My fuse isn't as long as it usually is. I have a lot of elements in my life that you think would have sharpened and elongated my patience, but these past couple of days have been pretty tough. Do I want to yell at certain people? Yes. Would it solve anything? No, except maybe I'd feel better for a few minutes. Do I want to tell people what I really ( Read more... )

I'm entering day seven of my ten-day run of work. I feel like a pansy compared to my mom that works ten-day runs, but instead of eight-hour day shifts, she has twelve-hour night shifts. And she's freakin' 55. I'm only 23, I should be full of energy and whatnot. Guess it's time to change some habits, namely getting some workouts in. Apparently, our ( Read more... )

That's about how many hours I've worked within two days. Needless to say my feet hurt, my body is throw off by my crazy eating habits, and I've missed a few TV shows I wanted to catch, but oddly enough, I'm still kickin' and enjoying what I do. Oddly enough ( Read more... )

But then again, sick ( Read more... )

I wonder if The Byrds (the 70s band that wrote "Turn! Turn! Turn!") were Christians or just liked reading about that crazy dude, Jesus. Either way, it certainly sounds like they read Ecclesiates. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, Google the words "the byrds" and "to everything turn turn turn" and read the lyrics. Then grab a Bible and ( Read more... )

I glanced at my last post and it was kind of full of despair and doubt, huh ( Read more... )

My body is slightly rejecting this change I've taken on. It feels like everything within me wants to move back to Lubbock, back to my friends, back to classes, back to the routine I've held on for five years. It wasn't so bad waking up, sitting in class, spending time with people I cared about, and sleeping soundly knowing that if I got to live ( Read more... )
