Has anyone even missed me?!?!?!
Yes, I know I have been missing for a long long time. I am sorry for this - no really, I am. I have to start writing more often so as to practice for my book. Yes, my book. Iwill tell you more about it someday...when I actually have a plot line and characters devised. I feel though that writing a book would be a great job. ESPECIALLY if someone liked it enough to actually publish it making all your hard work and dedication worthwhile.
The truth is though, if you write a book, you are on your deadlines and your not killing anyone by not getting enough blood for the patients who are in need. This current job of mine seems a little too stressful. Definitely a lose lose situation. Honestly, you can't win for losing. I am very discuraged (and feel that I can't spell, but have little concern for that now - so if I am misspelling words, over look them or comment if you so desire!). It is my understanding that most people in the world do not like going to work on a day to day basis - that is why it is called work. However, life seems to short to hate waking up to go to a place where you feel inadequate and seemingly worthless (whether self-imposed or otherwise). And furthermore, why is every work week so much longer than the weekends? Don't people need some time to do grown-up things like laundry, grass mowing, car washing, bill paying, etc. not to mention just want to veg out and relax a SECOND!
I am in a funk. I have been in a funk. I feel funky. How can we fix this problem? WRITE A BOOK! I was just thinking that too! Now, if only the creative juices would start flowing so I can get on this new plan.
So, I am seriously going to be better with the BLOG. I have to be. I just do.
Love you all who care enough to read my ever so sparse postings! :)

Girl, I was worried you had been shipped to Louisiana. Nice to see you back. Why does it seem like everyone who I know is in a funk?? Must be the quarter-life crisis. I'm not a fan. Anyway, get the book started so you can publish it and be taken away from the mundane realities of life.
Thank goodness you are posting again! Nana is right, all of us lately have blogged about our work-ruts. I know we are smart and fabulous ladies, so lets all follow the great wisdom of our youth - and Hang Tough. It will get better, of this I am certain! Oh, and Linz, you are stealing my idea of writing a novel - but we could have our book tours together, which would be awesome!
Mookie,
We talked about the book thing...remember. We actually both were thinking about it and then said we would write together...like our learn to knit project, just this will be "write a book so you don't have to have a real job" project. You are writing a serious Pulitzer type book and I am writing a chic lit book. Yours will be published...mine won't and then I will run your book signing tour. Jogging memories? :)
Ha! You're right, in the fog of me being at work too long yesterday I forgot that we had that talk - but don't knock your chick lit, a lot of people read that, so if you wrote it it probably WOULD get published and every girl on the metro would be reading a copy. I think it is a viable plan. Then I can plan YOUR book tour!
