getting into the groove

   I am starting to get into the groove of things for work. I'm trying to get to bed at a descent time as so I can be well rested for waking up early for work. At least I'm in bed at midnight. Still working on the getting to sleep part. But at least tonight I'm not as wired as normal. I should be able to pass to sleep soon enough. Work is interesting. I am liking it. Today I went home after work and got some stuff around the house done that I wanted to take care of. It is strange being so busy all the time, it leaves very little time to relax, yet I find when that time does come, I cannot relax. So, in that respect, I'm rather glad to be kept busy. Besides, it feels good to be getting things done, and feeling somewhat productive. Any more than sitting down to eat with a little TV, and maybe watching a show on TV, I just can't stand still. Geesh, I ate dinner in the kitchen tonight, standing in front of the sink watching the bigscreen from the kitchen. I didn't see the point in even bringing dinner to the TV table. I've always really been like that. I can only relax when things are just the way they need to be, and nothing needs to be done. Hence, I don't relax. Well, I'll have to work on that. Have to work on a lot of things, but there is time. The future is infinite.

   A few specifics that happened today... Sean called me while I was out at lunch. We are going to a Panthers game on Thursday. This should be fun, as I like hockey. I think I've been to an average of one game per season. In fact, there is the photo album of the Panther's inaugural game that I got to go to. I've also been to a Marlins game not too long ago - I went with my sister. I think this was the only time I've been to a ballgame without my dad and his father, my grandfather. I remember the times we all went to a ballgame. It was never a big fancy game, just something at the Lockheart Stadium. I think it was the Yankee's practice games. Soo long ago.. I didn't know the rules then. They tried to explain it to me.. I didn't get it. I still don't know i t all.. Ah, well.. As for football, bla. It's not my sport. (shrug) Well, anyway, he asked if I wanted to go rollerblading with him today. Well, I had to pass because I was planning on staying a little longer than usual, and I would have had to go home to get my 'blades and a change of clothes. Perhaps next time, with a little notice. Also, I need to figure those things out. Last time I used them, they nearly killed my feet. Perhaps I put them on wrong. I should try them again, and my old pair as well - get rid of them if they don't work right. But it would be nice to get back on the blades again...
Also, I think I broke the laptop yesterday morning. Sort of, anyway. I picked it up by the screen (stupid) and heard a snap. Now, the hinges are very lose. The screen will drop back or closed if not careful. I'll crack her open later and see what I can do... But at least it is still useable. Things to keep me busy. :) The waterbed is reassembled too. Ropelight and all. It just needs to be filled now, I wasn't going to start that tonight. It also needs a good cleaning. Resudual wetness from old mattress water caused the mattress to mildew considerably. Needs good cleaning - carefully as to not get sick doing so. I may enjoy using it myself as an alternate bed to sleep in now and then. It has helped in the past to go back to my old bed I grew up on. :) At least for a change now and then. I should be able to entertain guests soon, too. And free up a lot more of the garage too. Ahh, work to do. :) It's all good. I'm just taking it easy, bit by bit. No immediate goals or dates to hit. Just waiting... Letting some time pass being employed to catch up a bit, and start inquiring into possibly a refinance of the house. We'll see... But at this point, I have no deadlines set for myself. That is probably one of the "oddities" I have been experiencing lately. No "oh, I wanted to get this done" type things. Just a long list of "get done, sooner or laters" Laundry, not even that gets a specific time... It is all a work in progress. But things are working out. We'll see what happens. It is 1:17am right now, and I'm actually getting very sleepy-tired now, so I should try and sleep. Besides, I've started babbling many words ago. So, that's enough for now.
