I feel like a speed bump

Sometimes I hold people back and sometimes I just get ran over. Anyway its a day to day battle with this boring sorry town. I think a certain group put it best... "If I told you this was killing me, would you stop?"

Enough is enough...

Sometimes I wonder. I am in another one of my moods, blame it on the love stories marathon. I find myself fiening more than what I have again. There's a huge rumbling of energy inside me right now, but I never know what to do with it as usual. It feels like there's a ball of light and energy and sound just rolling around in the bottom part of my chest, it needs to be put to good use, but on what? I spend way too much time day dreaming of love with a certain someone, and extremely too much time on the love I had. I am somewhat independent, I should be able to move over these things. The new year is approaching, somehting needs to be done, but I'm not sure what. I think staying away from romantic French films may be one of the resolutions. Nah, that's my vice. Well anyways, a new year, doesn're really mean much to me right now except to buy a new calendar and start another diet/exercise regiment that I won't stick to. Another year sitting at the same computer at work, watching the clock to hit 5. Dreaming of how my life could be going. I wish someone would just step up and take me over. There's one person who I can't get enough of, and for some odd reason I keep flocking back to him even though he has no intentions or ability to take me over. I seem to be the one that takes him over, not be force, but more by his hand. Am I being a baby? Yes. As usual. Anyways, here's to a new year, an old flame, and an even older dream.

Revalation....

Well, once again I find my self pondering the idea of religion. I started watching a movie last night called "Left Behind" (courtesy of Terri, thank you) it is about the book of Revalations, which has me wondering again just how good of a christian am I? I had a dream last night, it was a warm yellowish orange light with a cupped hand, and I remember getting this feeling in my chest like a panic/excited feeling but it was ok. I went to touch the hand and I pulled back and asked myself "what if it's not real?", then I heard someone say "don't fight it, you have to believe" So that's exactly what I did and I ended up touching this hand and got this really excited feeling again like it was taking over me.It was refreshing. It could have been that I was just so tired and waking up myself by not breathing because I was so relaxed and semi-unconscience. So, I think it is trying to tell me to figure out what exactly I am, and what I am here to do. Saturday night is a church service at my church, I am there.

Where's my key?

So much pent up energy and no idea on how to use it. I feel like cleaning the whole house, painting a few paintings reading a few book watching some movies, etc., etc., etc. Work was long and boring as usual. I'm cranky today anyways, I just want to sleep all day tomorrow but I cant it's our offices anual Chrsitmas party/gift exchange. Of course I bought a great gift for my Secret Santa gift, when have I ever been one to give a shitty gift? What's even more impressive is what I picked out for Eric this year. I can't say what it is now but you will know after Christmas. Tomorrow night is coffee night as usual every Wednesday night at Cafe Classics for open mic night, hopefully a little game of Tetris since now I am hooked. Talked to my best friend Todd today, can I give a shout out to PA! WOO WOO! He said they have got at least 6 inches of snow just from last night, does this mean a skiing trip for Mandy? Possibly. And on the bad note, the planned surprised Bachelorette for Friday night for Poonam is off due to her train not getting in until Saturday, that still didn't stop me from buying her the ultimate nighty and thong set courtesy of Victorias Secret. I can't wait till she gets in town again, she's such a sweetheart. Can't wait to go to Chicago on Christmas day to see Poonam get married. It will be fun of course, with Carmen, Angie and I driving there. We pondered the idea of staying at the Hilton, but there werent very good remarks on the hotel website for feedback. I think we're going to be going with the Westin near O'Hare with the "dream beds" in the luxury room. We'll see. Well, I am going to hit the hay now, maybe catch a romantic movie before sleeping, although I just purchased this lavender eye mask which is heaven, I slept like a baby last night. Ta ta for now fans, come visit me at the Cafe.

Did I miss something?

Well, well, well, It's been awhile friend. Had to catch up on some blog reading and emails and eBay purchases. Once again I have succeeded to ignore my baby blog. This tells me I am not a person who can be depended on very easily. Anyway, I have a good excuse don't get me wrong, how can I possibly take time out of my busy schedule of working, hanging out with Eric, and repeatedly watching "Breakfast at Tiffany's" to write in my blog. Darling I've been having the most devine time playing "Tetris" and beating Eric in bowling. Shopping is a must as well today, hopefully since it is 2:09 pm and I am still in my pajamas. Imagining a more glamorous life has been occupying my time, I just can't seem to ever have enough money to support my ideas.
