I’m not entirely sure

I’m scheduled for my third fill next week. I still don’t think I feel much restriction but it’s possible – possible – I’m feeling some. I went out shopping today. I practically had to tie myself to the back of my own car and drag myself out, but once out I enjoyed myself. I went [...]


a note…

Get it? Yeah, yeah…. I know. Anyway, you may or may not have noticed that the RSS link to Chickens and Eggs’ posts has disappeared off the sidebar. TDW noticed that it wasn’t updating and gosh darn, nothing I do makes it update. I’ve tried some different plugins and searched for settings and asked for [...]


sticking to goals

I’ve said several times that one of my favorite blogs is The Happiness Project. While I don’t agree with everything Gretchen has to say, she always provides me with food for thought. In this post last month, she writes about keeping your New Year’s Resolution. She has some really good tips and let’s face it, [...]


it’s greek to me

I’m also a little behind in writing about my happiness project. I’m kind of considering changing it’s name – perhaps my Living project. I am pretty lazy, though, so it may just stay as it is. The point is, it’s not just about happiness, it’s about living. And it’s about learning, I suppose. The last [...]


person in the mirror

This morning, for the first time, when I looked in the mirror I saw someone smaller. Not thin by any means, but definitely smaller. I have to admit, it took me aback. I looked a second and a third time. And I smiled. Maybe it was the clothes I was wearing today. Maybe it’s the [...]


hello again, hello

It’s not enough that I’m still very tired and a little whiny, my database server is running so slow as to make it nearly impossible to post. I’m feeling vexed now. Tomorrow is my second fill so perhaps I will begin to experience some of the restriction this band promises. It may still take several [...]


behind

I’m behind on everything. My goals are in a minor shambles this week. Not totally trashed, just not where I want them. I’m not feeling well. I’m ridiculously tired and my back and hip are annoyingly painful. Plus I feel a bit whiny. Nothing is overwhelmingly bad – it’s more that everything is just enough [...]


amusing

There’s a Verizon commercial running these days that amuses me. A big tractor trailer has jack-knifed and is dumping it’s load of heavy metal pipes, coming straight at you. “Worse Case Scenario!” the copy insists. “You’re stuck and can’t make your presentation…” Or something to that effect. Every time I see it I think “Worse [...]


doing what matters

I’ve been working through my personal axioms lately, combining a few, rewording a few. I’ve wanted to clarify to myself exactly what I meant and I’ve tagged posts where I spent some time discussing each axiom. The one I don’t seem to have talked much about although it’s been on my list since the beginning [...]


I hate to die

Yesterday, I accidentally killed off my player character in Runescape, an online game I play with my friend Pug. It was only a temporary death and mostly just caused me to lose some stuff – but it made me cry. I think crying over my imaginary character’s imaginary death was a pretty good indicator of [...]
