I have been sleeping irregular hours the last few days. It does not help that I ate a bowl of ice cream a few hours before bed time but it was on sale and I am a fatty. I was laying in bed thinking about this woman who I have an infatuation with. Of course she does not know but this is life, choices that end up as missed opportunities. I remember getting some sound advice from of all people my dentist. She said that the only thing you have to work on in a relationship is being able to go to sleep with the person your with. It does not matter if you are angry, mad, and frustrated with the person as long as your willing to let these feelings pass you are going to be alright. I have neither woman nor going to sleep on time as an option but I think those sound words had an affect on me this afternoon as I lay in bed.
I want to get something's done today. Clean my work room and move the day bed into it. I wish I had bought a cheap book case but I will leave the heaps of mass in my living room, while I clean. I have come to the conclusion that I should start letting things go. I still have books from which I used during my freshman year. I will not be able to return them nor is it likely that I will ever use them again. I am having those why did I want to keep these things moments? Maybe if I graduate I will release the books from my ownership. It probably is one of those motivational things on my part, in that I still have to finish what I started. To bad I do not have any room in my house for all these books.
The
Olympics are going on for the next few weeks. They are being held in China and it gives me a great sense of pride that they are being held in the Motherland. I have no affiliation with the sports teams but seeing as how my grandparents and parents lived there I am feelings of Chinese pride. I am also feeling patriotic watching the good old U.S.A. perform too. I am in a cannot lose situation, seeing as how it is fantastic if some American wins a gold medal or seeing a Chinese citizen win a medal as well. I should stop watching the
Olympics because they are being aired during the early mornings; it is definitely affecting my sleep.
