I know it's just monday, but can this week be over now?
On Friday, my jeep decided it didn't like having antifreeze in it anymore, so it spilled it all out, via the waterpump. As I am about as mechanically inclined as a stuffed llama, this meant a trip to the shop. And, as it is under a pretty major warranty, this meant a trip...

I submit them to the SG blog via Nicole. Though I imagine if you still submit stuff the old way it can be queued as it was before.

Took my mother out to a very late Mother's Day lunch. She's retired, and I'm on Summer Break, and this is the first day when our schedules meshed close enough for lunch. During lunch, she told me that she had seen an ad from the local Red Cross that they were looking for volunteers to go down to where the tornadoes hit, and she...

Have you thought of water work outs?
brightredscream:
Think. Think. Think.
After a short convo with Trekka today, I had an odd thought: There don't seem to be any, or at least many, non-religious youth service groups. It sometimes seems like half my incoming freshman students come in talking about their church group service trip, usually to Mexico, where they built houses or schools or something (and, according to their papers and discussions, encountered their first...

I can see that. I went through cutting out the stress and trying to relax as much as possible. Avoiding the stress factors helps a lot! But then there are those that want to keep bringing it back into my life, which sucks.
I also told her I want to work on my self esteem issues, my issues of flash judging people and thinking that basically everyone I come across is an idiot, as well as trust issues and a shitload of other stuff.

I need a backrub and a sandwich! If only they had backrub and sandwich shops right!?
Ok. Seems I have less to do than I thought. So, I bought a new moleskine, filled my pen, and today I start a new book. So, wish me luck

You have to have a college degree for the Peace Corps. Otherwise, I would have done it ages ago. :-/ I shall figure something out.

My life. Seriously.
I swear though, something REALLY bad is going to happen soon. The pendulum has to swing back at some point right?

Nope. That is my job.
Thinkin' some thoughts.
I am incredibly scared at the thought of meeting people I've talked to online.
I think I'm getting arthritis in my fingers.
My head hurts.
I somehow managed to tear the fitted sheet on my bed. I did not know this until last night. So, I bought new sheets today. They were majorly on-sale.

Nono. My fault. There will always be more opportunities. :]
This food thing is getting ridiculous.
A few days ago, on my new iphone, I found an app that lets you keep track of what you eat, calculates how much you should eat in order to lose weight at a healthy rate (1-2 lbs per week, max), calculates your calories burned during exercise based on your age and weight. All sorts of good stuff. So,...

You always know when to swoop in. :/
In just over a month, and baring 2 half-slipups, I will be cigarette-free for a year. I'm kinda proud of that fact. Now that I think about it, the money I've saved on cigarettes can easily pay for the iphone I just bought today

Thank you. I really need them right now.
I think my mind is doing a runner.
I also think I confuse people because I speak British English with a Western American accent.

You have to take your fun as it comes. Today was my 1 week checkup, post-Lasik. Apparently everything is fine. My left eye is now better than my right, but that may change. All is good, and I'm done with antibiotics.
Anyway, part of the exam involves putting some yellow dye in my eyes. I don't know what it does,...

Howz ur ayeblz.
trekka:
Hehehehe! You're funny!
For anyone who is wondering about Lasik, I thought I would describe the procedure.
First, there is the initial exam, pretty much like a regular eye checkup. They verify your prescription, and make sure it hasn't changed significantly. Mine had remained the same for several years.
I elected to go for the custom version of Lasik, so they took several computer images of my eyes...

he's doing it to goat you into an online argument. He will then probably flag your posts and then you'll get in trouble for reacting so passionately. I understand completely that it enrages you, it enrages me, but i am not going to give him the satisfaction of a response, his argument is weak and easily shot down and when you're too busy smoking trees to educate yourself, you're obviously not worth the time.
He's high and egging you on, and you're falling for it, you're better than that Mike and you know it.
