Cinnamon Danish

Ya know what? I am okay. I am okay with the fact that my "Merry Meeting" (thanks K) didn't take place. Disappointed, yes, but okay nonetheless. I had a really good conversation with the AOC last night. Two of them in fact. And maybe some of his confidence that our "meeting" will take place at some point is rubbing off on me. It's just so hard for me to trust what people tell me. I just have such a problem believing that someone would actually like me, so when things like this happen, I always think it's because the person is "avoiding" . . . maybe that's because that's what I do. So . . . keep your fingers crossed for me.

I have mentioned that even though I really like my strength/resistance training sessions at the gym, I absolutely cannot stand going in to do cardio? . . . I have been in four days in a row to do cardio this week! And today I actually want to go. I think it's something you have to get used to, and then like bagel and coffee addictions it becomes a necessity.

I slept so well last night for once. Josh actually called and woke me up instead of the other way around. He called just to tell me that the world was ending and the sky was radioactive. Sure enough, I looked outside and the sky had the weirdest reddish, orangish glow . . . but it cleared up soon. Hmmm . . . don't know what it was, but Josh needs to stop being so dramatic.

I stepped out again this morning and tried the cinnamon DANISH bagel. Mary, the bagel, attendee must think I'm going nuts after months and months of only ever ordering an everything or a cheddar herb.

Because of the black background (that I know you've had forever and ever), when I clicked on your link meaning to click on my future Brother-in-law's blog, I thought I was reading my future brother-in law's blog.

It makes so much more sense knowing that it was your blog I was reading vs. his blog. (phew).

Umm, wow.
That's funny. You should know that whenever you're reading crazy rantings you are in my home.

I know I should. It was the weirdest darn thing. I was reading the part about the two single, student women and was thinking "Why is Steve writing about this, is he making this story up? Why?" I finished and was thinking "I have no clue what to say to him. That was the strangest thing he's ever written."

Then, I glanced up and saw "Que?" and went, "wait a minute ... hey, this is Elizabeth's blog!" Then I had to re-read everything so that it made sense.

Then I started giggling, which was wholly inappropriate for your entry. But I was just soooo relieved that Steve hadn't lost his mind. NOT inferring in any way that YOU have, BTW.

Am I Going To Die? I just got stung for the first time ever by a wasp . . . So far so good . . . I can still breathe, I haven't swelled up like a balloon, yet . . . But it hurts and itches like crazy!!! It's almost the end of the semester and I am completely swamped! Two projects, two papers, and three finals, all in the next 3 weeks . . . Somehow I'll handle it. I've actually all of sudden "woken up" where school is concerned. I've been in such a daze for like the last 7 or 8 months. The AOC has changed my life as I knew it . . . in good and bad ways!!! Bad because he takes up too much of my thoughts . . . and I need all the brain capacity that I can get!!! Somehow, after years of barely even talking to anyone at work, and only a couple of years of actually being a little more friendly with my co-workers, I seem to have been sucked up in "office politics" and I HATE it! I used to really like going to work . . . now I just want to quit!! It still...

DIY Faux Brick Wall with German Schmear

Written February 14, 2021, when I tried to start a  WordPress blog , but failed because I'm old and it's too complicated. My estranged (?), separated (?), I don't know what, husband, and I actually worked on this together.  I watched 1,000 YouTube videos and read another 1,000 posts on how to do this.  In the end, I took a little from here and a little from there. The faux brick paneling was bought from Home Depot.   We cut the seams with a Ryobi jigsaw , used liquid nails and a Ryobi nail gun to attach the panels, and used joint compound mixed with a bit of water for the schmear.  It's a perfectly, imperfect technique.  I practiced a little, but decided to just jump in and let the wall take on a life of it's own.  I will warn that the joint compound dries much whiter than you think it will.  Use sparingly if you want to see more brick. Once the wall was finished, I painted the other walls Sherwin Williams Perfect Greige .  Shelves and floor...
"He's Just Not THAT Into You" Sheesz...did someone really need to write this book? Why couldn't women just be left alone in their lonesome deceiving torture upon themselves. No, really...seriously...we like not knowing the truth and playing games with our own minds. What will we have to talk about with our friends if we can't say, "What do you think he meant by this?" If everytime you have to question a man's motives or make excuses for him, and the answer to everything is simply, "He's just not all that into you"...there will be no glimmer of hope...none whatsoever...a girl won't even be able to fool herself into thinking that she can ever possibly find someone. I know I know I know...the truth hurts, and the truth also sets you free...but you'll have to be very secure in yourself and not prone to beating yourself up in order for the truth to really set you free...otherwise the truth only makes it harder to move on. So, thi...
