it's monday morning. after a 3-day weekend. and... i'm sleepy even though i went to sleep at a good hour. but my phone rang at 3:46 am. some restricted number. then again at 3:48 am from (what i assume) the same restricted number. both left voicemails but i can't understand what they say.
why oh why would someone do that? gah.

Because... they're in a radically different time zone and forgot to check time differences? Because they're telemarketers who dialed the number their random number generator computers spat out and didn't care who was on the other end of the line?
rachelsedge: If you have things to run from, do you have anything to run to?
MollyConnor: If you are not tired but you start yawning, it's because you're not getting enough oxygen. Yawning is the body's way of increasing airflow despite what you are doing. Increase respiration and it will pass.
lil_christian: Also when you are nervous you automatically breathe less - it's the fight-or-flight instinct that concentrates all body resources on immediate physical action, which sacrifices proper breathing for a bit. This instinct is good for short term but not supportable for any appreciable duration because you would eventually pass out... so you start yawning.
Actually it was in the news a few months ago about an olympic speed skater who was at the starting line waiting for the start of the race - and he yawned. "Oh the tension must be so much for him that he's bored!" No, he's just focusing on the race ahead and his body responds to the anticipated increased exertion by increasing airflow.

I think I tend to be more emotional than normal when I'm tired, so bear with me if I'm all over the place today. I will not be a drama llama though haha.
I'm just waking up this morning feeling like I need the grace and mercy of God more than ever today. There is so much pride and selfishness in me that I know He will continue to root out, I just wish it wasn't there to begin with. But I'm so thankful that His mercies are new every morning.

Has anyone ever been faced with a situation where people would question you as to whether or not you are from the area you are in (and born in)? Weird question and I probably mentioned something of this before.
I have been asked about it a few times while interacting with others and I know it's obvious as to why they would ask such questions. I can't function like a normal human being, let alone even conform within such settings that I've been in. Pity as it may sound, it's true. But when thinking about it, I feel so alienated and all the more reason why I'm probably at the point of not being savable to even function properly when interacting with others let alone contribute. So what else am I to expect?
This will be it as far as sharing anything today. Just having one of those days, I guess.

I yawn when I am nervous and don't really know what to do to occupy myself. I also yawn when I sing sometimes... I think because I'm not breathing properly and need more oxygen.
hmmm. i often yawn when i'm tired. like this morning.
good morning people. : )
oh, and chandlerfan: i'm definitely more emotional when i'm tired. and i say dumb things and prattle on about things i don't really care about. i also tend to feel snacky and have interesting choices in snack food. right now i'm working on a bottle of dill pickles. true story. : )

This conversation totally reminds me of this

Whenever a solicitor calls, we direct them to Terry Wang. Terry Wang plays a key role in circumventing telephone advertisements and sales pitches. He is quite busy with taking messages and emails, so much so that he doesn't really have an opportunity to get back to anybody. His busy schedule calls him out of the office so often that one might consider him 'unreachable,' even.
A few solicitors take it on faith that Terry Wang will return, and so they call back. Again, and again, and again. The repetitious return calls have earned us deferring people to him as "giving them the boomerwang."

Began my first PT exercises for strengthening my lumbar region today.. gotta take it slow, but wish i could run marathons instead of baby steps!!! I'm not used to being forced into slowing down this much.. yet for the sake of my health, I must do what the doctors and God tell me to.. #ThisIsNotForever. 
Sometimes when I talk about my life on here I feel like I make it sound worse than what it actually is. I don't know...it's something to think about.
For now, I continue to look for jobs.
