Playing Catch-Up

September 24. That's the last day I posted! It's so interesting to come back and read through all of these things that I've written... what I was thinking, dreaming, doing.

So much has changed since I last wrote! I've finished my first semester, and I'm getting ready to head into a new one. I'm quitting my job (finally!) and looking for another. I have new dreams, new ideas, new thoughts. I feel older, and younger at the same time.

Time. It's so odd. I can drag through an eight-hour day, and then what seems like two of those same days later, it's been a whole week! It's so sporadic and random, and most days I just want to throw it out the window!

But look. It's January 8th. And since I haven't really made any New Year's Resolutions, I think I'll start now. I resolve to write on here more faithfully. Not really for anyone's sake but my own. Because I think writing is my saving grace sometimes. When I can't just face the day, it helps to just sit and let all the words that are in my head come out, so I can face them head-on, look them right in the eyes.

I was visiting a friend last night, and she told me how she's been keeping a blog. And then I remembered, Hey! I have one too! She encouraged me to start up again... so here I am!

And you know what? It feels good :)

Thats a good idea, posting new years resolutions onto the blog! I think I'll do that! If i haven't started them yet does it still count as failing them...hmmm. I do agree about this being better than texting, so much more information and you get the who story, not just the 180 character version....Loves ya!

I'm so happy to have your writing! You are good girl! I also loved in your profile how you are a lazy perfectionist. Can I be your sister somehow? That's exactly how I feel at times.
I was good to spend time with you the other night. We'll do it again soon!
