Trivia
Posted on | March 16, 2010 | 3 Comments
Please enlighten me:
Why, my dear friends, is it that I develop a raging sore throat the entire five day stretch of night shift? And why haven't I called in sick?
Is there a reason my labs ferociously shake and whine when it's time for breakfast, while my mutt won't leave the bed?
Come to think of it, why do I have three dogs?
Why do I want to sleep all the flippin' time?
What is it about a banana that just isn't complete without peanut butter?
Next explain to me why a woman expects me to believe that her water broke, when she's really pissing her pants?
Purposely, may I add.
What am I doing writing here when I told myself I'd bike six miles to the river? Are the exercise gods going to curse me!?
A cup of joe, music, and my cat = my recent comforts. Anyone care to explain?
Why do I feel that that I am missing something big,
and please explain
this disconnection.

What I write about

no explanation sweetie. It's just who you are. (well... not the girl pissing her pants, pretending her water broke)
I think we will always be those 2 girls who are dreaming for more, something big. I think it's a good thing. it keeps us thinking :)
and p.s. - I had a 101 fever, awful cough and a major cold, and I didn't call in sick either. I guess we just care about our jobs and don't want to be those people who call in sick.

I agree - this post is just like your post the other day, the yearning for something more. Are we just hopeless yearners?
And hells yea, we are hard workers dammit!

for some reason, when i'm really sick, i don't want to call in. but when i feel fine it's like, 'maybe i'll take a sick day today.' haha. i guess if i want a free day i don't want to spend it feeling crummy :)
(who says crummy anymore??)
and i am so glad you're writing here! even if it means you didn't bike to the river... does that make me an enabler of non-exercise? hahaha.
as for the missing something...i don't know, friend. i know that feeling and it's so confusing. for me it comes and goes. and i like much better when it goes :)
