StarbuckKitwitCaptainJackSparrowNoGetOffThere!

All over the place for just a minute here. But you should pretty much be used to that from me...

My new doc has requested a second test. It's an offshoot of one I just had with different imaging added. Now. I'm not sure if I should laugh or cry because I don't see this ending well. Not the results, but the completion of the test itself. It involves balance, dexterity, speed, stamina and clear nasal passages. Lol, I'm not sure if I should fear what happens or laugh, figuring it'll make a good story. You think they'd provide a safety harness?

So I'm having this odd thing again. You know, the one with the push-pull. Sometimes I just want to go get lost in a city (not one I know) and blend. Blend so much that every face I see reminds me of nothing. Knowing I could do anything and it would never get back to anyone. No one to care what I say, wear, or do. Total detachment. Then I realize that I like to be a little away from that; to be able to escape to the lake or take a walk in the woods. I need to be able to go out and watch the duck babies or crudely identify birds. I'm not certain I'm ever going to find the blend of what I want. Thing is, if asked to give one up, I don't know what I would do - thats how closely meshed they are. Something tells me that one of those is a substitute for something else that is lacking in my life but since I can't identify it, it is coming out as being described that way. Hmm. Well, that's still no frickin' help to me.

Remember I told you about my little charge? The furry one. Well, he's 11 weeks now and I've managed to snap a photo of him. Might I say, that is a highly difficult thing to do because he never stops moving. I didn't bother cropping the photo - this is all you get. He's something else, though. And oh so entertaining. Still searching for a good home for him before he sucks up all my money. ;)

simple observation

Have you recently stopped to notice that sometimes you have an opportunity to get what you want, or think you wanted? The most unfortunate thing is when the timing is so far off it is laughable, or you no longer want it, or it just isn't right anymore. But you see it and a part of you still wants it to be what it once could have been. Even when it won't be.

All the while I can't help but wondering what other sorts of opportunities may be passing by unnoticed in the shadow of the darkly comedic twist of the aforementioned events.
