Creative Thinking (Abigail part 2)

i don’t mean that in the way it’s generally meant…not in reference to art, brainstorming, etc. rather i mean it in how we relate to others. i have this belief and im not sure where it came from (maybe Jesus ) but was reminded of it when i was reading through Max Lucado’s “A [...]

Domestic Godess

no running no writin

i have had a lil bit of a blog hiatus. it might have something to do with my lack of running. i think the best during and after a run and i usually run six outta seven days a week but since my marathon it’s been sporadic.
This past week ive started running again every day [...]

down the drain

every contact wearer’s worse nightmare…watching your very last contact get lost in the abyss of drainage. especially if you are a runner AND this happens right before a run. a long one at that. right before it happened i was thinking: “man, this is my last contact, it would really bite if i lost it.” [...]

is anyone else so impulsive that it spills over into every aspect of their life? i find myself constantly feeling bad or having to “clean up” after myself because i say or act impulsively. im trying so hard to change this  about me. being impulsive can be a good thing but not in this way.

indecisive

me in one word, unfortunately. im very indecisive. i want to do everything and everything sounds good. When asked to do something i sincerely respond with “i don’t know, what would you like to do?” or “sure.” Not because i don’t know my own mind, but if i know what you want to do, it [...]

typical

i have all these serious blogs jostling around in my head but because my time is consumed with required thoughts for written assignments on exciting things such as the Psychopathological model, they are pushed aside and i humor myself with writing about more of the ridiculous. Which is what this post is all about. Well, [...]

zombie alert

it’s 3:33am and i can’t sleep. that’s a chronic problem with me. im not sure why, could be multiple reasons:

Brain won’t stop thinking (too bad it’s not like that during normal waking hours)

Shoulder is throbbing (im trying not to consume ibuprofen like chewable vitamin C)

The camp of chirping (high volume) birds (all 5million…ok [...]
