Odds and ends… or killing time till I can go to bed

June 12th, 2008

Here are a few random things… I’m way too tired to write much. We’re all playing Wii, and I’m essentially waiting for it to get dark enough to send Eliza to bed.

** It’s been a long and tiring week at work, but I feel really good about the work I’ve done. It feels like I’m doing so much better, like I understand things so much better. Of course, I worry that I’m wrong & just misguided. But I find that people ask me questions as if they assume I’ll know the answer. That’s such a big compliment to me, and yet, I worry these people are falsely placing their trust in me. I have to meet with my supervisor tomorrow to discuss all of my claims that I can’t figure out what to do with or have messed up or both. That’ll bring me back to reality, I’m sure. But maybe, just maybe, I really am getting better. Wouldn’t that be cool?

** I’m now loving So You Wanna Be an Old Supermodel on TVLand. I think it’s got a classier name, but come on, that’s what it is. Mike said last night that the women on it are meaner the the women on other reality shows… they don’t seem to bond like they do on Idol or Project Runway. Well, honey, these women are old. They don’t have time to bond. This is their last shot at this thing. They’ve got friends at home. They want to win. I think it should tide me over till Project Runway comes back next month.

** Griff watches too much tv. I know because I love tv. I’m so excited about the summer shows, I can hardly stand it.

** I’ve been praying. I know that if you haven’t been reading my blog for long, that probably sounds odd. But for those of you who’ve been with me through this journey of moving and being angry at God and then thinking God was angry with me and then being a bit ambivalent, well, it’s a good thing to be praying and feeling that warmth and connection that comes from that.

** There was super response to my Swap Me, Sell Me, Chai Me. I have a couple pieces left if anyone didn’t play the first time and wants to jump in now.

Now, I’m thinking I’ll go slather my LUSH Sacred Truth on my face and try to scare Eliza into bed. If it doesn’t work, I’ll at least have smooth skin.

    Such transparency! Thanks for sharing both the fun and the struggle of your day.

    Oooh, I love project runway. Can’t wait for it to come back either. I am getting my reality fix with so you think you can dance right now. It’s not as good as last year because I was totally in love with Pasha and the show’s not the same without him to watch.

    I say if people are asking you how to do things at work then you must be doing something right.

    I totally understand the whole mixed up relationship with God. I have totally been there!

    Well, enjoy your smooth skin.

    I love the fact that you watch too much TV. ‘Cause I watch too much TV.

    Kellie, thanks for the comment about the transparency. I strive for that here. It’s nice to know people see that in what I write.

    And I do love tv. My subscription to TV Guide ran out recently, and I’m going through withdrawals.
