My Point Is (And I Do Have One)
Wednesday, March 31st, 2010So yesterday I blogged about nearly getting married and how it ended in complete disaster. Only to discover that the trip, despite the insanity of it all, had nothing to do with T, marrying him, or getting jilted. It was all about Chris and dealing with the aftermath of his death. I don’t remember when [...]
Some Things Aren’t Exactly What They Seem
Tuesday, March 30th, 2010Some years ago – sixteen, in fact – I almost got married. The man who almost became my husband was in the military, stationed in Germany. It’s surprising we ended up together at all since I hated him the first time we me. It was in a club well before our relationship – he said [...]
The Day After
Monday, March 29th, 2010I hurt today. Seriously. My entire body feels like I got sideswiped by a Mack Truck. Which lies somewhere between getting run over and hit full on by said Mack Truck. I think part of it is because I was far more tense about this past weekend than I thought I was. Honestly, I wasn’t [...]
Reveling In It
Saturday, March 27th, 2010Yesterday I was at work sliding down rabbit holes trying to find out some information. So, I stopped by a gentlemen’s office to ask a question. By the time I’d made it there, I was already kind of frustrated because I couldn’t find out what I needed to know. There were other people in his [...]
No Sleep For The Weary
Thursday, March 25th, 2010So, this whole working thing? Over-rated. Don’t get me wrong, I love having money to pay my bills coming in, and I get along well with the people I work with. I like the interaction and learning new things. But, dude, if I won the lottery tomorrow I’d *so* be out of there. :-) Five [...]
Twelve Things I’ve Re-Discovered
Sunday, March 21st, 2010So, I’ve been back to work for 3 weeks, now. Here’s a list of twelve things I’ve re-discovered 1. I really wish I was independently wealthy 2. Having to get up at 4:30 am is still not my idea of a good time 3. Having to go to bed at 9:00 makes me feel really [...]
The Craziness of Weekends
Sunday, March 14th, 2010So, the countdown is on until I move to nightshift and a 12 hr / 6 days a week work week. That would be 3 weeks from now. And while I’m definitely looking forward to the money I’ll make, I’m not looking forward to being in hibernation for the better part of 2 months. When [...]
Product… Uh What?
Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010Productivity comes at the strangest times. The past 5 – 1/2 months I’ve had more than enough time on my hands to write. And yet did I do any? Nope. Not one word. Well, I wrote in my journal, but I don’t count journaling as word count. This past Monday, I started my new job. [...]
Have You Ever
Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010Taken a psych eval as a writer? Seriously. The questions like “have you ever heard voices?” or “seen things that other people don’t see” or “have you ever wanted to hurt or kill anyone” really make the test difficult. Well, not difficult, exactly, just weird. Because I hear voices in my head, see things that [...]
