Life is like a bowl of cherries

Well, I've (sort of) gotten over my last post. Over the weekend I decided I would handle this one of two ways. A) I really truly get over it or B) I ignore it. I'm leaning toward the ignoring. And, you know, sometimes that makes the issue feel smaller. And sometimes it makes it bigger. But I don't feel like I can talk with the main players about this so . . . yeah. Amanda says that's not a good sign. Amanda's a smart cookie. In the long run, the only real thing I've decided is that I don't want this to make me cry at lunch anymore. I quit. I'm an adult and I can get through this, whatever it is.

So, on my way to getting over being slighted, excluded, and generally left alone, I decided I'd think of the good things that came out of last week. There were actually a couple.

-- Wrote about a page of some sort of story which I shared with Mrs. Neiffer. We both believe it to have potential and I am very happy with the fact that I got what was in my head down on paper. Wrote an ending for it on Sunday. Like it as well. Shared again. Liked again. So, now have the beginning and ending to a probably short story. Yea me!

-- Got my practice speech/presentation done and out of the way. And it was not a total disaster!

-- Got DVD of Into the Woods. Of all the musicals I've seen, this is one of my favorites.

-- Bought Equal Rites by Terry Pratchett and The Sandman: A Game of You by Neil Gaiman as consolation for crappy week. Read NG in a couple of hours. Looooove him.

An a more freaked-out kinda note-- May 9th is in a couple of weeks!! Aaaaaah!!!!!
