How do people do it!?!

I wonder.
How do people do it?
How do they go to the same job, day in, day out...working 10-12 hours a day
and come home to sit in front of the tv, drink a beer or 6 and go to sleep to get little sleep every night and wake up and do it all over again?

Really? It's not that I want to know the answer to this question so I can master it.
But I just don't know how I can stand it when I do it in small increments such as I am right now.

I work 10-12 or more hour days and come home, have some wine, watched some paranormal tv shows and don't forget "Real WOrld" and now I'm trying to go to bed...early.

Early. It's 11:30pm already and I won't even get 8 hours or 7 hours.
What is required to actually feel rested?

So, I don't want to know how to do it so I can accomplish the task of living like this but how can I not do it?

hah! I guess that's the real question. What I daydream about.
Maybe this is my quest and I follow the yellow brick road and see where it goes.
And maybe I won't have to do this much longer.

What to do

What to do what to do...what to do when I'm feeling a bit unmotivated yet like my motivation is pent up and I don't have time for it.
Don't have the energy for it.
Don't quite know how to stick it out and get it out of me.
What to do, what do I need to do?

Will there ever be that magical moment when everything feels like it's in place and it opens itself up to me and says, "Aha! Yes, now...DO!"

And poof! Everything will be as it has never been before but as I always dreamed it should be and I will do.

Ugh...daydreaming...it's what I am best at.

Hmmmmmm

What does one write about when one is trying to write every single day. (I only say "trying" since I missed ONE freakin, measely little day).
I tend to go with the "whatever comes to mind" strategy.

And what happens when nothing comes to mind?

Hmmmmmmm......

Seeing things

So I have had a fantastic weekend just relaxing with Cassandra.
We have been watching this show called "Psychic Kids" for the last few hours.
Probably for longer than I want to admit.
But it's a really cool show.
Makes me realize most of us have probably had some sort of feeling of something watching us or had a creepy feeling like something is in the room at some point.
I'm not feeling that at this moment, luckily, but I have had that feeling.

It's cool to see the kids on this show and what they feel and how they accomplish getting past their fear.
It's a good lesson to learn and apply to other aspects of life.
To sit with the process and not have fear within facing that fear.

I will take positivity from this lesson and apply it to my own life.
Thanks, Psychic Kids!

I'm pretty sure

...I'm pretty sure I missed blogging last night. So sleepy. I slept til almost 1 today trying to catch up on missed or delayed sleep from my trip and from going right to work from travelling.

It's raining now. I like the rain. In fact love the rain. There's something so cozy and peaceful and actually warm about it.

And for now I get to enjoy my long weekend off and continue to work next week.

Interesting

District 9...WTF...hah!
I am sure I should take some time to think it out and see what it symbolizes but it hasn't completely sunk in yet since I just finished it and need to go to sleep asap.
It was definitely interesting, though, and gross at times. Though, not as gross as people made it out to be.

It is definitely better than alot of movies out there, especially better than 2012 which I thought for sure wasn't going to be as bad as people said.
Whoever those people were.

I do look forward to seeing "The Lovely Bones" this weekend. Look forward in the way that I read the book quite a while ago and Peter Jackson is directing it. I love his work.
But I am prepared. It's a messed up story.

How wonderful that an author can make you feel what you feel from the words they wriet. I hope I do the same.

I'm home

I am home and oh so so tired. I am off to bed soon. I had a fantastic time in Austin, my other home.
And though I am happy to be home to my beautiful girlfriend and my amazing kitties and my lovely city, I of course miss my family and my friends.

It's always nice to have 2 homes, it's just hard when they are so far away from each other.

Not much to say tonight. Going to sleep soon. So sleepy.
