Working Wives & Bachelorettes: Is time really flying?

Is it me or is January just flying by? I seriously feel like it was last week that we were celebrating New Years. This weather certainly does not help the fact that I can't keep my mind straight on what month we are even in! Can you believe it was almost 60 yesterday in Pittsburgh? Hellllllo! It is January...when it is supposed to be blizzarding and icing, making my morning commute hell. Since when do we get thunderstorm warnings in January? Welcome to 2012 where all strange things are going to happen.

I swear come every Tuesday I am wishing it was Friday. Sure, we all do because Friday is much better than Tuesday. For me, there isn't any reason in particular that I wish it was Friday, besides the obvious, but I just feel like once I get to Wednesday that Monday and Tuesday are just a blur and Thursday just flies by so Friday can get here. Is time going faster than ever?

This year will actually be a longer year than normal thanks to Leap Year and the fact that the controllers of universal time are actually adding a second of time at the end of one of the months. Forgive me but I can't exactly remember which month and the Google machine isn't giving me anything, but I want to say that it is going to happen on the last day of May going into June. The world clock will basically be held for 1 second, so June will get here 1 second later than normal. No big deal for us. We won't even notice, but this is due to the rotation of the Earth and the sun, etc. etc. etc. space geeks.

The point is, do you remember when it felt like Christmas would never get here? When it was forever until your birthday or the last day of school? Now time just slips away when I want it to slow down the most. I want to enjoy this time in my life, when I am still young. I don't want to rush to 50 anytime soon even though I am halfway there. Actually, we will be lucky if we make it past 2012 since the world is supposed to end this year. So that explains all of the strange happenings...

Is your life just passing you on by these days like mine? How do we make it slow down? I don't know how to get out of my normal Monday through Friday routine to break the time-space-continum thingy since I wake up, go to work, get home, do a couple things around the house, have dinner, shower and go back to sleep to do it all over again. Thank God for the weekend. But can it get here faster, please?
