So I got into work a lil early today, but did I start working right away? Why of course not...why would I do something like that? I mean, yes I planned on it...but then I checked my email and before I knew it I was window shopping on Torrid online, and then that led me to window shopping at Old Navy...and yeah, I've officially wasted a half an hour drooling over clothes I want, but I can't afford....but I still want ‘em. Good thing I get paid tomorrow, and then again on Saturday:) Aww….I love the feeling of money in the bank!

Which leads me to my babble this morning, why is it that people want what they can't have, why is it that for some the grass always looks greener on the other side. I guess its one of those things that is like an idiosyncrasy of human nature. I mean, yeah, there are days when the grass looks a lil more delightful than what I have in my front yard, but you know what, I'd never jeopardize what I have for whats next door. What I have is MINE, its my own grass, I worked for it...I water it (well the gardeners do) but you get the point. And if there comes a time where I want new grass, when my grass isn't making me happy, then I'll adapt, modify and move forward. I guess my point is to value what you have, make it your own, because in the end, who wants to spend the rest of their life looking next door and admiring somebody else's grass? Plant your own seeds, nurture them and then watch them grow.

I'm sad...well not really, bummed is more like it, I've been cut off from Myspace at work. Our web censors classified it as a "personals and dating" site, and I can no longer access it. Oh well, life moves forward. I'll miss the procrastination of bulletins, but I'll live. SO, if you're reading this (and more people read this than I'm aware of), send me some procrastination mail to wiskigirl@yahoo.com!

Speaking of which...when I started this blog I told two people about it, and bam, next thing I know people are like I saw your blog, and I'm like, the one on Myspace, and they're all, um no, your livejournal one...I guess I should've known better. I've realized that we (or more specifically I, I don’t want to use the pronoun we, because well I don’t know who YOU are) live in a vulture internet community. Somedays I'm amused by it and other days I think it’s incredibly ridiculously funny. Don't people have anything better to do? What happened to enjoying the world around you? What happened to having a life outside of the internet world? Sure, I'm a firm believer that we're all connected, but seriously, does it have to be through blogs, myspace, yahoo groups, IMs and all that jazz? Just something I've been thinking about lately....

I used to be addicted to my cell phone, I never went anywhere without it. It was in my pocket, my purse, held in my hands, whatever, it was there, right by my side. I would spend hours on the phone...and I thought nothing of it. Then one day I left my phone at home, and you know what, it was NICE! It was peaceful not having it beep and ring all the time. Sure, I love receiving text messages, but I also love leaving my phone on silent. I own my phone, it doesn't own me.

Anyways kiddies…work is long overdue…and in my typical Jerry Springer fashion, take care of yourself and each other!
