I suppose this is what's known as just one of those days...

Today was....

I don't know how or rather if I want to finish that sentence. I don't suppose today could be particularly described as horrible. But I don't feel like my day was particularly bright either. Well, whatever today was, it made me realize exactly how important my personal alone time is for my proper functioning. And when I say alone time, I mean alone alone. Some people can just go into their room even with other people in the house and that's sufficient. Sometimes it is for me too, but not today. I needed to get out of the house, or else I thought I was going to go crazy. I love my family, but I can feel myself getting closer and closer to that point in my life where I cannot live at home. I need to live on my own and be my own responsible adult. I love home, obviously, but whenever I come back for a long period of time, I always feel like I've taken a step back as far as "growing up" is concerned. It makes it sound like I hate my home or something ridiculous like that. I don't. Anyone that knows me knows I don't, but anyone that knows me also knows that I'm probably somewhat of an independent spirit that thrives on doing things myself. Unfortunately for that side of me, I am in somewhat of a limbo here. I don't have a job that will support my living on my own, nor do I have any of the essential elements of living on my own, including a college degree, an apartment, or again, a job that will support me. So...sigh...I guess I'll just have to be patient and work hard so that when my time does come (soon enough I'm sure) I will be able to be my very own responsible caretaker. Until then...I guess I'll just have to get out when I can. =)

On a lighter note. I went to the dentist today and they numbed one entire side of my face in order to fill one tiny cavity. Hmm, overkill? Maybe. I always hate it when they numb me, because I drool and don't notice until it's down my shirt. Gross. Oh well. And speaking of going to the dentist, may I just say that if you ever decide to become a dental office receptionist, Do not, I repeat Do NOT be a jerk to the patients. Don't act all huffy and frustrated when you're trying to set up appointments for college students that attend college out of state and will not be there when the time is most convenient for you. Why? Because it makes your dental patients cranky and it makes them not want to go back to the dentist ever. So in conclusion, future dental receptionists, just don't be a jerk. that's all there is to it.

I'm still a little bitter from my plight with Recept-Thor today. oh well. Won't be seeing her for awhile. I think that's about it for now, I have alot more thoughts running through my head, but none that I particularly wish to divulge. That whole fortress thing about my feelings...you understand. Well, Good night!
