Kale, I hated it with a passion. Did everything known to kiddom to get out of eating it. I would even have brusselsprouts rather then Kale.
Blah blah blah... I still will not eat the stuff. Give me carrots, spinach, or squash, but do not make me eat that evil Kale. |

And I still cannae sleep. Not one whit of drowsiness crosses these eyes and I must awaken in the early morrow. Insomnia is the blessed lover who I'd wish nothing but ill will. However, she hovers over me like a stalking predator, playing with her delectable food of sleep. She chases sleep from my eyes as she silently whispers to me, "Awaken and play, play some more with me"
Still the intended evil that she is, I must do nothing but obey. As I sit and stare at my trappings, the leeching of my energies that are drawn from the very marrow of my being.
I will however, attempt to unshackle myself from the chains of insomnia, and persuade my lover, my life, my sleep, to allow me to dream with her once more. |

The hightlights:
Mom got a job a at 'The Healing Place'. She loves it.
Bri-Bri got his first girlfriend. Met her, cool person.
Koddie and Duckie keep dangling me with the prospect of moving out. Stop TEASING ME!
Have started playing putt-putt with Air and Bri-Bri.
Still spend way too much time online.
Lost 13 lbs and regained 20.
Work is progressing... slowly.
Can't write much these days... my muse died.
Spydie made me a KILT! Got to see someone who I missed for ages as well. (jumps up and down with glee)
Went to Kitty's reception. Saw a lot of people. Am very happy that she is happily married to someone that she loves. (I don't know why I must say this but it is not a slam on Nez)
Going to try my hand at L5R with a new group of people (along with Koddie and Duckie)
Learning to play guitar.
Today I'm going to the state fair with Bri-Bri and Air. It should be a touch cooler, but you know that the water is going to be way overpriced, along with everything else. It should be fun, along with the normal shinanigans that we do when the three of us are together. I thought about showing up wearing a kilt and putter. I'd wear a top of course... I think, but I didn't want to weird everyone out when we went to Denny's at EP.
A friend of mine has lost a custody battle with her ex-husband. I feel really sad for her because she fought so hard to keep her son. I don't want to go into specifics because the majority of what I have hear is hearsay from her and while I trust her not to lie to me, it sounds a bit bias that this man is such an evil sob and I have never met him.
There is an interesting thing about people who think too highly of themselves. One is the fact that they don't seem to notice that they are acting to high and mighty. The second they have this self-importance issue that they think that they can simply cause people to break up and it be their fault.
Its annoying. If a couple can't stay together( in a monogamous relationship), its usually not a third person's fault unless there is infidelity. There are usually underlying issues that the third person doesn't even know exists. So to say that they are even partially responsible for a break-up is erronious at best and arrogant at worst (that is depending on how they think that they interfered).
People who think like that need a proctologist to get their head of their ass.
To the people who have not see me jump up and down with glee:
Its a bit like a little kid getting to see something special for the first time, and can not contain themselves. (S)He jumps up and down going 'oh boy oh boy oh boy'. Now imagine a grown 250 lbs man doing that with glee and clapping. That was a sight to behold. |

| Valentine's Day Doctor's Appointment. |

I get to go see the doctor today about my blood pressure and heart pulse. So I spend today having blood drawn and tests done. Things looked good this morning with 131/78 71 pulse.
And for those of you who know a bit about me know what I think of V-Day.
This year I'm going to say something different.
Tell the one you love, that you love them.
Tell the one you like, you care and think about them.
Tell the one you have a spark for that you do.
Happy Valentine's Day, cherish the one you are with. |

All I know is that Wednesday I have to go to the doctor to see just how much damage I have done to my body. Another happy flippin' V-Day for me.
I've been diagnosed, just from an examination with type 2 hypertension. The beta-blocker that I am on has dropped my heart rate from 180/100 96 pulse to about 138/88 with a 80 pulse, and even lower after I wake up. My panic attacks are worse though because I don't have the ablitity to clamp down on my emotions so it comes out as a jumbled mess. *note to self no more chinese food for me *EVER**
Just in case I did tell you guys with my last (way back when) post, my job became perminate in August. That means no more worrying about if tomorrow will be my last day, or at least I will have some warning that I'm screwing up badly enough to get fired. One less thing that I should have to worry about.
*BTW* anyone know of a good place to work where they don't age or weight discriminate?
Its a longer post to tell you guys what in the heck happened to me. But here is a summary.
Got a job.
Landed in the hospital again.
Missed an important meeting (Halloween) that probably resulted in a loss of a friend. (Over slept and couldn't own up to it.)
Found out just how engrossed Air is to his fundimentalist side.
Worst. Christmas. Ever. (gifts were great, I just could only give one gift to one person, and it was nessessary to do so. No decorations. No Church. Auntie acting like a complete jerk.)
Mom's still alive.
Roomies are ok. Actually, Koddie and I started hitting it off again when he stopped working nights.
Over all, I'm alive and kicking, if nothing else. |

