Grumpy pants

I woke up in a funk today. No reason for it, really. Nothing concrete at least. There are a few things that are minuscule but slowly building up. My expectations are not being met. I tend not to expect much in the first place, and so when the little expectations that I do have are not met, I get a little annoyed.

One of which is me. I, being a Gemini with a rising Aries, am particularly hard on myself. I am currently not happy and feel like I need to do something.

One of the more pressing annoyances is work and how little I get paid. It's bullshit. How does someone get promoted without receiving a raise? So janky.

So I went and read about what the universe has to say about all of this. This is what she had to say:

"The Full moon (Feb. 28) falls in your 4th house of home, family, and property issues. This could be an emotional full moon for you as the moon falls at the bottom of your chart and squares your sun. Difficulties on the home front or within your family could result. Someone may be hypercritical or hard to please. It’s possible that you’re left disappointed about something at work, which could include finances or employee benefits. Whatever develops may take until March 2 before the energy subsides."

Yep. Thought so.

Thank you Meliska

Just because

Thank you Lisa May from KROQ. I just bought my mommy flowers.

Just because.

Well, because my mom deserves them and she doesn't get anything from my Dad just because.

Shit, she barely gets anything from him on her birthday, Valentine's Day, or their anniversary.

So I thought I would bring my mother some joy and express my gratitude to her and all that she does, even if we butt heads from time to time.

I love and deeply admire that woman.

Twittered up

I caved in. I got a Twitter.

follow me @Leksifer

So far, it's been quite entertaining. I've figured out how to program my phone to update my status to it, as well as Facebook. A step toward the technologically-savvy direction I've been attempting to take since the new year.

I also learned how to upload photos from my phone to a Web album. Go me.

I feel very accomplished today.

Now I have to get my ass back into gear and start going to the gym consistently again. With my promotion, my schedule changed, and its harder to motivate myself to work out post 8 hours of working...

It'll come. Eventually. It always does. In the meantime, I'm going to enjoy snowboarding in Mammoth for the next few weekends!
