for all that i have not, for all that i have
i haven't got any fantastically witty pictures for you today. i haven't even got any plain old pictures today. just words. my constant companions. and here's the gist of them. i don't quite know if i'm in a bad mood. i think i am... i keep having thoughts about how taylor swift winning album of the year seems like a joke since she can't sing live for the life of her. or about how much some of my friends suck. see? you can clearly see why i think i'm in a bad mood... as i got ready for work this morning, i knew i had to accomplish two things of utmost importance. clean the litter box, for one. and take some chicken out of the freezer to commence defrosting because darn it all if a good home-cooked meal doesn't sound freakin delicious. and then i cleaned up the bathroom counter. wiped it all down. and it wasn't even on my two-item-list. maybe it's magic? for some reason, cleaning in the morning is so much easier than in the evening. (who am i?!) i even wished for some extra time to clean up the garage. (did you hear that thud? it was benny falling onto the floor. because i never. never. want to clean the garage. even when he begs. and promises me a romantic date. i always make a face. a face of evil, really.) but today, cleaning the garage would feel sooo good. god it's a mess in there. and i only went in there to get said frozen chicken. do you think it's awesome that we have two fridges? i do. well, it kind of makes me feel like a grandma...don't grandma's always have two fridges? so anyway, i go out there to get the chicken and...i see our christmas tree stand...atop boxes of decorations...atop... and so, i know it's time. time for a serious effort. but i am afraid it might also be the kind of day where i have he-man (she-ra?) amounts of energy until just about 4:30p. and then i'm exhausted. and then i just curl up on the couch and zone out. so, today, i guess i am praying for energy. the lasting kind. and patience. and the ability to hold my tongue. because with hateful thoughts about taylor swift, who knows what else i'm capable of today...

First let me say that I saw TS in concert...a concert I thought was going to be totally lame...because I too have heard her sing on these award shows and thought..."it's a good thing she can write, because she sure ain't a hot singer!"
but then i saw her in concert and she sounded really effin good! so, not sure what's behind the transformation, but, in case you were wondering how she sells out her live shows...well, she sounds good at THEM. :)
as far as bad moods go....bad moods and depression seem to do one of two things to a person... #1-you don't want to do anything....you mope...or #2-you suddenly have this angry energy you HAVE to release onto something. My most recent depression has really helped me clear out my "Heather-do" list!
angry women have the cleanest houses! ;) you can quote me on that. :*

hl - this is good to know! as i was typing about ts i was considering that i'd never personally seen her live and what kind of an expert does that make me and etc. so i am a bit relieved to know she only sounds bad on tv. but isn't that weird?? and also, angry energy is probably the only reason i ever get the big stuff done...like clean out my closets or garden :) perhaps we should have plaques made up adorned with your quote! i'd proudly display it! :)
xo, em
Em, Oh, and for the record, no judgment outta me, you can like TS or think she blows, I wasn't defending her btw...I just found it as odd as you, that on television, it's like dogs barking, but in concert, she sounded perfect.
quite the little mystery, wouldn't you say?
If we make plaques, and I become a millionaire, I'll hook you up! ;) I spoil my pretties rotten!
