I Don't Want to Talk About It, BUT If You Want to Know....


I’m feeling out of sorts today.  I’m not quite to the point of cranky (yet), but I’m not feeling overjoyed to be at work.   I know that it being Monday is the probable excuse; however I’m not 100% convinced that the only issue.

I’m starting to have a bit of anxiety that it’s now August and the mornings aren’t quiet as bright as they were a couple of weeks ago.  It’s also starting to get dark sooner in the evening, my perennial garden has been in full bloom and things are starting to die off.  My tomatoes are ready to be picked.  I’m sad.  Why?  Well it means that fall is just around the corner.  Don’t get me wrong, I love the autumn season.  I just hate what comes after it.  Winter…she’s just a mean, hurtful bitch.
It's official - NOW, I'm cranky... thanks Mother Nature....

You are the 2nd person of the northern persuasion to mention the coming winter already. We peaked our highs last week and possibly this week and are looking forward to the cooling off Autumn and Winter bring. It's usually short sleeves thru mid December. I do hate the shorter days tho.

Enjoy the heat while you got it.

I'm kinda looking forward to the cooler weather of fall-and winter does not bother me that much--I love a good snowstorm as long as I can stay home and enjoy it from my couch. I'm not a big fan of spring--mother nature forget's her medicatiuon adn it entirely too mood swingy for me.

We don't have much of seasonal change. Pretty much we go from hot as hell to brown and cold. :(

I would have agreed with you-given that Boston is cold as all get out in the wintertime and I am limited to my walking shoes.

BUT-I am moving to Texas in December. Which means I pretty much miss winter entirely.

Yep, totally bragging.

I was thinking the exact same thing. It doesn't help that today is foggy and gloomy out. How is it the second week of August already? ~ sigh ~

I'm the opposite of you. I love winter when the days are shorter and it's dark more than it is light. I can't stand it that it stays light until 10 here in MN in the summer. I don't mind the cold so much either but can't stand the heat and humidity.

Enjoy the rest of the summer though, it's not over yet!

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
