I swear, sometimes it is so confusing to be a girl. Today hasn't been all that bad, to be honest. In fact, all things considered, it's been pretty good, or at least non eventful. I even took a nap a while ago, and then I got on here to catch up on SC since I hadn't all day. I'm just browsing through, reading, commenting, etc. and I got to Lucy's post about being a controlling person, and she mentioned sometimes you just have to have a good cry when you can't seem to take the anxiety/worry any longer. I haven't the slightest clue why, but suddenly I did have a little bit of the urge to cry, and I was sitting reading nodding 'Yeah, that's right.' I didn't cry, the feeling passed almost instantly, and I'm fine even now. What's up with that?
I didn't get all of the things done that I wanted to today, the day's direction took a completely different turn, but it didn't wind up all bad. I got a lot of errands done, knocked out an errand my husband and I would have had to do (via riding along with my dad), and now I've got some sedative/tranquilizer for my horse so as soon as it dries out I can give it a whirl and have a go at her tail properly (hopefully). I'm really keeping my fingers crossed that it works and has full effect. That would be a dream come true because it would open up the opportunity to do so much with her that I've not been able to do before.
I'm hoping that tomorrow runs it's course as I have planned. It just jumbles my mind up when things don't go the way I envisioned, even if they don't go badly. That's sort of what happened today, and then that nap really screwed me up because I've been foggy brained ever since. Stupid me, I should have never napped because now I'll have a hell of a time getting to sleep. Oh well, I'm nearing the home stretch of a really good book, at least in my opinion. Stephen King's 'The Stand'. I've noticed something about my reading style. I'll start a book and read it in my leisurely time, and then the closer to the end I get, the more I'm finding/making time to pick up the book and read. Then I hit this point where i just go into a marathon read, even if I have to sit and read 200 pages, just to finish the book because I can't seem to entertain the thought of putting it down. Of course there are those extra special books that don't apply, because I read them frantically from beginning to end (Twilight, Harry Potter), and then there are those 'others' that just suck and I can't seem to get through the first chapter. Anybody else like this?
Currently I'm sitting, watching a movie, drinking some tea (mmm, thank you a million times again Lucy), and sitting here thinking I should be doing something productive, but I simply don't feel like it. I just feel like goofing off on here. I don't WANT to look for things I need. I don't WANT to find out about my credit report. I figure, it's late, my brain's already scrambled because of the nap, and there will be tomorrow. Beyond that, if I push it, I'm quite liable to not have as productive of a time about it as I am looking to have, so I'd better wait.
Yup, I'll just sit here and enjoy my tea.

Girls are so damn confusing... I am totally like that with books as well!! I can't stand a book where the first chapter, or chapters are just PAINFUL to read. -

who says it's easy to be a girl??? LOL... enjoy your tea... ;-)
i could totally relate with books you can't put down... like it would just destroy the modd if you stop reading... ;-)

Simply - Yup, believe it or not, even though it was Stephen King, it took me nearly 6 months to read Dreamcatcher because it started out sooo agonizingly slow. I'd read a couple of pages and go 'Oh screw this.' and go start another book, and then try again when I finished that one, lol.
Queenie - Oh it's never easy being a girl, I wouldn't even entertain the thought. Totally right in that it does destroy the mood to put it down, you build up such a great story line/movie in your head that soon you just don't want to climb back out of it!

I can only agree, girls are confusing.
I do guess its the other way around to, though.

MMI,
Forget the couch, out in the woods and make a campfire! Thats my plan.
HBH,
Partly yes, however it is not just related to the attraction I think. We just function differently, in some way or another.

Hege,
You're just HUMAN. :-) You are under a lot of stress and you are probably feeling some underlying depression. It's great to be organized and productive, but give yourself a little flexibility. When you make a list, or envision it, maybe prioritize it some. Nothing says you have to get the whole list done every day. You can carry it over to the next. You're putting a lot of pressure on yourself, hon. You be good to you.
It took me a long time to figure that one out myself.

Mixed - We were watching Boogeyman.
Voltaire - Yup, lol, I guess really just everybody is confusing.
HBH - I'll keep that in mind. :-)
MMI - You are right about that, couch potato days are necessary to sort of 'reboot'.
CW - True enough, lol, can't deny that I am human. I think I just get mostly disappointed when my days don't go as planned because well, OTHERS interrupt it I guess. If I were to not accomplish my own list because of ME, well that'd be one thing ... but when somebody else interrupts me, it frazzles me and I've got to reprioritize and that's when my brain is fuzzy ... when I'm reorganizing my plans I guess. No worries though, I just roll with it when I realize it's time to give it up for the night. It was well worth it, I got a pretty good back rub out of the deal. :-)
m00n - Yeah, we do. :-D
Mr.Strange - Darn it all, I need to go back to that post of yours, I keep forgetting.
