5.23.09 - 265/365

in the mirrorwe are in ojai
celebrating my brother's 50th
we just had a lovely dinner
honoring him
the things people said were so beautiful, funny & true
i cried many times
including during my toast
my brother has an amazing capacity for friendship
and a great love of children;
the energy was incredible

i looked in the mirror
when i was in the bathroom
and didn't recognize myself at all
it was the strangest feeling
as if someone else were looking back at me
it kind of seemed like i was in a cheesy movie
except that it was very, very real

not quite sure what to make of it...
