Dreams, Glitter and Tears

It's allergy season, good GAWD! I came out today and my green car was yellow from all of the pollen on it, no joke. I decided to wash it. I got totally pwned by failing to wax it often though. It's had a growing area of failed clearcoat paint for the last year and when I washed it, some of my body paint flecked off showing the grey primer underneath. Just little tiny dots about the size of a pinhead but all the same... Damn. I waxed the living hell out of it and the area where that kid scraped his car against mine and took off clearcoat. I'm still irritated about that, his parents never even called me back after it happened.

I skated with the kids for a while today, as I do every day. I can get up and down the street a couple times now before having to take a break for my hip. It'll be a while before I can go around the neighborhood but I'm enjoying it anyway. I've realized how incredibly out of shape I am. Because of the muscle I've gained from skating, I've gained all of my lost weight back and then some. I've been sleeping a lot lately and it has caused me to lose some muscle so gaining it back really made a huge difference. I think that the new medication that the doctor has me trying for my going problem is interacting with my other meds and is making me tired. blah.

Partially out of my tiredness and partially because I really feel depressed and overwhelmed a lot lately, I've not been in the lair. I don't think it's really a big deal anyway, I was irritating a few people there... or it seemed. I think a break was in order. I've turned my attention to James and the kids more and have ocassionally popped in the other chatroom to say hello. The people there are still wary of me but have been so friendly. I'm so happy to have girls to talk to, L, W and R are really cool. I hope to eventually become a welcome addition to their little "girls rule, boys drool" group, hehe.
