Someday Soon I'll Get It Together

I'm home from work today. I feel like absolute crap. I've been eating horribly, skipping the gym, not sleeping, and kissing strange boys! Not really, but I did kiss T the other night, and I find it funny how I always get sick when I kiss someone new. My immune system is usually pretty strong. I don't get sick easily, but I don't think I can take the direct mixing of germs or something...at least until my body builds up the right antibodies to the new saliva in my life.

I feel like this new guy T is really trying to invade my life, and I think he already has it in his head that I might be his next "one and only". How do I explain to him that I like him, that I'm having fun with him, but that I'm just not ready to "move ahead". I'm pretty sure that he' not a "future prospect". He's just fun for now...for the moment...to keep me from feeling too lonely. I already tried giving him the whole speech about not knowing what I want, or where I'm going, or what in the hell my priorities are. I guess he didn't get it. He was talking about something going on next year in the summer, and it was inferred that I would be there too...um...I don't know if that's happening. It's a little scary.

I WILL NOT skip one day of class this week. I have a huge project due, a test, and a very large review that I need to attend for a test next week. Time to catch up!!! And I WILL make it to work for the rest of the week. I just need to sleep today and try to feel better.

I went shopping with Josh yesterday and bought...the world. I get stuck in the home stores like Bed, Bath, and Beyond, and it's like I can't get out. I love that stuff. So, I bought a whole bunch of stuff to make my kitchen more enjoyable. Maybe I'll cook...maybe.

I also bought two new DVD's - Snatch and Spun. And I bought the Karate Kid box set for Gabby. She loves the Karate Kid. Ok Ok Ok...I do to! "I hate this stupid bike...why can't we just go home and forget this place!!!" When my family lived in Germany we only had one American channel...AFN...so, my sister and I watched a couple of movies over and over again...The Karate Kid, Ferris Buellar's Day Off, and Dirty Dancing...I think Lethal Weapon, too. We are those annoying people that quote the movies while they're playing.

Funny how I don't feel the need to discuss the gym anymore. My new trainer is really good, and there's nothing odd about him. He's really tough. Almost tougher than Aaron the Beast, but he's not as brutal as Aaron...nor as beautiful...and of course, he's ten times better than the Wimp, so now, it's just another part of my day. Nothing exciting to tell about it. I can only discuss my pain so many times, I guess.

I keep forgetting that today is Valentine's Day. Happy Valentine's Day to everyone!!! Especially Jessica - I know you're going to have a GREAT day!!! I personally just want it to be over as soon as possible...

Why in the world am I "Little Miss Chatterbox" this morning??? I don't blog for a week, I contemplate not ever doing it again, and now I'm foaming at the mouth!!!

Dude, did you drink the coffee from that Frech place again, or did you smoke crack? Love your blog though -- it's good to hear the latest. Gross about you getting sick after kissing T.

Someone was saying on my bus to drink v8 with 1/2 tsp on garlic before you go to bed for at least 2 nights and presto better!
Ugh! That's not going to work for me! I hate V8! I'm feeling much better today though! Physically, anyway!

Happy belated Valentine's day. I hope you feel better soon. :) *kissy, kissy*

IT sounds to me that AOC is leaving you on the back burner. Don't stand for that, just go for T and forget about AOC. It sounds like he's just not into you, sorry. I'm no relationship expert, and I really don't know your situation with AOC.

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...
Time to Share? I have a huge crush. I have a huge crush on a man I've never met in person. I have a huge crush on a man who does things that are very cool. Yesterday in the mail I got the book that he sent me...the book that he wrote...a book about all of his travels and adventures. The more I read this book, the less confident I start to feel about this being a possible "match". I have no idea what I can offer this older, more sophisticated, more worldly man. The biggest adventures in my life are grappling with 18-year old freshmen for a parking space at school, finishing a set of push-ups and pull-ups at the gym, or wrestling my daughter to the ground for a bath. Maybe I can teach him all about Sponge-Bob Square Pants? This is again one of those times where things seem too good to be true. The emails we send back and forth would suggest that there is a great interest and curiosity on both sides, and that something really good could possibly come from this!!! His ...
