Why am I so Crabby?

Mood: Mentally Exhausted


It is 1 am, and while I was just showering I got to thinking about time. How I never seem to have enough of it. How it seems to slip away in a heartbeat. How I long for a few more hours in my days.
Anyway, I did a little math. Here is what I came up with.
168 total hours in a week. Of those 168, I spend 30 at my "real" job, 30 at my "labor of love" job, 15 at my "extra $$" job. At least 14 hours on the phone (business only), at least 14 hours in the car (business related travels). 12 hours on the soccer field for my kid. (part of which is spent in the parking lot doing Soccer business) 7 hours cleaning house (and the lack of time shows) 3.5 hours in the shower. 1 hour brushing my teeth. 2.5 hours going tinkle. 7 hours nourishing my body. 1.5 hours getting un/dressed.
The grand total of all this is 137.5 hours. Which leaves 30.5 hours for Sleep, Sex and anything fun!!
No wonder I'm Crabby!!!
Might explain why I haven't blogged in months too :(

Color Struck: A Psychoanalytical Perspective

Color Struck: A Psychoanalytical Perspective             In “ Color Struck ,” Zora Neale Hurston (2005) illustrates the tragedy of a couple in the 1900’s.  John, a light brown-skinned man, and Emma, a black woman, attend a cake walk to represent their community and bring home the grand prize.  Emma is so preoccupied with her misguided ideas of the prejudices of others that she inadvertently sabotages her relationship with John.  Her paranoia and insecurity run so deep, that they remain with her for 20 years and ultimately ruin her opportunity for true love a second time.  Exploring a work of literature from a p sychoanalytical perspective “aim to reveal the influence of the subconscious in the text’s plot, setting, conflict, symbols, point of view, language, and character development (South University Online, 2010, para. 1). From this perspective it is revealed that the prejudice that Emma accuses everyone e...

Confused..

(repost from May 2010) I have been wondering lately.  What happened to the days when people actually gave a shit about how their actions or words would effect others?  Does anyone think outside their own existence anymore? I have a temper.  Hell most of us do to some extent.  I have learned via trial and error how to keep it in check.  I have learned that sometimes the best thing to say is nothing at all.  Especially when I am pissed off.  Anger never translates to reason and understanding.   When I start to do something, I often ask myself how it will effect people.  Am I going to step on toes or hurt feelings.  Is it going to make me look like a total douche bag??  I have always been the type to "try" to filter my thoughts before I blurt or react. I know that I have stopped myself from things based on the answers to the above questions.  Sometimes stopping myself helps spare others while in turn hurting me. Typ...

Long week...

It has been a long week.  One foot in front of the other...one moment at a time.  That is how I have learned to plow through this proverbial roller coaster of life. Disappointed to be going on vacation with out my Love. Excited to be getting to go on vacation. Sad to be away from hubs while traveling. Ecstatic to get solid quality face to face with sissy. Frustrated that my health has so much control over my life. Blessed to be alive to face these challenges. Annoyed at work related BS that effects my financial well being and having no control over it. Thankful to have a job. Its a balance....
