The Shoe Fits

So I am unusually chipper about this Monday. Why you ask? My sister is going back home (love her as I may, she is a handful), my parents are officially moved (two hours away!) and I finally get to be alone with my husband! Yah!

So, we managed to catnap my cat, Artemis. He is the love of my life! We’ve had him since he was barely able to walk straight. He has the most beautiful kitty eyes! I am definitely looking forward to snapping some photos of him. (Oh yea did I mention I lost my camera at Six Flags in June?…). We also have another kitty, Ashton. My sister conned me (it wasn’t so difficult) and he is by far the cutest little thing. I absolutely love cats and my dogs are definitely getting along with him so that’s always nice. School will be starting again and I am unsure how I feel about that. I’m excited but dreading it, yet excited because it’s one step closer to being able to teach.

Well I am at least doing better about blogging. sorta. ha.

TTFN

I never cease come up with random blog titles. Sometimes they describe my mood or sometimes I can only think of a certain phrase and so I use it.

The last two weeks have been crazy! I’m basically working 40 hours a week (really more than that). I literally get home, stay up for about 2-3 hours then go to bed. I think the earliest I’ve gone to bed is 9:30! That’s early for me! But it’s worth it, given what I am doing (camp coordinator for a girl’s camp – check out the article they wrote about us! I’m in it). It’s been great to be busy and have the weeks go by fast because I am so ready to start school again. The closer it gets the closer I am to being able to teach!

Lately, my mind has been in spacey-space land. I have forgotten things, spaced out in front of people and totally freaked out about something so random. I think that the stress of work is bearing down on me. Luckily my youngest sister goes back home this weekend so that will be one less stress. I really enjoyed my time with her though; we’ve definitely grown close again.

As of late, I’ve been thinking about the sad state of affairs regarding my friends, both online and off. I am very concerned that my lack of motivation to keep communications open will result in my being friendless. I’ve also been thinking about how I “long” (because is it really longing?) for a guy friend. As odd and possible assinine as that sounds, I’ve found that my closest friends have been males. And all those male friends have been lost in some way or another. One passed away and the other just started to be a jerk. So I wonder, if I am not meant to have close guy friends or any friends at all. It’s a depressing thought but it’s something that I have been pondering. It makes sense when I think about it but now writing about it, I feel even more confused as ever.

Well one last thing, a little rant if you will. [rant]I am getting really tired of reading the comments in news sites or blogs that are so ridiculous it makes me really doubt the state of the human condition. ARGH! [/rant]

Till Next Time.

When it comes to blogging, I have my off days and on days. Obviously the last month has been on long off day. I really want to blog everyday, so I guess I’ll just have to bore you with asinine updates everyday

Otherwise, life in Thassy-land is great. I think. Nothing super bad has happened but nothing super good has happened either. I’m still broke, still taking classes (though I’m done for the rest of the summer, woohoo!) and desperately trying to stay sane.

Though, the “light” in my future now is my new diet/lifestyle change (Thanks to Caity) I decided that I am going to become a vegetarian. It’s going to be hard but I don’t think it will be all that hard. My reasons involve being healthy but also I think all this animal rights stuff is getting to me. We’ve (oh yeah, Marcus is also going vegetarian against his will) decided we’ll let ourselves splurge twice a month on chicken. Though we are going to be allowed to eat fish, for that protein (in addition to supplements). Whew, I hope this goes well. I think making this change will force me to eat healthier too. Plus I LOVE vegetables and I think I am going to have fun figuring out what kinds of new vegetables to try out.

I know this is a shorter post, but I am also posting a private post too. So registerso you can see it. I haven’t added anyone on in a long time so I hope there are no glitches. If so, let me know on twitter or email.

TTFN!
