a big thanks to Natalie for posting this cool site... it was exactly what i needed to keep from spending the whole day afternoon asleep at my desk.  Mind you  I still nodded off a few times.  this past week,i have had a hard time staying asleep, and last night I went to bed way way late ( thats in no way a complaint though!! ) but i am so looking forward to sleeping lots this weekend, catching up on my writing and finishing up some around the house projects.  okay, that last sentence was incredibly hard to write and yet still sound d.u.m.b.   back to zoned out world for me.  happy 4th everyone!

I never realized how deeply in love i am with my mattress until i spent the last week sleeping in a hospital chair. 

Will play blog catch up soon.

* the internet at my office wont stay connected for more than 5 seconds at a time!  making it hard to enter data into my grants database and important things like.... well, this.

* Wednesday night while i was brushing my teeth, i felt dizzy, and the next thing i knew i woke up on the bathroom floor with a huge goose egg and a major headache.  no clue what happened or why.  first time I have ever fainted.

* this morning spider ants have taken over my car, literally.  my only hope is that there are enough of them to care the POS far far away.

* there is no more coffee.

* i think that says it all.

 I figured i would continue with my NYC theme and post a few of my favorite photos from my trip.  :)

Dear Travelocity, ( copy & paste to hotwire, priceline etc....)

I greatly appreciate your concern that I may miss out on a great travel deal to NYC....really I do.  And while, I think its fabulous that you have marked prices down by 48% unless you are gonna sell me a ticket for oh about a buck fifty, then you can forget it. (I'd like to forget it myself, but I cant. By now you know I am constantly plotting my escape from Mississippi.)  Enough already.  Its kinda like you are rubbing it in.... and that?  Well, that hurts.  I also anticipate that when I do want to go back to NYC to see J perform prices are going to be astoundingly increased by about 480%.  That hurts a bit too, but its okay, I am prepared.  

Dear Crazy Girl in Queens,

I would like to clear up a few things, if you don't mind.  Which I don't think you will seeing as you apparently have a LOT of spare time. 

Clearly: If I didn't email you back the first 5 times, I am not likely to now either.

Clearly: You have me confused with someone else or you are way misinformed.

Clearly: You need mental health treatment

Clearly: Geography isn't your strong suit.

I am a bit unclear as to what your problem with me actually is though.  Curious as I may be, its not enough to actually engage in messaging drama with you. Clearly.  

Dear Bill Collector,

I am not talking to you at work.  Ever.  Regardless of how many times you call and how many different people you pretend to be.  Chances are I am not going to waste my cell phone time talking to you either.  Looks like I dont really plan on talking to you at all.  Ever.  I am buying a ticket to NYC instead.

Dear "Grown up Child" in NYC.

Answer a text once in a while.  I know you have it.  I know you are at an advanced skill level... I have seen you in text action. I like knowing you are alive and well.  There are crazy people in NYC.  I know this.... one of them seems intent on driving this point home.  ( see above.)

PS... Proud of you! 

 HERE  on my other site.....I havent posted any in ages but I needed a creative outlet.  :-)

one month from today I will be 32. 

32. despite the fact that this morning i wrote 34 down as my age

?

its 32. ( i think)

or rather it will be.

which I am kinda excited about because year 31 was sorta blah.

although i must say it was better than 30.

no big accomplishment there

because lets face it 30 sucked a big one.

I need coffee.

But not for my birthday.

For my birthday I just want flowers.

Pink ones...........

Show us your gorgeous eyes.
