Gratuitous Blogging (redundant?)

There have been many moments this week when I thought, "I should blog about this," but, ...  *shrug*  I haven't felt much like sharing.  Which is not to say I've had nothing to share, or that my brain hasn't been over-flowing with thoughts.  I've just been very much deep in my head this week.  It's not as emo or navel-gazer as it sounds.  There's a dark carnival of fun going on in here and I've just been content to hang out there with myself.

So, let's see.  Briefly, here's some of what I didn't feel like blogging about in the moment.

We went to Super Cruise in Wauseon on Tuesday.  I'm not car-crazy, but it was still fun to walk around and look.  I was far more excited about the speeding freight trains that blast through the center of town quite a few times an hour (I'm five).  It tickled me that with the street blocked off for the cruise (which was more of a car "park", really) the traffic control people tugged up a nylon rope tied to a pole across the wide street to hold people back when the trains came.

We bought a tent this week, a glorious Big Agnes Flying Diamond 6.  Craig very wisely suggested that we try some camping this year just to make absolute sure I'm up for Burning Man next year, given that I've never slept in a tent.  I love our new tent (it came today!) and can't wait to use it!  (Though I'm still thinking I want a canvas tent for Burning Man.)  What I forgot was...

Jasmine is getting fed three times a day now.  (Which makes camping not an option.  D'oh!)  She had an appointment this week just to be weighed, and she's put a little weight back on thanks to the critical care feed, but not a lot.  Dr. O. upped her special food from 40ml/day to 60ml, but she won't eat more than 20ml at a time, so three feedings it is. 

I'm bummed that I can't take off and go camping this weekend or any time soon, but I'm so glad she's feeling weightier already and appears to be one content little bunny.  I can't believe I forgot about her care while I was getting all excited about camping, but hands-down, it's FAR more important to me that she's well cared for and still living the good life.  There will be PLENTY of time for camping  I want to snuggle my bunny princess as often as possible while I still can.

Had a FABULOUS storm overnight, finally!  If it's not asking too much, I'd like more of the same, but this time while I'm awake and can enjoy it.

I've been working harder than ever at keeping a good attitude and focusing only on what I want out of life.  And it's A LOT of work too.  ...Might have something to do with why I've been so quiet, what with all that tongue biting.  heh.  But I'm serious as hell about living the good life and I'm fully committed to working at it.  I do believe you attract that which you think about most often, so I'm doing my best to only think happy, prosperous, healthy thoughts.

Well, those are the highlights, the bigger things I've thought about blogging this week but couldn't be bothered to at the time.  Now, back into the carnival that is my own head for a while longer.

OH!  I also wanted to jot down somewhere that while Craig and I were sitting on the porch swing earlier this week, an older couple drove by in a 1911 Model T Runabout (according to Craig's web search).  The car looked pristine, and they were dressed to match with driving goggles and leather caps and scarves flying jauntily in the wind.  They were both smiling from ear to ear in pure bliss, and the woman waved at us over her head as they drove by and time just kind of stopped and scrambled for one magical moment.  I want that to be us.  That looked like two people enjoying the hell out of life!  It looked like they drove right out of an older time into ours, just for the adventure of it.  Delightful!
