sunday mornings i miss you the most

i feel i need to blog, if nothing else than to move the pity-party of a previous post on down the page. alliteration anyone?

today has been lovely. i may have discovered the way to enjoy my mondays off. sleep in, eat breakfast/watch ellen, clean, looong workout, shower, read, nap, do laundry. the perfect mix of productivity and relaxation. hopefully sometime soon i'll be volunteering at a food pantry for 3 hours every monday. after all, somebody's gotta direct people to the green beans.

recently i have:

learned to appreciate yoga it's something i used to loathe. relaxation my big toe. when you are particularly NOT flexible, contorting your body is painful and not peaceful. however i've found a kind that is "power" yoga and seems more like it should be hard work and i like it.

restarted soccer. technically first game is tomorrow against the team that won the summer league. now we have full-sized goals instead of the ones 3 year old use. yay. we won't get pummelled at all. oh and we have the worst name in the league. again. but i'm looking forward to it all the same.

purchased a $10 ticket to DC for the beginning of march. it's like 10 degrees up there all the time. it's 60 something today in austin. i will freeze and whine endlessly no doubt. but i will love the sites and i get to see my aunt sing in an opera at the kennedy center (tickets pending) and i'll be in marvelous company. it will be fun and i'll be sure to share stories, pics, etc. when i come back.

thrust myself into the realm of uber-involvement at church. as i've mentioned previously, i'll be working with the social justice committee on thursday nights. beginning tonight i'm also brain-washing teens into signing their souls over to the pope (i.e. teaching confirmation classes) and then next week i'll begin leading a lenten bible study. who on earth decided that i would be a suitable spiritual guide for these adorable little balls of teenage madness, i will never know. but i'm leading them all the same. be afraid. and then there's the aforementioned mondays at the food pantry. my once blank schedule has suddenly be filled. it should be a nice change of pace.

been asked to be a "skilled user" for a program at work. this means i'll have to help everyone else troubleshoot their problems. this could be a problem considering the fact that i can't even get into the program with the password and username i was given. think there are super duper skilled users to help me?

i'm currently attempting to grow my hair out. i have dreams in which my hair is long, flowing and adorably styled. i wake up and it's just short and awkward. this too shall pass.

i am boring and unfunny. monday's will do that to you.

  • you are neither boring nor unfunny. and i think that you would be bee-yootifurl with logn hair. i have never seen anything but the pixie cut, i dont think, so i think it would be a great adventure for you.

    thank you for your advice. i've decided that i am not close enough to the cheater/cheatee parties to say anything. its frustrating for me because i know i'd want to know if someone cheated on me. argh. but seriously thank you dear.
