so now i'll take a chance on this thing we may have started..intentional or not. don't think we saw it coming

I know. I quoted Katy Perry, eh. What is the world coming to? But I happened to be running this morning and this song came on and it seemed apropos. Okay, I know, enough about AVN.

So here's what else is going on in my life. I feel so purposeless lately. I'm working retail in a costume, I'm not sure much could be worse. For right now, I've decided to start applying for jobs that I fit the criteria of. A lot of non-profit and governmental work. I'm pretty excited about a few of them but it's hard to be super excited when chances are, I won't even get called in for an interview. For whatever reason.I may be under qualified but my passion to help people and and my fire for a cause that I believe in would make up for any of that. But needless to say, no one gives me that chance. I actually just sent my resume to APPLEONE yesterday. They're an employment agency and I need the cash flow and a job that is challenging. They'll be getting in touch with me ASAP. (Oh and I don't think I got that job in event management, which I'm kind of glad about. I don't want to further myself in my current company. That being said, it would have been a fun and more lucrative job.) Unfortunately there is not much of a market here in Florida for anything I want to do, all directions point to either New York, California or DC. I definitely do not want to live in DC. The other two would be cool. But my life, my loves and my Florida is here. So I guess we'll see. Life always needs an adventure.

Speaking of adventure. I feel like in meeting AVN, I have become myself again. Before I was kind of drift less, boring, and filling the status quo (which is never fun). So, I guess thanks!

But, yeah, life has been pretty rad. *insert bouncing souls reference here*. I've been spending a lot of time with friends, new and old. I went thrifting yesterday and the day before and found some great finds. I'm still on the hunt for a used copy of Tropic of Cancer but that's part of the fun.

Eh, so much to my dismay, I'm still at home. But I just got my credit card statement and it's like wtf. Seriously I don't know how I spend all this money on things I don't need. Especially food. Like, really? I have a pantry and a private chef (WHY do I buy food?) Granted I did buy a guitar this period but still. It's okay, I'm just gonna have to keep on top of things. That's what she said!!! But really.
I have been up to a lot in the past month or so.
I've been running ( and now I'm up to 9lbs that I've lost.), I've started reading again. I found myself becoming ignorant and not being on top of the intellectual ball so I'm fixing that. I'm working on East of Eden. Great so far. I've started to listen to NPR again and reading the NY Times online. Because, again, I was falling short when it came to current events and I want to have opinion on things, not just based on what others think. Eh, and I've been drinking a lot lately. I get so enamored with getting tipsy for a small while and then I get done with it. I just think of what it is doing to my body. So, I'm done for a bit.

One thing though that I've given up is baking. I need start that up again. I think I will. Maybe I'll make a cake to bring to the beach tomorrow. I haven't been cooking either. Ai.

Went to the beach yesterday. I really love it there. There is nothing better then the shore. I love napping and listening to all that's around, people watching is at it's best, and I love swimming and frolicking in the surf.

Ran into Old Friend the other day. It was awkward. Especially since I didn't even recognize him at first. But coo.

Okay I have things to do. Going to 730 am yoga tomorrow before the beach. I need it. It's been a while. This is gonna be a good weekend!!!! hooray. hopefully with no money spending.!
keep up the good times champs!

  1. Maybe you could play your guitar on the street corner... to raise money for the credit card bill :)
