February is Messing With My Mind...

Normally, I take immense pleasure with turning the pages on the calendar.  There is something exciting about turning the page to a new month.  I’m not sure whether it’s the excitement of a new photo, a clean slate or new hopes for what the upcoming month may bring.  This time of year brings me even more pleasure because with each nasty month behind me, I’m that much closer to the seasons I love – Spring, Summer and Fall.

Today, I’m fighting the urge not to just jump ahead and flip the page to March.  Twice I’ve started to make the move and twice I’ve stopped myself.   Somehow I just can’t justify the switch because by doing so I feel like I’m selling February short of its time to shine.  It’s a short month to begin with and now I’m just wishing it away.   I’m actually feeling guilty!  I can’t believe the inner turmoil I’ve caused myself.   

Stupid short month…enjoy it while you can because soon, I’m turning you over…

I'm ready for March, but only if it's better than February. If March turns out to be just as bad as this month has been I'm going to bed and hiding under the covers. Permanently.

I totally flipped my calendar when I was cleaning this evening.

So miss, do you miss your easy job? I have an interview for another job this week and I find myself afraid to leave the comfort of my low stress job for one that actually challenges me.

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
