I keep thinking I will update this blog more frequently, but I have the same problem with this as I have with everything else--I jut don't do it.  I am so the opposite of Nike.  I keep wanting to be different, but wanting doesn't make it so.  I am afraid my COBRA is about up and I may have to stop my sessions with my psychologist.  I probably should have seen a psychiatrist maybe it would have been a better experience--then again it may have all turned out exactly the same.

I signed up for a seminar to help me get a job and it is going to be a lot of work.  I am already procrastinating and I hope I can get more motivated quickly.  I am hoping that this will give me some accountability and get me going even if it is reluctantly.

My car was totaled from the accident I had a couple of weeks ago.  I am pleased with the amount my insurance company is giving me, but now I have to get a new car.  I haven't really looked for one and I need to get one soon.  My brother-in-law is trying to sell me his 2005 Prius.  I think it is in pretty good shape, but it has 135,000 miles on it and that concerns me a bit.  I would like to have a Prius as they get excellent gas mileage.  He says he will give me a good price, but I don't want them to feel like they did me a favor and now I owe them.  They lent one of my other sisters some money once and she felt like they held it over her for a while.  If I don't buy the Prius, then I need to get a car.  I am flying to the east coast on Sunday and I either need to have bought a car or decided to buy the Prius so that I can drive it back.  I am not excited about taking the time to drive back.

I did something completely bad.  I pre-ordered the Galaxy Tab from Sprint on Thursday.  I was shocked when it arrived on Friday.  It was free shipping and they must have overnighted it.  It is a cool little piece of hardware, but it doesn't seem to be helping me be productive.  I finally have a device that I can play Angry Birds on--and I have been playing too much.  One of the sites I frequent--Tanga--is starting a survey and offers type page and invited Super Tanga Users to try it out.  One of the offers I signed up for was Mint.com.  After I signed up, I found an Android app to interface with Mint.com.  I had been ignoring my bank accounts, because they were running low and I would have a panic attack when I thought about it.  My heart was racing so fast when the data loaded and I saw how little money I really have, so I guess it has been good for that.  I was excited that the Galaxy Tab supported flash, but most of my favorite websites do not work still--netflix streaming, the Dungeons and Dragons Compendium, Hulu.com, asobrain.com, and the USA Today crossword puzzle to name a few.  Evidently, the browser does not support Java.  My biggest complaint is that is can't make a phone call.  I can use Skype, but ony without video.  I tried Google Talk, but it will only allow text conversations.  It is also very expensive--approximatey $400 for the unit and approximately $30 a month for data services.  I wish there was a WiFi only version, but that is not due until late next year.  For $200.00 more I could have bought the thing outright from Sprint and canceled the required data plan.  Anyhow, the interface is great, I love the size, and the existing Android apps seem to work well.  If  I had a job I would probably not be taking back in a couple of weeks.

This weekend I went bowling with some friends to celebrate Dawn's 40th birthday.  I bowl maybe once a year or so.  My highest score was a 135 and that was really good for me.  I even had several strikes in that game.

Sunday school was nerve wracking.  I still haven't got the hang of it.  It went pretty well, but I am not sure what the kids are getting from it.  Hopefully, they are getting something out of it--I feel like I am.  After teaching the Rosary a while back, I was saying the Rosary practically every night.  This week I stopped--I am not sure whether if there was any effect on me.  I did feel a little guilty every night before bed.  I went ahead and said a Rosary tonight before writing this entry. 

Hopefully, I will be able to sleep tonight after realizing how little money I have and how much I have procrastinated on the resume application I am supposed to finish for Wednesday.  I haven't taken a sleeping pill for at least a week and I hope to keep that up--I have been taking anxiety pills on occasion.
