Movie Night

Tonight was movie night. I went out with two girlfriends and we saw The Last Kiss.
It was very good, but hauntingly real. It was hard to watch at times. I was proud of myself that I didn't cry, but I almost did a few times. I love movies that force you to examine your life, your relationships. Sometimes we just go through the motions and we are so wrapped up in the day to day that we don't stop, take a few steps back, take it all in and see the big picture. This movie was that kind of movie. One that made your eyes so wide, wider than you thought they could ever open. I felt for a moment, that could of been me. I could have been the one who was cheated on or I could have been the cheater. I felt that stabbing pain in my heart when I was betrayed and I have felt the guilt, panic, fear, and remorse for having an affair. But this movie did more than conjure up some empathetic personal experiences, it wasn't about me, it was about everyone. We are all so vulnerable. You think you know someone, you think you know yourself, and then you are tested. You make a choice and then you have to live with that choice.

Gone, Gone, Gone, You've Been Gone So Long....

Were you wondering if I was ever gone to post again. Or did you completely give up on me? Tonight I was planning on getting to bed early. I've been waking up at the crack of ass for the past few days and I feel really tired, but I can't sleep. I've been thinking about blogging, and my blog friends. Sorry I haven't been around. I can't say that I was doing anything spectacular. Started a new work venture. That has been hogging a lot of my time. I took the kids to Williamsburg, VA. That was a whole lot of fun. Great place, I highly recommend it.

I've been working from home and I think it is making me a little depressed. The thing about working from home is you never leave work. People think, oh you're working from home, you must have so much free time. This is not true, for me anyway.
So, I think I'm depressed because I am cooped up all day and I am not interacting with people. I wake up and start my laptop up and I'm working. Before I know it, it's noon and I haven't showered yet. When I went to drop off my cleaning yesterday, the woman asked, "When would you like to pick these up?" I replied, "What's today?" She looked at me funny. The other thing is people get the work at home mom, confused with the stay at home mom. I think that's what dry cleaner lady was thinking. Must be nice, stay at home mom, doesn't even have to remember what day it is.

Having said that, I'd rather be a work at home mom instead of a stay at home mom. I tried the latter and it was not for me. I have to work. I started my new business the day after I quit my job. So that's good. I have that going for me, which is nice. But I smell. I smell bad. Almost skunk like. I honestly can't remember when I showered last. I think it was Monday. Ok, I gotta go take a shower. This is ridiculous.
