1. I want a puzzle to work.
2. I love the song It Is You (I Have Loved) from the Shrek soundtrack.
3. Mango salsa sounds yummy, but I don't have corn chips to eat it with.
4. I finished my first project for my FDS.
5. I found myself thinking of playing harp today. Weird.
6. My house is a mess.
7. I love Stu and I fully realize just how much I do when he is upset or sick.
8. I've wanted to write poetry for days but haven't found the right topic yet.
9. I don't like to do things if I'm not sure how to do them. I like improvising but only if I'm 90% sure it will work. Website stuff does not fall in this category. I don't know what I'm doing and therefore I'm putting it off.
10. I don't feel good.
11. I got to work on my dollhouse last night. It was very soothing.
12. I found all the piano music for free for Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog. I haven't been able to print it out yet but when I do...I'll be practicing for a few hours.
13. I want to write a story, or continue with The Gentleman & the Lady. I need time to think.
14. I've wanted to watch X-Files for months.
15. I'm trying a new recipe tomorrow - Li'l Smokes and cheese wrapped up in croissants. My version of "Pigs in a Blanket".
16. I've felt removed from all my friends for a few months now. Nothing happened...I just...feel a little out of touch with everyone. I don't spend quality time with anyone anymore, I guess. Life = school + work. Everything just feels...surface-y.
17. I want to visit the library and check out children's books.
18. "Laundry Day" is one of my new favorite songs.
19. Chuck is a really great show.
20. I love pimento and cheese sandwiches.
Marriage also affects socialness...a lot of time is spent in that sanctifying union, working through, praying, rest with each other...it takes work and time.
ReplyDeleteI say all this because I too have felt removed from my friends, and a lot of it is because I'm working through so much personal stuff with my husband...not personal issues between me and my husband, but working through our own quirks and struggles together, and it takes time...
And yes, school+work+life.../sigh.
I concur, Gina. :) A lot of this though has been built up over time. It's a thing I do that I'm ashamed off - if someone makes me incredibly angry, just once...I just...let go. I distance. It hasn't happened with many people here, but it's definitely happened more than I'd like. The other part that has been going on is that we haven't lived in our house for over a month and I haven't been able to invite people over - I feel like that is the one spiritual gift that I have, because I LOVE having people over and sharing food and time, and when I don't get to do that, it makes me incredibly, weirdly sad. :/ The other part is that school and work are stressing me out so much I'm getting minorly depressed which makes me cynical and not wanting to work on developing friendships, much to my chagrin when I'm not depressed. I love being with people. I wish I could spend more time with everyone. school + work = Kaitlin's least favorite things. :) Hopefully we'll be able to hang out some once the summer arrives. I love the idea of packing a picnic and children's books and some kites and visiting a lake. What say you? :)
