This Tuesday...

Yesterday Seth and I went grocery shopping just like we did last Tuesday, and the Tuesday before that and before that and... you get the picture. I used to love those days just like I used to love cooking but not so much anymore.

But this Tuesday.. it was different. This Tuesday Seth and I were super heroes! Yup, that's right! Superheros. (And no I was NOT wearing a cape) We had a blast and most importantly we won. Now who we were racing against, and what it is that we won I'm not entirely sure but that didn't seem to matter to Seth. He was just thrilled that we were the winners. And of course I was thrilled with him....

He's a funny sort of kid that Sethy of mine. 'Rubbish' is his new favorite word. And where he picked it up I have no idea although my family seems to think that it was from me. Superstore was all out of something I needed and I wasn't pleased to have to go somewhere else.

"Rubbish", says Seth. "It's a rubbish day!". I concurred...

...but in reality it was a great day.

Gotta go... Lost is starting in a minute.

Day 4

I am in so much pain right now that it's even a wonder I can type. Don't ask why, cuz I don't know. But that just seems to be the norm. I am kicking myself for not taking advantage of the fifteen pain free minutes I had and gone to sleep with it. It's just that after going through the entire day with a throbbing arm, shoulder & caller bone and to have it stop as abruptly as it started. Well one could say I felt alive again. Ready to conquer the world... Or at least that quilt I've been contemplating starting. And as sweet as the relief was it seems to have been rather short lived. But I am exhausted and can't stop yawning so I shall try and hit the sack anyways.

It's how the cookie crumbles....

I'm not a fan of raisin.. it's kinda killing my snack... granola and yogurt. Tomorrow is Tuesday.. groceries shopping day... we're all out of the plain stuff so I will have to pick some up. If I don't forget that is...

This evening was kinda odd... and it threw me for a loop. Although prepared for it, still not... Break ups. Their never easy. And although this isn't your typical "break up" scenario the similarities are bewildering... The awkwardness of not being sure how to behave around each other... the selective memory loss... forgetting what caused the break up to begin with, only remembering the good times. Maybe if we got back together it wouldn't be all that bad. Uhhh.....

I think about school... or the absence of it... every day. I don't know that I would have been able to pull it of so I'm not regretting my decision... And having a year off is a good idea.... To be uncommitted enough to be able to pick up a book to read or to go out for coffee with a friend without having to book two, three months in advance. It's nice. Never less...

You know with the amount of exercise I got today I should NOT be experiencing all this funny stuff.... What's up man? Let's stick to the plan! Listening to Jem as usual. The song "Save me" should be the theme song to my life.

Save me save me save me wooh

I've gotta stop my mind
Working overtime
It's driving me insane
It will not let me live
Always so negative
It's become my enemy

Save me ah ah save me ah ah
save me ah wooh
Save me ah ah save me ah ah
save me ah wooh

Why would I think such things
Crazy thoughts have quick wings
Gaining momentum fast
One minute I am fine
The next I've lost my mind
To a fake fantasy

And none of these
thoughts are real
So why is it that I feel
So cut up and so bad
I need to take control
Coz my mind is on a roll
And it isn't listening to me

Save me ah ah save me ah ah
save me ah wooh
[thinking and thinking]
Save me ah ah save me ah ah
save me ah wooh
[thinking and thinking]

Mirror mirror on the wall
Who's the dumbest of them all
Insecurities keep growing
Wasted energies are flowing
Anger, pain and sadness beckon
Panic sets in in a second
Be aware it's just your mind
And you can stop it anytime

Save me ah ah save me ah ah
save me ah wooh
[thinking and thinking]
Save me ah ah save me ah ah
save me ah wooh
[thinking and thinking]

Ok so here we go
If it works I'll let you know
One two three I say stop


Picasa is not working with me today otherwise I'd be posting more pics.

It's 10:25pm and there is still a few items on my to-to list that could handle being taken care of. I hate waking up knowing that even though I have yet to set my feet out of my bed I am already behind the schedule. I'm off...

Ever been so tired that your just too tired to go to bed? Well that's how I feel. That and the fact that I have spent about... well I'm not even sure how many hours in the kitchen today.. . a LOT. But it was all good. It was my Mama's 50th birthday party and it's not often that that comes around. It was nice to be able to celebrate with her... I should post you a picture of the phenomenal cake.... oh wait that wasn't even my camera.. oh well. We'll have to see what I can do cuz that was just the coolest thing even if i do say so myself.... I should make a gallery of all the cakes I've made.

Brother I'm really loving Jem.. I listen to it every time I'm working on the computer... and sometimes in the mornings too. You'd think I'd be sick of it by now... sometimes I even feel like I am on the verge of it.. but by the time I am at the computer again I realize how much I was missin' it. And ever time the next song comes on I think, " This is one of my top favorites." But truth be told I think that way every time. But really... "Maybe I'm Amazed" is got to be my fav... which is odd because I wasn't all that crazy about it at first. And then there is "Wish I" which is a bit of a snappy tune... and of course "They" is a great song with great lyrics but that one I've been listening to for a long time. "24" kicks but too.. I love the.... violin is it? In the background?

I'm so tired but I refuse to go to sleep.. it's still not THAT late... it's only 11:59...but then again Conrad kept me up till after 2 A.M. last night. (And yah all wonder why I'm applying to a mental institute.)

I'm working tomorrow which I'm not looking forward to all that much. I can't really complain. It's not like I'm putting in fourty hours a week or anything even remotely close but neverless... Ahh, it'll be alright but in the meantime I'm just not diggin it. We will be working on our Mother's day gifts. Jewelery boxes but shhhhh.. it's a surprise. Then playing some games. Hopefully it will work out well. I should plan out the agenda for the next couple of weeks....

Signing of now... good night.
