I'm Sorry

I'm so sorry that I've been behind in commenting on my favorite blogs - I have been reading, but it seems like I don't have time to respond, too. I hate that.

I've been pre-occupied with many little matters and I just don't function very well when I tend to get caught up in the details of everything else going on in life.

It's like my super-anal control freak function goes into overdrive and I want to micro-manage every facet of my life. Which, in turn, makes me more introspective than usual and usually much busier with my lists and planning and scheming and plotting, etc. It's the way I've been all my life, so I don't see a change any time in the near future.

Having a handle on things (even if it's to the point of distraction for everything else) makes me feel comfortable and in control.

In fact, I'm over here right now compiling my grocery list, while also planning the vacation we want to take in the summer of 2009. How sad is that? Don't answer - it's rhetorical.

Sissy and I are getting ready for an afternoon shopping trip to the Evil Empire (Wal-Mart). Should be fun. Especially since yesterday and today are the first few days of sun we here in WV have seen in weeks. That usually draws out even the most reclusive roach like people to do their shopping, too.

Have I mentioned how much I hate people recently? It's a good thing some pharmaceutical company manufactures Ativan. Yes, mighty good indeed.

Wish me luck as I brave the big outdoors and the WalMartians. I've only had 3 cups of coffee this morning, so I need to visit the potty before we venture out. :-)

  1. Good luck with getting things in order. I know how frustrating it can be to get behind on everything and feel like you'll never get back in the comfort zone again.

  2. I dread that Walmart Rodeo. And don't ya just hate it when you're rushed and it happens to be "family reunion day" in there? Jeesh! I hate Walmart!

    You got me started! LOL!

  3. I hate people every single day. I'm thinking about making some tenets and rituals to go with it and submitting myself of a tax-free religious status.

    I know it won't work, but a girl can dream when all else sucks, can't she?

    Here's to hoping we both see a much sunnier, happier, and comfortable(r) spring.

  5. I remember a Peanuts cartoon from years ago, where Lucy responds to criticism that she hates mankind:

    "I LOVE MANKIND, IT'S THE PEOPLE I CAN'T STAND!"

    Deep inside me is an organized person trying to get out. But I'm an Aquarian and an artist, so I'm doomed. :) I've been so stressed getting out taxes together (including our failed business), and once they were gone, I feel so much better! I even got my office sort of tidied.
