Morning Constitutional

I decided since I was awake to get out and walk (background: The last few years I get INSANE migraines if I do any sort of outdoor activity or am merely out for more than say 10 min during the months of May-Sept'ish). I've been really curious with all the acupuncture, chiropractic, massage, etc that I'm doing this year to see if perhaps I would not get one, but on the other hand TERRIFIED to test the theory because my God they are blinding and excruciating. Well I really felt like I wanted to walk this morning so I decided to tempt fate. We'll see what happens (doesn't necessarily happen the first time).

On the pleasant side, it was cool to have the streets or make that street (West Lynn) to myself. I felt like I was in a dream. The traffic light at 12th/West Lynn flashing and nooooo one in site (until the guy at Galaxy showed up at 6a.m.) I learned that the traffic light goes back 'on' at 6 a.m. It was very calming to just feel so alone in a place that's normally quite busy during the day.

The Time Is Now

That's the big thought going through my semi-aching mind right now (Heineken apparently now gives me a "mild" migraine. Wonderful). Anyway, I got most of my expected deliveries tonight. The BIG one coming on Sunday. Just ready to get my house in order.

I have another appointment with Miracle Worker tomorrow. Really been thinking about what to work on next. I think my career path will come up. I'm very comfortable where I am right now, but that's not like me. I feel I need to strive for something and a lot of people are asking me about life coaching/hypnosis. Do I go back to pursuing that? I don't know. I'm a bit tempted to go back to school. Finally finish the Masters and get going with the Doctorate that now feels like it will never happen. (I am an elderly 35 yr old, right?).

I was meditating last night and I had this thought SO huge in my mind "Stop Living a 1/2 Life". I want to LIVE a full life. I really see me leaving the US once my current obligations (the cats) are no more. I don't think my "purpose" is here. I could be wrong. Wouldn't be the first time. Just don't think that the purpose is here.

(the photo doesn't mean jack. just the first that said "The Time Is Now" that I liked. )

Rap
Goodbye girl better get gone
Skit
Gone
Had a great time
Got beat pretty good
Had a good thing going
Got more than you gave
Goddamn but now I'll give it to you
Girl, you got game

Chorus
But someday babay
You ain't gonna trouble
Poor me
Anymore

that's all i got for tonight. i mean i have a TON for GM if she'd answer the phone and best friend if she reads her pm telling her i have so much to say, but i don't think she reads her pm's often and i know she doesn't read this so i'll just sit here with my head spinning.

The Household Is Almost Complete

I declared my intention to stay in Austin for at least a few years a couple weeks back and to that end I've finally made some purchases that I had been putting off since my move from FL. The big purchase will be here on Sunday, that's the bedroom set that I'm sure many think I'm making too big a deal out of, but you see it's not just a bedroom set to me. It's an intention. I bought a few more things today as I sat at my cockeyed desk. : ) These include a brand new set of 15 towels (that enough?), a coffee grinder/maker (my giving up coffee in May fell by the wayside), and a set of 3 cordless phones (phone can only be thrown at the wall, floor, ceiling so often).

I see the Miracle Worker on Saturday again. I feel so sorted out I don't even know what to discuss with her. I've never felt so at peace for so many days in a row EVER in my life. I'm overwhelmed by the wonder of it all. : )

literally listened to this ALL day

The Day the Earth Stood Still...

No not because of aliens. Because Carla Sidhom finally bought a swimsuit. Yeah. Do I need to call 9-1-1 for you? I almost did for myself. I hope the thing fits.

This is an AWESOME one that I really liked, but it's a few sizes away. I may get it anyway. The one I got today, should fit. I may lay out in the back yard to get a tan before I let the world see me. We shall see. I tried to upload a photo of it, but it was that zoom in feature on ebay and I can't make that work for this. The one I got is black with brown almost suede looking material criss-crossing the bodice. Looks cute. I said "It looks like a Texas swimsuit" whatever that means.

Attached is the photo of the one I want. $79 is a bit steep though for something that I don't know if it will look good on me or not. Texas suit was only $39 w shipping and originally $116 so I felt like I got a good deal.
