I haven't been in the mood for blogging lately. With my other "projects" and all I haven't really wanted to write about my feelings. As a matter of fact, I've even neglected my personal journal. I've been in the mood for talking and personal contact. Now that I am back to being a gapping statistic ... sigh. In any event, I've been in constant conflict as of late. It seems that all of my relationships have been a source of angst. I would go into detail but I've been interrupted so many times while I've been trying to type this that I've lost the drive. I've been longing to go away....go away.....go away..... So, what have I been doing? Working, reading and catching up on videos.

There's a song that I absolutely adore by Teena Marie. Stop the World . She begs with all the pain of a woman overwhelmed with life's pressures s top the world I want to get off it's turning much too fast. Although this weekend should have ideally been as relaxing as the last, it wasn't. I could shut my mind off. Overstimulation perhaps? I watched The Devil Wears Prada on DVD. Cute flick. I also went to the theater (gasp) to see The Pursuit of Happyness . Great film. From what I understand naturally the script writer took liberties with the story but they story that was told was engaging. It got a little long at the end and I felt burdened by all of his problems. I would love to the see the 20/20 piece that everyone keeps referring to. I may also try to read the book during the holidaze. Next movie I plan to see is Dreamgirls . During the 30 minutes (I kid you not!) of previews I saw a few upcoming movies that looked really good. Sunday was a complete disaste...

I've been craving comfort lately. Comfortable people, comfortable places and comfort food. That song is right...Christmas just ain't Christmas without the one you love. Someone to buy gifts for and make special holiday treats for him to sample. And another thing, who the hell let the mean people out? I left the house early this morning to get to work on time...almost like a special holiday treat for the boss ya' know? Naturally I was assaulted because of course I couldn't just mind my own business and be peaceful. Incident number one occurred on a downtown express train. I was lucky to get a seat and after getting the 'pod set with the right mood music pulled out Fever to continue reading where I'd left off the other night. I have the tunes going and I am reading when the woman sitting in the seat facing mine gets up for her stop and knocks the book out of my lap without so much as a glance backward to acknowledge what she did. I started a slow simmer. ...

For the first time in a long time I actually had a relaxing weekend. I didn't HAVE to be anywhere at any particular time. So I took the time to walk and relax. The weather was nice (considering it is December) and now I am refreshed and clear minded. The ex I wrote about in the last post reached out to try to reconnect. I'm not going that route again althought it would be nice to have a snuggle partner for the cold winter months. I'll just settle for the snuggles from my kitty poo. When she is in the mood. I did a lot of reading this weekend which is something I hadn't been doing for a while. I would read a little here and there but I actually let me mind focus long enough to finish Do You Take This Woman and start Fever by Dominique. I'm going to try to finish Fever this week or next weekend. I also plan to finish Friday Night at Honeybee's before the holiday season ends since I will have some free time. I've had a couple of offers for Christmas but...
