The other day I got a weird call on my cell phone. Now typically if I do not recognize a phone number that pops up on my caller ID I don't answer it. But this number had called me several times before and I was curious, so I answered it. It was some automated voice telling me this was my last chance to update my account information with them. I'm quite sure it was an attempt to get information from me that shouldn't be given out.

Today I was checking out a site where you can talk about your annoying phone calls that you get. You get to leave a comment with the phone number that called and explain your story. I didn't save the phone number that called me otherwise I'd be adding it to the list. The next time I get a phone call like this I'm saving the number to add it to the list.

I have no idea what is the matter with me lately. I feel anxious all of the time. We don't have any major problems. Of course we do have our problems but nothing out of the ordinary. But for some reason I feel incredibly anxious. I make myself sick to my stomach at least once a day worrying about nonsense things. I can't stand feeling this way all of the time anymore, it's driving me crazy. I don't know what to do about it.

I do not usually talk about politics on my blog. I've been watching the Republican National Convention this week and I also watched some of the Democratic National Convention so I have politics on my mind. Honestly, I'm usually pretty much republican. But this year I don't really know who I'm going to vote for, I haven't made up my mind yet. If you're going to be voting for Obama and you'd like to show your support you might be interested in these Gigantic "See-Thru" Obama Stickers.

I've cut back on my blogging a lot lately. I had just spread myself way too thin. I think it works out best with blogging if you have several niche blogs rather than one blog with a whole bunch of posts everyday. The problem is that with several niche blogs it can get really hard to keep up. Part of my problem is that I try to keep up with the comments that people leave me by responding back on their blogs with a follow up comment. While I do keep keep comments closed on this blog for personal reasons I get several comments on some of my other blogs. I have decided I will no longer feel obligated to leave comments back which will leave me more time to do my actual blogging.
