I've been writing in this blog a lot more frequently because I've been trying to figure a lot of things out lately. It's not that everything has gotten more complicated, it's just that I've decided that now is the time to clear away all of the old cobwebs, and now I'm confused about what to keep and what to throw away. It's not an easy decision by a long shot. But I know that I'll make the right decisions. Or at least, I know that I'll get by with whatever I choose.
I'm going running in four and a half hours with D and E(2). I haven't done this since the beginning of May when I was still at college and utilizing our free gym. But I'm really excited about it. I can't wait. Even though I'm not going to go to sleep tonight and then going to run three miles (?!?!). Good thing I spend most of my time sleeping the day away.
My new job has proven an interesting experience for me. While I'm not really into what I do, I'm learning a lot about people. I'm still terrified, though, and I think it'll be a good growing-up thing for me to learn how to get past that fear. I've always been irrational about my shyness. In school, the complaint that I heard from teachers wasn't "she acts out and is irresponsible," but instead "she's a good student, but needs to speak up more." I'm tired of being that girl. I'm ready to become someone else. Besides, I need to be able to sell my novel, right?
Speaking of my novel, the first draft is still scheduled to be finished by the end of July (crosses fingers and prays). There are always complications that could cause it to extend into August, but I'm really, really pushing for it to be done by the time E(1), M, and I move into our new apartment. I need to be ready to move on with my life. So by Christmas, it will be completely and totally finished. And ready to send to publishers. We'll see if that goes anywhere.
Lost In Normandy is reuniting this weekend!!!!!!!!!! We're not going to be playing anywhere, but we'll still be together. I haven't seen E(1) since I came back from college. E(1) is getting us tickets for the Jonas Sees In Color concert :D If you haven't checked them out yet, you should. My favorite of their songs is "Loose Threads" but they also have great tracks like "Devil In The City," "Avalanche," and "West Coast." All of their songs are great, but those are my favorites. <3>
I'm booking train tickets for LIN's trip to PA with J. It's going to be EPIC AWESOMENESS. We're so crazy. And we're taking a *train.* SOOO awesome!
