PS

This is sort of an inside thing. Don't know if who it's meant for even still reads this blog. So this is directed at one individual...please do not post a bunch of comments or send me a million emails about how offended you are by it. You won't get it. It's not what you think. This is NOT for you...well, it's for one of you, but you WILL know who you are...if you're still out there.

Almost Happy Birthday To Me!

So, tomorrow I turn the big 29. The first day of my last year in my 20s. I know, I know, I'm not old and blah blah blah. Truth is, I'm not really dreading it, I'm not depressed about getting older or anything like that. In fact, I'm looking forward to this one. I've reached a point in my life where getting older really isn't all that scary. When I was 19, 29 looked so old. I couldn't imagine myself there. And yes, though I can't see myself at 39 right now, I also don't think 39 is old at all. I look around at my parents, my friends. I know quite a few people who are older than I am, and they don't seem old to me. Age is a state of mind, and I certainly don't act my age. :) With every year comes experience, and I wouldn't trade any of mine in. Not even the bad. Everything I've been through has made me who I am. And I can honestly say I like who I am. There are plenty of things I want to change...just read the Meg 2.0 post to see that. But who I am as a whole...I like her.

Anyhoo, I'm not feeling so good today, the last few days I've had a sore throat and a cough. Last night I passed out at 8:00...I shit you not. So, since I'm leaving for my vacation tomorrow, I decided to stay home from work and rest up. Nothing worse than being sick on your vacation. I am feeling better, but thought the extra day of rest would do me well.

Once I am back and feeling refreshed, I'll have more of Meg 2.0 for you. And I'll hopefully have some other news too. I applied for a position in our training department last week. They were supposed to get back to me by yesterday, but they didn't. And I'm not there today, so I guess I'll have to be in suspense until Tuesday. I also was just told about a position at a friend's company. Editorial assistant. Going back to my publishing roots. I don't have all the details of that yet, but will definitely find out more. There's always something. That's one of the things Meg 2.0 has taught me. When I feel like giving up, when I think nothing will ever go right and all my luck is bad....I have to remind myself that there is always something.

To quote the Rolling Stones for a moment..."You can't always get what you want. But if you try sometimes, you just might find, you get what you need."

Don't know if I'll have time to post before I board my plane tomorrow...so if not...I'll check in when I get home! Later!

Quick Note

Just as I started this post, the shrill whine of a terrible two floated through the room. He apparently is not happy that I will not let him play with little, sharp things like pencils and pens. I am truly evil! Anyhoo, this quick note will have to be even quicker as I can not stand the shrill for long.

I just wanted to let you know that I have not given up on my project, there has just been a lack of time as of late. With the little one's b-day, work, and preparing for my mini-vacation...I just have not been able to get on to the computer.

I'm leaving...on a jet plane...on my b-day (Friday the 31st) to spend a few days in the sun. I so desperately need to do nothing but read, write, and relax! I promise, that upon my return, I shall continue with Meg 2.0...and hopefully have some good news to report on the writing front. :) Until then...
