Mucous and Stuff

So, I know I should be in bed right now. Seeing as it's 3am.

But you know what?

There is this little green monster - aka: mucous- residing in my chest, my nose.
Mucous can come at such unfortunate times in life. Such as right now, when I'm supposed to
be sleeping so I can get rid of this cold that has been hanging on for dear life for the past
3 weeks. And I guess a little bit of insomnia has decided to join me in my quest of getting
rid of the cold from hell. Which, as its turned out, doesn't aid in exorcising colds.

Anyway, at work today, I kept couching - as usual - and little bits of loogie would land on my
computer screen. Thank heavens for Clorox wipes. But all this hacking and gagging got me to
thinking about my current Utah situation. My cold wouldn't be as bad as it is now if I lived
in California and I wouldn't have crappy 20 degree weather to complain about. Also, I think
my seasonal depression wouldn't be nearly as bad.

Oh, who am I kidding? I couldn't think of a million reasons to move back to California
and to get the heck outta dodge. Things may be a changin' in the near future.
At least that's what I'm hoping for anyway.

Hooray!

I've lost 9.2 pounds in the last 6 days. I'm excited! The picture really doesn't have anything to do with weight loss per se, but it does have the word reduce on it and I took the picture, so I'm putting it up. :-]

Sleepiness becomes me

*sigh* I miss the ocean. Not really the Atlantic Ocean, although I have to say that the East Coast has some beautiful beaches. But the Pacific Ocean will always be home to me. I miss it. I miss the hot sand, the coconut scented sunscreen and tanning oil, the salty sea air, the random volleyball games, the hot surfer boys. I miss it all. Its my favorite place where you can watch the sunset while looking out over the water. Its amazing! Sure, it gets hot, but really? When you're there at the beach looking at the water, taking it all in, it doesn't really matter how hot it is. I've always loved the water. It has a calming effect over me like lavender oil in a steamy bath. I wish I could just be a beach bum for the rest of my life. I'd take photos and sell them to support my needs. Kind of like what Thoreau did at Walden Pond. I really only need the simple things in life and the beach and ocean. I could get along without my phone and definitely without my alarm clock. Just ...

Hooray for Holi!

My friend Kim and I will be going to celebrate Holi with our fellow Hindus today. I'm not sure if half the people going today actually know what Holi is except for the fact that it is fun. Go to this link and learn about Holi! *Pictures will be forthcoming!* **ETA: So, there was a HUGE accident on the freeway on the way to Spanish Fork yesterday and being the impatient driver that I am, decided to go around the accident. We went through Springville and Mapleton to avoid the accident. Well, not knowing what exit we were at, we weren't sure where we were and completely missed the festival. I was a little bummed. Well, a lot bummed. Kim and I went up the Spanish Fork Canyon instead to a town that was flooded years ago. Hopefully Kim won't hate me forever for missing the festival...
