This is Nikki on…introspection.
I slept pretty good last night, woke up at 10 and got ready…went out for a walk but I just couldn’t get “into” it, so I’ll be doing the elliptical later. I’m really not in the mood, but it’s days like this that really count! It would be so easy today to just say “screw it”, but then I wouldn’t be healthy. Why is being human so damn hard sometimes?Â
My cousin has been put on bed rest! Crazy, huh? I hope our other roomie steps in and starts doing some stuff around the house. It pisses me off to no end that he doesn’t do dishes. Does he think this is 1952 or something? Jesus. It’s when I have to deal with crap like this that I’m glad I don’t have a man… and then I get horny and wish my GIRLFRIEND was here! HA, got ya, didn’t I? You thought I was gonna say I wanted to get fucked by a guy with a big, hard, throbbing purple headed love warrior, right?
Well, sometimes that’s nice. I do miss cuddling with someone to watch movies and snuggling with a warm body while I wake up in the morning. I miss holding hands with someone or going back and forth over what we’re going to have for dinner. Seriously though, talking to you all does help a little bit with the loneliness. Human interaction is so vital to our spirits, and though that may not be the preferred form, it does provide some comfort.
Doing this job is one huge roller coaster. There are SO many benefits and so many drawbacks. At least I can’t say that my life is boring! And on that note, why didn’t anyone email me any suggestions on what I should have on my list of things to do before I die? There’s not one guy out there who reads this journal who’s experienced something they don’t think I should miss out on?
I have already done a few things that would make the list. I’ve been parasailing and white water rafting (though the rapids weren’t that intense, I do admit). I’ve traveled to South America and to all three North American countries (including 12 states and WA D.C…wow, that’s not very many, is it?) I think that my list is going to start out pretty basic. There are a lot of things I want to SEE. Going to all of the continents is definitely on the list. As for activities, I want to learn how to fly a plane, go sky diving, learn how to scuba dive (and do it in Australia), learn how to play the piano, go kayaking, do an overnight hiking trip, skinny dip in a tropical pool that has a waterfall, go back to school (not sure for what yet), give birth (yes, someday, I think I might want to), volunteer to do something that takes at least a week and is not in this country, name a road, plant a garden all on my own. I think that’s a good start.
Anyway! I might do some hiking this summer so maybe the overnight hiking trip will be crossed off soon. But I think the first thing on my list of places to see will be Alaska and the Northern Lights. I’m actually quite excited about that, even though it’s probably going to be awhile until I get to do it. It’s nice to have something to look forward to.
Well, except for the time that I’m workin’ my fanny off on my elliptical, I will be signed on all night tonight. As you can tell, I’m feeling a bit philosophical tonight, so I’m hoping for some good, intricate role play calls! Sounds fun to me! 
Shout outs for 3/14/06: David…where’s my picture? Come on now, you said you’d send it… I’m really brain storming a sci fi role play….I am! It’s gonna be super fun too, you watch. Just don’t expect me to have it ready next time you call unless it’s at least a few days! And a sorry to my European traveller….sorry we missed each other, I hope your trip is as wonderful as it can possibly be.
I am the first to comment…I took your virginity…..total sweetness. Now…post more often!!!!!!
