New Blog

I recently started a new blog (about all those bad office things people do-- it makes me feel good at work when I have an outlet) and have been ignoring my thoughts blog. So I have lots of pent up thoughts, of course. I don't know if I'll stick to it, though. Maybe my life is interesting enough. I'm going to add some of that in.

I went home this weekend. Saw the fam. It was fun. I listened to Bridget Jones on CD in the car. How funny that reading (or listening to) a book can influence you. I know it's just a story, created to amuse, but Bridget works to become more confident, poised, etc. and I wonder if I need to do that. I'm not extreme, in that I have not gone out and purchased a library of self help books or taken holday to Thailand and gotten arrested or started counting calories that I eat and obsessing about my weight. In relating to the character, though, I do just that, relate to the character. I am almost done with the book, but to finish (before it is due back to the library of course) I am listening on the way to work. It makes me want to stay in my car and listen when I park. Funny how a book can suck you in.
