People using my phrases charms the hell out of me, especially when it's not intentional. The amusing bit about this is that I tend, to some extent, to try to _not_ pick up everyone else's phrases. I don't even know why, although I suspect it may be because it happens entirely too easily.
I'm very cheerful today. This pleases me, even though I didn't actually manage to remember to go for a walk. Still stupidly busy, but cheerful anyway.
I think it has something to do with some combination of massage Thursday, Psinging and insanely exhausted but amusing phone call with
![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
australian_joe Friday, time to sleep in and do stuff Saturday,
echospiralheart visiting Saturday night and Sunday (she's a very good houseguest, a fun conversationalist, and did massage/reiki on me, as well), Work group managing to get rid of headache, nausea and tired Sunday night, and possibly
majes visiting last night. Oh! And unexpected call w/
australian_joe Sunday night.
I did miss having people _here_, where I don't have to go to them. So thank you to those who visited me! And yay for
aelisdeliria coming back soon. :)
Also. My kitty _loves_ me. And told me in _no_ uncertain terms during trancework at work group that I was _not_ to be fostering him anywhere during my year traversing the US. So I get him used to a harness & leash. And my massage therapist gets me info on renting a fairly small vehicle which includes a sleeping space (she knows someone who did the wandering the US for a year or so thing). And I do what I can to make sure I can bring him with me.
I really, really, really like the MA in Counseling Psychology w/concentration in Integral Counseling at
http://www.ciis.edu. I think that is where I will go after loans are gone and saving has happened, and I will be using my year wandering the US to change coasts. Depending on my feelings on additional schooling after that, I may then continue on to get their Doctor of Psychology, which is even accredited by the American Psychological Association. And I may throw in other bits and pieces of stuff to learn, afterwards. That school fascinates the hell out of me. I thank
rosefox for the pointer to it.
I seem to be generally reducing my LJ time, perhaps because it seems less urgent when I can't read regularly anymore. This interests me. I shall ponder more on it. Because of this, however, I have been periodically removing people from my friends list who I have no sense of, simply because it doesn't particularly affect what they can read _anyway_ (I hardly ever _use_ my two opt-in filters), and I see no point in reading people whose posts tend to mean nothing to me.
Meg Hutchinson's music makes my ears happy. I have
The Crossing on CD, in my car. I like, muchly.
