Privacy of the Mind

Thirteen stream of consciousness thoughts in no particular order

1. When I cut the grass, I often imagine the blade violently coming apart and slicing off my foot… I may watch too many horror movies.
2.  I’m thinking about driving out to the coast this weekend for a photo shoot… I refuse to let high gas prices ruin my road tripping fun!
3. Even though I normally pay Matt to cut the grass, I really enjoy doing it myself… I love the smell of the yard when I’m done.
4. I stopped using Facebook for a while and found I really missed the social interaction aspect of it… if you’re on FB, feel free to send me a friend request!
5. One of my greatest prides is that fact my son Matt is exploring his artistic side… writing, photography and graphic design much like his dad. He has the potential to go much, much further than I ever did.
6. I just went and stood outside for a few minutes… it’s cool and beautiful this morning. High clouds with patches of blue sky. I think I may need to go for a ride this evening now that it stays light much later.
7. I need to expand my circle of blog friends. I don’t know why but I crave social contact like a vampire craves blood lately. I treasure those little interactions throughout my day that remind me I’m part of a bigger picture.
8. Speaking of vampires… I think I could pull it off. I find necks very attractive already.
9. Did I mention the kids are taking off with their mom for Hawaii tomorrow? Three weeks they’ll be gone… I’m cat sitting for Kiko so you can expect a bunch of cat photos in the near future.
10. Is it weird that I have no desire to go to places like Hawaii? I don’t get the attraction. Then again, I hate the sun. Damn UV rays. And I don’t like crowds… Hawaii seems like a crowded place to me. Damn crowds.
11. Vampires hate UV rays too… I’m just saying.
12. I really need to change the audio cue on my phone that plays when I get e-mail. It’s um… not very cool. In fact, my children mock me whenever it goes off. That’s not good, not good at all.
13. I’m seriously digging Alkaline Trio lately. Dark themes, great music. I’m pretty sure vampires are into Alkaline Trio too.
