux Lotus this week at all. Maybe.
