i had a dream last night...

that you wrote me a letter.
it said december 14.
"i know it's a long time," you said,
"but, just be patient."

* * * * *

i found out, today, that since leaving alcott,
i've dropped 1.6 lbs.
normal & expected, but slightly frustrating when
i've been working my ass off.
but my metabolism is in overdrive.
so ,i got another meal plan increase.
whatever works. let's do it.
gotta hit that "century mark", as bob puts it.
...only about 25 lbs to go...

and for those who have asked:
Walden Behavioral Care was named after Thoreau's Walden
(published in 1854.)
Thoreau (the psych unit) is named after Henry David Thoreau,
and Alcott (the eating disorder unit) is named after Louisa May Alcott.

Thoreau and Walden make sense.
Not sure about Alcott.

and there's your lesson for the day
on my hospital of choice :P
