It's an arms race

You know how some people have a comfort blanket or a specific comfort food they turn to in those times where you just need that little something to settle your mind or run away from things? Well, I have a comfort guitar. Playing my guitar for my fish really gives me an odd sense of security. Probably because my fish doesn't have an opinion one way or the other, he's just glad there's someone around. Whenever I play, he swims to the middle of the roots and just sits there and stares at me. Sometimes he'll take a lap or two around the tank, but then settle back into his staring-at-me position.

Money situations are starting to get a lot better. Still way too much to pay for, and a few things I need to get rid of, but overall things are far more manageable now. I tell you what, though.. I seriously can't wait for my tax return. It seriously better be good and fat. Also, I'm crossing my fingers that the "Transition" lasts through the summer. Yay for big fat bonuses. :)

2007 is going to be devoted to paying off my car, paying off my credit cards, and saving up money to go to Europe.


I don't know what to think of things. The one thing I do know is that I'm way more screwed up now, not to mention less optimistic and more cynical about people's intentions and motivations. I'm not sure if I should quit while I'm ahead, or stop being an idiot and calm down and be patient. Then again, patience really didn't work out so well last time.

Can I right click on my brain and select "manage"? Yeah, that'd be great. To see all the components laid out, to be able to Update or uninstall whichever components aren't working properly. Mmmm.... brain defrag..

That is all.
