Domestic Geek

Man, I did this meme back in September and then promptly forgot about it until I came across a site doing it during my Thursday Thirteen wandering last weekend.

Ten Things I’d Like to Learn How to Do

Oil paint Play the guitar Make homemade spaghetti noodles Properly work a digital camera (besides using autofocus) Ride a motorcycle

Yoga Can fruits & Veggies Make baby back ribs Knit Waterskiing

Gee, no surprise here. I'm not agreeing with everything in the description part, though. I'm certainly swayed by emotions!

Thanks to Colleen, I guess I should've mentioned that I am a Virgo. Silly me!

For some reason, I was wired last night. I think you can tell by the late hour of my previous posts. I was hyper and my mind was racing. I ended up not going to sleep until well after midnight. I don't know what caused it as I didn't consume any caffeine or anything late in the evening. I had some tea with dinner before 6pm. I consumed a peanut buster parfait right after dinner and if I'm going to get a sugar rush, it happens within an hour. Then I took an hour long soak in the tub to relax before bed. I should've been out like a light since I only got six hours of sleep the previous night and was pretty sleepy after the bath, but no such luck. It was strange. Then, after I was finally tired enough to sleep, I started having some sort of allergy attack or something. I got stuffy, was wheezing and then the coughing set in. It was so weird. So, I'm on 5 or less hours of sleep. I hope this doesn't cause me to make any critical mistakes at work today. I'm seeing an after work nap in my future.

Bah, I'm still up and I should've been in bed awhile ago. I don't want to go to work tomorrow...not because I don't like my job, but I have so much I need to do around here and two days in a weekend is just not long enough to get everything accomplished. *sigh*

I'm finally getting a little inspiration for a blog design I want to work out, too, but having to go to work everyday puts a little crimp in my design time. I also am a little brain fried by the time I'm off shift and have been at a computer all day. Doesn't really put one in a creative design frame of mind. Why, oh why can't I be independently wealthy so I can pursue my hobbies?

Getting out of this park has been topmost in my mind lately, too. I'm really wanting to have a garden and get dogs, again. It's just not right to be a dog person and have no canines in your life, y'know?

This is more of a note to self, but I watched two movies yesterday and I must remember to tell you my thoughts on them tomorrow.

OK, making myself go get ready for bed.
