* my dad joined facebook today. GAH!!!! WORLDS COLLIDING!!!! no, he hasn't sent me a friend request yet.

* today was a perfect work-from-home day. i got in some kitty snorgling, i spent the day smelling the beautiful cool breeze coming in my windows instead of being sealed up in my office, and i got a TON of items checked off of my to-do list, including a couple of project pieces that i'd been putting off for a long time.

* in my effort to stop the horrible cycle of nights spent surfing the 'net with the TV on, i turned off the TV after dinner and spent the evening out on the deck. wow, i felt like i was on vacation! i put on some brazilian samba lounge-y music, and spent a couple of hours reading magazines while my laundry was in the dryer. it was lovely. why in the world don't i do that more often???

* because i still have stupid leftover issues from high school, i always have a major case of FOMS (Fear Of Missing Something). i constantly have to remind myself that there are a lot of people in my life, and that they are all allowed to have social goings-on outside of me. am i the only person pushing 40 who still gets a little pang when a friend tells them they did something awesome without them?

* i heart my chiropractor so much. in 2 sessions this week, he's been able to adjust me in such a way that i'm not waking up in the middle of the night with screaming neck and shoulder pain. i've been sleeping like a baby. still having the ongoing traveling to boston/can't find my car somewhere/late for something and can't get there dreams, but at least i'm snoring through them instead of waking up in agony.

Seriously, at this point I'm more surprised when they do something awesome with me.

The next bit of Awesome I have coming up is Charlie's barbeque, and you're already going. Other than that, my second best is probably a trip to a really nice pet store with Lori and Lou to look at fish and aquarium plants.

So yeah, you're not missing much with me at least. :P

My dad sent me the dreaded friend request last week, which I sweated over before accepting it. Thank god there haven't been any embarrassing posts from him. Yet.

No! Though... I guess I'm not pushing 40. But yeah, I usually get a little pang, and depending on where my general mood/hormones are, sometimes hearing that can be enough to push me into a pity-party. Glad it's not just me.

My Mum's on, which is fine with me. The hard one was when the president of my company friended me. Damn! Can't say no to that one, particularly since I started all this social networking shit for work.

Not that I was exactly a wild woman before that, but now I think even harder before posting a status.

FOMS

That's a big reason why I live in the city, rather than realizing the gain on the condo and moving someplace a heck of a lot cheaper, with a yard for gardening, somewhere in the 'burbs.
