Happy Birthday To Me.

Just a few things..

In case someone wanders over here, but they probably know all of this anyway.

1.  I went to the cardiologist for the first time in my life today.  It was an interesting experience.  Nothing showed up when they did the 12 second EKG, so I'm scheduled for an echo and a halter (24 hr EKG) next week.  Should be interesting.  I have also been advised to cut down on my caffeine intake.  *ChOkEgAgDIE*  I've been chugging decaf iced americanos all day.  I'm now drinking more decaf than regular coffee, just to be spiteful.

2.  After that appointment, I had another for a sonogram to find out what the hell is causing all of the random out of place bleeding I've been experiencing, since naturally, all of the obvious causes were not it.  Nothing in my life can ever be simple >_< Having someone press on you when you've got about 2 liters of water sitting in your bladder and it not being socially acceptable to pee it all over them is a torture I wish on no one.

3.  Finished summer session yesterday.  Have a couple of weeks off until the next semester starts again.  I really wish I could take more classes.  Kevin being all up in the air all the time annoys me to no end.  I don't tell him this because I know it's not really his fault, but I can't help but feel resentment that my life is constantly put on hold because his has yet to move forward appropriately.

4.  I turn 31 in less than an hour.  I've been giving a lot of thought about where my life has ended up to now (as I am wont to do around this time of year), and while some very great things have happened, it still feels like I'm not a real grownup yet, and my life is still waiting to happen.  I really wish I knew how to fix that.  I've tried to fill it with hobbies, with spirituality, with school and friendships, but I just don't feel settled yet.  I want to feel like we can become a part of a community rather than just sitting on the outside of one.  I want somewhere for my kids be settled, and not have to worry about yanking them out of schools because we're moving again.  I want a HOME.

Aural boyfriend

A friend of mine just posted a Jeff Buckley song on their facebook page.  I remember when I first heard him.  I was in 10th grade and Daria introduced me to Grace.  From the very first listen I was absolutely lovestruck.  The voice, the lyrics, the way he breathed between phrasing... I still get chills to this day.

He was playing a small show in NYC, and we desperately wanted to go.  A local radio station had tickets, and while it wasn't an actual contest, Daria and I called them up and sang a song about him set to the tune of Hole's Doll Parts hoping to impress them (or make them pity us).   I don't remember all of the words, but I know it ended with the line "Sooooomeday we will see Jeff Buuuuckleeeeyyyy".  They laughed, told us we were amusing, but didn't give us any damned tickets.  He died not long after that.

He sang the way I always wished a boy would sing to me.

ARGH!

AT&T can go fuck themselves.  Seriously. 

I won't be able to use my new phone until I am able to get to an Apple store to get two new SIM cards because someone at AT&T didn't know what they were doing and deactivated both cards.  So not only do I not have my NEW phone, I don't have use of my old phone either.

I spent nearly two hours on the phone, spoke to 6 different customer service reps at both Apple and AT&T and I have nothing to show for it except for two non-working phones.

Such bullshit.

It's Here!

The lovely fedex man just dropped off my shiny new iPhone :D  Now I just have to get this thing all set up.

Directions

Every blog I follow seems to follow some sort of central theme.  There are the parenting blogs, the gossip blogs, the birth activism/support blogs, comedy blogs, cooking/food blogs etc...  I keep coming to this space to write things, but honestly, I don't know what direction I really intend for this to go.

Perhaps I'll just keep at it and see what develops.  I wish I was more interesting.
