Grainy Eyelids

Where is this extreme exhaustion suddenly coming from? I barely kept my head from hitting the desk all day today. Was it 2 workouts yesterday? I don't think I'm in that bad shape. Ugh, regardless, it is extremely frustrating to go through the entire day so tired all I want to do is sleep, but knowing that I can't realistically go to bed til about 10pm - I want to avoid waking up in the middle of the night as best as possible. Also, didn't go to volunteering today. They tell us to stay away when we don't feel well, so if I'm coming down with something then hooray for being safe! And if not, hooray for more sleep!

Excuse me, it's now time for me to 1. eat cereal for dinner because I'm too tired to cook; 2. take a bubble bath; 3. watch RHNYC; 4. fall asleep. Maybe I'll throw in a glass of wine somewhere there for good measure.

The Netflist

I just spent a little time at work updating my Netflix list (ie, the Netflist). I think I've got some good classics in there, as well as some better new movies, but what am I missing?


Hmm. That picture is smaller than I hoped it'd be.

Also, what are your book suggestions? The past three I've read are: Trail of Crumbs, The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao, and Water for Elephants. I loved all three, for all different reasons. I also plan on doing a review of the three in the coming days, so stay tuned for that.

Also....

My Twitter feed had to be taken down from the blog. I had to lock my actual account because of wanting to keep some people out, and that resulted in the irritating Twitter pop-up on this site. So bye bye Twitter.

Yikes

I've really neglected the blog lately.

Honestly I haven't had much motivation to write. The past several weeks have been stressful and slow-going, and I often found myself overwhelmed with everything that's been happening.

Regardless, I need to get back on the blog wagon if I want anyone to keep reading this thing...although I'm almost at le blog's one year anniversary! How things have changed.

So what can I write about to keep you all entertained for a bit? It might have to be bullet points again, because we all know how much I love them.

  • I am 10 days away from completing 2 (TWO!) of my new year's resolutions. Yes, the ones that I didn't post to the blog. Here's a hint: it involves running and money. Let's leave it at that.
  • I'm going to Philly in May! I'll be there for my lovely captain-from-freshman-year Carissa's wedding and I am thrilllllled. Sadly my mom won't be there when I'm in town, but I get to be back in PHILLY. East Coast, I miss you. Give me your humid (weather), your seasons (changing), your Wawa yearning to be eaten. If I could return to you today that wouldn't be soon enough. Patience. Patience.
  • Caitlin is coming for my 23rd birthday. In a word: squeeeeeeeeee. I don't think we've been this good about visiting since......ever? Since I moved from Nashville?
  • BLAIRE is making the trek out from B-more and is visiting over 4th of July!! My button will see everything this city on a hill has to offer, and I forsee many nights of LOTR marathons.
  • Wildwood! July 25th/26th. I'm going. Are you?
Hmm, that seems to be the laundry list of life events lately. Tonight is my second night of volunteering at UCSF. Last week that consisted of playing foosball and Rock Band, and it seems to be a fair indication of how things will run the next several months.

Okay, dear readers, I'm signing off. I promise we'll make this updating thing run a lot smoother. Really, I do.

Bullet Points

Because I'm still working my way up to real posts again.

- Mini-triathlon. Happening...well, I need to register. But I'm buying my training suit this weekend, so that's saying something, right?
- Went to Vegas last week for work and saw Steve Forbes give a talk. Take heart, he says, the banking crisis will be over in the fall. Conservative agenda notwithstanding, he's a surprisingly entertaining guy.
- Did a little PR for my mom and landed her an interview with an autism blogger!
- Debating the merits of joining a fun coed team out here. I'm looking for yall's advice on this one - to play, or not to play?
- Volunteering in the Teen Lounge at UCSF Children's Hospital starting in 10 days. Nervous, but mainly excited.

These are the little things taking up my days lately. The past couple weeks have had some heavier happenings, but I don't really have the energy or desire to write about them right now. It's bullet points for now, but we'll be back into real writing soon.
