Interpretive sums

I kind of feel like I'm in limbo. At least for the next week. I'm in this place where I don't really have my feet firmly planted in either job; the new one or the current one. It feels like the new one has been so long in coming that I still don't quite believe that it's real. I know it is. I see my signature right there on the contract. Yet at the same time, I'm still in shock about it. Happy shock, but unreal none the less.

The socially crazy summer is also drawing to a close and being in this neither here nor there state, I am vulnerable to an attack of introspection. I spent so much of the summer making sure that I was on top of everything and I'm running out of things to be on top of. That really isn't intended to sound as wrong as it does.

Looking back at my calendar I see that I did a lot, but don't feel like I got anything done. I was busy, but when I start to tally it all, it's less than impressive. I got my double bass back, yet haven't had the time to play it as much as I want to. I started a scrap book of our years in Prague, you know, since we've been back for more than four years. I hung some new photos on the wall, played a lot of Facebook scrabble, got hooked on The Hills (and by proxy got back into makeup, fashion and headbands) and barely managed to keep my plants alive on the deck. Grew some seriously hot chili peppers though.

Upon reflection I have shopped more than I should have, I'm so glad I joined Flirty Girl full time and before I tasted the Jugo Juice Low Carb Zone Smoothie I had no idea what I was missing. I feel, that given how tired I am, the sum of all my reflections should add up to more than that. Not that any of those things are bad. They're just not big on the "wow" factor.

I guess as you get older it takes more to be a big deal with your math. Either that or it's less about "wow" and more about "nice." I should really lie down before I try to do any more thinking like this.
