Wednesday, August 31st, 2005

…they’re just so entertaining. I can’t comment on Candyce’s blog, because it isn’t a blog, it’s a Xanga. So I have to give her “e-props,” as they call it, or comments by posting here, on my own site. So, check this out. It’s from her most recent post and I find it entertaining. Hence, why […]

Job Hunt Blues II

Tuesday, August 30th, 2005

The troublesome thing about applying for job after job and interviewing for job after job and never getting hired is that you begin to feel that no one wants you. And after a little while of that you begin to wonder why, if God is really in charge and really made you precisely the way […]

The Tangled Web of Textiles

Tuesday, August 30th, 2005

-In January, that agreement went into affect. China, who […]

Night Driving

Tuesday, August 30th, 2005

I love highways at night. They make me think of vacations when I was a little girl. I like the dark sky and the and the bright car and street lights. I like the green signs and following a map. I like the knowlege that most of the people in the houses I pass are […]

Mantra

Monday, August 29th, 2005

Breathe,
just breathe.
Who would want
to live
“successfully�
when others
define success?
Failure
is not
such a big
defeat
after all.
Real life
is in
the growing.
You’ll be fine–
just breathe.

Here is a friend of mine, who I am just getting to know. She has a sweet and beautiful soul. It is deep purple and has golden vines curling out from the center in all directions, and it makes a beautiful, earthy song like guitar music– a song as warm and comfortable as your favorite […]

New Nomenclature

Monday, August 29th, 2005

My friend Eric is a complete genius and he doesn’t even know it. From his blog:
I think that single people should quit referring to ourselves as “single”, and instead our status should be “you know you want me!” Just imagine it:
Random person: So, are you seeing anyone?
You: No, you know you want me.
Who’s in?

My resume is a miserable series of unimpressive un-accomplishments.

Break-Through

Friday, August 26th, 2005

I think I’ve had a break through.
I get pissed off at guys a lot. Usually for the wrong reasons. And usually I let them know. So I’ve been trying really hard lately to be nicer and to treat guys with more respect. And I think its sort of been working…I mean at least I’ve […]

Thursday, August 25th, 2005

A few months ago i was hanging out with the woman who is the childrens’ pastor at the church I go to right now. She is a friend of mine, and I babsit her kids a lot so we wind up talking about mundane, beautiful things like grocery shopping and how to take care of […]
