Quick Thoughts

As I’m trying to journal every day this week, I’m going to try to tap out a quick entry before my next meeting. I’m annoyed by everything today and I need to figure out how to get over it. I ha...

RADless

You guys, I can’t for the LIFE of me, get a guy to get excited about going out with me! I wrote yesterday about getting stuff done in the morning because I was going to be meeting a guy on a dog-...


As part of my Whole Life Challenge (I’m on week 7 of the 8 week challenge), we get a weekly lifestyle challenge. One week we were supposed to meditate, one week we would write three goals for our...


Going to need to write much, much more about this, but I had meeting #2 with the potential new company and the guy who is my friend - who I’d be working with directly in an office here in town....

Writing it Off/Out

No word from The Tree in a couple of days now. So weird. He’s in and then out. This is too much trouble. This relationship is clearly not bearing fruit. Appears the juice is not worth the ...

Not Sure.

Not sure, not sure. Usually I can tell when a guy is really into me. By The Tree’s persistence to see me, he seems into me - yet there’s something nagging going on in the background. He seems ...

Leafing Through...

Yesterday, as I was leaving the office, I sent a text to The Tree just to let him know I was thinking about him. Since he’s been back in my life (ha, the last few days), he’s actually put in a l...

Planting the Seed, Again.

You guys are going to razz me, but guess what I did last night? I went out with The Tree. Yes, the guy who can’t seem to stick with a plan actually made a plan with me on Sunday (to go to dinner...

100% Free and Clear

…and now it’s Monday and somehow I feel a little bit better than yesterday, even though: My apartment situation kind of sucks now. The dufases at the apartment building that’s situated on the...

Pre-Valentine Blues. *UPDATE

I had a bit of a setback this past week with regards to moving forward with my life and the fact that I’m not partnered up. For some reason (maybe it was because I mentioned him in my last entry...

Eight is Great

I’ve lost 6 lbs so far on the Whole Life Challenge plan. I mostly think it’s because I weighed myself the morning after my pre-challenge binge (I’m guessing added 3 lbs of just pure “bad stuff...

Friday Five

The stress levels at work are off the charts. I have no fewer than FOUR highly diva-like personalities I’m dealing with on a daily basis, and all of their crises have to get resolved in the ne...

Let Love Rule

I had no idea what to expect regarding Monday night’s inter-faith vigil in support of immigration and that was planned at a monument that just happens to be on the block where I live. But I thou...

Terrifying Thought

This morning on my drive into work I realized that I haven’t felt so terrified for our country and our safety and well-being since 9/11. It’s a familiar feeling of being trapped on an island jus...

LLD

Lovely Leah’s daughter (let’s call her LLD just to keep it simple): Tuesday night I went up to Lovely’s house. They were all away at a candle light vigil that LLD’s friends had put together. I...

Missed Voice Mails

I somehow missed a phone call on Friday. It was from my dad. He was calling to tell me that one of his good friends passed away. This guy was also one of my favorite friends of my parents’. O...

Alternative Facts

You guys, I’m really and truly concerned for our country if the biggest thing the President is concerned about is who’s crowd was bigger. It’s like a contest of penis sizes and the country is no...

Weird Weekend 10

Today I started a lifestyle plan called the Whole Life Challenge . It’s a pretty comprehensive plan to create some positive changes in my life using a system of checks for various things. Th...


Well, how did I forget? If I remember correctly, the problem with the Tree was that he couldn’t/wouldn’t take root, make a commitment…or even a simple plan. And when he was able to actually mak...

Bring Back the Tree Jokes!

Well, guess what? I waited to say anything, but guess who came back after a 3-month disappearance? That’s right, it’s The Return of The Tree, all 6‘9” of him. I don’t know what happened (my gu...

Friday the 13th, Bulleted

This workweek has been exhausting. I have been coming home from work, making a small dinner, then workout and/or dog walk, then bed. Last night I went to bed at 8PM even though I could have e...

Milky/Creamy Dream

I went to bed really early last night with a longing in my heart for someone to share my bed…really missing that human touch, so of course I woke in the middle of the night with my mind reeling a...
