That's it - from now on I'm doing WHATEVER I WANT
If I feel like calling in sick tomorrow and taking the kid to go look at lizards in the desert, then goddammit I'm doing that.

And if I feel like not coming back until 2 am after work, then so be it...

I think all of us here are sick of doing what we're "supposed" to do...

Or maybe I'm just real tired and pushed to the edge by that last call I had to deal with.

4. Tell me about it.
I have to deal with customers all day long. Don't they understand that we have work to do?

I suppose it would be unfair to mention, however, that I started my vacation at 5 this afternoon. :D :bounce:

5. I've been pushed to edge and fell off.
I'm done with "supposed to" (except for certain responsibilities I'm committed to) and wish I could just leap and throw caution to the wind- just be free to be who I am with someone who understands exactly how I feel because of...everything. Especially now. I would have. I could have. It was all so much more though. I still think about it. Someone haunts my heart. I'm confused sometimes if I'm insane or simply intuitive. In the meantime...I try to sleep hoping I won't dream anymore.

6. Best not to dwell on the could have
and better to concentrate on the could be...sounds fucking lame I know but I've made a point of not looking back. Life-whiplash will drive you crazy.

But yeah, I'm sick of it all (this is rant thread #3 today)

Where can I get my own island again?

7. My life is "could have beens"
Edited on Sat Jul-10-04 01:03 AM by SarahBelle
Very few mistakes (or maybe just very few mistakes encompassed by one giant one), very little feeling other than numbness, and all so sweet and nice on paper, in reality another story. But who I am...who I really am...few people ever seem to "get" really (as well as vice versa). Ah, well. Such is life, right?

Here's the islands:

8. Everyone of us has a "shadow self"
No one knows my shadow self - sometimes I don't even know him. People might get introduced to a layer inbetween the self everyone knows and that shadow, but it seems no one will ever know me truly underneath...

Sigh....but then again that runs along the lines of what I was ranting about in my #2 rant...

Wonder if privateislands.com takes Mastercard?
