Things I'm thinking Pt. ?

Hello Everyone.

So, I've had a kind of 'eh' week despite some recent developments: I won at chess on Monday, I've seen some amazing 'Intervention' episodes this week, 'How I Met Your Mother' was really funny this week, I'm going to Karaoke tomorrow, I went out for delish margaritas tonight and had my first red velvet cupcake. So many good things and yet...here I am. 10:24 and exhausted despite the fact that I went to bed at 10 last night. That can't be good.

And as if fatigue isn't enough, my 'eh'-ness, I feel, has been leaking into my blog. Unacceptable! On Monday I was so EXCITED about my 'things that make me smile' list but now I'm just...losing...inter...e....s....t in it.

Well, this blog is all about fun, isn't it? And, this blog is all about me, isn't it? So, if something isn't working for me, and I'm not having fun while writing in it, it's OK to take a break and try something else, correct? It's important for me to have fun, by any means necessary, right?

Please say 'yes'. I really want your approval.

So, let me get back into the swing of things here and instead of overthinking my blog, and every word I'm writing, and every picture I'm uploading, let me just write...

Things I'm thinking Pt. who cares?

1) I should go to bed instead of writing this. If I keep writing this, I'm going to get more and more into it. And the more 'into it' I get, the less I'm going to want to go to sleep, and the more tired I'm going to be tomorrow. Maybe it doesn't matter if I'm tired tomorrow, since it's Friday and I work half days and am able to take naps in the afternoon? Is that a chance I'm willing to take?

2) My hands are cold. REALLY cold. Like...I'm sitting in air conditioning or I've just been juggling ice or eating ice cream. But I haven't been doing any of those things. And it's not like I'm hot all over...just my hands.

3) 'Flight of the Conchords' is really funny. REALLY funny. Kate sent me a song of theirs called 'Banter' because I wrote about 'Banter' in an earlier entry today. I know I've talked about them a lot in here, but they're just...so funny! And I should be able to write about how funny they are as long as I think they are funny, shouldn't I?

4) Why do I keep asking my audience questions in here? It doesn't really matter what they say because I'm not going to edit this later. This is the final version. I guess it's nice to consider them, and their opinions, by asking them questions. That's all I'm doing, considering them. Well...maybe I'm not really considering my audience just acknowledging them and their desire to be considered. Because, like I said, I'm not really going to edit their thoughts in here later.

5) Apparently, I will do anything to avoid reading 'Three Cups of Tea'. Even write a blog entry. It's funny that Kristyn just read this book, too. Who's giving her all of those books that she reads? Can she take out books like 'Three Cups of Tea' from the library near her town, or do they only have older books in the library? Is it wrong to assume that there would only be older books in the library because it's in a small village in a developing country? Is the term 'developing country' offensive? Probably.

6) 'It was something like, but not necessarily, 'Schindler's List'. Today is, almost, Holocaust Remembrance Day. How can I celebrate it in a meaningful way? By getting shots to go to Honduras? By napping? By going to Karaoke? Maybe I'll read an article...

7) I should stop spending money. But I won't. When I get bored or feel upset and want to go shopping I should probably just draw a picture or write in a journal or something. I only make so much and now that I'm going to be retroactively charged union dues (so scared)...shiz.

gotta stop. gotta read.
