I’m a flake sometimes. :(

Wednesday, October 26th, 2005

I thought today was one of my best friend’s birthday. But when I checked my calendar it was actually Monday. I know my birthday isn’t important to me anymore, but I try to make a big deal for my friends. And even though I got him gifts in game for his birthday, I still meant to at least call and sing happy birthday on the day of. I know it’s no use crying over spilled milk, but I hope I didn’t hurt his feelings too much. :(

The new schedule seems to really be working for me, and I’ve started my new routine of doing ddr and showering and then playing WoW till bedtime.

Not late!

So with my trouble getting in on time I finally gave up on getting in at 8 and asked my boss if we could try shifting my schedule to 9-6. He agreed and the rest of this week is a trial run. And so far so good! I was actually on time today! Yay!

Moody

Note to self: Even antidepressants can’t defeat pms moodiness if I don’t take my vitamins.

Luckily that’s an easy habit to get back into. And now that I’m over that flu, time to work on getting back in the habit of doing 15-20 minutes of DDR when I get home.

And I’ve decided to talk to my boss today about seeing if shifting my schedule to 9-6 helps me get to work on time. I’m tired of being late all the time, but I do like being more awake and productive like I’ve been.

Doing better

Cough almost all gone, just trying to get my sleep schedule back in order now.

*cough*

Home sick. Ugh. Haven’t been this sick in years I think.

Seeing Tora was awesome. MM’s party Saturday also awesome. Thankfully the sick didn’t really kick into gear until Monday.

Romance!

From: http://www.marsvenus.com/couples/Article.php?id=207

Romance is doing something for your partner that makes them feel special without them having to ask for it.

The first and most important rule of romance: all you have to do is try. Romance is not about “getting it right.” It’s about making an effort. The old saying “It’s the thought that counts” couldn’t be more true when it comes to romance.

When it comes to romance it’s the effort that counts. Not the dollar signs or the number of gifts. So if we could give one piece of advice to men, stop worrying about being perfect and remember it’s the act that counts.

Show your partner that you are paying attention to their needs and listening when they talk about what is important. Romance is truly created when two people are attentive enough to listen and give, without any prompt. And there are countless things you can do.

Begin by taking the time to think about your partner. What makes them smile? And start there. You can’t do it wrong. The simple effort of trying to make your partner feel appreciated and loved by you is enough motivation to get you pointed in the right direction.

Backlog!

Wow, I haven’t been keeping up… so from the 16th till the 4th…

Sept. 16 More anime with MM, NausicaƤ of the Valley of the Winds is awesome! I think that and Laputa: Castle in the Sky are my two favorite Miyazaki movies. I’m not a huge Disney fan, but I have to be happy that they’re bringing over so many of Miyazaki’s movies.

Sept. 17 I went to an all women cuddle party and it was wonderful!!

Sept. 18 I have no idea… I assume I played WoW and did chores since I had no specific plans.

Sept. 19 – Sept. 22 Just a normal work week, but my last week of carpooling. :(

Sept. 23 More anime with MM and I think the last new Battlestar Galactica till January… *cry* The last new Star Gate: Atlantis was a cliff hanger too! *pout*

Sept. 24 Helped the Princess and JP move to Davis and then had yummy pizza at Cafe Italia. My klutz moment… I put some vases the Princess gave me on top of my car so I could open the door. I open the door and BAM! two of them fall and shatter. Luckily the nicer ones were the ones left. Obviously I was not meant to have those other two. I felt pretty silly though. I blamed it on the spirit of PH trying to keep me from aquiring more clutter.

Sept. 25 Sundays seem to be chore/WoW days. I think I watched Tomb Raider 2 while doing the fishing contest in WoW (I didn’t win but I did get a rare fish) and then went to the guild meeting. Tomb Raider was ok, but not good enough to really grab my attention fully enough to stop fishing.

Sept. 26 – Sept. 29 My first week of carpooling…. late every single day, but I actually was much more productive coming in later in the day.

Sept. 30 Saw Serenity with MM & JP & Princess, it was great!
Oct. 1 Went and saw JL perform in an opera about beauty and the beast. It was actually pretty neat and he was great. The circus performers/fairies we my favorite though. Some of their acrobatics and contortions were pretty impressive. We went out for drinks to just hang out afterwards and I met JL’s girlfriend’s friend who seemed really nice, we even swapped backrubs which I always love.

Oct. 2 More WoW and chores!

Oct. 3 Got KM to come over to trade backrubs. We couldn’t get his movie to play in my dvd player though so we watched Patriot Games which I’d never seen. I thought it was a good movie.

Oct. 4 Tonight I’m going to finally get DDR set up and do at least five minutes. I want to start doing that nightly and work up to 20-30 minutes for exercise.
