Regressing?
August 25, 2006I found myself roleplaying (RPing) a character this morning out of sheer boredom. Me, RPing, after nearly three years of RP inactivity. It’s good to see that most people in The Keep are still civil enough to RP with a new character. Although I miss having a good time with the oldies, it’s quite refreshing to be in the company of new people.
*sigh* I feel like I’m back in college. Heheh.
Oh, well. Once a Keepster, always a Keepster.

Heart in a twist
August 18, 2006I feel like my entire digestive system is tied into a freaking knot. My heart feels like it’s going to jump outta my chest, I can’t sleep right, I’ve lost my hearty appetite, and I think too much — way too much.
It’s not even just because of what happened recently, it’s what’s been happening to my life for the past couple of months. I get this strange feeling that I’m a magnet for disaster, that everything I touch turns to shit.
*sigh*
I feel sick.
Of Jobs and Daydreams
August 8, 2006I made a list of the jobs that I wouldn’t mind doing or jobs that I would actually like and jobs that I know I would hate or not enjoy doing. I do not know what my choices imply and I couldn’t read into them yet. I can’t see a pattern or anything drastically different between all of them. Right now I just know how I feel about each one.
Then I started daydreaming.
I’m working at a seaside bar in Mexico, serving drinks and chatting up tourists. I’m wearing flip-flops and the sand just slips between my toes everytime — but it doesn’t bother me. I have a nice tank top and a pair of beige shorts on, keeping me cool despite the weather. There’s a fresh-picked flower just above my ear and a seashell necklace hanging from my neck. I have the most incredible tan and a nice healthy body, made so by running by the shore every morning. I am happy and content with what I do and what I’ve become. After work I go home to my husband and we then make love before succumbing to sleep. The sound of breaking water and crashing waves fill my dreams and then I’m going to wake up the next morning to a brand new and wonderful day. I’m so happy that I wonder if it’s all a dream or if I had died and gone to heaven.
Another daydream.
I’m standing by the shore and the sun is setting. As it slowly lowers itself to kiss the horizon, the sky is painted with warm colors — red, yellow, orange — all coming together to make this spectacular afternoon show. The wind is blowing gently, caressing my cheeks, my neck, and my arms. There’s a feeling of calm and then I think that it couldn’t get any better than this. That finally, life is good.
I’m in therapy.
August 3, 2006Sadly, it’s not for my mental health. 
I just finished my first session of physical therapy at Palmdale Chiropractic yesterday afternoon. Dr. Rein basically touched my neck and knew right away which spots were in pain. He scheduled me for my first PT session shortly after meeting me and after asking questions about the accident.
Anyway, the therapy was really nice. They used the ultrasound on my neck and shoulders. It was really warm and it eased the pain in my neck. The girl who attended to me (I think her name’s Alexis) was commenting on the jerk that did this to us. She also mentioned that my shoulders are tight on both sides, and she also said, “Maybe you’re just naturally tense.” Hm. Anyway, after the ultrasound, she hooked me up to this machine that makes you feel like you’re in a jacuzzi. The machine sent vibrations into my skin and it was warm as well. I call it the Dry Jacuzzi now. Alexis covered me up with blankets so it was extra warm, but still comfortable.
After the session I felt really sleepy. I almost fell while I was getting off the therapy bed. Heheh.
I’m scheduled to be back a few hours from now. Dr. Rein said the sessions should be done in a span of three weeks, but I don’t think I’d be needing that much therapy. I’m not hurting as much anymore. We’ll see.
