  • what if i never came back??

    i am sitting in my living room. it's 8.06 at night....and i have just spent the better part of the last few hours playing on the internet.

    i hate this thing.

    really, i do. it's addictive. i have watched random office videos, i have looked at every single person's facebook profile (congrats jared and tessah on your engagement! no surprises there :), i have even checked myspace!

    it's moment's like this where i really miss kenya...it's not this way now, but when i lived there, internet meant email and the only way you could get it was to dial in which took at least 20 tries and then all it did was check your email and see if you had gotten anything...

    here's the "funny" thing about it - i don't feel more rested, more useful - i feel more stressed out, more vegetative - just plain gross.

    List of things that are better than the internet:
    - books
    - real live conversations with people
    - walking outside
    - food
    - cleaning my house
    - taking out the trash
    - pretty much anything.

    stupid internet. i'm leaving.

  • not in labor

    i am not at work
    i am not cleaning the house
    i am not shopping
    i am not thinking about what the heck i am going to cook for dinner
    i am not worried about anything
    i am not laboring

    i am sitting
    i am content
    i am comfortable
    i am clean
    i am with family
    i am loved

    pretty much this picture is what my heart feels like right now - happy labor day!

  • Avacados the size of a small melon

    I love being home. The smell of the rain, the sound of the birds, the laughter of my family...*sighing and deep heart happiness*

    In other news, the fruit here is excellent, the chai is delicious, and the company impeccable. My love and I are headed off to safari this coming week, it should be great times! We asked my parents to come along, so the four of us will have some major bonding time :)

    Life here is slow, but excellent. The Dean, Tammy and Scott came to play. My hubby and my brother are getting along famously and wounding each other valiantly, as they should.

    Hmm, thats all for now.

  • time for a funeral?

    is xanga dying? is it time for a funeral? i have this sneaking suspicion that tons more people actually read xanga than comment (except, of course, unless you are matt olsen or chris choi), but i have been considering wandering aways from these pages to find a life outside...or something.
