Really random wandering thoughts, dreams, food, hand update and sports! Why it's better than your local news update!

I did it! I posted everyday for the month of November and had a blast doing it. I admit, I like blogging. It's cheaper than therapy and keeps me in contact with people. Let's see if I can keep up this posting everyday thing, shall we?

In other news, I got my stitches out on Monday... I meant to post about it sooner, but it's been a busy week. I've been catching up on all kinds of things, keeping up with school work, getting holiday shopping done and all the random shit life throws at you when you aren't looking.

My hand appears to be healing just fine... it's only a little sore and I have to stretch it ALOT to regain the movement I once had. The stretching and squeezing is surprisingly tiring... you would think that I am just sitting there squeezing a ball repeatedly but then after 10 minutes or so I feel pooped. Weird, eh? Of course that could also be hormonal tiredness, which happens to us gals, but that's another story.

Food Porn alert: I have to tell y'all this... last night for dinner, at Ron's prompting, we made homemade pizza with grilled chicken and BBQ sauce, cheese, peppers and onions and it was THE BEST. YUM!!!!

Now at the risk of this blog becoming an online dream diary I had a slightly less weird one this morning. I was in my elementary school gym class with high school friends playing matball (kickball with bigger bases) and we were all wearing leather jackets. I wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that I have been thinking about kickball these days (long story) and wearing my leather jacket lately because it fits me again (YAY!!!) and I bought it when I was in high school? I bet it does.

I also dreamt, ALL NIGHT LONG, that our phone was ringing. Everytime I would dream it I woke up and thought about getting out of bed to answer it. This would happen at least once an hour. ALL NIGHT LONG. I'm tired and a tad cranky today because of this.

So why have I been thinking about kickball lately? Well, I am trying to think of fun ways to incorporate some exersize* into my life and I though, maybe if i did something I enjoyed as a kid it would help my lose a few pounds. I thought about Roller Derby... THESE fine ladies recently had tryouts, but I had surgery and I don't have skates. I used to LOVE roller skating though and I used to be VERY good at it if I do say so myself.

Then I thought KICKBALL! Hell, I was once dropped on my head during a kickball game and had to have 8 or 9 stitches in my head. I still have a flat spot there... I'll tell that story another day. And then someone gave Ron info about THIS. I'm not sure I'd be into something so organized... that smacks of - gulp - commitment. I was thinking something fun starting this spring with friends at a local park when the weather is nice.

I am feeling chatty today... maybe it's the caffeine finally starting to kick in. I really ought to shower now and get my ass out the door. I'll stop now.

* Exersize is one of those annoying words that NEVER looks like it is spelled right and the more you look at it the more wrong it feels.
