I wasn't sure about my email prayer chain idea. I thought it'd get dismissed or, worse, ignored by everyone. For once in my life, I'm happy to announce, "I was wrong." In less than 24 hours of making "Invalid Item"  public, I've had numerous requests. I didn't even think I'd get one! After nearly 20 years on WDC, I still feel like the kid that started school in the second semester, trying to figure out which lunch table I can sit at without being rejected. As an adult, I've learned to walk by all the tables and eat alone under a tree. It's always suited me fine until now. Years of eating alone have taken a toll on me. Although I've avoided petty arguments, stupid insults, and other people's drama, I've avoided shoulders to lean on and new experiences. Even though I see and regret many of my choices, I don't know what to do next. What I do know is that I've got too many ideas and not enough time. This gives me anxiety because I constantly worry that I'm wasting time on meaningless, unimportant crap. So when I finally decided on which activity I wanted to prioritize, I had a conversation with myself. If I were a member, which one would I check out first? I don't know about ya'll, but I've had a difficult year. I could definitely use some extra spiritual support right now. A new challenge will get more interest. Maybe I'll finally find my WDC groove with a popular activity. Did you catch that? Yep, that's right. I nearly focused on something that's less beneficial overall in order to be appealing to more people. It's like that time I pierced my belly button to impress the cool girls. It didn't turn out so well. My navel got infected and the antibiotics I took prevented me from being in the sun long. So no hanging out at Six Flags or Wet & Wild. Yeah, I decided my other "great idea" could wait a while. I finally made the right choice. Damn it feels good! |

but seems to be okay today. I worry about my poor circulation, scrub my toes with a soft bristle brush, watch discoloration come and go. I probably need new arteries or veins but hey... "Heathcare" USA (enough said?). I may be better off trying something here in Thailand. But still... wish I lived in a country that had adequate patient based healthcare. Thailand and Taiwan mostly do, but I can't access it. First world systems like Europe, Canada and Australia do, but again, I can't access it.
