I am a mis-timed jump...
Has it really been that long since I last posted? Wow. Time sure does fly. Anyway, before I forget....Happy b-day to Gen, you're almost 30!!! he he he.
Well, happy belated 4th all! This pic comes from last year, when I watched the fireworks show w/ the bubs, Jalen, Mikayla and the parentals that come w/ said kids. It was a lot of fun. First family 4th of July thing I did in a really long time. Man, life was so much more simple back then, being a little kid, watching shit explode. Ahhh memories.
Btw - July is National Hot Dog Month...I didn't even realize that. Thank goodness I just bought 3 packs of hot dogs and buns. I even had a dog at 7-11 after I went running last week. Now I just have to get that hot dog toaster from Skymall....I sure love hot dogs :)
Anyway, it was nice to get a few days off of work. Thursday and Friday last week. Went out the first couple of days, but pretty much chilled on the weekend. So I got a full serving of fun and relaxation. But work's in full busy-mode. And these back-to-back-to-back mtgs aren't helping. I had to skip out on a couple to actually do some other tasks that are on my plate right now. I can't wait for the slowdown, and even though it sucks when time moves slow, I could sure use it to relax my mind.
It's been a thinking week this week. You know, sometimes, there are days when I just know what I'm doing. Things are in total rhythm, I feel like Spider-man(not spidermen, he he he), swinging around on my webs, jumping from building to building, with my spidey-sense in full awareness mode; almost bordering on the edges of clairvoyancy - or maybe like in the Matrix, when Neo is just in command of everything...he figures it out. And then there are days when I just have absolutely no idea what I'm doing. It's a scene out of that new Eddie Murphy movie where there's small people actually controlling the human size Eddy Murphy, they're trying to figure out how to move about, and how to work everything. I feel like I have no grasp on anything, and I'm an alien on another planet. I can't see clearly, in fact, I can't even see what I'm doing as I'm doing it. - Life gets weird like thatz...and all you can do is take the good w/ the bad. Life isn't supposed to be easy, it isn't supposed to be lived out alone. And that's when you rely on those people around you to help you when you can't see for yourself. You lean on other when you're weak and can't walk on your own. And have faith that they will carry you through. But it's important to know that you have to also ask for help when you need it. And it goes that way w/ helping others...you cannot help them, unless they truly want to be helped.
Shojo recently posted an entry about music and the hard-to-describe effect that music has on us. It really is a trip...how it can just tap into your emotions. It's a level of expression that's beyond language, beyond anything. I mean, you can even listen to music from other cultures and feel what the music is about...it's a universal language; so to speak. I don't know why I'm really thinking about music at this moment...well, actually, I'm listening to it, and I'm just thinking how music affects me.
55 small things you can always do
15. Put the cap on the toothpaste.
In the line of small things you can always do, this is definitely one of the smaller, he he he. But yeah, I guess put the cap back on the tube. It would suck to lose it...that actually can be a little annoying. This may not apply to those of you who have those flip-top caps(present company included), but I guess in the same sense, you can just close the cap? This one is really weird. Well, there's numero quinze...do with it what you will.
Okay, enough thinking...my brain hurts...there isn't much brain left to begin with...
