Personality Disorder

During this past year my mother has mentioned to my brother that I have a personality disorder. It was hurtful especially when it seems that she is the one with personality problems. Today, however, I realized that perhaps I do have a disorder. How else could I explain my actions today? First, I filled up my car today when gas costs more than it has in two weeks, and the weather is as frigid as it has been in years. Next, I decided to go purchase the book, The Tenth Circle, I've been listening to on tape since it was too cold to walk around the lake. What made my think it wasn't too cold to be walking around Uptown? Afterall once I was out in the cold, it seemed silly not to stop at other locations.

As I was walking home wondering if my face had turned to ice and was going to crash on the sidewalk, I witnessed someone jogging on the Greenway. I guess there is always someone crazier than me. Besides, I have been anticipating the end of the book for over a week, so I can't wait to finish reading the book. Even though 30 degrees below zero windchill is frosty, it's better than running out of gas in the same weather conditions.

Sankalpa Day 5

Today I went back to the interweb to find out what I could post about that would relate to sankalpa . "...Sankalpa has the potential to release tremendous power by clearly defining and focusing on a chosen goal." My chosen goal since May has truly been on being physically active. Since it's cold and miserable out, I've been being active inside instead of outside. December 6th (or something like that) was the last time I ventured outside for physical activity. I, however, have still been going to they gym and focusing on being physically fit (or at least burning enough calories to eat more food). Yesterday I received an early morning text from a friend in God's Country . President Obama was talking about "The President's Challenge" . Today (I tried yesterday and decided to put it off until today... forget out it... let it happen... put it aside... clear my mind of it... all probably sankalpa) I formed a group. The...

What if... The Delivery

Molly was excited to get a package from her friend who lives in Alaska. When she opened the box, she was confused. Although the shirt was actually soft and of good quality, she was upset by the guns in the flag. When she googled Holster's, it was exactly what she thought... pro-gun. She didn't know how to handle the situation, so she sent a picture stating she was confused. Her friend had obviously lost her mind. During the conversation, she kept proclaiming that she hadn't sent a t-shirt. When Molly explained it was her writing on the box, things became weird. The friend was in a state of denial. Molly even sent a text with a picture of the writing on the box. Molly's friend was adamant that she sent homemade condiments. She wouldn't give up on her story even though it was clear Molly is in possession of an NRA type t-shirt. After much deliberation, the two friends realized what had happened. The original box, wit...

Missing You

Two Sundays ago I missed church because I was out of town. Last Sunday I missed church because I could not get to church due to the marathon (blocking my path... not my running). Dad and I tried to leave early, but we did not leave early enough. I joked with Dad about the fact that they would miss me at church. When I checked my e-mail this evening, I actually had an e-mail from my pastor saying I was missed. It was a short e-mail, but it was sweet and definitely a positive part of my day.
