and freaked out a bit. I finally calmed down and found out that it will all be ok. I wasn’t freaking out about anything in particular. just freaking out. more of a nervous situation than anything. it was pretty weird. it is funny when you create scenerios in your head and they matter SOOO much - yet 15 minutes later you are like.. “ehh whatever.” basically I woke up, went home, saw that my serve…

so my accupunture last night was cool. it strangely seemed to effect my mood - which I was not quite ready for. I was totally a irrational, tired and emotional mess. haha. but I knew it while it was happening - so I just acted weird a couple times and was mostly quiet. I wonder if it was the actual accupunture that put me into a funk or if it was just the fact that I was tired and the pushing mys…

i am going to get a new …

i was so weird yesterday. I didn’t want to be at work. so I just did my work without mentioning a word to anyone - and I reacted poorly when I was spoken too. it was annoying even to me.. I guess I was coming down fro…
staying up for work is killing me. haha. even thought it was a couple days ago. I obviously need to take this weekend and sleep in. when I just typed sleep. I thought I maybe mispelled it. and when I lookd and it was spelled right I was so confused - cuz I swore I spelled it with a lot of Ls and no Es. whatever. I hate keyboards. they are mean to me. check out
i really enjoy words. they seem to really add good things to our world. I want to be smart. someday. someday. I get really worried that my lack of writing structure will stifle my ability to exist in “blog” reality. I guess I iwll have to defeat my inelequoence by linking to cool stuff. haso here is a really nice movie

(unless I continue to be awesome)So the setup was that I wanted to play a joke o…
