I spend a fair amount of time during the day on a computer. And by fair amount, I mean at least 8 hours. Every day.
I often get excited, have random thoughts, or simply want to express something, anything, during my days. I tend to do this simply by updating my Gmail chat status in my Gmail inbox. Yes, Gmail is pretty much open all day for me.
I find that I often have a thought and then that is followed by an urge to update that status once again. Sometimes I have too many at once to accommodate. If I JUST updated, I want to give that status some live time, rather than already moving onto the next. So I've been just keeping track of some of those status urges and am now sharing them here in this blog. :)
I am excited for life. It holds great things.
I am excited for my new work computer to arrive.
My new favorite Brendan James song is "The Lucky Ones."And I am officially in love with his new album.
I am excited to get down to business and tackle some projects I've been putting off.
I am apparently excited about a lot of things lately.
I have amazing friends and amazing people who always randomly want to be my friends. Seriously, these people are awesome, I just don't understand why they care so much about me.
I need to be more like people like that.
I am loving having new music to listen to again.
I am so looking forward to General Conference.
Things just get in the way. I want less things and more meaning in life.
I am so glad I can listen to the Brendan James album. I'm loving it.
"This time I gotta get it right, gotta get it right now, gotta get it right this time. My life is passing me by, I've got to take a deep breath and get it right."
I love that my sister sent me an e-mail reminding me of the greatness that is Pickles comics.
I now know how to respond when people question me about not liking animals. I can learn from Gramps in Pickles: "I wouldn't say I don't like cats. I'm just not particularly fond of their existence." http://comics.com/pickles/2010-07-10/
I can't be annoyed by traffic jams when they give me at least a few minutes to listen to this album all the way through.
I'm kinda obsessed with the "Boys will be Girls" YouTube videos. "I just put w, for whatevs." is currently my favorite line.
I am so grateful for life and the knowledge that Heavenly Father loves me.
I'm reading a book about the flaws in our thinking patterns...so far I have yet to agree with the book. Is my thinking flawed? Isn't everyone's?

That comic is hilarious. I totally feel the same way. I'll have to use that line. Does our dislike for animals come from the Jenks side somehow. I enjoyed all of your status updates. :)
My favorite thing is that you kept track of these things. I just picture you writing them down in a little notebook that you keep by your computer. And picking it up every 2 minutes to write something else.
Secondly, why is Pickles so good? I think it's really the only one I actually enjoy reading. The others I just read out of obligation although I do skip all the lame new ones. And I'm totally using the cat line! I don't know how we came from having a million cats growing up to not really caring for them.
Thirdly, your love of music just makes me happy. I've been listening to the cd you make me pretty much nonstop in the car since you gave it to me because it's the only decent music I have.
Fourthly, I don't know if this qualifies as a comment anymore cuz it's so long!
Loveyou!
Ruthie! Thanks for your "comment" however long it is.
I just decided that I love comments. So thank you Katie and everyone else as well.
Pickles. It's the only one I think is funny as well. And I don't even get it in my paper. So sad. And I'm so glad I found that gem about cats for everyone...:) Yes, it is weird that we grew up with like 13 cats.
Ruthie, I'll also try to make you a new cd to share some more music. :)
