Hey folks, time for a real update versus a random rant about something which is probably interesting to me -- and not to anyone else.
So what has been going on with me lately.
Work, and a lot of it has been going on lately. I guess that is just what I'm doing these days. I work five days a week and skirt the edges of forty hours a week. I'm making a pretty good paycheck, and speaking of paychecks I need to deposit my most recent one tomorrow. I'm supposed to meet with my boss sometime soon about a raise and such not, but I do not know if that will actually happen before I find another job and turn in my resignation.
Aside from working there has been not too much going on. I've had quite a bit of time to just be around, and do very little. I haven't gotten a lot done recently. I finished The Tenth Circle which was not my favorite of the Jodi Picoult novels. It was quite raw and rather disturbing in some ways. I don't particularly like books about some of the topics she writes about -- and this was very little exception to the rule. I was, however, told to read this book because it was good. I yield to the fact that it was another very well written novel -- but I just did not prefer the subject matter. Tons of things can tear families apart, and bring them back together. This particular novel was a little too -- and by a little I really mean a lot -- predictable.
As par the rest of life. I've a few good friends I'm still keeping in touch with. Angela is doing well and looking awesome lately -- on her new diet. This one is actually working. I've kept in touch with Katy to a large extent --when she actually answers her phone :-). I don't think that I would have imagined that I'd be in this particular situation, again, at this point in my life. I always assumed that eventually I'd figure things out and they'd just meld into the fabric of my lifetime. I almost figured that the memories would fade overtime and that is just how it would end up working out. But, in the long run it isn't the same situation and it isn't going to be. I've gotten back into whatever this awesome thing is with a guy who has been in and out of my life for years now...it is amazing to think that it has been five years. It feels like nothing close to that amount of time. I marvel every day at how much we've both changed, and yet, we're completely on the same page -- which is pretty fantastic.
I have been having issues with thinking up rhyming/coordinating stanzas for things...and then forgetting them. SO I wrote this one down:
When darkness yields to the light of morning dawning
The sadness fades to a field of yearning
Beauty stretches it's fingers through the world
And stories dance, futures untold
