A "G-Rated Journal" That Even My Mother Can Read (because she does!)

Effervescence is a state of mind. It's about choosing to bring sunshine to the day.
Every person I meet matters.

If it's written down, I know it (If it's not written down, I don't know it)
If it's color-coded, I understand it (If it's not color-coded, I don't understand it)

A Small Kvetch

Tue Apr 11 - You know what? I'm going to kvetch for a moment here: I have too many cute single friends lately. *grumble, heavy sigh, giggle*

I have this really cool widget on my desktop at work that is a rotating photo frame. I point it to a series of folders, and it randomly brings up a different photo every 5 minutes. I have pictures of family, friends, events, all kinds of things in this set of folders. It's really nice to see my nieces pop up, my grandparents, a friend of mine in her bellydance glam shots, whatever.

But today has been one of those "darn it" kind of days where every time another cute single friend pops up and I catch myself looking over at their photo and sighing meloncholy, I just want to smack my head against the wall. Argh.

Just Sunday night my roomie and I were joking about what a blessing it is to be single. There are *SO* many wonderful things about the freedom we each have to do such a wide variety of things in our lives, with no one to answer to but ourselves. I teased right back that the only major bummer is having no one to kiss, and she joked that it's sad that it's no longer acceptable to be a Femme Fatale anymore.

Laugh with me please, or come smack your head against my desk with me.

Don't get me wrong. I adore my single cute friends. And I wouldn't want any of them to go away. They bring great joy and sunshine into my life. And sometimes I can joke about living vicariously through them when they find someone to date.

I just wish I wasn't sighing sometimes that I'm not a good match for any of them. *sigh, flourish, theatrical melodrama*

Okay. Enough of that. *grin* And those of you tempted to comment on this... you might consider writing me a personal email: Remember, this journal is read by my Mom and my Aunties and Uncles... let's keep it a family show, hmm? Write me offlist, if you must. *wink*

* * * * *
Today's Blessing That I'm Thankful For: Eric/Marcos, for being sunshine.
* * * * *
Exercise: I did 3 walking laps around my work campus in the late afternoon/early evening.

Weight Loss This Week: Tue 4/11: 16.2 lbs lost total (up +0.4 from yesterday) But today's pants definitely also need to be taken in, so that's a good sign.
