Marathon Sunday

Can't believe tomorrow is Marathon Sunday! I'll be out there cheering the runners on! What an ambitious, inspirational undertaking for all those runners. I am in awe of their strength and determination.

I've been thinking alot that I really need to make a concerted effort to get new friends. I'm tired of being the "weekday friend" to most. On the weekends, it's as if though i'm dead. Hey, I actually could die and most would not know about it since my family has never really met any of them and for the most part wouldn't be able to contact anyone. I've removed just about everybody from my phone. Why have a number for folks who actually have lives and don't have time to call or write? I'm happy with that decision. Similar to the entire month of August, I will not be sending out any more emails to anyone. I will however respond if anyone drops me one but for the most part, I'm not here. Shouldn't pose any problems since nobody really stays in touch with me. I'm a ghost. Only fitting to be so especially on All Souls Day.

I didn't do anything today except sleep and watch a documentary (Who Killed the Electric Car). Very good documentary on how the oil companies, car manufacturers, and White House have virtually screwed us all. GM must be kicking themselves for killing the EV1. It truly was a project killed by ten thousand little cuts.

Going to lay back in bed and sleep. Get an extra hour. YEA! More tomorrow.

Weird Dream about Jason

No time right now but just a quick note. Had this weird dream about Jason. I was at a party at this mansion that had amazing views of some city and there were umbrella covered tables on the patio. I was sitting at a table across from him and he was holding my hand, rubbing it saying that he had missed me very much. That's all I remember about that. The next part I remember is being in a room where it looks like I was packing my clothes. At the bottom of the closet was a wheat colored bag that had the Pura Vida logo on it. I asked someone passing by in the hall how it got here and they said it was delivered with my name on it. I woke up before I could see what's in the bag. Will revisit this post in a few hours.

11:15 p.m. - Well give me a little credit for at least getting back to this post! Was very crazy busy at work. Not complaining since I'm employed, have medical benefits, and it's affording me the opportunity to reach even more of my many goals! So... my take on the dream. I think it represents all of the men in my life who I have truly cared about at some point will realize they let go of a good thing. Always the girl who is the friend but they never could see that I would have made a good girlfriend. I think the dream represents an event that will happen in the near future. Jason is probably just a symbolic figure in this dream but who knows.

I felt achy but good today. Wore my cat ears and bell collar all day. Was looking and feeling pretty darn cute and ALIVE WITH YOUTH! I still can't believe that at the end of this year I'll be 35. I feel like I'm still in my 20's...only difference is that I actually love myself now more than I did then and I feel very wise (and hope to get wiser as the years go by). I got my ticket to the show. I will finally get to see the Lion King. Have a great seat! Who knew that a ticket for one would land you an excellent seat! The show will make for a good birthday even if I will be alone. But then again, I'm never really alone...I know God is in my life and on my side. Everything in due time. On Sunday I volunteer as an official cheerer for cancer runners. I'm excited to help out on such a worthy event. It will be me running/walking in 2009 or 2010. Maybe by then I'll have people who would actually support me and cheer me on. Even if I don't, I'm still going to accomplish that goal and have high spirits! It's late. I'm sleepy. Thank goodness we get back our extra hour tomorrow night (or should I say Sunday morning). My body has been feeling the deficit for three weeks! It's amazing just how in tune I am with my body now. It's a great feeling. More tomorrow.

McCain (I'm Literally rolling my eyes)

Wah Wah Wah...that's what John McCain sounds like...an annoying crying little boy who couldn't get the lollipop and has decided to throw himself on the floor in the middle of the store and make a scene. In my personal opinion, McCain is angry that Obama was able to succeed at the political game that all other presidential candidates were able to do financially. Race is always a factor in this country. You can't tell me otherwise. If Obama wasn't black, McCain wouldn't even bother to complain that his opponent opted out of public financing for the campaign. Quite frankly, why would the candidates need to even consult about that?!? It's a personal, strategic choice. I find it ironic that McCain is spouting that he wasn't consulted in advance by Obama in that regard. Isn't McCain's whole platform against Obama that he allegedly speaks to openly about his strategic planning when it comes to the war in Iraq and Afghanistan? Why would Obama say out loud..."oh I'm going to raise as much money as I can to beat you?" Duh. Does McCain even hear himself when he speaks or is he taking the same cues as his running mate, Sarah Palin, and letting the speechwriters coach him on his talking points? BTW...we don't see Ms. Sarah too much on the news or next to McCain during these last few days. Gee...I wonder why? LOL.

Anywho, the past few days have been busy and I'm also feeling a bit groggy. Need that extra hour of sleep. Thank goodness we get it this weekend. I better go. Time is short as usual. More hopefully later. (Better start using the word hopefully since lately I can never get back to my blog thoughts...so much swirling in my mind). Ciao!

A Little Green to Brighten My Day

Wearing my favorite color, feeling cute. It's dark and ugly outside. Going to take my lavender umbrella today since everyone else will have the usual black uniform. LOL. Still have a low grade headache. I feel like I haven't been talking about anything noteworthy the last few blogs. I'm slipping. During lunch let's talk everybody's favorite subject...politics! What's with this half assed plot to kill Obama?!? McCain refers to a 2001 blub Obama made about redistribution? LOL. Oh my. Gotta go. More later.

Nasty Day on Tap

Looks like tomorrow is shaping up to be a nasty day. Of course that would be the day I get invited to something that sounds interesting but if I hadn't already committed I would come straight home. There's nothing like being out in bad weather where your commute home isn't easy afterwards. Oh well...tomorrow will be over soon enough. I'm really tired and sleepy. Going to lay out my clothes and lay down. Feel like I'm losing brain cells since there's nobody to debate with on anything. I'm going to an election party next week so that should be fun. Get to meet new people.

Got a "how are you" text from Kev. He's repeating the same pattern. Not going to respond. What is it with these guys? No time to date you and then when you ignore them that's when they want to come back. Ridiculous. O.K. going to sleep. Volunteering at marathon again this Sunday. Should be fun! In a year or two i'll be cheering myself on as I walk/run my way over the 26.2 mile course!

Perma Weekends

Weekends go by so fast! It's already late Sunday night and I feel like I need another day to just simply "BE". Another uneventful weekend. Normal routine. No surprises. Just me, myself, and I. I fear that I am getting so use to being alone that if anyone ever decided to grace me with a little bit of time I don't know if I would be receptive to it. Oh well...don't really have to worry about that right now anyway right? Had two interesting h.w. writeups about if I have made an impact in any of their lives considering all of my "friends" didn't have any time to respond to my questions. Guess it's really a way of them telling me we aren't friends. Can't really blame them for anything though. People like me don't have friends. I don't feel sad about it anymore although I do still feel very alone. I better go to sleep. Really tired. More tomorrow.
