TWITLOL v1 i7

What I have determined this week.

1. I have a tendency to be passive aggressive in my responses to many things/people in life.
2. Hollywood has ruined me for any type of real functional lifelong relationships.
3. Ice cream can solve many of life’s problems.
4. There is nothing quite like a night out with friends.
5. How tea is not quite the same as hot milk.
6. One night really can alter your sleep patterns beyond recognition.
7. I need to go back to school – although I am not sure where or for what…

All right, let me explain a few of these in no particular order.

Last Saturday I went up to GF to see some friends. We ended up at a house party until the wee hours (at least for me – 3 am) then proceeded to start watching a movie. Around 4 I excused myself as I had been falling asleep on the couch for the past half hour. Then got up Sunday morning and drove back to Fargo. It was a good time and I got to see some friends I hadn’t seen in quite some time. Unfortunately I have not really slept well the remainder of the week as my sleep patterns are not a bit off shall we say…

When you are wanting to go to sleep but your body just won’t agree, hot tea is not the answer. Just because it is warm and soothing does not make it a substitute for warm milk. I learned this the hard way. Apparently when you already can’t sleep adding an even ever so slightly caffeinated herbal tea to the mix is not recommended.

I have started reading a “new” book that I got when I was in college. It is entitled, “Quarterlife Crisis: The unique challenges of life in your twenties.” So far the book has told me that now is the time to foolishly run my life into the ground, to pursue with reckless abandon the dreams that I had as a child and not look back. It has also told me to lobby for recess at work and to go to grad school. Time will tell how much of the advice I actually follow. Although I did already convince a coworker to play catch on our lunch break…

As a partial result of my change in sleep patterns and my new desire to determine where I went wrong since my life seems to be heading in the opposite direction of reckless abandon, I have been spending a bit of time with friends as well. Be it ice cream or girls night out or just chatting, I have been consulting (without much success) my friends for advice on what I should do with my life. Turns out they don’t really have much advice but the ice cream is at least consoling.

As for Hollywood… It seems Hollywood has romanced its grubby little self into the realm of my fictitious dating life. As a result there is not a man woman or beast that will be able to win me over. But I am working on that.

a new home for TWITLOL

I have become slightly bored I guess would be the best word with posting my blogs on facebook and myspace. So I am following the steps of my dear friend Natalie who is current;y in Kenya with the Peace Corps for the next two years,

Nothing much to post at this point although my cat is being horrendously naughty tonight. So I best go take care of him. I am not sure why he gets in these moods but it is not fun.
