There are some things in life that will always remain a mystery to me and I will make no attempts to try to understand them. Ignorance is bliss? I am not sure. My list is much more extensive than this but these are the main mysteries that elude me. 1. Cholesterol -Like David Sedaris in "When You Are Engulfed in Flames," once someone starts to discuss cholesterol I check out. My mind starts to wander and the path of least resistance takes over. I think it may have something to do with salt intake and may affect your heart but that is all gathered information from oatmeal commercials. If someone asks me what my level is I will respond with a blank stare. 2. The Stock Market and anything associated with the stock market, i.e. Nasdaq, Dow Jones, Industrial Average, and who is kidding who, decimal numbers in general.- I would say some of the few bits I do understand about the stock market though I am having troubles coming up with anything. ( I love the movie Trading Places, exce...

When arriving back home to Kansas, the air was so humid it was like drinking a cup of water with every breath. Sheesh. Evidently it has rained 6 inches in the last week.

(I saw the actor from Princess Diaries which is one step closer to knowing Robert Schwartzman which is a step closer to Jason Schwartzman . Then we can get married and Sophia Coppola will be my cousin. Perfect. Oh and I saw Tanisha Harper, my second favorite mode...

So much to share... but where to begin? This is where mind melding would really come in handy. I am not really feeling deep or witty at the time. No thoughts on anything, no funny anecdotes, nothing thought provoking (as if I normally have any of that). So I feel like this is more of a current event update or something. As of late I have felt like I have had no time to really rest or sleep. If I do have time to myself I feel I must fill it with all the many responsibilities and things that lie ahead. I am a "work before play" type of person, so it is sort of impossible for me to feel completely relaxed until I get everything possible accomplished. If a teacher plans a test the day you get back from a break, for me there will be no break. Like a proverbial black cloud following me around until it is finished. So that being said, I have not put a lot of time into my blog lately and even feel quasi-anxious right now, knowing I have work to be done. Though so I do not get too ...
