Ugh. I overslept an hour this morning. The alarm went off as directed, but some unknown troll turned the volume down to a whisper. I wasn't late to work, right on time, but I've grown accustomed to getting here early so I can have personal computer time before the agents arrive.
For some reason I had a hard time keeping my eyes open during the ( Read more... ) -

I've decided that it bugs me when people post the same blog/entry on livejournal as on myspace. That's why I strive to be different, to say different things in each hemisphere.
This weekend wasn't much of a weekend. It was very hot, very humid and it came to a head around 5:30 Saturday night when suddenly the calm air was blowing hard, people were ( Read more... ) -

I look through the pile, scanning for bills, for postcards, for cards from distant lands, and once a month I find a magazine. D thinks I have too many magazine subscriptions, but I love them.

She would ( Read more... ) -
Plants
Today is lovely. Clear skies, no breeze. It's a little cold, not quite 50ºF, but I'm happy with it. My tomato plant is thriving, though I think I need to re-pot it in a larger pot with more soil. My flowers, my dahlias and one plant with small yellow blossoms that I fell in love with and have now forgotten its name, are opening quickly to sun ( Read more... ) -

Dear LiveJournal,
There are a lot of times during the night or the evening hours when I feel the need to write to you. That feeling dissipates by the time the morning comes. Lately I've been finding myself staring at your blank screen, wishing for words to appear.
Yesterday afternoon I drove home through stop and go traffic. As I sat waiting at a ( Read more... ) -

Random Thoughts
It's the end of another week.
I am still consumed by wanderlust.
I've been dreaming about places for seven days now.
Maintaining my new attitude is a lot more work than I expected.
I wonder if I will eventually fall into the habit of not being concerned over those things I cannot change.
Will my quest to make myself a better person from the inside out ( Read more... )
