About Me

Well, frankly, if you don't already know me, this blog may contain way more than you wanted to know. Heck if you do know me, this may still be more than you wanted to know! My random daily events and "upbeat chatter" type entries go into my LiveJournal . This one is mostly where I put my attempts at poetry, and may eventually post (or offer to email) the story/book/? I started in November; didn't complete NaNoWriMo, but do plan to complete it. Primarily, my writing here is an attempt to process both my daily anxieties and the underlying issues that are causing/feeding my depression.

things you notice

So I'm having a rough night.  Always worried about my car of course (needs a new c/v joint, one of the lug bolts is not actually connected to anything, random fun stuff), job stress today (this baby h...

This is the teacher's dance and finale, since I know some folks were interested in seeing my teachers.  Plus they are awesome.  In the first lineup, all the way to the left (as we view it - house left...

Finally!

After having to download two different pieces of software and poke through more FAQs than I care to think about, I finally got my lyrical dance decrypted and posted.  I won't leave it up for long sinc...

tired

I am so tired of not trusting my car at all. Of getting called to the Tualatin location of my job in the middle of the night and getting there literally sick to my stomach from the anxiety that was b...

on dance and minds

So this evening was my dance recital.  This has been a LONG week.  Several reasons behind that.  Lots of obvious stuff on the surface - I haven't danced seriously in 12 years (aside from this year, of...

new times, old times

So today was picture day for dance.  The recital is coming up in just a few weeks.  And... wow, that's opening up a whole lot of stuff I hadn't forseen.  I should have, it's obvious in retrospect, but...

:(

You know, sometimes I wish my snake's food wasn't so damn cute.  I'm mostly used to it (since he refuses to eat frozen/thawed, live only for him), but sometimes it just makes me really sad.
