Stop. Brew. Fill. Sink. Breathe.

That is exactly how my immediate future is looking. It’s been a hectic day and I am tired and I can’t stop working even though I stopped working three hours ago so I need to consciously STOP. Go into the kitchen. Brew up a strong, rich cup of Sumatran coffee.  Fill the tub. Toss in a

So my stress level lately is off the fucking charts. It’s hard to explain why, hard to pinpoint any one thing as it all seems to build up. Most days, I can’t even tell if the thing I’m feeling stressed about is actually what I am stressed about. You know what I mean?  Like you

Put down the iPhone, turn off twitter, close your feed reader…

Shut it all down, shut it all off and go be good to yourself for an hour. You do not have to do that one more thing, take care of this one last item. Just… pause. You’ll thank yourself for it, I promise.

A Spree! With a Dash of Inanity.

I don’t know what crawled up my ass today but I went to the store to buy new bras and ended up going on a freakin’ shopping spree.  I came home with two pair of jeans, a pair of shorts, five tanks, three tees, five bras, eleven pair of panties and two pair of shoes.

A Little of This, A lot of Busy

July 20, 2009 By In Babble, Life 5 Comments

Ugh.  I haven’t written a "real" post in almost two weeks. Life has become exceedingly busy. Weekends are spent out and about, riding and enjoying the summer.  And the weekdays?  Work, work and more work. It’s been a long time since I put in anything resembling full time hours.  And even though I’m working from

Sleep? What sleep?

  Yeah, I got some.  In fact, I slept until nearly one in the afternoon today.  But why, you may ask, when I went to bed at like….  oh…  NINE last night?   In a word — Taylor. See, I’m out of ambien.  This is a huge bummer because I’m a chronic insomniac (and have

  This has been me all day long. Obviously, I changed my theme. Seems most of ya don’t mind when sites change their look so I figured, what the fuck, go for it. Only… I don’t even think I like  it. And it was stressful. And I’ve been snapping out at the Teen and the

September 2, 2008 By In Life No Comment

So school has started for the teen and I’m quite determined to get myself into some sort of routine.  There has been next to no scheduled sleep or eat or cleaning times since Taylor started working nights and it’s making me both crazy and vaguely depressed all the time.  I’m a creature of habit and
