As I've been soul searching today trying to figure out where my life got so off track, I got to thinking about high school and the people I knew then. I wrote before about how I have such a hard time keeping relationships with anybody going. I don't know why it's so hard for me to connect and stay connected with people. I no longer have contact with anybody I went to school with and haven't for many years. That's really sad with a graduating class of over 600 people and I still live in the town I grew up in.

Anyway, I started looking for the links to the old reunion sites that were up for our 2004 20-year reunion and found out the reunion committee made a site in anticipation of our 25th reunion in July of 2009. I think I'm going to attend that one. I noticed that a handful of classmates are already deceased. If I don't go this time, I may regret it later. I'm not going to set the reunion as a goal for getting my shit together, because those kind of things never work. That being said, however, I do want the person that goes to that reunion to be happy and on the right track. I've made some small steps over the last couple of days. Fessing up was the biggest. It made me pull my head out of the sand and start taking a good, hard look at my behavior and what it's doing to me.

Thank God It's Payday Friday! $$$

It's been an amazingly long and exhausting week. I haven't looked forward to Friday this much in a long time. I can't wait to sleep in tomorrow!

That said, I need to get off my butt and drag my carcass to work. I've been late every. single. day. this. week. Yesterday was especially bad due to an accident on I-225 that was ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY! Danged rubberneckers. Have a good Friday, everybody and I'll check in later when I get home.

Well, I'm still awake and it's almost 10. Argh! I forgot to change my EE setting to reflect the stupid DST. I'm writing this as a note to myself to change the times tomorrow.

There are just waaaaay too many albums that I absolutely love covering a wide spectrum of music. I tried to pick some of those that I play most often.

I saw this over at Lisa's site and figured, "Why not?" I'm not in the mood to post real content right now.
