feeling blue

Published 31.1.06 by Porkchop | E-mail this post

it could be because my glucose is horrifyingly low. it could be because I just finished my 90 day review. it could be because I hate disappointing people. I hate saying no.

I feel as blue as the Norah Jones playing through my speakers. I feel tired. I feel old. I feel worn out.

I want to crawl into my shell and never come out.

If you learn to play guitar and sing you can come to Memphis and sing the blues. They love them some white girl who can sing it.

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.
