It's eleven o'clock on a Friday night. My son is asleep after watching 'Winnie the Pooh' I just love Eeyore, he is the best part of the gang. When I was a teen some friends of mine analyzed the gang and we figured out that some of us fit the personalities of the pooh gang, I was Eeyore, my best friend Piglet. Anyway that's not what is on my mind.

I went to all my classes this week and I only had coffee with the girls three times and the last time (today) I only stayed for 30 minuets. That was all I had in me and I left feeling fine. I only saw my mom twice this week and I think that is enough. I have studied a lot this week and in general it has been good.

I have no idea what to do this weekend, I need to read as much as I can but that will depend on a few things. My son won't sit quiet all day while I read, not that I want him too. I need to find the perfect blend of doing something fun with him and reading while he plays or watches tv. It's a tricky thing.... I just want to have fun with him, a smart person would stop hanging at the computer and go read, maybe I'll do that...

I am reading I book I am not enjoying, at least not yet, it's called 'Gods without men' by Hari Kunzru. Gotta finish it by Monday cause I need to read Voltaire and a book called 'Hounded' too. Then it's Easter and then the semester is almost over and I have essays and test then work, really don't want to work. but it will be OK.

I am trying to figure out how much uncertainty I can live with and I think as long as I have a few things under control I can have some uncertainty. I feel like these past two years have been like a leap in personal growth and every now and then I feel like I am landing (like now) but that is just for a while and then I am up in the air again hoping I'll land on my feet and not my face. I am not saying it's a bad thing I am just saying it's not the best thing.

I feel like I can depend on my self for almost anything and the rest I'll figure out. The only problem (not a problem I guess but wandering) is that I think I know what I want I just can't/won't/don't wanna/do wanna figure out if I should right now. This sentence made no sense but it still says everything I am thinking and not thinking. I think I make things very confusing for myself.

I'm gonna go read 'Gods without men' and stop thinking about what I should or should not do.

Oh at least I kept my first promise to myself.

    "I think I know what I want I just can't/won't/don't wanna/do wanna figure out if I should right now..."that is the best sentence ever Helga! I'm not sure I entirely understand it but I think it says everything I am thinking and not thinking, too!

    Congrats on keeping your commitment to yourself!

    I like that sentence too.

    I know what you mean about trying to balance with your son. It's tough.

    The notion of certainty is all an illusion anyway, though I guess as you suggest there are levels that go with it.

    Sounds like you're going to be busy. Good luck.

    yeah sometimes things that don't make sense, make the most sense...

    I guess I know how my weekend will be, my so threw up last night and I spent a good part of the night cleaning floors and walls. hope he'll feel better tomorrow.
