My Life Thus Far

I Took A Bath With Fiona Apple and The Dixie Chicks

Well, not really. But, I did listen to their CD's while I
was in the tub. Fiona Apple's Tidal CD is a throwback to
my teenaged years. That was my soundtrack. I identified
with every song. I still do on some levels. I don't
usually like country, but I heard that new Dixie Chicks
song, Not Ready To Make Nice and I felt like they were
talking about my life. Even though I know it has
everything to do with what the little one said about the
president and the backlash she received for it. I'd be
embarrassed if he was from my home state, too.

I went for that walk I mentioned last entry. Remember when
I used to walk every day? Well, I don't do that anymore. I
run a few miles on a shock absorbing treadmill and use an
elliptical machine, which isn't even touching the ground.
My poor feet didn't like the 4 mile walk I used to do all
the time. Granted, I'm in much better shape now and
finished it in a fraction of the time, without even
breaking a sweat. My feet were still tired, though. So, I
decided to stop by Wal-mart to pick up some more
aromatherapy bath salts. I figured my entire body could
use a good soak. Well, 30 minutes later, not only did I
have the bath salts, I had organic hemp bronzing
moisturizer, Diurex, Annie's gummy vitamins and the two
aforementioned CD's. $50 when all I'd intended to buy
would have cost $5. I need to stop the emotional shopping.
The Navy doesn't pay nearly enough to cover all the
emotional shopping I need to do.

The bath was great by the way. I'm starting to feel like a
fish. I'm happiest soaking in a scalding hot tub of salty
water. It's almost like all my troubles just melt away. My
muscles relax, I zone out and I feel good. An hour later
and I'm ready to go to sleep.

Can you believe I didn't get not one single e-mail today.
Where is everyone? Not my husband, not my Dad, not a total
stranger. No one. Doesn't that suck. How many of you out
there go an entire day without hearing from someone you
know? That just goes to show you how sad my existance is.
I guess I'll have to be the one to reach out.

I seriously just about fell asleep. That's my cue to exit.
Ciao until tomorrow.
