Life...sometimes

I am a bear's hibernating psyche...

I am in the rut of ruts lately. Maybe it's because I was on vacation for two weeks, maybe it's because of the cold and rainy weather, or that I'm trying to fight off being sick(allergies are acting up for some reason), or the fact that the office is so much quieter, or the general aura about the economy...or a combination of all the above. Whatever it is, I am just stuck lately. Not wanting to get out of bed, just zoning out, and being completely unmotivated to do anything...that pretty much sums up my attitude about things lately. I go through these random phases every year, where I'm just blah about everything. I would've that that the Christmas spirit would've picked me up by now, but it hasn't yet. It's only a little over a week away. Maybe I'm gonna have one of those Ebinezer Scrooge dreams or something tonight...some one please bonk me on the head and wake me up from this daze and confuzed state I'm in...but not literally, please, he he he.

It sure is nice to be back tho; and yes, I do feel a little bit disjointed, because I got pretty comfortable being away and just hanging out in the PI. It's tough to get back and work work work. I do have some other things I can be doing, but again, I am currently lacking the motivation to do so. At least I have enough energy to write...Lord knows I haven't done much else lately... Scratch that...I did sign up for the HB half; so there's a bright spot on my laundry list of haven't-gotten-around-to-yet...but I really really REALLY need to get to training; there's only about 7 weeks before the actual event. You know what, maybe that's it...I haven't really exercised in a while...maybe that's the cause of this whole rut thang. I'll try to squeeze in a run tomorrow morning, weather-permitting, and see what happens then.

55 small things you can always do
41. Be a good winner; be a good loser.
I bet you missed these...well, that's if anyone's been keeping up lately. I missed them, so that's all that counts. =p I think I'm pretty good with the former, but on the latter, I could definitely use some work. It's not that I'm a sore loser, I just can't shake them - the losses, that is - very easily. Ask my friends about losing one of our league game this season when a foul(albeit a phantom one) was given on a 3 pointer that gave the other team a chance to tie the game and eventually win...or after the Lakers lost last year to the Cel....I can't even say it - sheesh. It takes me a little longer than usual to let go of losses, be they my own or one of the teams I identify with (reading between the lines - Detroit Lions - ) But it is important to realize that a loss is just a loss, whether or not it's a regular season game, or championship game. When 20-30 years has come to pass, that loss will probably not affect our lives significantly(unless you're one of the players on teh Buffalo Bills from the early 90's, but even then...30 years down the line, it'll be a mini-headline). Although it is one of the lines a woman should just NOT say to a man, it is afterall..."Just a game."
