Wanderings

My mind is all over the place today. What was supposed to be a meeting filled fast paced day at work has actually been a slow, creeping, mind fog kind of day. I did have a few meetings this AM, and some work resulted from such, but nothing that I needed to do right away. So, I have done a whole lot of nothing - lots of internet surfing, which, unfortunately resulted in my anxiety level increasing significantly. Where is all the good news?

About an hour ago, I realized I should probably pick up the 36 page single spaced draft of my boyfriend's book. He emailed it to me last week and I printed it out right away. However, it has sat - untouched - since. I enjoy reading so you would think I would dive into his book. However, it is a "self-help" kind of book, which I can never seem to really get into. I am not sure why, but any book that deals with health, psychology, becoming a better person, etc. bores the hell out of me and I have to force myself to read them.

Well, I did pick up his book and started reading. It is good. He uses lots of actual examples, which helps keep me interested. Of course he called right when I started reading (he is working today and will sometimes call in between patients). I told him I had started reading his book draft. Of course, now every time he calls he asks which chapter I am on. When he last called and I told him I was only on chapter 3 he seemed a little shocked at how slow I was going. Of course, I told him "I do have work to do here too." A total lie - when I need a break from the world of health and medicine, I go out to the web for a little bit.

Of course, this is a break. Guess I need to pick it back up.......

PS - I have been reading many blogs today and cannot help but wonder when or if I will ever receive an actual comment on my blog. Not that it really matters as I am writing the blog for me, but it would seem that someone would have come across this and posted a thought or two.
