“The deep end is where the grownups play. It's where the monsters hang out, and the treasure too. Sometimes it's hard to tell the difference, but you need to go there and see for yourself. Even if you don't swim, or you fear water, or you love terra firma beneath your feet. Sooner or later, you'll have to dive straight into the middle of the deep. Remember, Venus was born from the sea, not the shallow end of the pool.”

"And I think you need to stop following misery's lead
Shine away, shine away, shine away
Isn't it time you got over how fragile you are?
We're all wait, waiting
On your supernova.
Cause that's who you are
And you've only begun to shine."
-Anna Nalick's "Shine"

Random Tuesday Thoughts, part 578



The Fourth of July really messed me up. I spent all day thinking that today was Monday. Kylie and barely saw any fireworks last night, as there was a nasty thunderstorm in our area, and I assumed that fireworks would be postponed until tonight. Wrong. She came rushing inside shortly after we got home in the late afternoon to usher me outside to see this:



Way cooler than fireworks, although we did manage to see a few pop over those same trees a little while later. Seeing that rainbow is the luckiest I have felt in weeks.

I deactivated my FaceBook page yesterday. I'll probably end up reactivating it soon enough, but I felt that it was probably best if my impending emotional breakdown not be publicized for all 131 of my friends to see. Not only have I been a big ball of stress lately, but CVS managed to lose all of my prescriptions when asked to transfer them to Winston. My hormones went a three day bender while the pharmacy tech tried to dig her head out of her ass long enough to locate my pills. Thank God it wasn't anti-psychotics that they lost. Anyhoo, my reason for deleting the account is that I just need to be away from the constant contact of other people. It sounds bizarre, but I feel kinda smothered by all of the updates. If I could figure out how to get rid of my cell phone, I would do it. I think I was born to be a hermit.

When I picked Kylie up from camp today, I asked her how her day was. The response I got was, "Everything was fine until I lost my underwear..." I guess we've all had days like that, haven't we?

We had a double rainbow here a couple times this summer. They're still so cool to look at....even at 29! Hope all your meds are all fixed up now!
