4th Grade Memories

The strangest thing happened today. I saw this kid Rikki from my fourth grade class in AAA. I have not seen him since 4th grade but he actually remembered my name, which is mind boggling to me because my name is not the easiest to rememeber. I mean if he didn't remember me though it would have been very awkward. I interrupted his session with his travel agent and his buddy. "Yea, no I don't remember you sorry." So that was insane!

I was driving home from Steve Baldo's getting my rental car which I am excited about as long as I don't wreck it in any way. I could have it for up to two weeks?-THey don't know when the parts are going to come in? So anyways...I am driving home and these 2 kids about my age come up to the side of me and take a picture with a funsaver camera...wave....and speed ahead. It was so weird!!!

So I totally want to get into working out again. My goal is daily to run/stairmaster about 3 miles a day. While we are on the subject of "health" I don't know why but i really hate this Atkins craze. I don't generally get annoyed-I don't think? But it just annoys me that EVERYWHERE has to jump onto the band wagon (2 words??).

Blog-its everywhere

I had never heard the word Blog before until Saturday. I suppose that is probably because I am last to know everything, and don't make enough of an effort to know what is going on in this world. But now the word seems to be everywhere!!! I didn't even realize I was apart of one.

My car is a bit wrecked from an accident Friday. I am hoping it all turns out well with the insurance.

I am desperately looking forward to a trip to Florida with Mike and maybe Maureen if she would grace us with her presence.

I really need to do something creative-maybe even a couple of things. I want to really be more committed to my guitar, work on poetry, and maybe even take up photography??? If anyone has any tips, please let me know.

The Strip Ambience

So today I found out at our pharmacy meeting that we were named number one for customer service out of all the Wegmans pharmacies. This is a HUGE deal!!! So i recommend that everyone bring their prescriptions to the Amherst street pharmacy-which of course happens to be just off of Elmwood!

I don't know if it is just because of this site, but I really think that "the strip" is the best part of Buffalo. I think its because it is about as Hippie as you can get around here. And I totally wish i was a Hippie. Most people are just really cool and diverse and open. It is a lovely area, that just feels so close knit and art-sy (sp?) (which I am NOT, but would like to be). Actually, my word-a-day calendar had a good word to go along with Elmwood: Convivial, which means good food and interesting conversation.

New-Bee

Although I have had a journal since the 5th grade, i have never had one on-line. So i guess that means keeping all of the strange and random thoughts to myself?-wait then what fun would a journal be? I am excited about this journal, I just hope that i can make that kind of commitment right now in my life. So I would like the following to be main attractions in my journal:

1. Cool information that i find out (this could take some effort)
2. Random thoughts
3. Random cool questions
4. Probably lotz of lists
5. Progress on my path to self (corny-YES but vital to this journal i think?)

I have come to a revelation this week...I do not like Chippawa as much as Elmwood. I always thought that i liked it better but now I have to say that I have really noticed the difference in the crowds, and I am partial to Elmwood.

So tonight I am willing to admit that I watched "You got served" The movie if you took out everything BUT the dance scenes was entertaining. I may have to buy the soundtrack even though I am not a big sound track type person because the music was just THAT good!!!

My question for this entry is: (can you hear the drum roll???) Do you think people underestimate our ability to deal with emotionally stressful situation?
I think that we do. We seem to always think that anything we feel that isn't good is unacceptable. So often we feel on the edge, but i think that it is because society does not give us that support saying its okay to have emotional difficulty. I think we are just really scared of emotional pain and i definitely do not exclude myself.

I feel like i need a signature ending like "Seacrest (SP?) out" or "Take care of yourself and each other." Maybe i will work on that?
