Habits

Can't control myself from writing 09 even though factually/knowledge based I know the truth. I am compelled by some unseen force telling me to remember tradition. Remember how my hand moved for an entire year every day in the same way when writing the date on a sticky note or log sheet (writing). Remember how we recite the date every day in class. Today is Tuesday, January nineteenth, two thousand nine (oops i mean ten :P...[speaking]). I may hear two thousand nine spoken by another and not notice it is incorrect (hearing). How long does it take to form new habits? Ruts? Spatial/verbal/heard memory? I have heard it somewhere that new habits take 2 weeks to form and keep in the brain. So does that mean continuously, every day, once a day? Might have to go check that one out.


Well, we know hopefully most of us should be able to write or say the date correctly by February. Whew! But, there are relapses throughout the year on occasion. Sometime mid June of this year, I will incorrectly write 2009 for the year when writing the date. Eh I'll be on summer break chillaxin by then, who cares ya know? :P

26th Year

A year of reflection. Of change. Thanks to all my friends and family for the birthday wishes this past week. It has been a great year and a wonderful day today! I'm in my favorite place with my favorite person. I love my life and the fact that my birthday falls on the busiest, in terms of traffic, shopping day of the year. Irony is my friend in so many ways. A smile comes to my face with just the thought. I couldn't resist the urge to share my thoughts on this evening ode to consumerism. How proud am I that the anniversary of my birth falls on the day that more Americans are in shopping malls than at home with their families on this glorious Friday; either working or shopping. On this weekend when we give thanks for the incredible spoiled bounty that overfills our cup spilling out into the surrounding land, flooding nearby villages and killing thousands; let us remember to find contentment in the little things in life like cheese, puppies, gooses and goodness.

Pic of me


I thought I would upload a pic of me. This is definately an original sort of picture. It is a caricature that I got while on our honeymoon in Florida. I have always liked it!




A Start of Something

I decided to create this blog specifically dedicated to my personal journey through life. I want this blog to capture personal thoughts, feelings, and ideas about life, relationships, culture, history, or anything else that I stumble upon that has an impact on me in some deep way. But, I don't want this blog to be a burden; something that I have to add to everyday or week or whatever. I just want ideas to flow naturally. I will also be linking a couple of previous writings that capture earlier ideas I had about issues. I think it is important to include these because it shows the progression of ideas and personal changes. So, the next couple of posts were originally posted in my other blog that you can find at: http://mrsgalbreath.blogspot.com/
