Rolling on the River

Life is still rolling along, I'm still sans a computer and struggling to cope without. I'm also still as single as a solitary tumbleweed, blowing along a quiet stretch of desert highway. But I'm coping. What else can one do, other than try to kick ass and flail furiously at the negative forces? I'm still shadowboxing with life's trials and tribs, but the best thing is, despite all the annoyances, I'm actually good. I'm in a good place. I wont tout the whole "some people struggle or having it worse" cliche, but it applies. I don't think I could say that about a year or so ago. I allowed myself to become side swiped and bamboozled by a few "haters" and then overwhelmed by stress and tragedy. It was debilitating and left me confused. Turns out invinicibility is nothing more than a mere illusion, apparent only in comic books. A few angry outbursts and tantrums here and there, I'm none too worse for wear. I'm not devitalized, and that is what counts. I said I would not blog from work, but screw it. I need to do this. By any means necessary. I like it. 'nuff said. Soon enough, I'll be in the comfort of my apartment doing this again, pants strewn carelessly on the floor... glass of vino within reach of my fingertips, as I tap away furiously... airing a load or two of my filthy laundry.
Random side note: I've been using an amazing product, I found at CVS Pharmacy called, Callus Away callus remover. You put its contents right the callus (in my case, on the back of my foot), let it set for 3-5 minutes, and simply file it away with the included emory board, a pumice stone, or foot file. It works and I love it. Particularly since summer is practically here, and I've no desire to walk around with busted looking feet. That's it.

Meh. I blog from work. I know I shouldn't but my connection at home sucks - and I usually do it here. It is quite a necessary outlet. Glad you're feeling better. There's this stuff called Pretty Feet that is also awesome at sloughing the dead skin off your feet. No one should ever have busted up feet. Ever.

It's good to feel like you're in a solid position in your life, you know? I'm excited about the day you get a computer at your crib. I know it will be very soon...

I'm definitely gonna have to get my hands on the products that you and Jessucka have mentioned...I don't have busted feet, but I certainly don't want to run the risk of getting them this summer...I don't want crusty stumps for tootsies!

And...I blog from work all the time, the thing is I always forget to send the pics I have in my computer at home here, so my posts usually don't have the real pictures I wanted to post. sucks. lol
