On Etc.

I've found that too much caffeine intake makes me "freak out." However, I've been extra tired lately (probably all the carbs I've been ingesting) so says my husband. Or it could be something else all together, which I'll get in to in a moment. Regardless, I've got an iced capp sitting on my desk from Tim Hortons. I just needed a little kick you know? I imagine around the time I get home I'll be all keyed up and feeling like I need to jump out of my skin just from a small coffee. Right now... I feel great.

On to other topics, which some may find ridiculous. I'm a bit of a believer in the paranormal. I've had some interesting experiences and witnessed others have some interesting experiences, so I can't discredit it all together. That being said, I've got some haints in my house. Specifically roaming around my upstairs where my bedroom is. Some time last week when I was getting ready to fall asleep, I noticed some "midget" haints running around my bed. To elaborate, I didn't actually see midgets, but short (about 3' in height) black figures. I'm guessing it's just some sort of energy. Well, it was enough to freak me out and make me sleep with the lights on that night, and every night since.

I told my husband about this, and he immediately says: "Oh yeah, they're around, but I always see the giant ones that are as tall as the ceiling. Oh and sometimes, they're out in the hall because I see the clock on your radio out there blacked out." Normally I would just think he's yanking my chain, but I too have seen the clock on my radio in the hall completely blacked out when it certainly shouldn't be. What doesn't help matters is my chihuahua who sleeps in my room darting up and staring at the doorway with the hair on his neck raised and growling. Needless to say, I haven't slept much for the past few nights.

On a completely different note, I've been toying with the notion of throwing a cocktail/book signing party sometime at the end of next month. I figure I'll just invite everyone I know on Facebook, maybe even co-workers and try to sell some books, or even get the word out so I can sell the second one when I'm finished. Originally I was thinking of doing it at my house, but that just wouldn't do. I was thinking of renting out a pavilion at a park or even a small hall. Of course, this costs money, and I don't know how much good it would do, so I'll be deep into research on that front.

Meanwhile, I'm looking forward to a week long vacation at the end of the month, and... not coming to work on my birthday.
