Thoughts to Think

I have been going to the bathroom at work at least 6 times a day. This is not a joke. My bladder is constantly reminding me of its existence. The bladder is, technically, a muscle. Does that mean the more I hold it before I go to the bathroom the stronger it gets which makes it able to hold more liquid/last longer between urinations? David mentioned that when he first started trying to drink 128 fl. oz. of water every day that he peed all the time, but it has slowed down since. Maybe I’m on to something here.

Recently a coworker described me as “smiley”. I have never thought of myself as a smiley person. I’ve thought of myself as Kelly Osbourne in the past. Angry. Detached. On the depressed/depressing side. But when that coworker described me as a “smiley” person I kind of realized that I am. At least for right now. And that makes me happy because it lets me know that I am at a good place right now and that I have a lot to be grateful for and hence, a lot to be smiley about.

Tomorrow morning Skyler and I will be cultivating a little plot of dirt behind my apartment to grow some vegetables. I am excited for my little garden and even more excited for the little herb garden that will be in my kitchen.

Today at work we ambushed Nathan with a rubberband attack. It felt like bonding time as we blasted Rebecca Black’s “It’s Friday” and Claire, Emily, Tessa, Cameron and I all shot tons of rubberbands at Nathan. It was a good moment. Nathan, it turns out, is pretty good at photoshopping and made the following picture for Emily, Claire and myself.



I love my job. I love my office. It’s fantastic.

You've always seemed very smiley to me!

By the way, the longer you hold before you go to the bathroom, the more likely you will be to get a UTI. It's not particularly healthy :)

Don't try to hold it. Boys just don't understand, but when a girl has to go, she should really just go right then.
