peanut butter and OCD

Today while washing dishes I had to encounter one of my most hated smells ever: the combination of hot peanut butter mixed with dish soap. I tried to figure out why I hate this smell so much, and my thoughts went back to my childhood and my mother's obsessive compulsive disorders: one of which was making sure every piece of recycling (plastic jars, metal cans, etc.) was thoroughly soaked and cleaned before put in the recycling bin. In particular, she wanted peanut butter jars to be clean, so she would fill the jar with hot water and dish soap and let it soak on the kitchen counter for hours. I don't know if this was some ingenious plan she had, or if it was due to pure laziness in regards to actually scrubbing something to get it clean. Anyway, I don't really see the point in cleaning recycling materials, since they are melted down to nothing and sterilized before they are used again. Still, this doesn't explain why I hate the smell so much. I must just relate it to bad memories of my mother. That's right, I heard it straight out of my psychologist's mouth, I am allowed to blame my mother for most of my psychotic quirks.

stupid stupid morning

i've had a really bad stomach ache since yesterday and it's 7am and i am trying to get ready for work. i need to eat breakfast so i can stand up for 4 hours, but i really feel like i am going to die. floppydonkey went home for the weekend for his grandpa's birthday so there is no one here to take care of me. so, of course i couldn't sleep with only myself in the bed, and the rain, and the loudness of elmwood on a saturday night. so that is prolly adding to my tummy ache. who goes shopping at the mall at 8am anyway??? oh that's right, no one, because it doesn't open until 10.

Soyeon

[inlink]soyeon,42[/inlink]Please totally ignore that email. Your first clue should have been when it said "Dear Sir." Also, don't ever send anyone your bank information online. That's just crazy.

I haven't had much to write about lately. I just work and then come home and do nothing. Floppydonkey and I went for a run at Delaware Park yesterday. It was really hot. I'm going to be really bored this weekend.

a beautiful evening

[inlink]emily,169[/inlink]I used to play that when I was little, but we played MATH = mansion, apartment, trailer, house...or if we were playing with someone we didn't really like, T would become Toilet.

I just came back from a very enjoyable walk down Elmwood with Floppydonkey. I stopped and took a few pictures and spent a few minutes at Talking Leaves. Now we are getting a dinner picnic together to take to Delaware Park.
PS: Floppydonkey doesn't post much because he doesn't think people care what he has to say. Please visit his journal and let him know you care.

sorry i am antisocial

That was sweet. I love watching people from my living room window and I love telechalking! hahaha Maybe next time I'll actually have clothes on instead of jammies and come down and say hi.

See pics of my bunny, Ruby:

She came from Elmwood Pet Supplies

to work, or not to work...

I'm trying to decide if I should bother going to work tomorrow. If I skip tomorrow, then today will be my last day. I really hate waking up at 7, and I know I will have to start doing it again in a few weeks. One extra day of sleeping longer would be nice. And I don't really do much at that job anyway, plus the kids give me a headache. I think I will talk to my sueprvisor and make sure that he really doesn't care if I finish up today. I'm not lazy, just worn out. I think there's a big difference. I need a rest. I haven't gotten one since January.
