Random ponderings

I hope that I never become one of those moms that has nothing else to talk about but her children. I find that this really annoys people. I don't want to lose all ability to hold an intelligent conversation when I have children.

I think it's really sad that everything I do at my job is done with the intent of going home. It's not really so much about being there as it is about getting out of there.

I wish I had the time and money to go on a road trip.

I hate that my life revolves around my job. I'm sick of it.

A glimpse into my thoughts

How can people be so naive as to think that their decisions don't affect those who love them?

You can be radical and not be crazy, but can you be crazy and not be radical?

I think Jesus is coming back sooner than we realize, and I kinda hope He does.

The money and hours are nice, but ever since my promotion I've stopped loving my job.

I live in a tropical place and still want to take a tropical vacation.

I'm cold.

your voice has broken my defense, let me embrace salvation

So here I sit. On top of five blankets and a brand new mattress. A pretty comfy situation, I'd say.

I got to flip over my Audrey Hepburn calendar today. I can't believe it's already the first of February. Where did that past month go? I am not fond of this sped up time line that life seems to be on. I feel like all I do is blink and a week has gone by. It's crazy.

Moving back home hasn't been as bad as I thought it would. Granted, it's not the best situation, but it isn't bad. I have a job, which I'm thankful for. Plus, it helps fill the time. Other than that, I don't do much besides sleep. I feel like I never get enough. I should be sleeping right now.

I guess that's all I have for an update. My life isn't very exciting right now.

When it hurts you, it hurts you so good

Today I am being made aware of all the missed encounters. Craigslist calls them "missed connections." Craigslist makes me laugh.

Back to the topic at hand. I'm sitting in Starbucks in the library on campus, coffee-less, as the empire that controls the food on campus is ridiculously expensive. So I'm sitting here and I'm watching all of the people that go by, and it's crazy to me that in all of these opportunities, there is no encounter. Most people don't even acknowledge when you look at them, let alone open themselves up to the possibility of a conversation with a stranger. I always hear people complain about how they wish that we, as a society, weren't so disconnected. Yet we perpetuate that disconnect. What are we doing to connect besides complain?

Random thoughts that I tried to make sense of.

I got distracted by a girl in a skirt and Uggs. Need I say more?

I am the thief of hearts, guilty of the charge

How is it already October? Where has this year gone?

I'm missing the season change tonight. I miss seeing the leaves change, and the drop in temperature. Especially the drop in temperature.

Graduation is soon approaching and I'm no closer to knowing what I'm doing than I was when I first started college. Yay!

I'm pretty sure this guy likes me, and the feeling is just not mutual. Not that there's anything wrong with him, I'm just not attracted to him.

I feel scatterbrained tonight. Actually, I've felt like that a lot this week.

I've been spending money like it's going out of style. I really need to stop.

I'm tired, but can't sleep.

I love hurricane season.

If you've been anywhere near a television at all this past week (or basically anywhere besides under a rock) you probably know that there's a storm headed for Florida. Currently said storm is a tropical storm. There is the possibility that it will become a category 1 hurricane, but COME ON PEOPLE. I don't think I've seen anyone panic like this over a tropical storm before. Crist has already declared a state of emergency. Malls are closing down. Houses on my street have had storm shutters up for three days. THREE DAYS. Seriously. Grow up people. You'd think we've never been through a hurricane before.

This makes me laugh. The best part though, is that I'm hearing "hunker down" everywhere.

We built this city on rock and roll

First, I must mention that every time I bend over, it adds insane amounts of pressure to my head. That hurts.

Seeing as how my week has been rather uneventful, what with death causing me to miss work and class, I'm going a little stir crazy. Also, it's the first sunny day that we've had in about a week. My first thought was a trip to the beach, or a park with the river, or something. But then I remembered that my battery in my car is dead, therefore I'm going nowhere. I settled on putting on one of my cute new bathing suits (yeah I have 4 now, it's kind of ridiculous.) and going to hang out by the pool. I headed out of my apartment to get my beach bag out of my car, and taped to my door is a green piece of paper informing me that the pool will be closed for the next two weeks due to these RIDICULOUS renovations that they started in MARCH and were supposed to be done by now. So here I am, stuck inside my apartment. And now? Now it's getting cloudy and will probably rain soon. Seems to be the story of my life as of late.

At least I don't have to wear pants.
