Forget the sauna

Dec 22, 2002 by Lyanna

The Man and I had plans to go to a sauna today, in Blijswijk. Really nice, called the Elysium. The day was very dreary anyway, nothing better to do…well I guess a lot of people thought the same. When we got there, the parking lot was so crowded there were people double parked. We shot one look at eachother and then I got the car out of there as fast as I could.

I could just imagine: a LOT of sweaty people all packed on top of eachother. Not my idea of a relaxing time.

So we drove on to Utrecht instead. Weird, now that I am here my mood has radically improved. I haven’t really felt at ease in my home the last week. Probably because I am connecting it with what my parents said last week. I know I should get over it, but somehow they pushed that final limit I think. I had a rough week to begin with, and maybe that just enhances the unheimlich feeling, I don’t know. Today was just a day of constant thinking…my parents came over last night, and although they were very, very polite, I got an undercurrent which was very cool. I’ve always been very sensitive to those kinds of things. I am hoping I am imagining it, but I have the inkling I wasn’t. Things are just kind of tense and I hate that.

So I am glad to be here at the moment. Both The Man and I slept rotten last night, dunno why really, and I just slept 90 minutes and that really made me feel better. I am just in for a quiet evening with him and a movie or something. *sighs*. I should be feeling happy with Christmas just around the corner. Guess this just isn’t the day for it.
