I had a dream about you
I was contemplating doing an entry asking whoever read it to just leave a one or two word comment, just to find out how many people read this thing. But then I realized I would probably never update again, because knowing how many people are reading my blog would be kind of disturbing, even though that's kind of the point of "blogging". So I'll remain in my blissful state of ignorance.
I feel like I'm picking things up at work. I mean yeah, I'm picking up on more of the actual work-related information, but I'm getting more than just that. It's a whole way of thinking, of analyzing problems, figuring out when, where, and how the problem started and what you can do to fix it. If the brain is just a more complex computer, shouldn't there be some sort of shortcuts? Seriously, imagine if you could just right click on your brain and select "Manage". Or if you could map your brain to another brain and be able to share the ideas/feelings/memories you want to share. Wouldn't that make things a lot simpler? Yeah.
I have more direction with school stuff, and I'm getting impatient to get started. It's going to take me at least another 3 years, but at least now I know what I'm going to do. Now all that's left is to figure out how to fit work in there. I still don't know where I'll end up with this whole Dexis-taking-over-the-department-I-just-barely-joined thing, but whatever happens I absolutely must start taking classes this summer. I'm not as worried about paying for school anymore, which is really nice, mainly because I started filing my tax returns last night. My W2 from Convergys hasn't come yet, but I started filing for Maryland, and maaaan it's beautiful. With my regular paychecks, plus my tax return, plus whatever the bonus turns out to be, I'll be completely out of debt by the end of this summer. Woot. I'm so sick of having that hanging over me.. It'll be nice to be on top again, and able to save for school and Europe and all that fun stuff the future brings, and stop having money run my life.
Sometimes you can try to overwrite a memory or an emotion with something else. But every now and then, like a badly re-recorded VHS tape, bits and pieces of those memories and emotions surface on the screen again. Like when you get a random phone call from someone you didn't expect to ever call you again. And you find out that person has been asking about you, concerned you're mad at them. And you pass them driving on your way home, see that stupid half-attatched license plate... Lame.
Potluck tomorrow.
I learned another few songs on the guitar tonight. Sweet! How can a day get better, really?
1) Finding out how much money I'm going to get back from the government
2) Baking more delicious edible cookies
3) Feeling more and more comfortable with guitar, something I've been wanting for about 3 years.
4) Going to bed early!
Yes, I'm gonna go work on #4 right now. Goodnight!
