It was pretty enough and weather was gorgeous. Pic taken Sunday with the iPhone after my jog.
Random ramblings... So. I love my job. Got high praise last week from a colleague I really respect. Finally after years of not knowing wtf to do with my professional life, I have pleasantly found myself in the past few years in a career that really is my element. You know how some people (usually women) worry about finding the right person to meet and marry? Well in a very similar way, after college I felt that way about my career...going from job to job like a serial dater, not willing to commit because I never liked anything enough. I hardly worried about getting married or having kids like a lot of my peers did. My focus and biggest worry was finding a job/career that I would love. At points in my life, I really did feel hopeless that I would find anything.
It was partially my husband's (then boyfriend's) doing when we started dating when I was 28, to inspire me to make changes in my life. It is also partially because of him and his inspiration and support that I am where I am today. Career-wise (although it can be tough) I have never been happier or more fulfilled. And I know there is so much more I can and will accomplish.
Husband is a highly critical person (because he also holds himself to high expectations) with a tough-love approach sometimes. Sometimes...I hate it. But he has given me the support and sometimes the necessary "light a fire under my ass" tactic to get me go for what I want. He is a hard worker and pretty much accomplishes whatever he is determined to do. It's one of the sexiest things in a man, in my opinion. And I respect and love him for that. He inspires me to keep raising the bar for myself in all areas of my life.
Husband just recently shaved off his beard and he looks so fucking cute. OMG. So cute. Like boyish handsome. But I kinda like his facial hair though...especially when it tickles or gently scratches my face or body when he kisses me. Hee hee. Feels nice...
Speaking of cute... We have nurse interns at work today. There's a cute (male) intern here. Jesus. He must be, like, 23 or something. I don't usually find younger men attractive. I feel old and pervy having checked out the dude, being that at one point in my life, I could've been his babysitter or even old enough to be his mom (albeit a young mom). I wonder... Do guys my age (37 or older) feel just as pervy checking out girls 15 years younger than them? Hmm, I would guess not..
Also...no judging me here because of this "crush" on the male intern lol. Just because I've ordered...doesn't mean I can't glance at the menu. :P Y'all know you do it to. Don't even play.
@tonydebont thanks, Tony! It's the Hudson River. And thanks for reading my ramblings. I sometimes forget that people might actually read what I write all the way through. And I suspect most people do not. But I gotta watch myself because sometimes I wanna go off or get really explicit (even more so then my last post about cigarette temptation) and then I realize that there are probably one or two that actually pay attention, I also think that even if most people thought my writing and pictures were subpar, this community is way too kind to tell me so, I think. In fact, I actually believe it can be too encouraging sometimes lol. I am used to listening to people ad nauseum...it's what I do for a living. ANYWAY... This is all to say I am well aware that most people in life really don't listen or want to take the time to pay attention to others. So, I truly appreciate any time you've ever taken to read through my ramblings and, even more so, if you comment. Thank you 😊
I always enjoy reading your ramblings! I figure that because I have been proven to be a very bad judge of age, I place no restrictions on myself as what I am allowed to perv on (within reason of course) :)
@tosee thanks, Tom! No harm in looking, some say.😉
@tomtom thanks! And lol about no restrictions. I'm horrible at guessing people's ages too... I sometimes think that's because I look younger than my peers. So I have a poor way of gauging age. Also...I do think it's more typical for the older man/younger woman thing than the reverse...
@04haze thanks, Lee! I find a comfortable age gap for me is no more than a few years younger than me and no more than 10 years older than me. Although...I'm not too strict about it lol.
