Wireless fountain

It's just a fancy way to say...NEEDS BATTERIES. LOL. People kill me really. Well it's sitting on my desk, looking all ZEN and stuff. However, it isn't causing any Zen at all. It actually distracts me more than I like. I keep rearranging the rocks that come with it. Knowing fully that I'm never going to be satisfied with where they are EVER! And the trickling water sound makes me wanna pee every 4 (yes 4) minutes even if I don't have to go. Then I wonder when the batteries are going to run out so that I can change them or rather have some peace from it. Either way I'm screwed.

But I like it. Go figure.

dreams

I used to love my dreams. I have lucid ones. Yes the actual ones you know you are dreaming and can manipulate stuff in. I have plenty of them. Recently though...by an unwilling attempt to understand them I've been looking them up on the highly generalized dream websites. Sometimes I obsess over things. Anyhow, my dreams have become these long sagas of tragedy and humor. Like something written by an 18th century writer trying to make it big but keeps failing at it. I keep thinking there are these deep meanings in what my brain is doing...and possibly not. Either way it sucks having a long drawn out drama happening in your head not letting you really sleep even though you really are asleep. What's up with that? I wish my brain would leave me alone. I can't even get away from myself. LOL. No, that's not really funny.

Mom

Mom's doing well. Much better than past years. She got picked to be in the town paper. Cool, I think. The boys are excited about it. It won't be up until 3/11...but that's soon enough. Once it's up I'll post a link to it. She called me all excited that they took 50 pictures of her today. She went to Ross to buy a new shirt just for today. With all the shirts she already has...but it is a special day. Maybe we can scrap the article when it comes out. I'm glad she is happy.

Silent auction

They had a silent auction here at work. Well it's actually the second one they hold. I didn't bid on anything the last time...nothing caught my attention. But this time I got a few cool things:

wireless water fountain
Hello Kitty McDonald's toy
Bath and Body Basket
Necklace
Ring
Fondue maker
Tin jewelery box
Orange pillows

I think that's all I got

Like if I had a lot of room in our house...but we don't...but who in their right mind can pass up on Hello Kitty? Even if it's just a McD's toy!

Russell

Russ...he's my dog and my current child. He eats what he can and then throws up on the carpet. I really wish we had wood floors sometimes. But then Russ couldn't chase the laser because he would loose his footing on wood...maybe it would be funny to see him crash around the house on wood floors...but then I'd have to pay all the vet bills of broken bones and probably get on PETA's bad side and then they wouldn't send me any more address labels with my name on it...spelled correctly.

LOL.

I kill myself sometimes.

hobby

In light of my busy post. I've decided to take up scrapbooking. I really don't know why. Maybe to keep me busy, maybe to share something with mom, maybe just to spend money...I don't know. Maybe just to pacify Kris, maybe just because there isn't anything else meaningful for me to do right now in my life but cut pictures and paste them on paper.

my b-day

Imma 31 now. woohoo. just less than halfway to 60. I think about that a lot. In fact I think of a lot of things that others don't know about. I keep hearing some buzz...like a cell phone buzz...but nothing is buzzing. I'm going insane I think. Maybe it's like that guy, OMG, I just forgot what I was going to write.

Well anyhow happy b-day to me...which was about 2 weeks ago.

time passes

by so damn quickly. I've been busy, but not really busy. If you can call my life busy. The more you say it the more the word sounds retarded. Sandy doesn't like the word retarded...maybe I shouldn't use it much. I guess I've just become a jumble of un-busy-ness-but-busy. Maybe I just look busy. I don't know. I feel busy sometimes...more times than not. I look around but I don't seem to finish or do much. So how can I be busy? You tell me. Life hasn't been the best lately...I don't think. So trying to be busy or maybe look busy? Trying to keep my mind busy from what I can tell you. I would tell you but I keep it in my head for a reason. Maybe I'm just a nut case wrapped up in a little cute box of busy. Can you be idle-busy?
