Bored and Restless

I'm bored tonight. And restless. Or maybe it's that I'm so tired I can't think let alone move myself from this chair that sits in front of the computer.

Why is it I sit here so much during the day? It's not the couch that has my butt print permanently embedded in it....oh no. It's the kitchen chair that I pretend is a desk chair. The good news is there are four kitchen chairs so I just rotate them around. That way no one really notices one chair has an enormous indent in it. :)

Wow. What did I just write? Seriously? That's the best I can do tonight? Yeah, I think it is. Sad.

I was thinking today how much I miss The Gilmore Girls. Yes, I know it's been off the air for almost two years and yet - my sadness about its loss lives on. I own all seven seasons on DVD so I could watch it any time I'd like and yet that is so not the same. I want new episodes. I want to know what is happening with Rory. When we last saw her she was on the press core campaign trail with Obama. Is she now sitting in the White House Press Room? And what about Lorelai? Did she and Luke get married? And what about Logan?

I hate it that shows become such a part of your every day life and then just up and vanish. Do they not know or care what that does to some of us? Yeah I know how all this makes me appear but sheesh - these people were like family to me and now - well...I wonder about it all.

I think they should get together and put out a 4 hour movie (because 2 hours just isn't long enough for me) and bring some closure to my life. Clearly I need some - it's been almost two years. :)

Why is it exactly I have this blog? The reason escapes me now. I'm sure it was just so I could write about the stuff that goes on inside my head that has nothing to do with my regular mom life. A place where my thoughts could just come out no matter how odd and whacky they are. Seems to me that exact thing is taking place. Because none of this makes sense to me - I'm just rambling on and on and on.

Oh - and I remember wanting my "own" domain. Why? I don't know. I guess because all the cool kids were doing it. How's that working out for me? Well let's see...I pay $10 a year, have no real visitors (and no regulars, for sure) and hardly can find the time to post. I thought about not renewing it this year but I just couldn't let the name go...Not Enough Coffee, Time or Money. It just sums up my life so well and the thought of it being scooped up with minutes of my non-renewal was just too much to bear. And let's not talk about how I thought I would be all "with it" and go in and renew it before it was due because really? All that did was allow me the pleasure of paying twice. I couldn't figure out who to call to fix it so I just let it go but have I really? Oh no - I think about it and it kinda ticks me off. That will teach me to be ahead of the game.

So here I sit at 9:09 pm just letting words flow from my fingertips. Making no sense whatsoever but feeling some sense of satisfaction that I am posting. Posting nothing important and certainly nothing awe inspiring or world changing but posting nonetheless.

And you just read it. God bless you for that because honestly, I'm not sure I would have gotten past the first paragraph and in truth, I'm not sure the thinking part of my brain did. :)

I'd say I will do better next time but then I'd probably have to break a promise and I try to not do that. Say what you mean and mean what you say...or is it Do What You Said You Would Do. Yeah - that's it.

So this is what I'll say...I'll be back. It might not be all that entertaining or maybe it will be. You'll have to stop back by another time to find out.

Don't you just LOVE cliff hangers? :)

I would give a leg for Gilmore Girls to come back on!!! I LOVE that show, own every season, but still watch 2 new episodes everyday during daytime reruns!!

Girl, I had to laugh at your stream of consciousness writing. Sounds just like me sometimes. In my head its all "la la la la" and my fingers just keep on going.
