wordless wednesday
dreams
I’ve been sleeping little at night (due to not going to bed until 10:30 or later), so I’ve taken up a habit of coming home from work and taking a nap. Today, I figured I only needed a one hour nap, but with the help of snooze, it turned into a one and a half hour nap. Whoops?
What was interesting about todays nap was the dream(s) I had.
First I was at work, custodial. I was dusting...
stress
Why is it just when you think you’ve got things figured out, you don’t?
Why is it that some of my best days are also my worst?
For heaven’s sake, why the heck does my body try to kill me when I get stressed?
the dictation
I’m sorry, I promised a more in-depth post about my doctors appointment. Unfortunately, sometimes life has other plans. But, yesterday I received the dictation of the appointment in the mail, looked over it, and decided I had to blog about it.
For those of you who have no idea what I’m talking about, the dictation is basically the doctors notes from the visit. After I left (or later...
where I hate stairs
I was going to post this a while ago. I thought I’d have more to say about why I hate stairs. But, since I’ve tried taking stairs out of my daily life, my life has actually improved. Of course, my room is upstairs so I have to take some. So, without further ado, why I hate stairs:
So, I hate stairs. Really. They suck.
Even a set of 10 stairs can take my breath away. Literally.
I will...
New Plan
Apparently I need a boyfriend ASAP.
Any volunteers?
This week - the aftermath
I survived. Somehow (although the week isn’t quite over yet).
Finals? check.Doctors appointment? check.Help my friend move out? check.Work? check.Sleep? half check. (I slept in this morning. That was beautiful)
I guess next week is the “mom gets home soon, CLEAN!” frenzy. Wish me luck.
my sometimes-favorite day
1. Apparently there’s some sort of cleaning going on.
2. It’s a sunny day.
3. 2009 has actually been kind of crappy so far.
4. You know that was it.
5. For too long I’ve been in denial.
6. I am not obsessed with you; I am not!
7. And as for the weekend, tonight I’m looking forward to working, tomorrow my plans include working and Sunday, I want to do...
wait, do I need to put something here?
THE RULES:
Step 1: respond and rework—answer the questions on your own blog, replace one question that you dislike with a question of your own invention, add one more question of your own.
Step 2: tag—other people.
Make a list of things you can see without getting up: Lots of boxes. a couch. my friend and her sister. chairs.
Favorite football team: I always have this hope that BYU will be...
happy earth day
Not that I’ve done anything for earth day. Whoops.
So. Maybe tonight or tomorrow I’ll do a full post on the past few days. For now, here’s a few highlights:
- Sunday I got a new calling. - Monday went well. Except for the part that I found out my Drs. appointment was Tuesday instead of Thursday (and in the middle of a final, too!) Rushed to campus to finish final(it was take...
stalking
Is it considered stalking if you either a) ask permission first or b) get asked to do it?
next week
So, this week was nice. Only one day of classes, one last assignment to finish, and a few days to relax. To prepare for next week. Which looks like this:
Monday: Pick up CS 142 final. Try not to faint in horror. Work both jobs.Tuesday: Turn in Mission Prep final. Work on 142 final. Work one job.Wednesday: Turn in 142 final. Breath a sigh of relief that finals are done. Work both jobs.Thursday. Go...
please?
Can I just run away? Not that it would help, but maybe I’d get some sleep.
what if...
life sucks sometimes. well, make that most of the time. i guess you’d say life’s all in your attitude. but what if you didn’t care anymore? what if it hurt so much, you didn’t care about being happy, or even pretending to be happy?
what if friends try to help, but don’t realize how they can help? what if they try something, and it doesn’t work, because...
is that my laptop?
Saturday I worked. This isn’t an unusual occurrence, I work most Saturday’s now. I’m almost used to it, actually. But this Saturday we had company in town: my dad’s cousin’s wife, some of her kids, and a foreign exchange student who was living with them. They all drove down from California for General Conference (which hopefully I’ll talk about later this week)....
first friday in April
And…here we go!
1. Angel or not, I will try not to die.
2. I won’t be any way you want me.
3. As my mother used to say, you’re full of it.
4. I eat ice cream after I’m done working out or doing something strenuous.
5. Even in the most crowded of rooms I can feel alone.
6. Today is a day fraught with peril.
7. And as for the weekend, tonight I’m looking forward...
shuffle, shuffle
Since I’m a sucker for all sorts of blog memes, I read this and decided I really wanted to do it.
It’s one of the simpler one’s I’ve ever come across.
Open iTunes, or your music player of choice.Go to your main library, where all your music is.Push shuffle.List the first 20 songs that play.
Now, I have just over 1000, and have quite a variety, so this will be interesting....
yesterday
So, yesterday was interesting. And fun. In an odd sort of way.
I got to the hospital right on time, and had plenty of fun paperwork to fill out. Mainly “Have you ever…” and “Do you…” questions. Most of these I answered no. I got my bracelet - it’s so fashionable I decided to keep wearing it for a few days. I’ll probably cut it off tonight.
After all...
