Long time, no post

Thursday, October 30th, 2003

It’s been several days since I posted, and nothing’s showing on my front page, since I have my settings set to show just the past four days or something. It’s not that I don’t have anything to post, but rather that I have so much going on that I don’t have the time to [...]

Baby games

Friday, October 24th, 2003

I have so many things I need to do and a million more things I want to do, but instead of doing any of them I’m sitting here in front of the computer. Part of it is because I’m lazy and I like to put things off, but a bigger part is because I [...]

Toys and Sleds

Thursday, October 23rd, 2003

Tage’s entertaining himself right now, so I’d better take the opportunity to type while I can! He’s so cute … he’s got the plastic box-type thing from some toy package and he’s put a ball into it and is pushing it around the room. I don’t know what it is with little boys, [...]

A little rant-y

Wednesday, October 22nd, 2003

This is the first chance I’ve gotten to sit down and type a real post in several days. If I try to type when Tage is awake he wants to be at the keyboard “helping” me, and he takes his naps in my lap, so I can’t type then, either (unless it’s one-handed, which [...]

Rude awakening …

Monday, October 20th, 2003

This is what I was greeted by when I took the dogs outside at 7:00 this morning:

I’ll write more later, when I’ve recovered sufficiently from the shock.

Jag vill inte!

Friday, October 17th, 2003

I could claim that I’m making up for two days with no entry by posting twice today, but that would be a lie. The truth is that I’m procrastinating. I should be writing a book review of Alkemisten for my Swedish class, but every time I try I just draw a blank. [...]

The Fall Classic

Friday, October 17th, 2003

I am so glad I’m not a Red Sox fan. That game last night would have given me a heart attack. I’m seriously having sympathy pains for all the Sox fans right now … to be sooooo close, then lose it in extra innings is just torture. I guess there are worse [...]

Assimilation

Tuesday, October 14th, 2003

I took an online quiz a couple of months ago that was supposed to tell you what your political leanings were. There were several pages of statements, and you were supposed to give them a rating somewhere from Strongly Agree to Strongly Disagree. One of the statements, in particular, stands out in my [...]

Medicated

Monday, October 13th, 2003

For the past several years I have cycled in and out of depression and anxiety, and thus far have been unable to find any lasting fix. When Tage was almost three months old, I started having panic attacks and general anxiety that all but sidelined me for a couple of months. I was [...]

Sunday

Sunday, October 12th, 2003

Here it is almost ten o’clock on Sunday night and I don’t feel like I even had a weekend. I don’t know where all the hours went. When I got up this morning I was delighted to see what a gorgeous day it was outside, and I had visions of washing loads and [...]
