My precious nephew

Yesterday was Noah's 12th birthday (!) and he apparently told my brother, "I'm going to miss being 11. There was so much more I wanted to do." Awww.

Phone calls

I know I've complained about this before, but it's so annoying that Jenny wants to talk on the phone so much more than I do. She always complains that I don't talk to her, so I answer the phone, talk to her for about half an hour, say I'm going to go, and she complains...but we just started talking! No...that was half an hour ago. Anyway, after 5 minutes of complaining, she finally 'lets' me get off the phone but says call me later. I go, I don't know if I'm going to. If I have anything new to say, then I will call. She says, but I always have stuff to talk about; you don't have to say anything. Yeah, great. So, I say maybe I'll call. She goes, whatever, I'll call you at 8. And you WILL answer. I don't think so; but we'll see.

job (in)stability

Even my own mom is basically firing me. I was helping her by cleaning her condo, and because I kept having to reschedule, she said she is canceling our agreement. That feels like shit. I hope she changes her mind. Grr. Am I really this horrible of a worker??

Baby steps

I finally did some cardio exercise today. Only about 11 minutes (but who's counting?), but hey, it's a start. Waking up a little earlier just might be better for me. Who would have thought?? I've washed half the dishes and taken a shower too. Maybe it's all the coffee I drank? Let's see if I can do it again tomorrow.

Greetings

I am no good at the hug/kiss hello. I can't stand how it has become a thing. I mean, I guess for quite a while now it's been a thing. But seriously, I always go for the hug, and men go for the kiss on the cheek. It's very awkward; I've never gotten comfortable with the kiss/kiss on the cheek at the same time thing. So then, instead, I either hug them while they kiss me, or I kind of offer them my cheek to kiss while I do nothing, which feels like I"m some kind of royalty or something. If it's someone I'm close with, I don't mind; things feel natural, but with acquaintances, it's very awkward. And everyone needs to touch you in some form both when you say hello, AND when you say goodbye! Ugh. We're not that close.

yawn

I think I'm still depressed; why do I sleep so much? I woke up at 3 today.

I Broke the Fast

It was the usual nice celebration at my bro's and sis-in-law's tonight. Now I"m home, which is nice too; I'm having a pumpkin beer, but oh my gosh, it's freezing in here!!!! If you're reading this, I hope you're having a nice night.
