WAKING THOUGHTS

I'm 50. I really do like the sound of that.

Isn't it funny how easily that thing you simply couldn't part with before, goes into the give away bag today?

Studio sessions made me reevaluate and let go of my intense hatred for mathematics.

I have a feeling the infamous "they" and the threatening "we" are often the same lone individual.

Some songs are infused with enthusiasm.

I hate when someone is sad. I don't even have to know them. There has to be a way to help...There is.

Do not respond to familiar spirits. They already think they're close. Don't reply and feed already obsessive behavior.

The popcorn-themed surprise party is still making me smile. I have more popcorn than I know what to do with. I never, ever thought I would say that. If I didn't think it would be ungrateful, I would bemoan the fact that none of it is from Garrett's in Chicago. I have to say, though, the Detroit Popcorn is awfully, awfully good. I must pace myself lest I become known for being jolly.

I listened. "I really want you to participate, but I have to run it by someone else first". I really should have suggested that they refrain from acting on projects about which they don't have the final say, but I didn't. I suppose it's okay to want to appear important, as long as you don't involve others in the fantasy. What makes people think you're going to abide them jerking you around, or monopolizing your time? What is it about their inactivity that people want you to be appreciative about? Sometimes people with authority to DO a thing, cause great embarrassment to the person responsible FOR a thing. Be glad when you don't waste any effort on someone's whim. You can't do a favor unless the resources you use are yours.
