I am done being petty

this is from post secret.
At one point I bought into the whole “winning” and “losing” concept- in relation to past boyfriends or ex-friends.
Now it seems so petty and immature- but is there a grain of truth to it?
Is it all a competition to see who has the upper hand or “wins” at life?
Whoever gets over [...]

Etc.

I finally got my copy of Evolution of a Cro-Magnon yesterday and I started reading it-
I am mildly surprised by the size of the book (its a work out to read this thing while in bed)
plus so far it is really good.

I guess I just abandoned Lies My Teacher Told Me.
I think I am going [...]

I Nearly Lost You…

HI
IM ALIVE!
I’ve been kinda really busy- besides being sick and all (maybe thats why I am STILL sick- I refuse to just rest)
Since the holiday season is kicking into gear-
I have started making some Christmas gifts for my nieces.
I originally bought that “Listography” book for my 13 year old niece-
then after I had gotten home with it [...]

Weekend Update (belated

It’s Friday and I am just now recapping last weekend-
Geoffrey came in to town and I had dinner with him and his family on Friday night and lunch on Saturday.

I get asked “what now?” and honeslty, I don’t [...]

Blah

This morning, Michelle left two bags of my stuff outside next to my car instead of meeting me face to face.
I’m not sure how I feel about this- on one hand I feel bad that she would even feel the need to avoid any meeting with me but on the other I think it’s a [...]

Should I be worried?

What is this tiny thing?

why…. that is one of two MUSHROOMS growing out of the baseboards in my living room.
Hurricane Ike pushed water through every window in the apartment and flooded enough outside to make the parquet floor tiles swell and pop up like a scattered mountain range along the front wall near my front [...]

New Addition

It is so interesting to be friends with a married couple and then out of nowhere this new human being shows up- looking all cute and bundled up like a human burrito.
The whole thing happens so seamlessly- like destiny- and the mom effortlessly talks so motherly and soothingly as though she has awakened a (long [...]

mind bouncing

A friend told me about these diet pills she has been trying and has lost some weight with them-
So I tried some yesterday and thought my brain was malfunctioning for a bit.
Now it just feels like mania in a pill form- but perhaps it is the caffeine? (I don’t drink caffeine)
Anyway, it feels pointless because [...]
