Things I've Been Thinking About

IN THE NEWS: "BUNOL, Spain - Spanish revelers have pelted each with 113 tons of ripe tomatoes in an annual food fight." Read more here.


Well, I had a nice visit with my mom yesterday. The only thing that kills me is the drive. It's about an hour each way--so I guess it could be worse--but it still sucks the life out of me every time I do it.

Of course, I was able to ponder quite a few things as I drove that long distance--which is always sweet. Just to be able to THINK in peace is a nice change of pace for me. But then my mind began to ramble on and then instead of having relaxing thoughts, I got anxious.

Here's a few things I couldn't let go:

Will I ever finish this manuscript I've been writing?

How will I take down the curtains in my dining room to have them dry cleaned?

What the heck am I going to blog about at the Samhain blog this weekend? Who's going to be reading it anyway on a holiday weekend?

Should I have my bedroom painted or should I get a new dishwasher?

Should I enter the Eppies?

When was the last time I cleaned out my refrigerator? There's blue cheese in there. It's been in there a while, but how will I know if it's bad or not?


Hmmm.. That last thought still is bothering me. I love blue cheese, but, come on, I'm not hard of smelling! I mean, that stuff stinks and is moldy already. So how do you know if it's gone bad?

Yeah. I don't know either, so I threw out what I had to be sure, but it still perplexes me.

What's been on your mind lately?

Sounds intriguing...the blue cheese thing. ;oD Don't you hate it when you do that? I've done that a lot lately at 3 am with the newborn. You'll get it all figured. And if not, you'll be no worse than you are right now!

Hmmm... maybe a book on CD would take your mind off your worries. At least you got them out during the day, mine usually attack while I'm trying to fall asleep.

I don't think blue cheese ever goes "bad." Personally I think it's bad from the start! :D

I think I might be too tired to have anything on my mind. LOL
