Blog Post from the Edge

“You can do anything — but not everything.” – David Allen

Work is hell.  I’m on the verge of a major panic attack.  Sure, I can do anything but not everything; however,  I feel like I am trying to do everything but can’t do anything.  Wait.  Does that make any sense?  Confused, yet?  Yeah, me too.

Sigh.

I am trying to channel my inner psycho hose beast, but she isn’t even feeling very strong right now.

Hate Me.

29 Mar

It had to be done.  The stress was making me a crazy woman.  Shut it.  I know that you know I have already embraced the psycho hose beast.  I marked all of your blogs as read in my lover.   I know I have not been around, and I am sure that is why you have not been around my blog much either (along with the fact that I completely suck lately).  I have no excuses except I am in a funky cold medina, and I hope that I snap out of it STAT!  Today starts a new week and tomorrow is Monday… another chance to get it right.  Hope is the thing with feathers …

At least I will be rockin’ a short and sassified new ‘do when I head to the House of Horrors tomorrow.

Bromance And Brulee

28 Mar

Boog and I had a couples date tonight with our lifer friends, Perpstu and DigitalRob.  Nothing beats an evening of bromance followed by mojitos and sushi with a dessert and coffee kicker.

You must go see I Love You, Man, if only for the Rush-is-the-greatest-band-ever scenes.

Rush guitarist Alex Lifeson says this is the ultimate Rush song.  It is also Boog’s favorite.  And, yes, he is also a geekdorknerd male without many male friends and a fierce appreciation for all things Rush.

Insert air guitar solo here, and get yourself a man date.

Bollywood Makes a Difference
