Watching SATC last night was like catching up with old friends. I loved them and followed their stories, hanging on every word Sunday nights weekly for six years. We were friends from the beginning, and I have missed them terribly. Last night I got to spend just over 2 glorious hours with them again, and I loved every single moment. When it was over, I wanted more. I don’t want to reveal any of the movie plot for those friends who haven’t seen it yet, but I will say that it is fabulous. The clothes are amazing, the women have…

Yay! Today’s the day for the movie! Woohoo!! I can’t be totally excited about it yet this morning though, because I have to head to the doctor in about 15 minutes. I detest going to get a pap smear done. I know it’s just one of those things that you have to do as a woman to be safe with your health, but it’s uncomfortable and embarrassing and completely nerve-wracking. My stomach is doing flips. I am going in for a yearly physical with a totally new doctor I’ve never met before, and I’m nervous. Hopefully some good will come…

I can’t believe that it’s almost here. I have been waiting for this movie since the first whisper that it might happen, and now I am less than 48 hours away from seeing it. For some reason, they opened the movie all over the world before releasing it in the USA last, but they claimed they were “building” up to the BIG premiere in New York City. I can’t wait to look online later and see the pictures from the amazing red carpet premiere last night. I so wish that I could have been there, but plane tickets to New…

How sad when a long weekend with someone you love is over. G took Thursday and Friday off work so combined with Memorial Day off, we had five straight days together. Doesn’t it always seem after a vacation that you didn’t make the most of it? That it went by too fast? It always goes by too fast. I love spending time with G, and I hope and pray that someday soon we can figure out a great way to make money spending time together so we can just do that all the time. The sun, the pool opening, the…

This is the kind of news that can bring me to tears. I remember hearing news in the 90’s about Ethiopia’s Hunger crisis and seeing pictures on TV of babies with swollen bellies and such, but I thought that after aid and help, it had gotten a lot better there. Well, apparently it is bad again. Drought is something we joke about a bit here in our house, because the news proclaims a terrible drought in NC while it is raining almost two or three times a week. I can see that it’s no joke and no laughing matter in…

Sometimes I feel as if there are several me’s alive inside of this one body, and I can’t seem to figure out which one is real enough to focus on. There is one me that constantly puts me down. Sort of an outside looking in me that sees nothing but the flaws and the bad things. She is quick to remind me of any negatives about myself the second they rear their ugly heads, and never ceases to let me forget that I am not at all what I had meant to be. There is another me that is just…
