Confession: I almost let this little guy expire

Greetings! It’s been a while. Actually, an inexcusably long time since I’ve done anything with this blog. I’ve been ignoring notifications about my domain expiring soon for about a month now. I’m not sure really sure why, but I did. I was almost okay with letting it expire but then I got one last notification stating that it had expired and I needed to act quickly or I’d have to pay a big fee to retrieve it and something about that tugged at my heart a little. So, I decided to renew.

This thing needs a little work but I could probably put it to use! I’m always amazed when I find out that random people find this blog but really, it’s not that hidden sooooooo….

Life has definitely changed a lot since July of 2010. Not that my life is glamorous or that I’m even remotely interesting.

Right now I’m working on:
- Loving more
- Judging less
- Letting go of worry

There are a few huge stresses in my life right now but I don’t want to go into detail. Consider this my prayer request if you happen to stumble upon this nonsense.

The other day my co-worker and I were talking about how some days you just feel like you’ve been crapped on by a giant bird. I’ve been feeling that a lot lately. As we were discussing metaphorical bird poop, another co-worker chimed in, “Guys, I know that you are speaking figuratively but there was honestly a week when I lived in Hawaii and I actually kept getting pooped on by birds and a gecko.” I have to admit that I was intrigued. How does one get crapped on by a gecko anyway? The answer: Apparently it was on top of a bus shelter that she was waiting at. Needless to say, this confession temporarily threw me out of my downer mood and I laughed harder than I’ve laughed in a long time. Silly little things keep me going.

I didn’t mean to write so much about poo. Oh well. Let it be known that I’ll be back!

I love glee but..

Glee music is not that good. There aren’t even notable parts where you’d even believe that it’s the cast singing. You could totally just change the cover and market it as Kidz Bop 97! Oh don’t even get me started on Kidz Bop…..

As far as TV shows with soundtracks go…at least Hannah Montana had original songs.

I have to admit

I’m not very fond of any of the girls in this cycle of ANTM. Last season I fell in LOVE with Nicole from the first time I saw her awkwardness. This season, I just feel like the girls are blaaaaaaaaaaaah.

Krista is so annoying. BUT, this is an amazing photo.

I still hope she doesn’t win.

Oh hey, who are you?

I barely recognize myself lately and not in a good way. It’s probably not anything that anybody on the outside could catch on to but I just feel so conscious of  every flaw on my body and every bad thought that crosses my mind. I’m cynical and negative from time to time and it’s funny how much more powerful negativity is than positivity. Laughter only lasts briefly, but a sad thought could ruin a whole evening.

Point is, I was thinking. I know, right? God has so much planned for me. I can’t always be trying to rush everything BUT I can’t sit around and wait because it’s not healthy.

On the other hand, I need to answer when opportunity presents itself.

This probably doesn’t make much sense to anyone. It doesn’t make much sense to me either.

The point that I’m trying to make is something needs to change. I don’t know what or where to start.

In other good news, I think that I’ve decided that when my lease is up come end of August that I am going to move to downtown Tacoma. It’s closer to my work and still has that city vibe that I crave and it’s a whole lot cheaper than Seattle. My gorgeous and amazing friend Katie has a cute little apartment there. I want to live in her building so we can be neighbors. STOKED.

Though I have to admit that sometimes having the company of roommates is wonderful, I think it’s time for me to get my own place. I’m looking into studios and one bedrooms now. I feel like I have forever to figure this stuff out, but truth be told, I only have about 3 months left here. I’ve got some serious work to do!

And I’m just going to say it. I’m stoked for tomorrow for this reason:
