Pause Me
Relativity
Einstein was a genius. I hate his theory. I hate it because it’s so true. Time is so incredibly relative sometimes. It’s maddening to think about it. It’s frustrating to experience it. It’s just that time moves so quickly on occasion, that it takes me by surprise. I don’t realize anything has happened until I look back and see the whole picture. I see everything that has happened, everything that has taken place, people I’ve met and people I’ve said goodbye to. It’s pretty mind-boggling.
I’ve taken a break from reading House of Leaves. I was getting bogged down. It’s a very…’full’ book. I switched to the The Golden Compass. A little bit lighter, although, I’ve found it’s pretty complicated as well. But it’s fun to follow Lyra on her many adventures. I’m very interested to see how it’s going to be made into a movie.
I’m also really trying to focus on my Star Wars project. Progress is being made, but it’s a little bit slower than I would like. Partially it’s my fault and partially it’s the clients. I know for sure what is supposed to go into the drawing; we’re just debating on HOW all of these things should go into the drawing. I want to jump forward and start on it, which is pretty much impossible if the layout is still up in the air.
Then there are the scarves and hat orders. My grandmother and mother taught me how to crochet a long time ago. I’ve made blankets and such, but I wanted to teach myself more. I wanted to experiment with different yarns. So I bought a book, Not Your Mother’s Crochet I think is the title. It’s VERY helpful and I would definitely recommend it. Anyway, I used it to learn how to crochet hats. I brought one to work and now everyone wants one. That really wasn’t my goal; I just wanted to learn for myself, just to prove to myself that I could. I suppose it’s good that people like them and want one…but it’s also another burden in a way. I’ll walk into my room and see all of this yarn just sitting there and I feel guilty. Not too guilty though. I still manage to walk by it and grab the remote or pick up my book.
So, basically I have a pretty full plate, but nothing that I’m pulling my hair out over. I’m definitely looking forward to my vacation this weekend though. It is MUCH needed. I need a break from certain people and places. I need to recharge my batteries. I need to watch the sun set over the sand dunes on the beach.

What?! You're coming 8 hours over here to Florida to sit around and watch dunes when there are a million things to be done?! There are museums! There are Forts you are not yet acquainted with and of course there is the famous flea market. You really think you want to sit on some sandy old beach?!
ReplyDeleteHahaha! Teasing. ^_^ I think you can do whatever the heck you want on this vacation. Your life has been so full that this is exactly what you need and I can't wait to have the pleasure to escort you to...go sit around and look at sand and water all day...like I do...everytime I drive by anything in my town....Yay. Fun...*LOL* Joking!
