it almost makes it worth it

these pictures mean nothing to 95% of you

but they mean the world to me

i have been immensely blessed

with a wonderful family & incredible friends

thank you

wet mondays

you know it's going to be a bad Monday when your day starts out like so:

*you realize all of your contacts in your phone have been deleted by a software update

* you are on the bus when you are frantically trying to retrieve your lost phone numbers

*you are so busy dinking with your phone when you look up and realize that you missed your stop

*which wouldn't be so bad, except your stop is the very last one

*you remember your bus is the very last bus into downtown as you are getting on the freeway, heading to the garage

*you run to the front of the bus and tell the driver that you missed your destination

*you scare the crap out of him because he has NO idea he still has a passenger on board

*the driver desperately pulls the bus over, as if you have him at gun point

so there you are, walking on a 6-inch ledge on the freeway

in the pouring rain

as buses and cars speed past you, dousing you as you fade into their rear-view mirrors

i have issues

okay, so i have a lot of issues. probably so many that one might suggest i go see a shrink. but for now, let's just focus on one.

commitment issues

i think i have always been this way, but i can't be sure.

• i had a 6 year relationship with someone before i met my husband.
• i didn't get sweaty palms at all when i was getting married.
• thinking of having kids... bring it on (no this is not an annoucement)

however, committing to a doctor appointment, or even committing to weekend plans might send me to the loony bin.

what is wrong with me?
