What's On My Mind... An Experiment of Sorts

Thinking about lately...

Mardi Gras, and how to celebrate it here in NC... so far, I'm putting together a small get together at my place...but, it's still no second line...

Reality shows...I haven't had a television since 1999. I have one in this house I began renting on December 1st. What do I think about having TV for almost 2 months now? Well, I just can't get into reality shows, they just don't seem like reality to me... What I'd like to see more of... well made history, travel, and nature documentaries.. I don't know, that's just me...

Office jobs... I have one now, and I had one in 2000. In between, I waitressed, bartended, cleaned boats, sewed boat canvas, painted houses, and became a practicing licensed massage therapist... all those jobs get old, but as crazy as it sounds, they had personality... a soul, and they were creative... an office job, especially when you are but a cog in the wheel of a large company does not feel very good to me...

Honesty... I was someone who would hide my true feelings, just to keep everything moving along smoothly day by day. However, I just figured out that holding back is not helping anything to move along, but instead causes everything to just stagnate and decay... being open and honest about the way you feel after holding it in after some time is like lancing an infected wound... it allows healing to begin and flow is restored... yes, I know that was disgusting... sorry...

Love... requires mindfulness and purposeful direction of thought, word, and deed... sometimes it takes more effort than you expected... not just relationship love, but a loving attitude applied to all areas of your life... but, in the end, it feels really good and you know it was worth it...

Dogs... why does mine run away and then come back home covered in stinky mystery poo....

Bahamas... the water feels so good this time of year...

Alcohol and Caffine... I noticed that sometimes I say things I regret later not only when I have too much to drink, but also when I am jacked up on too much coffee... which is not the case now...

I'm actually getting ready to go to bed and just had no idea what to write so I'm just letting whatever comes to mind flow...hmmmm... we'll see if I do this again...
