Another fun day here at work. I'm trying to recover from lack of sleep last night because I was up late watching Harry Potter 4. Good movie...but bleh, I need sleep. I also played a way fun game of Ultimate Frisbee yesterday which has added to my tiredness. Worth it though. Luckily for me I have the next two days off from work, but I'll be back in Kaysville yet again for various reasons (2nd trip this week) until Friday. Other than the movie last night, I feel like I'm barely finding time to take a break and rest a bit, not just physically but mentally. It's been non stop since last week; apartment hunting, working out my major at UVU, driving all the way to WSU to pick up a transcript, cleaning checks, etc etc. Mixed in all of that is trying to juggle all of my friends so I can spend time with them. It's frustrating at times. My mind is also recovering from some things going down with my friends having hard times and trying to help them out with it. So yeah, let's just say my brain is mush at the moment.
You know...I just realized a flaw in my blog title (it only took me a year to notice...). It says "My Life on Paper". This blog isn't paper. It's white electronic words with a brown background. There is no paper involved. Hmm....I can't call it "Andrew Narrated: My Life Presented via Electronic Document". That's just a mouthful. *shrugs* Do any of you have any ideas for a new blog title? I'm not even sure if it will let me change it, but if it does I'm open to suggestions.
For those of you who know me fairly well, you know that I'm a pretty big thinker. Not that I'm exceptionally smart or anything, but I think things out A LOT. I believe I've mentioned before that I'm an over thinker. It's definitely a flaw of mine, but I'm not quite sure how to remedy it. I feel like I look at all the small details and create something big from it that probably doesn't exist or is incorrect. Either that or I just create a ton of scenarios or possible outcomes of an upcoming event...usually dates or things involving dating in general, (I just don't want things to go wrong I suppose), and then stress a little.
Anyway, without trying to sound crazy or anything like that, usually when this over thinking happens it's usually like I'm narrating myself in my head. Do any of you do that? It's like having a conversation with yourself in your head. It's not like having split personality or something like that, and it's not outloud either. The more I'm writing about this the crazier it's starting to sound. It's sort of like in cartoons where it zooms in on the characters head and you hear what they are thinking. That's the best way I can describe it. I'm not quite sure why I'm talking about this topic really. I'm just bored at work and it sort of popped into my head, so I thought I'd present the idea of it to see if I'm not the only one that does it.
So yeah, that's about it for now. I'm quite chuffed (British for pleased) that I've had two blogs posts this close together. Perhaps I'll be able to get going again with this blog.
If you ever printed out your posts and put them somewhere, they would be on paper! Sometimes a title doesn't necessarily have to be true. It is a very good title. I like it and wouldn't change it.
ReplyDeleteI probably think in a similar way that you do. I think most humans think about scenarios and the various ways they could turn out. But you are still crazy.
You could say "My Life in Words" instead? I don't know. Either way it's good.
ReplyDeleteThanks again for coming to frisbee! You and your friends are way good.
I like the title, too, even if it's not completely correct. If you want to change it though, it could be just "Andrew Narrated". ??
ReplyDeleteAs for the actually narrating things in your head, it's totally normal! Right? I'm hoping it is, because I do the same. Sometimes even out loud. So maybe I'm even crazier than you!
Just try not to stress! I'm REALLY good at that, too, but I also know it's just a waste of energy. It's something I'm working on.
P.S. If you're too busy, just say no! Sometimes it's needed, and that's ok.
