i thought this weekend was the ideal for fast and solitude. based on my schedule, i though it would be the most free. i can’t do it, though. it looks like i’ll have to work most of the weekend. ..

i have no complaints, yet i feel irritated. today i start a 3 day fast, and look forward to some solitude.
