pure hell lately. The period is
slowed way down, and the universe seems to be coming into focus more and more by the minute. Once again, Brian accused me of saying I was on the rag last night to get out of sex. I know he’s mostly joking.
He’s like; you’ve been on it all week! I said, clearly you don’t understand my periods after all this time. He then claimed to know everything about them, since he’s had to live with them for 20 years. I laughed so hard, I nearly had tears. Yeah, RIGHT….a man understanding the hormonal process of a woman. That’s big humor right there. I told him that I felt for him, for having to be put out by my period :)
Tonight is going to be really busy, as on top of the regular stuff for the boys, I have school meetings for both of the boys. This is the first time I’ve had to go to one for “issues or concerns.” Normally, I just have the end of semester meetings. I’m sure Cal’s meeting will revolve around “technology.” He’s having a tough time mastering the keyboard, which is no surprise. I know that one’s going to take time for him. Ryne’s will be centered around Art class. As of early last week, he had an F. He’s had a really tough time in this class. He’s never struggled like this before in a class. He went in early and stayed late, though to finish up a project that is most of his grade. He gets full on anxiety over this class. The meeting will be interesting. Of course, Ryne is to blame for his grade. As I tell him, not everyone is failing. But this class does seem to be a little f’d up…. We just got Ryne’s score for the Illinois standings, and he scored above the school average and well above the state average in everything. He’s a pretty smart kid. We are really hoping he does better in school/job choices than Brian or I. Anyway, the meeting will be interesting. Brian won’t be home
in time for Cal’s, but he should be for Ryne’s meeting. Brian is really upset with the teacher, but I hope he handles himself well :)
Ah, I Don’t Want To Know by Fleetwood Mac is on. Brings me right to my FM fantasy. Sometimes it’s good to live in a fantasy world. Ooh, now Tiny Dancer. It’s not one of my favorite Elton John songs, but how I do love him. If he’s playing Vegas next time I’m there, there’s no way I’m missing him. Freaking expensive, though. I need to keep (or start :) saving my pennies now.
I’m kinda thinking Vegas for March Madness next year. The thought of sitting there, drinking beer all day, while watching college basketball is very enticing to me. I’d love for Brian and I to do it, but he’ll be in Vegas around that time
for Josh’s 21stbirthday (Booge’s son, Brian’s best friend). Anyway, it’s the next maybe vaca I have in mind. That is, of course, unless Brian and I can get away together. I would so love that. We need it, but we don’t have anywhere for the boys to go. Sure wish we lived closer to the West Coast, that’s fo sho.
Well, today is all about celebrating the little things. It’s a day that I’m not
beating myself up. It’s a day that I feel good about recent decisions I’ve made. It’s a day that I’m feeling comfortable
in my own skin. Can’t ask for too
much more than that. Hope you’re
all having a great day.
Ah, I heard this song yesterday. How can you not love the Beatles? And how is it possible for John to not
be your favorite one?
What would you think if I sang out of tune
Would you stand up and
walk out on me?
Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song
And I'll try
not to sing out of key
Oh I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm I
get high with a little help from my friends
Mm going to try with a little
help from my friends
What do I do when my love is away?
(Does it worry
you to be alone?)
How do I feel by the end of the day?
(Are you sad
because you're on your own?)
No I get by with a little help from my
friends
Mm I get high with a little help from my friends
Mm going to try
with a little help from my friends
(Do you need anybody?)
I need
somebody to love
(Could it be anybody?)
I want somebody to love
(Would you believe in a love at first sight?)
Yes I'm certain that it happens
all the time
(What do you see when you turn out the light?)
I can't tell
you, but I know it's mine
Oh I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm I get high with a little help from my friends
Oh I'm going to try with a
little help from my friends
(Do you need anybody?)
I just need
somebody to love
(Could it be anybody?)
I want somebody to love
Oh
I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm going to try with a little
help from my friends
Oh I get high with a little help from my friends
Yes
I get by with a little help from my friends
With a little help from my
friends
