Alrighty. This is very frustrating to me.

I came to the office to fill in for Joy and be helpful and that sort of general thing. Well, the entire time has been spent answering three phone calls, eating half a can of fat free pringles and studying. Now studying is all fine and dandy, because that is the exact same thing I would do if I were home, except I would be in comfy clothes, with nice music, enjoying the glorious weather. Instead I am shivering at my desk, wondering just what on earth Dad does all day with his door closed.

Joy had better be grateful, and better get back soon.

And, I am slightly worried about Jared. I returned his call Monday night, and his phone was off. I haven't heard from him since, which is very unusual. Maybe they are doing field exercises, maybe his phone died, maybe he is in the hospital, maybe he is dead... maybe. Why on earth am I worried about it? What is my major malfunction? Maybe I need to get a life! That sounds like a simply spanky plan, except, there is nothing to do! Which compounds the problem ever so slightly.

I wish I could sleep away the next three years of my life! Alas I cannot!


This odd narrative is my life. I ended up in Pittsburgh, of all places--from the beach. I have no hobbies, other than cooking excessively and eating microwave popcorn. I enjoy shopping, the Food network, hiding the remote so the Food network cannot be turned off, find ethnic food stores and restaurants and reading voraciously. My life is decidedly pedestrian.


I worked in the car business where I was required to be ruthless and soul-less wench, which is when I started this project. Since then, I've kept it up because secretly, I've always wanted to join the military. Every male in my mother's family has joined and I quietly entertain thoughts of joining. I haven't yet and don't know if I ever will, but sending the troops cookies keeps me sane. it makes me think I still have a shred of human kindness left in my withering soul. it's a small way for me to salute the men and women who are brave enough to fight for freedom. And makes me feel like I'm contributing toward troop morale--even if I'm not. So if you want to help, send me addresses of troops you know stationed overseas. you may also contribute toward the cost of chocolate chips, but don't feel obligated, that link is here only by request.
