Stolen from The Gal Herself

I was reading One Gal's musings and found this and I stole her idea and did it. I'm quite impress, I'm usually very mature and adult, I only have issue with Power Trippin' people.



You Are 73% Grown Up, 27% Kid



Congratulations, you are definitely quite emotionally mature.

Although you have your moments of moodiness, you're usually stable and level headed.

Currently listening to

Memory by Barbara Streisand and it's freaking awesome. It's touching me deeply, it's like bringing me back to memory lane. But the good memory lane, not the "in the deep darkness one." lol



Barbra Streisand - Memory Lyrics


[From "Cats"]

Midnight
Not a sound from the pavement
Has the moon lost her memory
She is smiling alone
In the lamplight
The withered leaves collect at my feet
And the wind begins to moan
Memory, all alone in the moonlight
I can dream of the old days
Life was beautiful then
I remember the time I knew what happiness was
Let the memory live again
Every street lamp seems to beat
A fatalistic warning
Someone mutters and the street lamp sputters
Soon it will be morning
Daylight
I must wait for the sunrise
I must think of a new life and
I mustn't give in
When the dawn comes
Tonight will be a memory too
And a new day will begin
Burnt out ends of smoky days
The stale court smell of morning
A street lamp dies
Another night is over
Another day is dawning
Touch me,
It is so easy to leave me
All alone with the memory
Of my days in the sun
If you'll touch me,
You'll understand what happiness is
Look, a new day has begun...


Do you revisit memory lane sometimes? I know, I know, NNG, get your butt in bed, It's time to sleep. wink

Good grief, I feel like I'm a rebel

Cuz I'm not writing that often and it's not because I don't have time but I've been keeping myself busy with the books. I've also been trying to get out of the house and get up earlier in the morning to feel "normal" again. So I set the alarm in the morning for 9 am weekdays even if I don't have something to do.

I had a long talk with The Friendly Boss (TFB) last night and I need to work on something, I need to work on the way I react to a specific power trippin' person. I only control myself, I can't make the person change, it's just not realistic. I only have control over me. mrgreen The talk made me feel better, it was helpful, it was an eye opener. I'm going to use my intelligence and my strength to deal with Mr.Power Trippin' (MPT). I'm also going to work on all those little things we discussed and next time I've got to deal with MPT, I'll update you.smile Psst, I know I'm very vague but even if I have not much respect for MPT, I will not refer to him with a nick name that could make him identifiable.

I needed new shoes for this spring, school and everything and wasn't really willing to pay full price even for Hush Puppies. I got a great great deal on those just because they are from last season, I don't care, the new model looks almost the same. I love, love them. They'll be great everyday shoes and they're chic and cute.

I need to go grocery shopping tomorrow and it's freaking snowing again. Plus The Sister will call me tomorrow, she's at The Parent's house for the weekend, I hope we'll be able to have coffee together. I have not seen her since January 1st, she doesn't live in our area, she is far far away.

Hope you guys are doing good. Update me!
