Please Give Me Something

Are you getting the feeling that perhaps things are too good to be true, dear Gemini? Stay grounded, my friend! It's real, and it's happening to you. Don't let your insecurities create resistance; otherwise you might unconsciously sabotage one of the best times of your life. Believe in yourself!

I seriously believe in horoscopes more every day. How could they not be true?

Oh my good heavens, I don’t even know where to begin today. I once believed I had quite a talent to string sentences together to sound half intelligent, but over the past couple of days I am really being to wonder if English really is my first language.

On Friday night our Book Club got together to finally put Gone With The Wind to rest and watch the movie. (Don’t tell them I haven’t finished reading it.) Surprisingly, after reading the very detailed book, the movie is absolutely atrocious. Even with a running time of four hours, the movie seems to show only small snippets of the story, and has little to no character development. I think it is time a remake is done; however, it would have to be a mini-series to cover all of the important events thoroughly enough. We did have a fun time watching it together and stayed up much too late tell tales of absolute horror.

We did pick a new book, “The Five People You Will Meet In Heaven”, none of us had ever read it, so we thought it would fun to experience something new together. From the few pages I have read, it seems okay despite the fact it is written in a very odd style. But strangely, I miss Scarlett already.

The rest of the weekend is too much a blur. I stayed up much too late, and got up earlier than I really would have ever wanted, ate a lot of Mexican food and was unable to make any sort of intelligent conversation.

I am trying to keep my head still with me, and am not so patiently waiting to see what will happen the rest of the week and hopefully month.

One day I will tell the whole story. Just wait until it is in the not so recent past.

Grateful for everything I have but don’t deserve.
Learning how to take a compliment.
Finally stopped waiting for the bus.
Wishing, I could have come up with something, anything more intelligent.
Delightfully amazed.
Trying to keep it all together.
Trying my best not to throw up.

As Always,

Throw up?
I still encourage you to finish the book, it is really good. I think it might help with your current situation. I haven't even cracked the new book, but I'm way excited it is so small!

Break the Fast is on Sunday and I'm so going to be attending! Yes, it's my first time! I so plan on watching and following your example of how to work the room.

Atrocious?! Ohhhh Denise, where shall I go?! What shall I do?! I can't think about that now! I'll think about that tomorrow!
