Times, they are a changin'

Strange, suddenly, things are a bit different. My appartment is clean. Well, pretty clean anyway. I need to organize the book shelves and closet because it looks my closet threwup into the rest of the room, but still, its a huge improvement. I finished "cleaning" on Sunday, and have swept the floors and done the dishes every night since. I know that to most people that seems like no big deal, however, for me, its huge. I also re-joined Curves last night. I did my first work out, had a good dinner after wards. Today its an apple for breakfast, a sandwhich for lunch. Carrots and yogurt incase I'm still hungry. That's right, I even packed a lunch that I didn't buy at the gas station down the street! I don't know what has led to this change really, I kind of had been sort of considering some things, but kept putting it off, because its easiest to do it "tomorrow". Then all of a sudden, without thinking, I just went ahead and did it. It's strange, I seem to be doing a lot more things like that now. Have an idea and think about it for a while, never actually acting on it, and then suddenly one day, putting it out of my mind, then closing my eyes and jumping. Strange. It's been good so far I guess, but it does have some scary and dangerous possibilities if I get into a funk. I also am bringing home a cockatiel tonight. He came into the shelter today. His name is Freddy. Yes, thats the name of my cat too, well Freddie is. But the bird and the cat were both already named before I ever met them so it's not my fault. I may end up re-naming the bird. I don't know yet, we'll see how it goes. BTW, to that person who made a comment back in February, thanks for the kind words. I work at a private animal shelter. We are run by a board of directors, not the government, and subsist on donations and grants. We take in mainly cats and dogs that are surrendered by their owners, although, sometimes will pull from other shelters, or take in "stray" animals that someone has been caring for for a while. Generally the animal control groups will not handle these animals.

You mean... its not supposed to do that?

Opps, I killed my computer. I turn it on and it says something along the line of being unable to boot the disk please insert the disk. I'm not really sure which disk its looking for, nor am I sure that I actually have that disk anywhere. It's pretty quiet and relaxing not having the computer again. I am drawn to it of course, but I'm reading more books and watching more tv. The computer is a social outlet for me, and now I don't have that, and of course I miss some of you people out there in cyberspace. I don't know how long it will take me to get the computer fixed or replaced, but it probably won't be any time in the forseeable future. Did I spell that right? I don't think so, but oh well.
