  • Untangled Thoughts I had a conversation with my current work-mom this evening. What I love about her is that she tells me what I already know. The thing is, I've overthought things so much that I don't know which way …

  • Taking the Hint So, I've not heard from Chris since Wednesday. I've left about three voice-mails for him, and he has not responded. I'm not much experienced in the love department, but I have a pretty good idea what t…

  • I think I've pulled an abdominal muscle. While laughing. Lesson learned - never laugh on a day when you work your abs at the gym. Problem - life is so damned funny sometimes.

  • I thought of writing tonight, but I'm tired, and I just don't care.

  • Down Sometimes, reality weighs so heavily upon my dreams that I find it nearly impossible to keep my hopes up. Maybe it's time I let go of that dream and grow up. Become an adult. Realize that I don't really have wha…

  • A Good Beginning The week has started out extraordinarily well. I've won the football pool at work (guessing the winning team for ALL 14 NFL games, thankyouverymuch; it won't happen again!). Work went fairly well yest…

  • Frustrating! Well, Big Weekend is over (thankfully!). And I can go back to what I keep desperately telling myself is "normal". But, part of this frustration has been that Chris and I keep missing each other on the tel…

  • Ain't That the Truth A person can't regret honesty any more than other unavoidables - a plain face or a poor history. - Leif Enger, Peace Like a River

  • Second Date I called in sick to work today. Chris called me as soon as he got off work. Since I was home and not at work, I was able to talk to him. Both of us are busy this weekend, so our next date will be Wednesd…

  • Is It Really Me? Dinner with Chris went VERY well. Really really really really well. I feel a glow on the inside right now. The boy is a good kisser. And, he went WAY up in my estimation for not trying to push me …

  • I'll Be Better When I'm Older Tonight I went to that Presbyterian-Muslim Dialogue I mentioned previously. It was quite interesting. However, as is sometimes the case, that's not what I wish to discuss right now. A po…

  • No Rest for the Weary Welp, I have an appointment (read: FREE consultation) with a trainer at the gym at 8 pm Friday night. And there's a chance that I may go shopping Saturday afternoon after work. So, my calendar …

  • For a Moment, You Felt Important So, despite the fact that I still don't really consider myself to have much of a social life, I've managed to accrue quite a busy week for myself. Monday, after a workout at the gym (I'…

  • Bookworm I finished Our Lady of the Lost and Found last night. Now I have three or four other books vying to be my next read. I'll flip a coin, I guess. After my nap.

  • A Day of Rest? So, today has been a busy Sunday. However, I'm not referring to it as an overwhelming Sunday, because I've still got next Sunday with which to contend. I had yesterday off. I do not have next Saturday …

  • All By Myself So, I actually followed-through last night (though not without some last minute encouragement from Vicki) and went out all by myself. Now, this is a huge deal for me. For, while I am quite accustomed (a…

  • The Problem When Two Wallflowers Make and Maintain Eye Contact Across a Crowded Room Neither is willing to give up their premium wall space to uproot themselves and walk over to the other. Also, you can always count on…

  • So I See... "...it now seems to me that, much as the old notion of finding something when you're not looking for it has often been proved true, the opposite is also and equally true: you find what you are looking for. …

  • Come Again? I heard from Icky Boy last night on IM, for the first time in...what...three weeks? Anyway, he's in Korea, and I was being...cordial. Didn't really want to talk to him, didn't really care what he might hav…

  • How We Were... Where do they go, I wonder, all those facts we once knew, those memories we once treasured, those truths we once believed in, those people we once loved and now don't? - Diane Schoemperlen, Our Lady of …

  • Notre Dame I just finished reading The Hunchback of Notre Dame. I read it for the first time in 1998, and knew it was still one of my favorites, and now I recall why. Those who know me know that I am not given to cryi…

  • I have something I want to say, but I've been awake for a very long time, and I know I cannot start down that stream of consciousness and still be mentally "fit" at the end.
