Dodging Doom

I've come to the realization that I've got to step it up. Things right now seem to be flatlining.....not as being dead or anything, but become settled, and I'm not ready for that just yet. I know that there is more that I am capable of doing. I hate feeling routine, I need more. I feel like that famous parable about the guy pushing the rock up the hill day after day after day and falling back to the bottom, day after day after day. The craziest part about it is that I know the problem. I know that I'm holding on to too much worldly stuff. For once in my life it isn't my surroundings, its me! I get up one day.....cool....then the next two, seems like I'm back sliding again. The wildest part about this is that I'm so great at giving advice to others, but I have the slightest clue on how to take my own advice. Kinda like not practicing what you preach. Be it females, spiritually, my health....at this point seems like everything. {slumping}

I went out to have the meeting with Professor H yesterday. My research came back from the editor. Normally they send it out to 1 or 2 experts to critique research papers, but low and behold mine got sent to {5} of them. So needless to say, I got some good news and bad news. Two of the recommended publishing with minor corrections, Two of them recommended publishing with major corrections, and the one prick of the group recommended it not getting published at all....go figure! Dr. H and I chatted for about 2 1/2 hours after we had discussed the revisions of the paper. He is a trip!! He's from Hondoras, and has hours and hours of stories to tell about how he grew up and such. Wise old guy....knowledgable...especially about Physics, but a trip to say the least. I didn't get home until around 10:30 last night, tried to hit up the playstation, but that didn't suit me, so I just flipped to ESPN, got my clothes together for this morning and hit the sack.

Don't you hate when people owe you money and neglect to pay you back. I'm in that situation now with a friend of mine. He has been putting it off for about two weeks now....Im trying to be cool, without going postal.

My plan is to ask God for guidance. He has always been my refuge in suffering times, and believe me, you......these are suffering times.
