ugh
Sometimes I feel like a glass of wine/therapy session with Carry Bradshaw would answer a lot of the questions I have.
Ugh
Does the fact that she does not exist make me pathetic?
Mantra of the Day: Drop Control
Do you really need to know everything that is going to happen in the next minute, hours, day, week, months, years? Can you drop your urge of controlling what is next?
And do not stress over things you cannot control. Doing this is pointless and extremely unhealthy.
Breathe in deeply. Ease your shoulders. Let go of your need of control.Let it be. Let life surprises you.

I had mothers remorse this morning...
Usually when I leave my house for school or work, our precious little Rooster (me and the boy’s lab pup) is put in his house to sleep and chew on bones till one of us returns. The boy normally leaves a bit before I do in the morning, but today he did not so Rooster was left out to roam the house and chase the cat.
As I was getting in my car to leave for work I saw his head pocking between...

This sweet idea for my ‘On the Go’ self! I am going to pre-make these each Sunday so I am sure to eat a healthy inexpensive salad each day for lunch. All you have to do is shake it up! And, it looks so pretty!
In a couple of weeks, the boy and I are investing in a brand new mattress! We have a nice one now, but I’m all about utilizing my ‘Out with the Old, In with the...
The Guest House
This being human is a guest house. Every morning a new arrival. A joy, a depression, a meanness, some momentary awareness comes as an unexpected visitor. Welcome and entertain them all! Even if they’re a crowd of sorrows, who violently sweep your house empty of its furniture, still, treat each guest honorably. He may be clearing you out for some new delight. The dark thought,...

2012 Resolutions: Never to late to start something...
Continue healthy living. Mentally and physically. Dive into my vegan lifestyle more.
Go on a vacation with the boy.
Save money. I have a great job that works with school but I am ready to invest in my future.
Do well in school. Attend summer classes and get this over with!
Run a marathon. Or a half marathon. Or just run!
Donate my time to a good cause/volunteer. I live in a city where...
mondays... ugh
Yawn… My 9 am human origins class was canceled 15 minutes before the start of it. And I stayed up late studying for a grueling exam we were suppose to have.
BRIGHTSIDE: No class till noon. Plenty of time to do other work and play on the internet. And more time to study for the test.
DOWNSIDE: I could still be sleeping and continuing my dream about a talking dog, winning the lottery and...
WatchThis is SO me on numerous levels.
1) This will be how I react when I get to meet an elephant for the first time. I think they are the most glorious animals in the world. When I was younger I would apply for positions at elephant refuges begging for any jobs. Including being a pooper scooper! Whenever I see an elephant I cry and I can’t help it. I think I must have been one in my past life.

“Action Expresses Priorities”
– Mahatma Gandhi
I drank a bottle of red last night while I:
1) connected with old friend in alaska
2) listened to sister telling me to be a strong woman
3) heard him speak and wanting to punch his fucking face
4) watched My So Called Life Episode 1 on Hulu
5) saw my parents off to Jamaica a 3am as I finished my last glass
Now, I have to be at work in thirty minutes.
My wine stained lips, George man and I think more cuddle time is necessary.

… so true.
the boy and I watched this during our lazy Sunday. And I was reminded why this is one of my favorite films. It’s just so calm. My mood doesn’t fight between angst or fright or any other emotions that come from films with so much conflict. There is such a slow interaction between the characters. And lets face it, Bill Murray is the shit. I love how in every movie he is...
Still I rise
You may write me down in history With your bitter, twisted lies, You may trod me in the very dirt But still, like dust, I’ll rise. Does my sassiness upset you? Why are you beset with gloom? ‘Cause I walk like I’ve got oil wells Pumping in my living room. Just like moons and like suns, With the certainty of tides, Just like hopes springing high, Still I’ll rise. Did...
HAPPY
I am in such a HAPPY and JOYIOUS mood right now! I am so THANKFUL for everything I have in my life! FRIENDS, FAMILY, HEALTH, A HOME, A PUP, LOVE, NEW ADVENTURES… the list goes on!
They are all in place and rocking my world!
I am in the moment and in love with life!

lana del rey is on mtv. fuck! only a matter of time i fucking guess!
bummed….
After saying that, I dont want to seem like a music jerk. I just liked having her to myself. but since she is going to have like 1 super famous song and then be forgotten because of her musical feature during a sad scene of some fucked up reality show, most likely involving snooky (sp) or some real world...

Monday
Today I woke up early and sent the boy and the other little boy off to work. Then I made delicious coffee with my new french press. After that I got ready for my first day of class at IUPUI after transferring from my previous college.
I was nervous, excited, proud and eager to proceed with my day and it was as great as I had hoped. Right now, I am so enthusiastic about being successful in school...

I don’t understand how me not drinking alcohol makes me the ‘buzz kill’. I am tired of drinking all the time… AND getting shit from people for not…It’s like they are annoyed I am being responsible and good to my body??!! Ugh
It isn’t healthy, it makes me exhausted and I don’t want to do it every day of the week or to have a good time.
I don’t...
smelling dog shit and not being able to find any is extremely discouraging.
