Thank God for old friends who know just what you need when you are feeling kind of down. Alicia just came by (bearing an iced coffee, i might add). It was really thoughtful of her. I have been kind of sick the last few days and I came home from work really tired today. So when she called up and asked how I was, then heard the tale of my day, she decided to drop by and bring me a treat. It really cheered me up. I think there are people like that every day. Like the friend I talked to the other day. People that just stand out in your mind for being so thoughtful and considerate, or for just the fact that you had a great conversation with them. And whether they know it or not, these people can totally change your day for the better. That's why its so important to be kind to everyone. You never know if you are going to be that person for someone. If you are going to be the person that really "makes their day".

So, yes. it's been awhile. and I am sure that my one reader is very disappointed. But still, there's no point in making up excuses for it, I just forgot about the whole concept of sharing my inconsequential thoughts in a more technical manner than usual. moving on... as we all know, (because the candy companies and greeting card co.'s started the propaganda around new year's) the wonderful holiday of valentine's day is coming up. Now it seems to me that a person has one of two feelings on this subject-very rarely do you get the in between-ers. you either love valentine's, or you hate it. personally, i think it is a pretty nice holiday whether you have a significant other or not. it is just a time to appreciate those in your life that you care about. now with corperate america breathing down the back of your neck, screaming "buy, buy buy!" often that idea gets lost in the confusion. But when you come down to it, this is really not a holiday that is bent...

I don't know exactly what it is, but lately I have really been evaluating my life. Where I stand, and where I'm headed to next. Like looking for a divine plan in the midst of all this seemingly monotonus down time. I guess I'm just wanting some balance. I heard something the other day that finally identified the feeling I have been having. The person said, "I feel like I have reached this high level of mediodocrity". I could relate to that.Wanting more out of the life you are living. Streching each minute to it's fullest extent. But then, maybe it isn't even my life that needs changing, Maybe, it's just a matter of perspective. There is so much to appreciate in life, and for some reason I have become very skeptical of the little things that make every day worth it. Things that inspire people to live great lives, doing great things. I don't really want to be so jaded. I just want to find a way to appreciate life in a new way, despite all the negativ...

Have you ever seen those "Life Sucks Without A Car" commercials? That was my mantra this afternoon. I feel so bad always having to bum rides off of people. But anyways, that's just the way it goes, so I should get used to it for now. For the last week or so, I have had the house to myself. Pretty much free reign over everything, which is always nice. But on the other hand, there have been a lot of things to do and it almost feels like nothing has changed. The only difference is that I am the only one who can do anything about the stress I have. With no one around, there is no one to fix things or even blame problems on. It all comes down to me. The ups and downs of independance, I guess.However, all in all, there are more pros than cons. I do miss my parents. I'm so used to having them around, that even though I don't always think so when they are here, it is nice to have them around. You know, coming home to dark house is a completely different feeling. Kind of l...
