Just killing some time since I have an hr yet to go till I get off work. First thing on the agenda is caffeine. Man oh man, why is it sometimes that stuff doesn't kick in till like 2hrs after you eat or drink products that has it in it? At least thats what it does to me. I normally get home around 9am (after my hr and a half drive to and from work -_-), mess around on the compy for a half hr to an hr and then go to bed and TRY to get up around 3pm. That hasn't been happening all to much lately. I tried to cut back on my caffeine intake and I must have been stressing out about something cause I kept tossing and turning and felt like I couldn't shut my eyes for the life of me to sleep. I should've just stayed up, put my clean laundry away like a good girl, and then hit the hay later. But nooooo.... I never listen to myself.
As for sleep, I have no clue what is with me for the past month or so but I feel as if I'm sleeping my life away. If I have a good morning when I get off work that I'm really sleepy and conk out once I hit the sheets, then I can get up when I normally want to. But lately, its like the alarm goes off around 3'ish, I turn it off and lay back in bed. By the time I open my eyes its going on 5pm O__O which leaves me only 2 and a half hrs to have any time to myself before I go to work. Once I do get up though, I get straight into that lazy mode. Check my email and watch tv (even though half the time nothing is on). I'm 25yrs old and have so much free time on my hands, I don't understand why I can't do something with it. I try really. But I think my problem is that I could have a short attention span or just get bored really quick. One day I could be in the mood to draw and will only last for like a week. Then I get my nose into a good book that I can't put down but once I finish, I try to read another book but takes forever to get that one done. I move onto getting the fic writing bug to bite me in the ass and I could write half a fanfic in a few days to a couple of weeks but the problem is, I get out of the mood and just can't finish it till close a yr later -_-. I really want to learn how to do a website but all the stuff I've been looking at in order to learn the tags and stuf that goes into it just makes my mind say "see ya! onto something else please." If it looks like drivel to me, then it won't hold my attention and hence why I feel like I won't get anywhere if and whenever I try to do a site. I got the space for it, I got the time to do it but the ideas and brain power just doesn't want to participate. I truely don't see how I made it through all 12yrs of school. I barely passed elementary, I was so lazy when it came to doing homework or pay attention. Jr High was a bit better but I think it went a bit more smoothly from 9th on up. I also I wished I had the energy I use to have when I was 15-17 yrs old. Then again we still had the dairy farm and I had to work my ass off since I had no choice in the matter. Was in the Army for 3yrs from the age of 18-21, thought the 3 yrs would never end, and even that left me being bored. I had a shitty job in the Army and even during that time I felt like I couldn't keep myself occupied enough. I try to do active things around the house and TRY to do things outside but living here in Texas its really hard to do. Too damn hot in the late spring to summer and the winter has its moments where it gets pretty nippy (worse I think than when I was born and raised in PA) There really isn't anything to do where I live besides perhaps riding my bike IF and WHEN my hubby puts new tires on the damn thing. There is no smooth areas to rollerblade and there is no pool in our community compared to the others around us. We have a Bowflex that barely gets used (and those things ain't cheap either) but I try, I really do. *sigh* My cat is pretty lazy so perhaps the saying is true, you take after your pets ^_^ he's rubbing off of me and hubby cause even though hubby is a bit minscule more active than me, he has his lazy streaks quite a bit too.
I also think that not having any friends close to me to hang out with and do things together that we have in common is part of the reason why I feel so shitty most of the times. My friends range between Houston (which is a 3-4 hr drive) or outside of Dallas and have minimal time to hang with them too or they live out of state. I have nothing but old ppl that live by us and its like the same shit I lived near when I was back home in PA too (but yet back home I didn't have to travel too far to see friends or rollerblade or take nice long walks).
I just hope that I can get my ass out of bed when I'm supposed to later today cause I have to bake cookies for hubby when he goes out on Saturday to raise money outside the local Walmart for the volunteer fire dept that he's involved with. *sigh* But I can just keep counting down the days till vacation and we go home to PA for a week and a half to finally see my family who I only get to see once a yr ^___^. We leave early next Wed morning.
Hmm...I decided to try out this new, well to me it is, Snapple ice tea that is cherry flavored. I must say its a taste that requires alot to get use to. Oh well, doesn't hurt to try new things. Fri nights are NORMALLY supposed to be my slow nights at work so hopefully I can get some other topics I've been wanting to write down. My life may be boring but at times I find a lot to talk about. Be afraid, be VERY afraid ^_^

Of course I do work the standard daytime job and should go to bed at a reasonable hour, however, I'm seldom sleepy during then. So I'll surf or read or do other stuff until the wee hours of the morning. Usually I'm only operating on five hours of sleep.
I hope you get the adequate rest you need. And really you don't NEED to learn html tagging, there are plenty of products out there that will do the stuff for you. All you have to do is have something to tag and upload to a website. ^__^

As for those site products out there, I believe Lucky told me that dreamweaver is one of those that tags stuff for ya. But I think the other thing that also stumps me are things like cool graphics or banners or certain way ppl do their headers and such. If they make those things up themselves, then they are pretty damn talented. But if they get the help from somewhere else, I'd like to know where too. I'm still envious of some ppl when it comes to the graphics. After all that shit that's been going on with ffnet, I do want to look into creating something soon so I can have a place to host my own fics and War Dove's too since at least half of her stuff is NC-17.
