10:07 pm on a Saturday… I should be living it up right? Partying with friends? Watching my two favorite hockey teams battle it out at my favorite bar on TV? Creating havoc amongst the hearts of men? Nah, not this girl. Not tonight. Instead, I’m sitting in my comfy jammies in a candlelit room feeling a case of the blahs and a creative funk coming … Continue reading Rise Above It
This blog entry brought to you by feelings of annoyance. My heart hurts. Not in the mental or emotional heart broken way, but in the physical “could I be having a heart attack” kind of way. I know what you’re thinking, “Why are you writing this? Go to a doctor stupid.” I’ve felt this before though. It happens when I let my feelings & thoughts … Continue reading Easily Bruised
So my Friday the 13th has been fan-freaking-tastic. Why? 1) a little self pampering with a manicure, pedicure, & eyebrow wax. 2) Lunch and shopping with one of my best friends Kathy 3) a surprise party from Adrienne, Amy, Emilie, Jeannine, Joe, Johnny, Kim, Mark, Patrick, Shawn complete with chocolate cake & sparkler candles (note on sparkler candles…they don’t go out so easily) 4) hockey … Continue reading Lucky 13
I’m sitting here listening to my iPod & fighting sleep and a tickle in my throat. I will not be sick in Vegas. Do you hear me Universe? I WILL NOT BE SICK IN VEGAS. I didn’t write last night & the 100 words I wrote tonight were pretty much crap. I don’t have the energy to keep my eyes open much less type 2000 … Continue reading This Week
It’s Wednesday & it’s 9:46 pm. I was suppose to go see Social Distortion tonight, but I’m mentally drained & really just too freaking exhausted. A load of laundry is drying in the other room and the ice maker is spitting out ice into an empty holder. Ah…the life of a single a lady…also known as being a big girl I set all these goals … Continue reading Just Be
It’s Sunday, October 18th and it’s 9:02 pm. I’m sitting in my room listening to the sounds of life outside my apartment window. I much prefer the sounds of the countryside. I recognize the sounds instantly there. Here, I’m not sure if the noise I hear is from a neighbor, a business, a light rail, people, the settling of a new apartment building, and so … Continue reading Goodnight Baby
As my dear friend Adrienne screams when she’s doing a shot that she shouldn’t do, “Ow, my life!” Not that my life is in “Ow” It’s very far from “ow.” It’s actually a great life. I have great friends and a great family. I have a great job that I enjoy going to daily. Life is good. I think “Ow, my life,” when I have … Continue reading To the Lust of the Life
First, I really didn’t want to start out my day with a gyno visit, but I do have to admit my gyno is pretty cool. It’s not nearly as creepy, icky, and painful as some of my friend’s horror stories. I have a clean bill of health 🙂 Always good news. Second, I have been highly annoyed the last two days…probably really the last four … Continue reading Sigh…Day is Almost Over
Waking up @ 5 am to ANY Disturbed song will scare the hell out of you. (Even if you’re a fan.) I’m getting old. I actually listened and enjoyed NPR News at 6 am on my way to work. Never rush out of the office on a Friday without making sure all of Monday’s work is ready to go. Whatever you forget on Friday will … Continue reading Things I’ve Learned Today
