When I was little my mother would help me quantify time by telling me it would be two "Mister Rogers" and one "Sesame Street" before it was time for this or that. It was so simple but somehow that made the time pass by easier. Lately, it seems like I need another simple way to quantify time other than staring at a calendar and clock. Although, today that might be a little more complicated. I might have to measure time by one two-hour season premiere of the “Amazing Race”, one “The Office” and one “Grey’s Anatomy.”
I’ve noticed lately that I’ve been living life by just trying to make it from one event to the next and not really focusing on the day to day living. I would never dare to get philosophical on this blog but my new goal is to find good moments in each day without having to look forward to find the good. The deep-rooted pessimist in me says that I can’t do it but at least I put it in writing.

I'm the same way. Always looking forward to the next big thing and totally missing what's happening now. Anyways, thanks for the heads up on The Office premier. I would have forgotten all about it and kicked myself later. :)
You are too funny! And I feel the same way a lot of the time...but mostly I'm just trying to make it till Friday...and today is Thursday, so I feel like I can make it right now. And tonight is Grey's Anatomy!! woo woo!! I can't wait!!
