ode to the mut

First of all let me apologize for my insanely over dramatic and ...dare I say...depressing last entry. It was just one of those days.....everyone has them....I'm over it now......I've had great sleep the last couple of nights. Anywhoo.....on to more important stuff.....I've got the cutest dog. He's a mut.....but he's my mut. He is the only dog I've ever had that is actually trained to do things. For example.......he's house broken, (don't act like that's not a big deal either! after cleaning up numerous "accidents" you learn to appreciate it.) Come to think of it, though, I'm pretty sure he knew what he was doing in several of those accidents, b/c one time he accidentally used the bathroom on my lil brother's foot......then looked up at him as to say......oops. Trained thingy #2.......he can sit. Yep. that's an accomplishment for a mut.

That's about it.Oh wait I forgot...........he knows how to ride a unicycle.......yeah that's right.......we were gonna go on the road with it........but, see what had happened was......

Anywhoo..........as you may or may not know I'm a fantabulous poet and I wrote a lil somethin somethin for my furry friend for all of his efforts to learn how to go to the bathroom outside......here goes

Ode to the mut

you are compiled of many mixed traits

cute, cuddly, and you can skate

ok, so I made that last bit up

nonetheless you're still a cute pup

with long lanky legs and a bulldog face

you would really fit in if you started a profile on myspace

ok, that last line was really quite sad

but you see i'm a scientist, not a poet........my bad

I'm so proud that you're not making anymore puddles in my floor

Now you've just gotta learn to quit barking at 4:00

i'm really awful at writing a spur of the moment sonnet

but the point is i really love my mut.........dog gone it. (you rhyme something with sonnet)

That was for you reading pleasure and enjoyment. I'm pretty sure everyone is a little dumber for reading it..................and I think that's great.

i wish i may, i wish i might

My wish tonight is to go to sleep and just wake up about 8 hours later. I know that sounds strange, but I wish it with all my might. Have you ever dreamed about someone or something every night.....and it was something that you really wanted? Having a dream like this every once in a while is okay, but when you dream about it every night, you just end up a little depressed every morning when you wake to realize....once again.....it was only a dream. There was someone I felt such a deep connection with at college and I really thought it would be a relationship that would last a life time. Instead, it fell to the wayside due to a series of poor decisions on my part. Basically, I ruined it. Now, several months later after having ample time to get over it, I find myself still dreaming about how things were and could have been if only I hadn't have been so foolish. It's really a terrible feeling.....regret. I just wish that I could just forget about it. However, I still feel the imprints that were made on my heart.... every night in my dreams. One day I hope that all the memories will fade as a glowing ember until they finally burn out. Then perhaps my dreams will once again be peaceful.

Sweet dreams.......Candis

for a narcoleptic.....I sure am up late

I can not sleep. It's sooooo frustrating too, b/c I know tomorrow I'm gonna be yawning all day, but I have so much on my mind right now, I just can't make myself go to sleep. It is so incredibly quiet in my house right now. The tapping of the keys sounds like elephants trodding through the place. (By the way.....how many cool  points do I get for using the word "trodding"?) Anywhooo, I just thought I would share the fact that a diagnosed narcoleptic is suffering from insomnia right now. I really find that humorous. I try to find the humor in all situations..........well........most situations. This next statement is going to be very random.....and it is quite possibly going to be linked with the fact that I am sleep deprived........but tonight on my way home from work I saw something so cute. A baby deer walked out in the middle of the road and I had to slam on my breaks to keep from hitting it. It just stood there and looked at me.........I mean, seriously, I was at a dead stop in the road.......then it turned around and started bucking like a horse, and then ran off. I literally laughed out loud. Then I decided to start driving again before I caused a wreck. It was sooooooo stinkin cute! Okay, I warned you that that was going to be random.

Anyways...........I guess I'm going to continue with my efforts to go to sleep............seriously though, if anyone really knows me, they know that I can fall into REM sleep with the blink of an eye,,,,,so the fact that I'm wide awake right now is an anomalie. (again....look at me....I'm trying to use big words..........tell me you're impressed.)

Peace out homies

( by the way....that's my name backwards and that's how I used to sign it when I was in like the 4th grade b/c I thought it would throw people off.........just thought I'd share that.......)

CRAZY

I'm finding it harder and harder to write new entries. I could blame it on lack of time, which is a huge factor, or my lil bro, who is ALWAYS on the internet, but actually I just never really have that much to say. I decided to write, though, b/c I ran in to some old friends at IHOP tonight and it was sooooooo random. I usually go straight home after work, but my friend that I work with was havin some crazy cravings for IHOP, so I went with her.......kicking and screaming. Seriously, do you know what pancakes smothered in butter and syrup will do to your diet.....it's not pretty. Not pretty at all. Anywhooo, despite the fact that all my efforts of exercise and good nutrition went down the drain, I'm sooo glad I went. I ran in to some of my very dear friends that I went to Venezuela with last year! They're not even from around here, so to see them in IHOP in Tupelo, MS was so incredibly random. Makes me wonder. It did my heart so much good to see them. I've missed them all so much. Anyways, I just thought I'd share that. I think it's really cool how God can bring old friends back together.............even if it did start with a craving for IHOP.

~~~Candis

Thought I'd write somethin for giggles. Haven't really got anything to say, but that's never stopped me before. I'm just gonna write what's on my mind...................It's cold today........I can't wait for Saturday.................I don't want to go to work..............An old crush from like 3  years ago is on my mind.............I miss my choir peop's...........I think I'll eat a bowl of Speacial K............I'd rather have some IHOP.........but my butt needs Speacial K............still thinkin about old times with old crush........okay that's enough rambling.
