So, today has been a great day! Currently listening to Verdi. If you have not discovered the love that is Verdi. Please do so. Some of the most intensely epic sounding music! Guaranteed to inspire of the lowliest of creatures!
Just got done with like 4 hours of yard work and decided to update this before my next errand with my Pops! It's such a lovely day out- the wind is blowing slightly and it's the type of hotness where sweat just pours out of you. I love it. Call me stupid- but I feel like every time I sweat a lot, the toxins and bad things in my body just sweat out. In my case (vodka tonics from last night)! :]
Since I've updated, life has only kept on the positive track that it's been on. It's kind of frightening because (in my life) typically when life is on such a positive track, there is bound to be a downward spiral to even things out. I always fly high, hit rock bottom, fly high, etc etc etc. There is hardly ever in between and I wouldn't want it any other way. Living day to day really is the way to do it. I feel it minimizes stress and helps you to enjoy living in the moment which I think we are guilty of letting it get away from us. Ok, enough about my philosophies of life.
Ah, there is something that I've missed. Philosophy. I really need to start reading again. If anyone could suggest a certain writer or document, I'd be much obliged. I'm curious to read from any movement, I'm not picky. Being out of school is odd. I feel myself get a little more stupid with each passing day. I need to be constantly learning. Otherwise what is life? I feel it is such a dangerous thing to just exist. Indifference is the breeding ground for a lifeless life. Ah, to me, that is the scariest thing one's life can become. Okay, really now that is quite enough! :]
I know this post like probably most of them will just be a jumbling of my thoughts thrown together in sub-par sentences. I just am loving the life that is unfolding before me, I wish I could say I had more to do with it but it's just one of those things that is happening.
Well, remember that job I applied for in the Everglades? I GOT IT!!!! But, I turned it down. I know I said that for me living day to day is the best way and it is but sometimes you have to make that hard decision. The one is isn't as much fun as you would want your life to be. I turned it down because I already have a job that doesn't do much for my future. Why would I leave my life here to do something that really wouldn't be anything other then fun? Ahhh, it was a really hard move to make but I know it was the right thing to do. With that being said, I've gotten serious about the job hunt with my current degree. I looked into nutrition programs here in Florida and there are really only continuing education programs. No graduate programs or even undergraduate. (Can a person have 2 undergraduate degrees???) I'm so hesitant to go back to school anyways. So maybe this is for the best. And I'm only applying for jobs that would be relatively enjoyable and would be good fits for me and have real salaries. LinkedIn is a great website and tool for job seekers.
This week again has flown by. Hanging out more and more with O.F. He makes me pretty damn happy. It's really good what we've got going on!
Speaking of old friends. I have recently reconnected with a very sweet girl from my past. We were best friends in high school and part of college but as many of these stories go, we were too immature to remain good friends. We had a falling out but now, it's all different. We've started to reconnect and I am more then happy to say that we have regained our friendship and it is no longer a thing of our past. We hung out on Monday, got yogurt and dinner and decided it was safe to take our friendship to the "next level". We spent the whole day together at the beach. It was so much fun. What a great time we had. We hung out with her friend also!
Afterwards, O.F and I grabbed some dinner and had a wonderful time at Urban Flats. What a good fun place.
I'm not going to recap my entire life for the past week but suffice it to say that it's been good and that my Mama had a great Mother's Day.
Life is good...
Smile, it's a way to fool yourself into thinking you're truly happy.
