busy busy bumble bee takes a rest on the rose

Howdys,

I’ve been a running around and around and around. *hits post…ouch*

Actually, I haven’t been busy, I’ve been just enough. I’ve finally gotten used to the sleep schedule and everything else. I just needed a set time for stuffs. Once I get used to it, things calm down.

Swing class is really coming along. TIm and I are starting to not look like drunken marionettes! We’re going to sign up again next session. We just dont’ know for which class yet.

I’ve been reading again. I forgot how nice a good book could be. I have DeForest Kelley’s biography waiting on my desk. I’m going to start it when I finish catching up with all my comics. There’s only two or three left, so yeah!

Weird feeling for the day: I went up to the college. I’m going back to school in the fall and I needed to figure out what kind of stuff I needed to do and things. I can take my tests anytime, but because of the A+ stuff I have to meet with a couple more people. *shrugs*

I think the hardest thing will be choosing a course direction. I’d be lying to myself if I didn’t you my arms as a “crutch” to stay out of school for a year. I couldn’t have gone to school, that’s for sure. But I really don’t think I would have gone this year anyway.

Sometimes I feel bad that all my friends will have a year under their belts. They’ll enter the “real world” before I do, but I’ve gained a lot of experience this year. Living ain’t cheap and sometimes everything kind of gets lost in trying to makes ends meet.

I think Tim and I enjoy ourselves more on our “cheap dates” because we’re really starting to appericate the time and the other person. We’re more than happy to just put together a puzzle instead of going to dinner and a movie. Don’t get me wrong, we like the movies and such, we’re just a little pickier.

Taking the year off was nice. I’m really enjoying where I am and what I go about doing. There’s not as much wasted time, because I’m learning how to manage it better. I’m not killing hundreds of hours just watching tv. I’m watching tv and doing stuff. I’m reading when I have down time between work and my work out.

Most of all, in case you haven’t noticed, I’m not relying on the computer to keep me occupied. It’s now a tool to help me out and to connect me. No longer is it the thing that wasted hours of my day as I sat bored.

So don’t worry if I’m not on as much as before. I’m just following the scent of the flower.
