Idyllic... for a while

Yes, my vacation ended... though it felt more like a brief pause. I went back to work on Monday only to have Tuesday and Wednesday off. I was ready to go back to work... or so I had thought. When I got there however, I wanted to scream. It was nice to be back doing my job but I had... issues. I don't want to get into it, it's rather inconsequential.

Tuesday? *smiles* Well, I had stayed up all night Monday night. I was playing DoD with Seth and I ended up watching a movie... oh, and I called Jillian somewhere around four in the morn. *chuckles* Speaking of Jill, she came down Tuesday night after bingo. (have I mentioned that I HATE bingo?) She and I laid and talked for quite some time. In those few quiet moments I was left to realize how content I was... Just her and I in each other's arms, talking and NOT talking, just BEING together. Later we worked on pictures for the dvd we were putting together for her aunt and uncle's anniversary party. She ending up staying the night... So today we finished that dvd. She eventually left and I was left here alone today. Just me and my book. When Mom came home, she and I chatted and I went to run a few errands... Now I'm typing this and I plan on playing some DoD tonight. *grins*

All in all a great few days....


Oh! And I have a few emails that I'd like to share with you. Nothing of major significance but I enjoyed them and want to pass them on without filling anyone's inbox with spam... *smirks* Here they are...

"SOME OF THE BEST THINGS IN LIFE A GUY CAN GIVE YOU FOR FREE"

Ladies, find a guy...

...who calls you beautiful instead of hot.

...who calls you back when you hang up on him.

...who will stay awake just to watch you sleep.

...who wants to show you off to the world when you are in your sweats.

...who holds your hand in front of his friends.


Wait for the one...

...who is constantly reminding you of how much he
cares about you and how lucky he is to have you.

...who turns to his friends and says, "...that's
her."

...who kisses your forehead.


I have learned...

... that you cannot make someone love you. All you can do is stalk them and hope they panic and give in...

... that one good turn gets most of the blankets.

... that no matter how much I care, some people are just
jackasses.

... that it takes years to build up trust, and it only takes suspicion, not proof, to destroy it.

... that whatever hits the fan will not be evenly distributed.

... that you shouldn't compare yourself to others. They are more screwed up than you think.

... that depression is merely anger without enthusiasm.

... that it is not what you wear; it is how you take it off.

... that you can keep vomiting long after you think you're finished.

... to not sweat the petty things, and not pet the sweaty things.

... that ex's are like fungus, and keep coming back.

... age is a very high price to pay for maturity.

... that I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy it.

... that we are responsible for what we do, unless we are celebrities.

... that artificial intelligence is no match for natural
stupidity.

... that there is a fine line between genius and insanity.

... that the people you care most about in life are taken from you too soon and all the less important ones just never go away. And the real pains in the ass are permanent.
