wishful thinking

I am especially cranky today. There could be several reasons why. For one, I stayed up too late last night. The real estate agent took us out to look at four more houses, and we got home around ten o'clock. And you know I just can't go right to sleep after walking in the door, so I ended up staying awake until about 11:30. I know I sound like a wuss, but I do get up at 5:00 a.m. The other reason for crankiness is probably due to the slightly painful and annoying burning sensation that seems to be surrounding my rib cage. I have had this on and off now for a week or more. It feels like heartburn, except it's lower in the stomach area, and it moves around. Oh, what the fuck? Who decided I needed ANOTHER stomach problem? I don't want to go to the doctor yet, unless it gets worse. I'm afraid that he or she will tell me that it's an ulcer. Or worse, not know what it is, and want to snake a tube down my throat. I know the doctors lil' games! I've had vague, unreconizable stomach problems before. I know what the want to do. They want blood, and uh...samples, and cameras shoved in weird places.

Well, as much fun as all of that was a few years ago, I believe I'll pass.

The house hunt is coming along pretty well. So far, we have looked at nine houses, and we will see a few more tomorrow. It is pretty exciting, and a bit frustrating as well. I think that when we find "the one" we will probably know it right away.

So, here is a list of my wishes:

- I wish that Moe wasn't drinking from my water glass right now. I'm thirsty, and now I will have to get up and get fresh water. I know his mouth is probably pretty clean, but I often see him bathing his ball sack with his tounge, so, you know.

- I wish that I knew how to speak German. It wouldn't really come in handy on a day to day basis, but I could annoy..I mean impress people with my skills by using it during mundane conversations.

- I wish I had the secret to keeping my skin completely acne free at all times.

- I wish that sugar was an essential mineral needed for strong bones, but could only be adequitely absorbed through the consumption of chocolate chip cookies.

- I wish I could correctly spell the word "adequitely". I'm not getting up for the dictionary. I'm too tired.

- I wish that I could turn off my brain whenever I wanted to.

- I wish that Andrew would have a big Diaryland party somewhere in the U.S. so we could all meet. I'll bring a covered dish.

- I wish I cared to learn more about computers.

- I wish that other people found my dreams as weird and interseting as I do.

- I wish that Yankee Candles were less expensive. (I want cookies and cream! yummy.)

I suppose that's enought wishing for one day.
