The Late Night Swing

Apparently I get inspired to blog away during the hours of the night when I should be asleep. Hmm, go figure! One can say it's like school...you know, the time in my life where I never understood the concept of doing things at a decent time prior to when something was due. (Sigh!) Oh procrastination, how I have carried you on to the school after life. But hey, my philosophy is: as long as I get things done effectively and efficiently, then my tendency to procrastinate should neither be questioned nor lectured. Right? Yes? Ok!

So in other news, I seem to have a knack of catching colds this year. My immune system has decided to have a fit with me. I really don't know why. I don't recall doing anything to it that would cause such a revolt. I mean, c'mon now, this is the 2nd time I've been sick in the span of, what, 2-3 months? Clearly, I am not pleased. And I have great timing, I tell you. The sore throat and stuffy nose has creeped in at a spectacular time! My little sickly self will be off galavanting in the snow at Big Bear this weekend...a much needed quick getaway with some good friends --- eating, boozing and playing in the snow. But hey, alcohol does kill germs. So it'll be all good ;).

Oh and tonight was a fantastic end to a super long day. I had dinner with Tasha and Gwynn, and oh my are dinners with those two beyond fun! Good food and even better company. When you're laughing so hard that the tears start streaming, you know it was a great time.

That's all for now. I enjoy being spoiled with a 4-day work week after a 3-day weekend! But sadly, Friday still isn't coming fast enough. Haha...jk! :)

'Til next time!

Hello 2008!

So, we're roughly two months into 2008, we have just about passed the, "omg I can't believe it's the new year" stage, and somehow I figured that now is a good time to get back into blogging. Plus, my friend said to start posting again so here we are. (What? I'm an easy sell...what can I say?) Oh and by the way, I decided to delete my other blog since I hardly posted anything and really, I didn't feel like starting up again with those old posts lingering on my page. Like anyone really cares, but I somehow felt the need to explain.

Anyways, life's good and there's actually not much to complain about. I'm happy. I finally like my job and I'm starting to enjoy what I'm doing (surprise, surprise). It took me awhile to get to this point, but I guess all of the tears (literally) and frustrations were well worth it. I mean, we're still going through an adjustment period so I'm working crazy hours and am kind of turning into a little workaholic. But it's weird, though, because I'm not completely hateful that I practically live at work now. Yes it sucks that I'm always there and it sucks even more that I get so drained out, but I guess I try not to bitch too much about it because I don't hate the work. I just wish crisis mode would end already. I really do miss regular work hours. They were nice.

With work and all I feel like I don't have a life yet, I think I am pretty busy most of the time and am perpetually tired. No really, I've been told I looked tired, which I never know how to take, but I totally find myself agreeing anyways. I guess I kind of interpret that as, "hey, you look like crap." Haha yes, I know that's probably not the case, but that's how it feels like sometimes and really, I know I'm not the only one who thinks that. Oh well. I guess I don't know how to explain myself with this whole no life but I'm busy business. So, I'll just leave it at that.

Things are swell, though. I have such amazing people in my life that I love dearly. I'm learning to separate myself from all of the negativity in the world that just kills my spirits and I'm starting to realize that there is no need for me to put time and effort where I'm just going to be brought down. No thank you!

I am just super excited about 2008. I have so much to look forward to that I just hope I'll be able to enjoy it all without having it zoom right past me.

'Til next time!

P.S. I totally scored tickets to Kanye's Glow in the Dark concert featuring Rhianna, N.E.R.D & Lupe Fiasco! Word.
