sunday morning musings
The last three days have been an interesting mixed bag of happenings. It started Friday, when I ran away from work.
Friday morning when I went to work I was feeling irritable. Not the normal, traffic was slow I just spilled my coffee kind of irritable, but more the don’t mess with me or I’ll hurt you type irritable. And it didn’t really get any better once I got there, it only got worse. So, after being there for an hour, I decided the best thing for my sanity was just to get out for the day, especially since we’ll be working some overtime the next couple of weeks. I was irritable until later that morning, when I just finally let it go. In Chinese medicine, the condition is called excess Liver heat, in this caase caused by deficient Kidney energy. In Chinese medicine, Liver coresponds to the element of Wood, which corresponds to the emotion of anger.
I haven’t done a whole lot the last three days or so, a friend at work loaned me the first season of a tv show on dvd, which I have already completed. Pretty funny, but not what I’d call my favorite. Yesterday I just did my regular shopping, but I also vacuumed the house and swept and mopped the kitchen floor.
Parts of my house, like parts of my life, have become rather messy, particularly the kitchen and to a lesser degree, the living room. Last night I conquered the floor, and this morning I’m working on the kitchen counters. I’ve gotten them wiped off and clean, now I just need to figure out what needs to get put into cupboards and what stays on the counter, which will be a lot less than it was.
I haven’t been able to make up my mind about something either. It’s been a couple months since I went on a date, so I signed up at a couple of internet dating sites again, despite my last remarks of internet dating pretty much sucking. I’ve also come to the conclusion that if I wait until I meet someone in person, likely I may never date again since my routine is so much about staying home unless I’m going to work, class, or the store. I hav emy profile on some free sites, but I keep getting interests off the one paying site I belong to. Well, you don’t have to pay to belong, but you have to pay to email. It’s not like it’s expensive, but I’m just having trouble with the idea of paying for email when I have four web email accounts that don’t cost me a thing.
Well, I should probably go, I still have a kitchen to finish straightening up, a living room to finish straightening up, and food to fix for the week. And maybe a date to make.
