1) Don't have the time to blog mindlessly at work any longer. I barely have time to check my email at work. This is actually a great thing. Since my last counselor psuedo-diagnosed me with ADD, I figure a job that keeps me "busier than a one legged man in a butt-kickin' contest" is a good thing. It makes the day go fast. Work day goes fast, and then on to the fun that is my "free time". Today in my lil' Sunday School class (I always feel 5 when I refer to it as "sunday school") we discussed our passions. It got me thinkin'... What am I passionate about? Well, I know what I'm not passionate about.... a) work, b) green beans, c) politics (gasps from all my "politico" friends), and d) people who waste my time. So... I figure this brings me closer to knowing what I am passionate about, right? Updates on this topic at a later time. I'm going to give it some thought.
2) I still have not resumed my home internet service, although my salary has increased making this a possibility. I've been slow and cautious to add new expenses into my budget. My phone call to AT&T internet is somewhere on the horizon. This will help with my ability to blog at my leisure (and not my freigbhor's). So, I apologize to my bloggy friends (frogs per JenJen- her word not mine, brillant right?) for not being attentive to your posts by reading and commenting. I still catch some here and there, but must read them off my iPhone. Since I'm visually impaired this is sometimes more trouble than it's worth-- no offense. Excuses, excuses.
3) I don't really got much going on to blog about. I haven't been very introspective lately. I see this as contentment/happiness and have not given it too much thought. Just enjoying the bliss. Sigh... bliss (excuse me while I float on my cloud of nothing much to complain or think about-- ahhh).
4) I've also started a new hobby.... homemade bath products. For those of you on the receiving end of one of the Christmas batches of sugar scrubs... it needed more oil. Bring it back to me, and I'll hook you up. It started with "Suzy's Scandalous Sugar Scrub", and am now concocting a "Suzy's Sexy Skin Butter". It should be ready by the end of the month. Website... also on the horizon.
So, I'll just give some updates on things that my followers (followers of my blog... no, I'm not going to ask you to drink the toxic Kool-aid. I don't fancy myself a prophet) might be curious to know:
My friend Cat: (Orange Tic Tacs and Creamed Corn and BFF the College years). I flew to Austin to see her on Tuesday, and she is better. We got pedis, went to see a movie, and took turns chilling on the heating pad that resides on her sofa (fab idea). We also dined on some mean breakfast tacos (a speciality in Austin). She finished her last radiation treatment before Christmas, and she is back in Austin reclaiming her groove. She will get her next PET scan in February. Apparently, the radiation keeps working after the last treatment. So, she's still simmering, and we will know more with the next scan. As Tom Petty would say, "The waiting... it's the hardest part."
The job: Still learning (the learning curve sucks), but I really like my boss (he's fair and reasonable, and funny and nice) and my co-workers are the bomb. Seriously, I don't think I've ever worked with such nice people. I would highly recommend an account with this branch. You'll be looked after, and cared about. Nice peeps.
The love life: Uhhhm.... not much going on here to report. But, I'm so content, that I'm finding it difficult to care. Maybe something's around the corner. Life's all about turning corners, right?
So, that's all I got. In the words of Holly Golightly, I'm just a "thumping bore". Sigh. Now, back to watching the newest episode of Desperate Housewives with my freighbor and her new beau. Maybe he has friends? I'm working on it.
