First Blog

This is a monumental event. I have been reading blogs from my fellow co-worker now for over eight months. I finally have released my inhibitions enough to start my own (with hopes of none knowing of my doing so). Thoughts that nobody of significance would even sacrifice the time to read this seem to comfort me even though I will be typing diligently in the absurd hope someone or anyone will take an interest in what I have to say? I guess I will give it a try. I am amazed at the piddly thoughts that always seem to race through my mind each waking minute. I guess you could call me a typical girl?
Speaking of girls, and to girls, have you ever had a blank mind? So, at any given moment, if someone asked you what you are thinking you could honestly answer "nothing"? I have never had a moment like that...something I yearn to have...not constantly, or even more than once, just one time to see how it feels. Not that I am a "man-hater" by any means, but it seems their gender was blessed by the gift of being able to turn off their brain. (Maybe this is the reason men are generally less...coherent...for lack of a more appropriate word). I will have been married for five years in 26 days and there are many times (if not most of the time)if ever I ask my husband what he is thinking and he says "nothing". Now, in the beginning I thought he was thinking things he just couldn't tell me (which is usually the case if he asks me what I am thinking.) Over the past few years I have come to the realization that there is nothing in his mind that he is pondering at that specific moment. I find this very appalling! How one's mind could be completely blank? I must admit to be a bit envious as I long to have that experience. However, I must remember what gender I am blessed to be and embrace my ability to be a true thinker. On that note, I had yet to meet a man that has a mind like mine until about a year ago. But, then again, that is a whole other story. I have not given the new fad Queer Eye for the Straight Guy show a chance. Honestly, it kinda freaks me out. Maybe there is more than one guy that thinks like me - then again, no...probably not. Enough with this subject - I am starting to annoy myself.
One other thing before I close, the whole dandelion ice thing is courtesy of my fellow blogger, Sara. For weeks of phone training, she had her magnetic poetry unfinished and is read something along the lines of "dandelion ice mumurs..." which remained unfinished for the duration of my training. How I longed to see it completed. To my recent dismay it has long been completed and swept away to new sprawlings of her tongue. It is weird what stays with you.
