Day 4
I want to be a Galavanting Monkey and marry someone with deep goodness in his family roots. Pretty much, that is the main thing I want to create in this life: a clan with deep goodness at it’s roots. LOTS of love.
Hmmm…. Maybe I should change this site to “Also a Gallavanting Monkey” “Gallavanting Monkey in Training”, “Soon to be a Gallavanting Monkey.”
Yesterday I ate a bag of M & M’s and then immediately afterwards, I had a cold. I didn’t have a cold, I was perfectly fine, I ate a normal size bag of M & M’s, I did have a cold.
Today I am practicing the art of forgiveness. My boss is giving me grief for leaving early yesterday. I want to be self-righteous in my head, but (here is the forgiveness) she is only doing her job. I should also practice truth. Here is the truth: I left because the equation of “nothing left to do today” plus, “have to walk down to my car and put more quarters in the meter” plus “my last day is soon, what are they going to do, fire me?” plus “It’s 2:00 and I haven’t had a chance to have lunch yet” all added up in my head to: walk down to my car, but don’t put coins in the meter, just drive home and eat lunch there, ’cause I have nothing left to do today and what are they going to do, fire me?
Where o where could the self-righteousness come in, you say? Well, I’m home sick today and still checking my work email and I called a Prof. to help her with her grading even though I will not get paid for my helping hours at home. So, I guess I feel like I am a good worker if not a good employee because I do get the job done and I don’t want to inconvenience anybody.
Bonus of the day: I’ve never actually talked to this particular prof. and she has an Australian accent! It really goes well with the blog I tore myself away from to call her! Also her name is Jenny which is cute and also she was really nice, which is cute, especially when I have a cold.
YOU, ma’am, are a completely charming cookiehead honeypot. Thank you for your comments and for reading and enjoying the ol’ blog!
I was reading the post of yours about approving about yourself and I hope you just do it immediately and forget any hoser who gives you an alternate vibe. I relate entirely. I think I finally have the basic self-approval thing going on, but it took many oodles of years.
While I just became aware of you today, I totally approve of you. And I am sorry about those horrible but also adorable fast-acting cold-producing M & M’s.

Who am I maybe kidding about the self-approval thing? I think maybe MYSELF. I thought about my comment and thought in retrospect it was a little self-congratulatory and hoserly. (Not the parts about you being charming and great. Those were on the money.)

:) :) Well, I LOVED your comment. It made my day when I went in to delete all my spam cmments and there was your comment! Thank you so much for coming by. I guess we all have times of approving and not approving of ourselves. I loved reading that you approve of yourself.
Last night, I read my friend the post where you return the video late and we laughed and laughed! Unfortunately, I can relate to that post a little too well!
Ps: After reading your comment, I felt guilty about the post I wrote about approval bacause it reflected badly on my roommate and my aunt! It just makes me laugh that I read your comment and then thought I better go add something to that post and then you came back today and added something to your comment!
