"Bored now" - Evil Willow

Brace yourselves, this is sure to be a rambling, fairly pointless post because there are several things running through my head right now.

I'm about to go take a bath with lemon oil and give myself a facial. And I'm going to read a little and go to bed early.

I stuck to my promise and did not go to the office this weekend, though I was fairly tempted by some great ideas and spurts of inspiration to work.

I hate my grocery store. They never have what I want. The other store is too expensive. The other stores are too far away. (Maybe not... note to self: look into a more tightly regimented weekend schedule.)

I think I'm nursing a small addiction to water. I know, things could be worse. Heroin, for example. That's WAY worse than water. But I don't remember being so thirsty all the time when I was younger. Wouldn't it be cool if I turned into a jelly fish? Maybe not. I would sting people all the time, though. Anyway, I noticed this when I bought two cases of water at the grocery store along with a few other things -- but no meat -- and my bill was almost $100. Note to self: invest in some more cost effective means of hydration. Think Pur.

My schedule is too empty. I have too much time. It's making me nuts. Now, I just go to work and then all the rest of my time is my own. This makes me very restless. I don't like it! I don't like it one bit!

I'm thinking of taking some kind of martial arts class because that provides a focus and goals AND it will help me get into shape.

My arms and shoulders feel nicely sore today from hoisting children into the air all night last night. I can't wait until tomorrow.

I want to get into shape, but I wonder how badly because I ran once last week and I haven't done much else in terms of directed exercise.

So, I'm bored. Bored and listless without school. As I recall, that's one of the reasons I went back to school -- because I was bored.

I get so much more accomplished when I have a packed schedule. At the same time, my blood pressure sky-rockets and I get all frazzely about it. A conundrum.

So, maybe a martial arts class two nights a week and a language class two nights a week and then I could fill up the rest of my nights with my own projects. hmmm...

Note to self: price out classes, tutors, whatever. Must get busy.
