New Year, New Me

Maybe I shouldn't call them resolutions, but here are my goals for 2011.

1. Be healthy! (Come on, it's been 2 years, someone throw me a frickin' bone on this one)
2. Pay my bills the same week that I get them.
3. At least make the entries in my checkbook every week instead of waiting until my wallet is about to explode.
4. Be happier.
5. Post on here at least 3 times a week and get back into the habit of writing.

You can pick your friends...

...but you can't pick your relatives.

It's funny, that saying rang true before, but now, with social networking sites like Facebook, you can pick your relatives. You can pick if you want to communicate with them or not outside of family functions. I never really thought about this until a conversation with some people from high school tonight about relatives deleting you as friends. It's not like it's someone that you're not going to see again. It's someone who is going to have to look at you at Easter dinner or at their child's birthday parties. What makes you think that it's acceptable behavior to just delete a family member when it's someone that you're still going to have to deal with in your life. It's not like you can just walk away from them.

Nights of the Insane Dreams

So, I've been taking Lyrica for about 2 months now to deal with a nerve problem. Within 2 hours of taking the pill, my pain was gone, so it's been well worth it except for one small side effect.

The dreams.

I have been having the weirdest dreams since I've been taking it. They've been vivd, I actually remember them when I wake up. I've been stuck places, with people that I shouldn't be with. It's insane. Hopefully, I won't need it much longer since the nerve that was supposed to be causing me pain was cut during my last surgery.
