Jealousy
It’s what’s for dinner. That and a nice cup of hot cocoa for a cold maine summer. I hope it was as dreary and cold everywhere else as it was here. grrr…
Anyhoo, I sense my posts are getting negative. Must start practicing my positive thinking again. Manana. Slept for crap last night. But have had a good day today just chillin’. Reading my book. I realized the book I’m reading is by an author I read about in down east a while ago. I like her writing. It’s kind of depressing because now I feel like my book is total shit. I need a story, man. A real story, not just the fluff I have going on now. Well, I’ll think of something. As much of an imagination as I have, I just don’t really have that talent for the angles… and as suspicious and untrusting a mind as I have, I dont’ have a talent for underhanded plots. Everything seems obvious to me and I can’t think of anything subtle. I need more stuff like that too.
Rented the good shepherd, which was ok. And Pan’s Labyrinth, whch I liked.
Anyway, on to important subjects, like my hair. I got it cut (even though I finally got it to a nice long stage that I was happy with), and dyed it brown. She left some red highlights on the top layer and it’s actually kind of cool. I think I’ll have to start wearing red lipstick again though, just to battle the frump factor.
Bought a crimson king norway spruce for the front yard and got it planted yesterday. It looks awesome. And some slug traps to put beer in. They definitely like the beer but I didn’t have anything deep to put it in, so I’m basically just hosting a slug happy hour every day. Haven’t got those in yet. The clover is back in all the places I spent entire weekends removing it from. But I just can’t get out in this weather. Planted a bunch of stuff in the weed garden.
I’ve been doing my weight lifting religiously. Have also programmed cardio into my palm, so right now I have 3 overdo exclamation marks telling me I’m 3 days behind. I’ll just do 4 cardio workouts tomorrow. : ) I don’t feel like getting all sweaty. I don’t feel like moving at all, actually. I feel like laying back on my chair and reading more of my book. I haven’t been this into a book in a long time. I feel sort of gloomy and giddy at the same time. Summer mania combined with dreary weather blues I guess. Sleepy.
