Adventures in super markets and baking on crutches
Discovery Channel should do a series on relationships and the chemicals behind love and breaking up and why we feel the way we do. I even have a name for it!
The Science of Relationships: From Inception to Destruction.
Discovery, if your reading this, call me! (I know they stalk my blog)
Friday consisted of budgeting my money for the month, which could be a shocker for some of you who know me personally. Then I went to the grocery store with my sister. Now I've always been the type to look at those motorized shopping carts for people who need assistance and think, Oh boy does that look fun...I want to ride it! But today was the first day I *had* to actually use one because crutches were not going to cut it. I felt very self conscious and out of place. It made me think of how I would feel if I lost all leg mobility on a permanent level, how depressing that would be. The best part of the whole thing was I beeped when I backed up!
And I was praying the entire time I was in the store I wouldn't run over toes, ram a child or knock over one of those impossibly huge pyramids of cereal that always seem to get destroyed in TV shows and movies.
I baked chocolate cupcakes with Natalie/Ninjalie. We actually met on LJ and today was the first time meeting her IRL. I think one of us friended the other a few months ago and about a week and half ago she AIMed me out of the blue, which turned out to be awesome. we chatted a few times on aim sharing things about each other and decided we should defiantly be friends. She helped me with the cupcakes (I think most credit goes to her) and we got to know each while watching 'Knocked Up' here at "my" place. Its nice making new friends!
When she left though I was just feeling low because of all my normal things so I did the usual lame crying deal and stared at the tv for about 30 minutes. Decided this was stupid and went to go read a book and then sleep for a few hours.
These small waves of depression are annoying, but letting myself feel these things without running away or trying to numb my pain will help me get over this faster than anything else I can think of.
Tomorrow/later today I sew. I made a really cute two headed monster pattern so I need fur and felt and eyes. The cupcakes and doll are for Nicks birthday.
I need to get a calender so I can write all my friends birthdays on it so I can remember to at least send cards out. I would love to be the friend that always remembers people bdays
