sand storms and whatnot

Everynight for the past 3 weeks this woman comes home at exactly 9:45 everynight. How do I know this? No, this woman is not me. This is a woman that lives in the apartment across the hall from me. And I know what time she comes home every night because she always announces it, loudly, before she closes the door. It always reminds me of I Love Lucy when Desie (sp) comes home and says "Lucy, I'm home!". It is one of the upsides to living in an apartment I think. You can make up lives for all of these people that live so close to you, yet you never really get to know.
I got my wake up call at 9:30 this morning. We were on the road at 10:45. We arrived at the softball field at 12:15. It was so hot! I literally had sweat running down my back. I very gross sensation I don't particularly like. I can't imagine what the girls were feeling out on the field. Luckily they had towels they would soak in ice water and wear around their necks. Holly's team won. The other team wasn't really that good, but I enjoy watching Holly play.
After the game I was waiting by the fence for Holly when I looked over into another field and saw this I wish I had gotten more pictures, but it dissapated too quickly. I'm not sure how this phenomenon happens because it wasn't windy at all! and there were no clouds. I'll have to google it later.

Lost Girl

Lost girl protects what is precious to her Can you say the same for yourself sir Hidden pockets of misery and divine Islands of hope if only they could shine Lost girl pushes away heartfelt love Not deserved, bloodied and shoved Unexplainable expectations she's given A heart not beating, held broken, riven Lost girl bites back urges to cry A scream past parted lips, only a sigh Shaking inside, flying apart, unraveling Logic and reason, following, traveling Lost girl can't tread water any longer Deep breath, under, float, stronger Leave behind all that exists here Keep it safe, hidden from fear Lost girl wants to turn back, embrace Behind closed eyes, only her face Accept what's been said and done Move forwards, towards the rising sun

Losing Money

That's what my bosses are doing today. They make us work on Memorial Day and then question why we aren't busy. But hey, why should I care? I'm getting paid to sit here and read. It's just that sometimes I can't help feeling I'm stuck in a Saturday detention. Doesn't help that half of the employees called in 'sick' today. Maybe I'm just jealous and bitter. I did have a wonderful weekend though! We went to the lake on Saturday and couldn't have asked for better weather. Had a BBQ, soaked up some sun, went home and slept. I watched Trainspotting while I unpacked some more boxes. It was disturbing to say the least and the baby, TRAUMATIZING. Johnny Lee Miller is absolutely adorable though. On Sunday we went to the theater and saw Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End . I was a little 'iffy' about it because I had read it was over 2 1/2 hours long. The second one wasn't very good in my opinion, but I decided to give this one a ...

So this is INCREDIBLY rambly...just had to get some things out! Life is.... interesting I feel..... everything One moment I feel very adult-like. I have responsibilities, a career (even if it's one I don't like). I have bills to pay and I'm budgeting my money. I make wise choices and investments. I help people with their problems and I am a shoulder to cry on. I fix things and I'm in complete control. I know how the world works and I feel comfortable with that. In between this breath and the next I'm on my ass. Things aren't like that at all. Am I just fooling myself? Is it a coping mechanism for us because we are so programed to think that way? Do we really believe we have to be in control of everything? The world is constantly changing, like the ocean. We are constantly changing. I have a childlike desire to see and experience everything. Good or bad, it doesn't matter. I want to feel pain, extreme pain along with happiness and complete joy, e...
