Hard to Concentrate

Would you look at that? Frakin' amazing. To some, the image of a lighthouse perched on a rocky cliff isn't anything worth doting over. But to me, it's really quite something. It's magical. Timeless. It helps that there's an ocean right there and that I was standing right next to it, breathing in the salty air and enjoying the random cries of seagulls darting overhead.

Sitting here at my desk, that moment seems worlds away. Ages ago. But overall, even just the picture calms my frazzled nerves and reminds me that peace is found in the most random of places.

I can't even begin to think about knowing what to blog about today. It's one of those heavy Thursdays that should be a Friday. Yeah, one of those. It's probably because it's nice outside (albeit getting a tad hot), and I'm heading to the lake this weekend for a couple days of theatre. Lots of theatre. It'll be good. To be at a theatre conference where I'm just there to watch.

Though I'll tell ya, I'm not in the best of spirits right now. You might have noticed that from my last post. Yeah... I was just a might stressed. Busy stressed. Lots of things on my plate... so much that it's all spilling over onto the floor, my pants, other people's plates... messy things, people. Messy things.

It'll calm down. Six minutes past forever. That's about when it'll calm down. Or July. Yeah... July seems like a nice, relaxing month. It's funny. May was work month. Truly, my days revolved around my job and there was no escape. Everything hinged on this one pivotal moment that has come and gone and was awesome for the organization... but now it's past and it was reminiscent of a New Year's Eve party that doesn't live up to expectations.

June has been allocated to the theater, in every conceivable way. In fact, I just thought of something I need to do before the weekend.

...

But then work got in the way. Yes, this is one of those posts that it composed on mini-breaks and during a lunch. Actually, lunch will be phone shopping. I need a new cell phone. Mine has been a trusted companion for many years and is finally showing its age. Doesn't help that I dropped it a couple weeks back. A good fall it and a solid hit. Even its case couldn't completely protect it from impact. And now I can see inside of it. Very not good.

So I sit here vacillating between Verizon and Sprint, wondering which service to go with. Yes, I'm in contract with Verizon, so switching will cost me, but in the long run it might save me money (at least that's what I'm hoping). I figured it up. The people I talk to the most on my phone... not with Verizon. So yeah, that whole mobile-to-mobile or IN calling or whatever isn't doing me any good at all.

I'm sorry. This has become boring. It's become me talking about cell phone service. That happens when work consistently interrupts a post. Or when I'm hungry. The fact that my stomach is digesting itself is becoming distracting. Besides, I should blog about something that means something. Or at least tell a funny story. Or I could sign off and head to lunch. Yes, that's what I'll do.

But I'll leave you with this, a funny picture, rather than a story. Because really, what better way to finish a blog than with a good laugh, especially at my expense. :) It's actually much more humorous in person, but this'll do.
