A selfie

-

I posted this on my Facebook page and it seems to be getting a lot of attention even though I see "selfies" from toddlers all of the time. Caiden plays with my phone often and I always go through it at night to delete the 30 pictures of the floor, or his forehead, or just blackness. The other night I came across this gem though. He changed the color, there is no filter at all on this. I love it. One of my favorites.
Getting ready for school and I feel like a dinosaur already. Apparently now, we answer quizzes and tests in class using our smart phone or a remote control. I can see where it would be a lot easier on the professor as far as grading goes, but jeeze!! Welcome to the future, that happened fast! So freaking expensive too!! I honestly believe technology is going to be our downfall. (See? I sound like an old timer ha ha!)
I miss Nick and the kids. I wonder how the first week of school went. I hate that it's so awkward that I can't even ask that without it being taken the wrong way or that I could be doing it "for the wrong reasons". I wish I could just mess up his hair and give him a huge hug. I thought about writing a letter and sending a drawing of a transformer battling against Louie but I guess that might just be weird too. As usual I'm just over thinking things. Missing moments, life is so short.
Gotta keep it positive though. Tomorrow is gallery night and I will be taking down my artwork on Saturday evening. A lot of fond farewells and well wishes mixed in with a new artist constantly asking me when I'm vacating and can she vulture my card rack and business card holder. Talk about throwing dirt over me before I'm buried.
Gotta end on a positive note, my medical issue is continuing on the upswing. Fingers crossed. I still find myself having emotional nosedives but even they are coming fewer and far between. It'll all be okay.

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...