Its odd to see my life to turn into a big fat soap oprea. Home. Friends. Work. Everyone seems to have this chaotic curse of things going shit deep wrong. Left is right and up is down. So I decided to try to bury my head in the sand *again*... this time someone else called me on it. While I will discuss the other things that have been making my life hell there is one aspect that I want to fix right now.
A little over a month ago Kit left Nez. Now most times I try to consider everyone's feelings in the matter before either sitting on the fence, which I do most times, or choosing a side. Instead of sitting on the fence I did choose a side and of course someone who had nothing to do with it thinks that I don't like her because of it. You can hear the bashing of my skull against the desktop as we speak. Anyway, appearently this person has left me emails and phone messages. Now, I have never received any messages, nor emails *BUT* (and this is a big and important but) I have seen some of her comments on my livejournal. So, I do have to ask myself, am I even subconcouisly punishing her for something that has nothing to do with her?
While the answer is a resounding maybe, I have to point out to myself that Arcane and Kit has made efforts to make plans with me. You see, it is a real rareity that someone comes over to my house to see me and to spend time with me. They usually come over to spend time and hang out with Koddie. Its not me feeling sorry for myself or anything, its simple fact. Hell, even my mother has only come over to my house once since I moved over a year ago, and that was on Christmas. I'm always going to her house. So when Arcane came over to see me I was happy that it happened.
But as I have already have said, if there has been messages, by phone or email to contradict it, I have not received them. If, my gentle and not so gentle readers, you recall a few months ago I actually had a friends only thingy that showed the email that I do check. I no longer use spritespitfire@aol.com, and I haven't since a couple of months before the split.
*quick editting note before I go further, I just received a nudge from someone else who is on my friends list. I'm a bad bad neglectful friend *hugs**
But me being me, I am giving the benifit of the doubt, and that I am usually an idiot about friends anyway considering how many times people have seen me drop off the face of the planet; so here goes.
Melissa, I'm sorry. I have been ducking out and not being with the people who truely want my company. I wish to make amends for that considering you are my friend and that I do care for you, although I appearantly don't show it. So, to make up for it, let me know when your days off are and I will make it a point to hang out with you. Most of my schedule is M-F and I get home around 6ish or so. I can usually catch a bus down to Bardstown directly from work. Monday nights are Trivia Nights at Flanagans, Wednesday nights are dinners at the church I attend, Saturdays during the day time I hang out with Arcane but usually am free after 4pm or so. Some Fridays I will be hanging out with Glamkit. Some of my Sundays are going to be with my mother or gaming in a four person gaming group.
So try dropping me a line after 7ish tonight, or 6:30 tomorrow night or Saturday after around 4, and I will make time to hang out with you. My only request is that we do it out of our homes like in the highlands or something like that. I haven't been out of the house as much as I would like.
I hope you will accept my apology. |

And yes I misspelled update on purpose boys and girls.
That is because my special letter for the day is "Y"...( Read more... )
Ok now that I have gotten that out of the way on with the real update.
This past weekend I finally got over my kingsized sinus cold, just in time to have half the staff out of the office for that Monday. This whole week has been devistatingly hard on my body, particularly my eyes. I accidently bent the frames of my glasses this week so I have to go out and have them bent back into shape. So I have been without eyeballs for the week. On the upside, I was able to see my mom on Sunday, she's doing alright, though the visit was cut short because she had to go to a meeting at church.
Monday was fun, trivia night was a blast because we came in dead last. However, I am 99% sure that we purposefully self destructed with some of the answers we gave. Kitty, Arcane, Cheeky, and myself were doing our worst appearently, and came in dead last.
Not much else happened this week, that I wish to devulge other then the fact that someone else got the job I interviewed for. However, I was told that I was a 'strong' canidate, and the person who interviewed me told me that I would be considered for any future openings in the department. And just for the record, the only reason I didn't get the position, I am 100% sure, was because she had more qualifications then I did, otherwise I would be employed now.
Such is life.
I'm still a little down from the experiance, but it showed me that I have a lot more skill-wise to offer then say a year ago. So I will let you guys know what is going on, and hopefully I will find an opening somewhere else in the company that I am temping at.
