A Mish Mash of Thoughts About (Insert Topic Here)

I got a lot of my mind this morning – medical stuff, people stuff, stuff stuff…you know the drill…we’ll be doing a list post!

  • Someone (or some ones) in my office (*waves*) has been checking out my blog on a regular basis. I’m not sure why this feels like an invasion of privacy – but it does. I mean, I know the blog isn’t private etc etc – but I don’t say anything here that I wouldn’t say to someone in regular conversation…it’s just, this person (or persons) never engages me in regular conversation – which begs the question, if you don’t like me enough to actually have a conversation with me…why do you read here? One of life’s little mysteries, no doubt!
  • I woke up this morning to a newsfeed full of hate on Facebook. I removed 5 people from my ‘friends’ list and plan to remove several more, if they continue this misguided hate-fest. Related or not – I don’t have to put up with *that*
  • My Dr. sent me an email yesterday that was not full of good news. I was really hoping that my numbers would behave, but alas – that has not been the case.
  • I still haven’t heard from the hospital regarding the CAT/Biopsy – so either it’s not as bad as they are telling me (requiring a rush of said appointments) or they are really, really, unorganized over there.
  • I have no comment on the Russia Adoption stuff.
  • I am smack dab in the middle of my “I couldn’t sleep if my life depended on it” portion of my sleep cycle. I hate this.
  • I am still getting the stupid political/religion stuff from my dad – it’s a shame, I’d warned him that I’d just start filtering him to trash if it kept up…I finally took that step this morning.
  • Thankfully, all he ever does is forward this crap – he never actually sends real email.
  • By the way, I’m still looking for the passage in the bible that promotes hate and intolerance – if anyone knows where that is, can you send it to me?
  • I think some people are genuinely surprised to learn that the US has no official language or religion.
  • I have a crick in my neck and it hurts all the way down to my shoulder blades.
  • The kid was picking out his classes for next year and he picked German as an elective. Thankfully, his mentor called me – he’s now signed up for Drivers Ed instead.
  • He wanted to take German so he could understand what the soldiers in Call of Duty were saying.
  • I am going to buy him an English to German Dictionary instead.
  • After that hellish experience last week with that book I was reading, I finally got back to some books written by authors I know and love – so far, I’ve finished two and I’m working on my third – I really do love good books!
  • I really think the Myron Bolitar books that Harlan Coben writes would be a great movie – I find myself actually laughing out loud when I read his books.
  • I also think that the Jack Reacher books, by Lee Child, would make a great movie.
  • I suspect, however, that I’m not the kind of person who is a good judge of this and I’m basing it off of my experience reading their books – when we all know, the books are always way better than the movie (Case in point, “My Sisters Keeper” – ugh)

Anyway – as you can see, lots on my mind today – hopefully, the rest of the day goes a bit better than the morning did.

Books are better than the movie. Yes yes yes.
