Fragments

*
I wish I could wear earrings, but my immune system will not allow it. Crapity. I have these cool Celtic knots that I really dig, but they are silver, and apparently, I have some werewolf blood. They are a bane to my earlobes.

*
Okay, so I saw the X-Files movie last night and didn't think it was as bad as everyone says. It was kind of like watching a really long episode. Besides, I love going to the movies. I wish I could spend the rest of my life sitting in the dark, watching movies and eating popcorn. This would make me happy, if only the seats were a tad more comfy.

*
I am so tired of doctor visits and blood work. I love phlebotomists who find my tiny, weak vein on the first try. I do not enjoy the bend of my elbow being used as a pincushion.

*
I forgot Cathy's birthday yesterday, and must call today and beg forgiveness because I am such a lax little sister.

*
I am dangerously close to running over to the new JC Penny and begging for a job. I can stock merchandise. I can direct lost customers to the appropriate department. I have a college degree, you know.

*
What exactly does a restaurant hostess do? Just say Welcome to Restaurant X, let me show you to your table. Dude, I could handle that.

*
I would like to write a novel, but fear my attention span is too short for such a long project. Whenever I sit down to write prose, I end up saying screw this, and write a poem instead.

*
Cyborgs fascinate me.

*
I need to grocery shop. I would like to buy some cheese. I would like to make a grilled cheese sandwich with garlic butter and have it with a real (non-diet) Coke. This is a recurring fantasy.

*
This whole bout of anxiety/depression/insomnia is getting exhausting. Seriously.

anxiety/depression/insomnia - I know all about it! It all just feeds off of each other, ya know? However, I've finally come to embrace my insomnia- I get tons of po' stuff done during those long hours.

grilled cheese - mmm mmm mmmm. gotta have the tomato soup, though.

Hi Rachel :)

I do manage to write all kinds of weirdness at 2 a.m., which is--perhaps--the hidden benefit of insomnia...

I agree about the tomato soup...And while back in my gardening days I would have made it myself from the annual crop of Roma tomatoes, these days, I just warm up some Progresso Tomato & Basil, which is pretty damn good, for canned soup! And quite tasty with aforementioned grilled cheese. This is making me hungry...
