Why the urge to update this? It is the middle of the night, and I am wide awake. My hours of sleep are by no means normal or standard. I grab pieces of sleep here and there. Up early enough to have it still be dark out, and sleeping while the sun is still bright in the sky. A writer's work is never done, and that is what I am.

A long time since I've even logged in here. When I made this blog five years ago, I didn't think it would last a week. Here it sits five years later with way too many memories attached to it. I hate that it just sets here, but time is short, and I don't remember this blog first anymore. I even forget my twitter account half the time!

The group led by Jared Leto. I've been a fan of their music since I first heard Echelon played over the end credits of The Core, a movie most of you might not be familiar. I fell in love with the song though, and I am more than excited for their next record, This Is War.

This cover performed live owned me, and after just watching this video for the song, I only love it anymore.

The video is from the movie The Time Traveler's Wife, which is an amazing novel, and I loved what they did with the movie adaption. Of course, I'm a fan of Eric Bana, so that helped some. The movie had me in tears for a good thirty minutes as it came to its conclusion.

I go through months where I have so much I want to say, but that hasn't happened in a long time. I met someone back over Christmas. We connected, and things seemed to go quite well for a few months, and all of that changed this summer. I'm not even sure how. Too much stress. Too many problems.

This blog has been there for me since 2005. I've gone through employment with various sites since that time, but this blog hasn't gone anywhere. It is only the time that was lacking. The time I put elsewhere to focus on other things. Now I need to put my focus back here.

Life has been keeping me busy lately. Today I thought my cat had broke my computer. I came home from an afternoon out with my dad, and my computer wouldn't turn out. He had somehow loosened the wire for my monitor from the back of my computer.

I'm still here. January is just not a good month for me at all. In fact, it is safe to say that I hate the month of January completely. Although my birthday is in the mix, it is just a bad month. It wasn't so bad this month, but still not great. I always breathe this whole sigh of relief when the month is over. So I'm still here.

Then the men in the house caught colds, and they decided to share them with me. Yes, I know! How thoughtful of them. That explains why I have been so missing in action the last couple of weeks.

I was sick the last time I wrote in here, and then Monday morning I woke up sick with the flu. I thought I might even have to go to the emergency room or doctor at some point. I was that sick.

I didn't feel well at all. I did what I needed to do, and then I grabbed a DVD and laid in bed off and on until I felt better. Well, at least I had a new DVD to keep me occupied. Yesterday, I received the box set for The 4400 in the mail to review for Celebrity Today. I'd heard a lot about the series, but I had never found the time to watch it.

The election calls are coming, and those won't stop until election day. The advertising ones get to me the most. There are ways to stop the calls, but does it really work? Today, I found this site that lets you report phone numbers you get called from, Report Annoying Callers.

I used to love Halloween as a kid. I tried to go trick or treating in costume until my 18th birthday.

Some did little spooky performances, and that was the main reason I kept going out each and Regina Avaloshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05008247353908385168noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11659929.post-14046292652790777942008-10-13T15:22:00.001-07:002008-10-13T15:22:20.870-07:00Just Another Manic MondayDoes anyone remember that song?
