I hope that someone gets my message in a bottle. |

Got an idea a while back for something that would be neat to do in here at the beginning of every month; like all my good ideas it got put on my list and then, a few months later, actually started to be done. >.< I hope to be able to start doing this every month, but I know me and my craptastic time-management issues, so if I can do this once every few months I would be happy with myself.
I like to call this the State Of My Unreal Union.
In five lines or less here is a synopsis of the things going on in my life right now, broken down into subjects. I did this for the first time months back in another format and really liked doing it. At the time I felt it was a nice way to center myself and get my goals for the month lined up neat and tidy; I still feel that way, I just also think it is fun to do and read back on as time goes by.
A synopsis on everything Flare.
Work: Well. I have not been de-promoted yet. And if that was not a word it is one now. Valentine's Day will make my two-years-and-two-month anniversary of my first day of working there. Oh, the things that were set into motion the day I got hired there...
Health (Mental): Ha ha! That makes it sound like I have any mental health!
...
No, seriously. I am insane. eek
Health (Physical): Caffeine is still my most unhealthy vice. Sleep and relaxing- what the hell are those things? xD I kid, I kid- that is not really true, because I have been making time for myself here lately that I used to not allow myself and I am trying to allow myself at least eight hours a night or before work. I really have done a good job of cutting back on the caffeine (as my Count pointed out to me the other night, he can tell because I am more "here" then I used to be and a lot nicer xD) but I still have tons of improvement to make when it comes to being kinder on my poor body. >.<
Relationships (Boyfriend): I find myself having a hard time reconciling the reality of him. I think and feel that is more my failing then his at this being-in-a-relationship-adventure (he seems to take to being in a couple so much easier then I do). It is hard to make the transition from a very proud and very independent I to a demonstrative and sharing we. At least it is for someone like me. He is unlike anything I have ever known before and I love him dearly; thank you, Gaia. xd heart
Relationships (Non-boyfriend): Only icons can express what I am thinking of right now.
ninja heart
Tee hee!
Writing: This is the closest I have come to writing in so long that to think of certain things makes my blood pressure feel like I am the next Yellowstone. I am working on making more time for doing this; I just need to be more disciplined in keeping my boundaries when it comes to certain things. I love writing too much to continue as I have been. This is one area of my life I will change, simply because it is in my heartblood to write.
Personal Matters: I am wading through lists and plans and notebooks and loose notes and... @.@ There is so much to do!
Gaia: I am only six PMs down as of this journal entry; still, there is so much to do and get back on top of that I feel like I have a long way to go. There is so much guild/profile/thread work to get done that I worry I can not get it all done in one or two days like I am going to try...but I am still going to try. My plan is to take the next two days I have off in a row and do nothing but hammer away at my Gaia To-Do- everything is on that list, from arranging my inventory to zipping out PMs. I know I can do it, just got to stay focused. @.@
Marvel: Or, as Cee likes to call it, Mervel. xD I am super, super, super behind on this project/on-going event. I have so many ideas in my head and so many plans...I just need to sit my A.D.D. a** down and get done all that I need to do behind the curtain and then stick to my plan of putting aside a day each week for us to play. Sounds so easy in theory but in reality I hardly manage work, let alone everything else. @.@
Apartment: My apartment needs to be cleaned out, sorted, cleaned out again and sorted once more for good measure. Then it just needs the cleaning of its lifetime...and maybe another purge. Rinse and repeat.
As of the night of tomorrow night, Operation Clean Apartment is go.
More on that in another post, but the barest of baby-steps will get started on the big reworking I have in mind for my apartment.

And just for this month's State:
Valentine's Day: Tee hee! ninja heart
~
After work tomorrow I am going to maybe head out with the group to get something to eat, and after that my plans are to work on my bedroom for a few hours. I have a modest goal: fill up two huge garbage bags of stuff to toss out tomorrow. It is a small start but a start. What is that saying about a trip of a thousand miles begins with one step?
Y'know, it is nice to be thinking of "the group"; knowing that I have one, despite being the introverted crank that I am. xD The phrase means something completely different to me now then it used to and knowing that makes me glad, because it is a good change. I am a quality over quantity type- I would much rather have two or three really good friends, people that I know I can depend on, then have a ton of acquaintances. I am lucky to have some really good friends both online and off.*
In other random, unrelated news the boyfriend unit has gotten me addicted to that damnable enigma that is the Lost television show and it is back, so I probably will have a heart attack soon if certain elements of that show are not fixed. I mention this because it is topical on so many levels- one being that it is the month of love and I am hoping that before the month is over certain events on the show will be...dealt with in a manner that will not leave me yelling at the computer like I did last week.
stare I got my eye on you, Abrams.
I think that is about all for now. This entry is a nice peek into the madness that is going on behind the curtain; hopefully in the next few days I can spend some more time on here getting things worked on but I am not so sure that will happen. This is going to be a busy week and for the most part I had wanted to focus on Operation Clean Apartment. I work strange- until I get my surroundings straightened up I just can not focus on getting work on here dealt with, as off-kilter as I know that sounds. I well and truly believe that when I feel like the apartment has been tidied up to my liking and all the stuff from yester-years tossed out then I can well and truly move forward, onto the next adventures to be had.
2010 has sincerely rocked so far and I fully intend to keep the momentum going.
*Lucky because they continue to put up with me.
