heck yeah we bowled

Well, we went bowling. Had a great time… funny how Kate and I were neck and neck almost the whole time. We played twice, and we each won one. Guess I can’t complain too much. She kept wanting to practice high fiving me, which was awesome. We ate horrid bowling alley food… usually I like that sort of thing, but not so much at this place… even Kate had issues with it.

Quote of the day from Kate:
“Mom, you know, if a robber came by and stole my chicken nuggets, I wouldn’t even mind!”

Do nuns have maids?

Geez it’s bad when I’m procrastinating my Procrastination Blog.

Guess it was to be expected.

The Job: called too late, he’s already filled the position. I had a whole conversation with myself over whether it “wasn’t meant to be” or if my laziness cost me something cool. I’d prefer to choose option a. Something else will come along.

The Divorce: postponed til September, looks like. I’m SOOO ready for all this to be done, so I can get on with my life. I’ve sort of already started doing that, hence the next category….

The Love Interest: Found my best best friend from highschool, who just happens to also be my first love. I’m trying desperately not to hang on to past emotions as far as he’s concerned. He always makes me laugh, and I can be myself with him. He knows all my hopes and fears about my future.. namely that I’m scared to death of repeating past mistakes, and that I’m thinking of just becoming a nun, to avoid future complications. Right now he’s just being a great source of support for me, and he tells me what I need to hear. Filling best friend status smashingly.

The Girls:

Are fabulous… Abby’s at camp in Tampa right now… church camp with my old church. No shorts, no tank tops, swimming in shorts and a t-shirt, even when she’s only with other girls. Irks me to death, but she loves the camp, so I’m not going to have a fit about it. I just don’t want her thinking that that’s how the real world works, so I have work to do with her, to counteract that ‘us vs them’ mentality of those folks. More on that later, I’m sure.
Kate and I have been chilling out here, not doing a whole lot… but we’re going bowling this afternoon, maybe I’ll end up with some pics from that to show later. This may be the only way I end up ’scrapbooking’… and what’s funny is that most folks that I know won’t even be seeing it. I’ll just share with you guys.

The Apartment: Is a disaster. I swear, I need ADD meds or a maid. I can’t decide which. I just can’t seem to focus on getting things straight. It just seems so unimportant to me. Don’t get me wrong, I’d love for things to neat and pretty, but I just get overwhelmed looking at it.

Just noticed that I have 2 different fonts going on. ha. oh well.

Ok that’s it for now, I’m gonna hop in the shower.

What I’m procrastinating today: 1) At the moment I…

What I’m procrastinating today:
1) At the moment I have no car insurance. My parents bought me a car about ummm 2 months ago… yeah I never called to get it changed over. Mom’s having a freak out fit and I KNOW that I need to get it done, but the idea of doing it seems monstrous. Instead, I find that living in fear of a fender bender is somehow preferable. Yes I’m 33. I think perhaps meds would be a good idea. Do they make anti–procrastination medication? What would it be called? I’ll contemplate and get back to bloggage on that one. I bet J5 could help me out.

2) Cleaning my apartment. I have some garbage bags out on the back porch that have been there for about a week now. Being that I live in Florida, it might be a little rank out on the ole balcony. I can’t smell it from here, and nothing’s leaking out of the bags so I guess I’m ok for now. But it really should be done soon.

3) Sending an email to my custody lady about the stbx’s recent attempts to keep me out of the loop children-wise. I won’t get into that now, but ya know, I’m sure it will come up again in the near future, and at that point I’ll be in discuss-every-stupid-arrogant-thing-he’s-ever-done phase. Wait for it….Wow I think that’s it on the procrastination for the day. Of course it’s early, so I could conceivably think of something else at any point… OH!

4) Call my old neighbor. I think I have a job opportunity. I’ve been sitting on my duff since November, waiting for my divorce to happen. Now that it’s been put off until September, I think perhaps I’m tired of putting my life on hold. I procrastinate a lot of things, but LIFE? not so much. So anyway. Job. Office manager-type thing for a guy who used to live under me here at Lotus. I’m supposed to answer phones and.. get this… pay his bills on time and stuff. SHhh we won’t tell him….That’s it for now, I’m sure I’ll return for more fun stuff.

Yep, so here I am.

Did lots of fun stuff this afternoon. We went out to the pool, which I thought was deserted, but there turned out to be the Lone Creepy Guy hanging out in the corner. He was a tad skeevy, with his big dark shades on. I wondered why he was even there. Not swimming, not sunning, just sort of … pooling. I don’t quite get it.

oops, almost the end of today… if I say more later, it’ll be on tomorrow’s blog.

End of Day 1
