Tremors

All these mini earthquakes used to be fun, but now they are starting to get annoying.
There are at least three a day, seriously.
Cut it out.

Discovery!

I was looking over the folder from my beloved old computer (oh desktops, how I miss thee), when I came upon a file where I had written a bunch of user names and passwords for various accounts. Among them was the user name and password for my old blog, circa 2004!

It's very exciting stuff and I can now confirm that it really was on this very site--except back then it was called eblogger and my URL was blogspot. It was called Senseless Babbling and that's exactly what it was--the slightly awkward journal of an eighth-grader. Wow! It's sort of like opening a time capsule. =)

This baby is now linked to my current account--on private though, of course.

Sometimes

Sometimes I get this nagging thought that asks me, "What are you doing with your with your life? Where do you think you're going to end up like this? Why aren't you working on something to improve your life right now?

It's a horrible feeling.

Today is my birthday

It started off extremely boring and subdued, but got better as the day moved on.

I had a couple people remember on their own (no Facebook aid!).
I got more Facebook birthday wishes than I've ever gotten (they were more original, too!).
I got a surprise card and a surprise text and a surprise phone call.
"Happy birthday" was said to me in at least six different languages.
I drank good tea.
My brother wrote me a haiku.

It's been a very happy day. I'm looking forward to the year. =)
