My Mood - It Too Shall Pass...



“Nothing helps a bad mood like spreading it around.” Bill Watterson


I’m lonely, but am not alone.



I love, but do not like.



I care, but not enough.



My heart aches, but it’s not broken.



I’m loved by many, but appreciated by few.



I long for respect, but it’s not forthcoming.



I’m a body, but not a person.



I speak, but am not heard.



I want peace and solitude for friends, family, but most of all…for myself.



I wish for more, accept less than I should, but am thankful for what I have…most of the time.



Tomorrow is a new day…

Speaking from experience, things will get better. As my daddy always says, "sugar, you could be just about to turn a corner." And then he gives me a big squeeze. It helps and it's true. Hold on... Your corner is coming up!

"I love, but do not like."

That's exactly how I feel today.

Life is full of contradictions. It's funny, I have a draft of a similar style of post in blogger. I guess this time of year brings out emotions...

I Was Feeling Pretty Good Until...

I had my annual “physical” yesterday.   I’ve been attending the same clinic for well over 20 years and am overall happy with the service I receive.  The clinic is part of a state-of-the-art teaching hospital, so with that I typically have relatively quick access to a network of specialists should the need arise.  With that being said, I’m usually treated by residents and have rarely had the same resident in all my 20 years. I felt pretty good going into the appointment and then not so much by the time I left.   Why do you ask? Well, first of all I was treated by Miss Doogie Howser.   I swear she wasn’t even legal drinking age.  That in itself made me feel old, because when I first started going to that clinic – I WAS her age. As she was running down the standard list of questions (i.e. do you smoke, how much do you drink, is there any history of heart problems in your family), she asked me “How is your sex life?  Any concerns?

Snot Bubbles and Wedgies...

Scuba diving can be the most relaxing, peaceful experience of your life – no cell phones, no boss and no noise, except for your own bubbles; however it can be a sport that is not for the faint of heart – rough waters, sharks and crushing depths. If you are self-conscious, shy or weak of stomach, scuba diving may not be for you. Let me explain… Warning: The following may be overly descriptive. Read on at your own risk… The scuba wetsuit. There is nothing glamorous about squeezing a size 8, 10, 12 body into a size 8 neoprene wetsuit, while sweating under the Caribbean sun. It’s sort of like trying to put a sock on while your foot is still wet. Scuba diving professionals may tell you, that neoprene doesn’t shrink, but those people are liars. What they are really trying to do is make you feel good about yourself – selfish bastards. I am living proof that my wetsuit has shrunk on numerous occasions – usually over the winter months. Coincidence? I think not. The wedgie. This un
