Dear Life

You've lead me here and now I feel as though I am stuck.
I think it was catching up with people I hadn't seen in so many years
that's made me realize that I really need to get a move on.
I just don't know how anymore.
I feel as though i'm at a place where i'm not growing, not learning,
not becoming who I want to be.
Jealous of some? Yes. Sad? Yes.
I have all these crazy thoughts running through my head,
I just don't know how to get there.

why does it seem so hard?
Is it supposed to be like this...............I wish I was a better saver.
I'd pack all my crap and go somewhere

There's a lot to look forward to, i've just got to open my eyes and look a little harder

Dear...

Dear....

I miss you so very much! More than maybe you know, i'm not really sure

Dear....

You are an amazing man, and i'm glad you are still doing what you love (well, I assume you love it)

Dear....

I miss dancing in the rain/snow with you, I can't imagine that part of my life without you

Dear...

I miss your friendship, I know I haven't lost it but it's not the same when you live on opposite sides of the states!

Dear...

Thinking about you makes me sad that we weren't able to remain friends, what happened between us?

Dear...

I didn't always understand you, but you made things much more interesting and I always respected your off beat ways!

Dear...

You were an inspiration, my last year of college would not have been the same without you

Dear...

I've always loved that we were able to remain friends, my life was made better for knowing you

not so much joy

so i'm in a slump
a big one
a big depressed slump

it's causing me to not get any work done
it's causing me to not want to do anything

it's a work/life slump
it's not good.

is admitting it the first step to getting out of this
dark and twisty place?

(yeah...I quoted grey's anatomy...)

The Julie/Julia Project

So mom and I went to the movies this afternoon.
Julie & Julia
It was really good. very funny actually.
Meryl was amazing, so was Amy
and how can you not love Stanley?!

Haven't decided if I want to see GI Joe
I think I need someone to go with other than mom
(a certain someone would be best...but he's too far away)

I need to clean, but I don't want to, so I probably wont
that's how it goes
