23 and 24
Can I tell you how worn out i am... somehow going north last weekend has made me a tired camper. I can't think of doing much this weekend but relaxing even though my favorite spanking band is in town.. but the idea of crowds and crap dissuades me from wanting to attend. Perhaps after a good nights sleep all will be different. I want to relax and yet, part of that is getting the house in order more.. Boo has been home and we've been moving, cleaning, fixing, organizing like mad but just aren't done..heck we haven't even started painting the living room. I am also craving some crafting without flowers time, some reading outside time while drinking my kick ass sangria.
Oh and we got a new couch from nicole today.... living room is coming together...especially after some ikea purchases.....
I am working on monday as I am taking off time later in the week and have plenty of work and need to not use vacation time. A day alone in the office seems like a wonderful idea full of productivity.

Jewishness
I feel like I'm a world of anti religion.... the young hip forward thinking folks scoff at G-d....what do i believe, not sure... but there is a young world that goes with the Eddie Izzard/Golden Rule approach we'd all be good - If you don't want it done to you.. don't do it to others. Don't want to be murdered, well don't kill others..
Well fine, that great and I don't think heavily about religion its just part of who I am and if we were to go secular the holidays I still see them being based on the big JC. I can't see past that. They aren't just about gifts and candy to me.
I keep kosher, its part of who i am, I know its a pain, i know its not "normal" but not doing it feels like cutting off an arm. With Boo home and my house being the place to go for my friends I feel like I'm being ganged up on to not keep kosher. Its not happening. Do i have a good reason to keep kosher, guess not, i don't think G-d is going to smote me. But the idea of giving it up hurts me inside like a pain I can't explain, it makes me want to cry. Why, I don't know.... i can't explain it.. so stop asking me to do it.

Selfishness
I've been dealing with a lot of selfish people lately and I wonder if they know they are. Even the dogs are working the selfishness and frankly, I'd like my side of the bed back. I always worry I'm being selfish, bringing the conversation back to my experience etc. I used to be selfish, i know it, I've reflected, repented, and reacted... I try to be better through acts and thoughts. Some say I've been quiet lately, maybe I'm just letting others do there thing...
At work we are redoing some of our standards and I keep getting people telling me what they want, what would be good for them. Its not about you, its about a standard created though lots of input and now is finite. The drama has been intense and its just annoying.
I also have been trying to tune my listening skills. Acts of giving and selflessness is not just material matters. Whomever is talking might not want my take, or my similar experience or want to hear about what happened to me. I think I've even used that on the blog more which is why the posts are down. Am i really that fantastic, no. Is my day that crappy, no and if it is, well its not the forces of evil trying to get me. Shit happens.
So I ask you, are you being selfish? We are important, but sometimes, we're not.

Lunesta free for 3 days
And ya know what, i'm gonna need to rebudget so I can get my lunesta...because when you don't take it, you are up at 3 am thinking how you forgot skirt hangers at target today. I'm not just awake, i'm like, hey, i could clean my whole house awake. I took some valerium but i think its too old and not working... I was quite excited to have a partner in my expenses finally and maybe put some of my money to having some rockstar hair but apparently my extra money will be going to drugs. I still have some lunesta, i was trying to save it for work nights but there is the negative side that when you don't sleep, when you take the lunesta again and do sleep you are really tired and your body wants to catch up. Honestly, this shit is better when taken regularly and the FDA is a bunch of fucktards as well as my insurance.
Other than not sleeping, i'm a happy little camper. Boo is home and the time together has been awesome.
So now for the flower of the day for today and yesterday since its the freaking wizard of oz over here and the weather took away the internets earlier today.

7 of 31 May flowers.....
Well thus far I like the more traditional items making the flowers, diecut flowers basically or silk flowers that I had dyed etc.. But I kinda like the cat toy one from day five. The pic isn't so hot but such is life... Boo comes home on friday. Perhaps I should get some extra done cause crafting the day he comes home probably won't fly so well.
