It's Always Too Long

I never post blogs anymore. I'm sorry about that. I really enjoy blogging actually. I think the problem is just that I don't sit at a desk all day anymore. Well, that's no kind of problem, but still.

Basically things are really good. I love my job, I really like the people I work with on the whole, I'm really happy with the progress I'm making financially, I'm feeling pretty stable. Some things are still not quite as I'd like them to be, but it will come in time I'm sure.

That paragraph had a lot of "I" in it. That's something I'm trying to work on. I get so wrapped up in my own mind and my own inner workings that I sometimes lose sight of the world around me. I try not to, and am usually successful, but every once in a while I realize that I'm motoring a hundred miles a minute all about me. I need to think about and pray about other people, not just my own needs and situations.

Today I sat out and enjoyed the sunshine for a while. I didn't intend to, but I totally sunburned myself. Being the preacher of SPF that I am to anyone who will listen, and some who won't, I'm so mad at myself for it! It was nice though, feeling the sun warming my skin. It makes me excited to be on vacation somewhere that I can hop up and jump into a body of water to cool off when it gets too hot.

I suppose I'll wrap up this boring post. I'll try to post something more interesting, more often.

Toodles. :)

gurgle

i'm so annoyed that i'm sick right now. it's my own stupid fault, that's the worst part. i was thinking it's gotten to the point where i should make a doctor's appointment, but today i saw the nurse at work. although she said my throat ... well, i'll spare you the details and just say it looked disgusting. but no white spots to indicate strep. she recommended frequent salt water gargling and i may be able to kick it. so here i sit, watching my favorite Monday night shows ... How I Met Your Mother, Accidentally On Purpose (while flipping to House during commercials), Two & a Half Men and Big Bang Theory ... while intermittently going to the kitchen to heat my salt water back up and gargle.

maybe it's psychological, but my throat already feels a wee bit better.

and Two & a Half men is turning out to be very melancholy. here's looking to Sheldon on Big Bang Theory to perk things back up.

although this is probably a lame Monday night, i find it peaceful and relaxing. and quiet. sooo nice and quiet.

finally: today a psychic told me that something will happen by or in September. i guess we've got t-minus seven months to see if she's a quack. (which, i'll be honest, i presume she will be.)

that is all. please enjoy your Monday night.

sometimes i think you might be bipolar

i have been having some strange dreams lately. these include, but are not limited to:

hanging out in a bar in mcminnville that i've never been to and all of the currently touring american idol peeps were there. there was more to this dream and it got really weird, but i don't remember it all now.

working in a new job that's really really cool, but i have no idea what it is or what's going on. just that i love it. i guess that's good, right?

then a very strange one involving a member of a family that doesn't like me much (although this person is my friend on facebook, so maybe they feel differently?) and a weird situation ... i was in a bathroom, similar to one at our high school. for some reason, he was in the bathroom as well and was refusing to give me any privacy. (there also seemed to be no stalls ... so weird.) i was at that like, i-will-explode-if-i-don't-go-to-the-bathroom-soon point of bladder retention. (i think this dream was right before i woke up and i really did have to go that badly. sorry. tmi.) i finally gave up and then he somehow used that to spread a nasty rumor about me all around school ... something to do with me having a kid out of wedlock. or something. i have no idea. the madness. i think what it boiled down to was that (because IRL he's my friend on facebook?) in the dream, i thought he was on "my side" of the drama between myself and his family but he was really tricking me in order to bring me down. no idea where this all stemmed from.

anyway. now you're caught up. i'll try to be more interesting in the future. apologies.
