The song Manic Monday by the Bangles is much more enjoyable when listening to it on a Friday.

…I indulge in peanut butter cups and walnuts. Yes, the man is allergic to nuts. And beans! But it’s okay because turkey chili is almost as good as the stuff with beans. I’ll give up the nuts to see him everyday though.

Spring is definitely on it’s way. I can feel it and smell it and almost taste it. It was chilly this morning but it felt as if there were this underlying warmth coming from the incoming spring.

I am bored. I hate this feeling of boredom that permeates everything. Maybe if I could create something good I wouldn’t feel as bored, but I just feel blocked and bored. I have tons of work to do in terms of work work (whole other story contributing to my lack of enjoyment and thus this overwhelming boredom that is permeating my being at the moment) and some of it is actually somewhat creative but I am still bored.

I need a change. Soy aburrido. (thanks, Ker)

Dave and I are going on a whirlwind museum/gallery tour on Saturday. You would think that we live far outside of the city based on the way we are cramming it all in (in actuality it’s about a 15 minute drive). We are checking out the Darwin exhibit at the Museum of Natural History (looks awesome and I’m hoping to check out the Butterfly Conservatory as well if we have time), Munch exhibit at MoMA (can’t wait to see his stuff!!!), and Jeff Soto exhibit (which also looks really awesome!).

Now back to being stuck on yesterday’s and today’s Circadian Creations….Hmmm. Subjugation….Pleasure….

Time is going by so quickly. It’s like some weird, rapid time warp, but the stuff isn’t happening. I mean, the real stuff, the important stuff. I feel like it’s all just slipping out of my reach, through my fingertips. I shouldn’t hold on anyway, but I’m trying to reach and it never seems to come close enough. Quite frustrating to say the least. I suppose I need to find a new way to look at the situation(s).

So, can the politicians of this country destroy our freedoms and dig us deeper into the hole than they already have? Everytime we think it’s not possible, they do. Cheney and his rant about Iran. Why can’t we mind our own business? Why? Why are we going to “impose meaningful consequences” on Iran? Why can we have tons of nuclear weaponS but feel the need to jump into battle with any country who we don’t think should have them? By “we” I definitely don’t mean all of us, just “we” as the unfortunate collective of this nation of people. The “we” that we have sadly become. Bright outlook is that it looks like someone may actually really honestly try to impeach the idiot in office. Would be so lovely. Yes, sure, his cronies are all in place, but wouldn’t it still by so satisfying?

I’m done with that rant. I don’t even know enough about politics to get into the areas that I would like to get into, but it’s just upsetting and annoying and angering what our so-called “elected” politicians continue to get us into.

Well, took a break and went to lunch. It is gorgeous outside today. I can feel spring creeping in, luckily not too slowly. The sun made the car warm and cozy on the inside and I could almost convince myself that it was May once I sat behind the wheel. I can’t wait for spring to come in, full bloom. That means that summer is on the way! What an eventful summer it will be. I can’t wait for all of the events and changes and adventures that are coming up. Weddings, road trips, festivals, reunions, moves, camping, and just exploring. Ahhhhh. Something great to look forward to.
