A while back I did a blog post on assorted thoughts and today is just one of those days, where I just feel like sharing a bunch of unrelated thoughts with you.
*I started reading the Hunger Games (I discussed my apprehension and reasons briefly here). I am willing to eat my words…because so far the first book is good. Really really good. I plan to read for at least another hour tonight and then I have to watch some “light” t.v. because just like Lost and Damages, I can’t sleep very well when I go to bed after reading this. However, I also can’t seem to put it down. I can’t win.
*Tomorrow is picture day. I hate picture day. I wish I had remembered and I would have purchased the shirt I tried on when I went shopping with my mom on Saturday. I have no idea what I’m wearing. Hopefully I get enough rest so I look halfway decent. Oh, and I hate picture day.
*I am sick. I feel like I’ve been sick off and on with the same crud since Christmas. I’ve got this awful cough, stuffy nose, and just an “ugh” feeling. I hate it. I had the worst headache today.
*Speaking of headaches, when I have a bad headache, nothing else matters. I don’t care about getting any extra work done at home or school. I don’t care about carrying on any kind of conversation. And most unfortunately, I don’t care what I put in my mouth. I have this weird compulsion to eat when I have a headache and I’ll eat anything to make it go away.
*I had a math meeting this morning. I am excited about some potential upcoming things. Someday I will tell you more about my conversion to complete math nerd. Math is honestly my most passionate subject matter as right now. Weird, I always thought it would be reading.
*I am really thinking of going back to school a little at a time starting this summer/next fall. I have picked an area of interest and I’m truly excited about it which is a good feeling. A while back I was feeling like I didn’t even have a clue what I wanted but I was feeling extremely restless. Thanks to a good principal who constantly badgers me about when I’m going back to school and a coworker who is finishing her degree, I have made a step…small but still…in that direction.
*Humble people make me want to be a better person. Humble people make me want to cry at any given moment. Humble people are the best!
*I created a profile on mormon.org…you should check it out here
{I blog a lot about my faith. I want to be clear that I don’t do it to try to get people to convert or to try to convince you that I’m right. I do it because it’s of great value to me and I like to share my thoughts and feelings. If you belong to a different faith, I would LOVE to hear your thoughts when I write about spiritual matters.}
* I have several things I still need to blog about so I don’t know why I spent time doing this, but there were lots of little things to share.
Any little things you’d like to share?
I have had headaches all week. I get them whenever our weather is really funky, when people are covered in smoke or perfume and when I am awake. So basically all the time. So I can feel your pain! I loved the comment about eating anything and everything to make it go away. That has always been my philosophy too.
Hi Sharlee,
So sorry that you haven’t been able to shake the yucky bug that’s been hanging on (and on and on and…). I frequently have headaches too and all I want to do is go to sleep so that I don’t have to feel it. And I pretty much don’t want to interact with anyone – which doesn’t work out so well with a class of 27 5th graders needing interaction. Just curious, when you’re feeling ‘yuck’, do you like to be left alone or do you want someone (Zach) to sit with you? My husband wants someone to sit there and listen to him moan—- which is super annoying since I just want to be left alone. The “in sickness” part is pretty hard then. :P
I like you sharing random thinkings. Remember in You’ve Got Mail, one of them talks about how the everyday nothings become somethings when they are shared. It’s part of why I enjoy your blog. Feel better!
