Seriously I don't know what has happened to me, but I've gone from my normally high sex drive to feeling like a ravenous sex-wolf... ok maybe that's not the best metaphor, but most the blood hasn't been getting to my brain for a while now...
I think I'm going back to school. I love history, but I don't love my students. That's not a good quality for a teacher. I also hate that I feel like my job is to crank them out as fast and as easily as possible rather than actually educate them. I absolutely hate how administration in education is focused on profit and not on actual...

I miss my dad a lot today. I know I'm a 35 year old adult, but right now I feel like a kid who just needs a hug from his dad. Call your dad today, or if you live close enough give him a big hug and tell him that you love him. Then do the same for your mom.
I'm getting old, and it is getting me down. I found white hairs in my beard yesterday, I smell like bengay more often than I'd like to admit.

I'm feeling very worthless because I'm unable to help the people I love. I hate things that are beyond my control. That might be a rather immature attitude, but at 35 years old, I can't imagine it will ever change.
My friend, my lover my everything, but yet we are still in limbo. We fight like a couple, we support each other like a couple, but I haven't seen her in over a year. We talk daily on the phone, in fact I spend hours with her on the phone. Taking the next step isn't easy. My finances are a mess due to under-employment, medical...

My mother has been coughing up blood for the last week. She has an appointment with the doctor on Wednesday. She smoked for almost 30 years quit a few years before my dad was diagnosed with his cancer, then started smoking again shortly before he died. She's been an on again off again smoker ever since. I'm scared. I don't think I can watch yet...
