Well, more like, she exists currently at 67.6% of her normal capacity!! Yes, friends, it has been a doozie. I was dealt a bit of the strep and left the house this beautiful morn for the first time in 4 days. First thing I did on this glorious day? Hopped on the 3 and headed to the office. Not the celebration I had hoped, but I have never been so happy to be at work. Around other humans. And no longer shuffling around my empty apartment in old pjs, slippers and a robe. With crazy hair and dishevled memories of what I used to look like. I could go on like this, but you get my drift.
One thing that impending death or wishing for said death does is provide some perspective. While isolated in my ivory tower (actual building is ivory with columns), I came to some pretty importante conclusions about some stuff.
1. I have got to stop burning the candle at both ends. No more goin' out like I have a month left on this earth. If God wants me to get laid, then it will be brought forth. I'm done chasin' strange for the time being.
2. I need a rug.
3. I have got to focus on the ol' jobby job and get better with my time management. I have felt inadequate in my roll and I know it's because I haven't been entirely focused. (see item #1)
4. I need to get a hobby or join a group of some kind in an effort to meet people of like mind. I am starting this by conducting research on things I'm interested in. Namely, outdoor adventure type groups.
5. I have got to get my computer fixed. It is beyond annoying to have it freeze and lose all my junk repeatedly over the course of an hour. This is especially important because I start teaching a new semester on Sunday and need my shit to operate. Also, refer to #'s 1 and 3- it's all tied in.
I missed you all! Hope your days are fantastic!
