Oh, hello! We’re having dinner this evening – barbecue pulled pork, brown rice, steamed Brussel sprouts. Dig in!
Recently, I wrote a post about being lonely, which if I may say so was a big hit. That wasn’t why I wrote it, but I’m thankful for the praise I’ve received.
That said, my post tonight is NOT about me being lonely, but it is about me being restless. Restless in my life. Restless in my job. I feel like I would love to shake things up and move away and change jobs. But of course, if that were to happen, I would freak out and cry and not want to go. Because, as the saying goes, wherever you go, there you are. Moving away and changing jobs won’t cure my restlessness. And can I tell you why? Can I?
BECAUSE I DON’T KNOW WHY I’M RESTLESS!! If I knew that, I could fix it. Maybe I look around and see others making changes or maybe it’s because things at the Gas ‘n Sip are changing, and I’m either jealous or anxious or scared. (Things at the Gas ‘n Sip ARE changing. I believe they are getting rid of the Slurpee Station, so I may end up at the Nacho Bar or on the Wiener Wheel. I think I would really like the Wiener Wheel – I would totally bogart some of that melty orange cheese from the nachos for the wieners. Sales will skyrocket!! More about that at another time.)
What I think I need to do is to spend a little time trying to figure out what is bothering me. What is it that is making me fidgety? Why am I unsatisfied? What am I unsatisfied with? Oh, these huge existential philosophical conundrums with which I am dealing. Sometimes it’s hard to to be me. Wait, conundrums? Conundra? Hmmm. I think I need to go check that.

Oh. Heh. That was supposed to be someTHING big and different and good coming your way….but, you know, maybe someONE too. Someone big. Like….a pro wrestler maybe? Oh, never mind.

*snort* i will accept either someONE or someTHING big. but someONE big does put a new spin on the “wiener wheel”… *heh*

Sometimes I have found in my past that my restlessness has turned out to be a weird kind of psychic foreboding. Like someone big and different and good might be coming your way and your energy is picking up on that as kind of a signal.
I’m not even making this up.
Or, you know, maybe you’re just worried about the wiener wheel.

I think feeling restless can be a good thing. It means you’re ready for change and ready to move to the next thing. Maybe it’s a job change or maybe it’s more about how you do your job. Maybe it’s something bigger or smaller. Either way, it’s exciting.

i really do hope it’s the hint of something big and exciting. a little wonderful shaking up of things would be good.

Will. You. Just. Stop. Pacing. About. Sheesh.

Come to England and have Pimms. That would help you figure it all out 🙂
