day in a life

A new week, old thoughts

Rate this Entry
Well it's a Sunday and almost ten in the morning. My son is watching cartoons and I have been reading a bit and of course drinking coffee, a lot. It's odd how loneliness has nothing to do with who you are with. My brother is living with me for a while and I don't think I have been this alone in a long time. I like having him, I mean I do miss being alone at night and when my son is with his dad but it is very nice to have someone to talk to when I have something on my mind.

I like being alone, I like it a whole lot but now when I am rarely alone I feel like I want something more what I have... The mind is a very odd thing, always wanting something that isn't there. If I were in a relationship I would probably miss my alone time or find something else to feel bad about.

There is a contradiction in this cause I don't want to go out and meet anyone and whenever someone has told me they have 'the perfect guy' for me I say no thanks, mainly cause I don't think anybody else can find a guy for me. I have put up many obstacles in my head. The last time I was set up on a blind date it was my ex and even though we have a great kid together, he was in no way a good match for me. That is one obstacle, another is that my dad died when I was young and I can't imagine going through what my mom went through, she was 39 years old when she became a widow with three kids. Relationships are a huge risk, not only is there a possibility that you will be hurt, something like death or an accident could happen too.

I sometimes wish I were a Vulcan, pon farr only happens every 7 years (not that I am thinking in that exact way...) I could be logical and observant the rest of the time with no thought of this odd and complex thing called 'a man'.

Well school is going great so that's something...

    Hey Helga, at least you know you are consistent. Saturday morning coffee and a blog update. It's too bad you couldn't connect with someone over the internet. Then you can have a friend without the strings attached. Sorry your feeling lousy- have you considered the change in the weather as one possible contributing factor to feeling lousy? Anyway, enjoy the rest of the week.

    I know my mind always wants what isn't there. Sigh. Why can't I just be happy with what I have?

    Well, like one of my favorite author said: We are designed to want with nothing to want
