Re-organizing

Thursday started with me cursing the little bit of sun that was peeking through my suburban Ohio windows. I had no desire to get up for the day, there was too much to do an not enough coffee in the world was going to help that.

First thing I had to do was pick up my 19 year-old sister from her classes at the local community college. All I kept thinking the whole 5 minute drive there was that I in no way, shape, or form wanted to run into my ex that just so happens to go there too. I of course had no makeup on, and quite honestly I barely got out of my jammies.

I don't do mornings well at all, especially when I have to cart around my little sister who eats sunshine and craps rainbows!
After picking her up and getting some much needed coffee (hallelujah!) I was feeling a little better. We had some cleaning up to do, mostly because my father has decided to tear out a 12 foot wall that used to separate our kitchen from what was the den. There is dust and plaster everywhere! I am constanly sweeping and mopping trying to cut down on the funk of it all.

Once we were done with that I figured it wouldn't hurt to check on an online dating profile I had posted quite a while ago. Now, I am not one to use an online dating profile I have to pay for, no eHarmony for me! It feels a little too much like being a hooker without the guarantee of sex and no money going into my wallet. So, I gussied up the profile with a new picture and some edits. It was my way of looking for a date & still being a shut-in :)
After getting a random text from someone I've never met calling me a "bitch ass nigga" I figured it was high time to stay away from all electronics for a while.

Somehow in my tiny town I have been spoken about in hushed tones to all of the gay high school boys. I am now officially "The Gay Whisperer". They come to me with all of life's problems from what label they fall under to what Cher song is the best! The only reason I can ever come up with is that I was a theatre major in college with a ton of gay friends and am quite the hag, if I do say so myself! So of course I had to comfort a confused & frustrated young(16years old) out gay man. I'm pretty sure in all of my advice and whatnot I quoted Christina Aguilera's "Beautiful" at least 3 times.
In a ruse to distract him and get to indulge in one of my favorite guilty pleasures I turned on True Blood and all was well in the world again! After 4 hours of vampires running around fighting stupid humans and getting it on, I was feeling all sorts of happy.

Mostly it was a good day. In my attempt to get this year to be a little more organized I purchased my first day planner. Of all the things I vowed to never buy, a day planner was at the top of the list! Now I'm going to be one of those people, always checking a planner and jotting things down. Who knows how this little experiment will go, but here's hoping it helps in all of the goals I am trying to achieve this year!
