Running on E....

I've been so tired lately hence the lack of posts. I worked 14 days straight then went to Miami for a split second (which was a blast by the way). I wish I could have stayed a little longer though. Maybe I'll try to go back at the end of the summer.

10 Sunny Ways to Make Your Day a Good One

I received this in an email and I thought I'd share:

Ten Sunny Ways to Make Your Day a Good One!

A good day is when I wake up remembering that a good day happens by CHOICE not chance!

A good day is when I live the day in the present, being grateful for the little things in life.

A good day is a day that I look back on and smile, because I allowed myself to be open to something new without realizing it at the time.

A good day is when I can feel anger, pain, sadness, etc. but not let it take over.

A good day is when I relax and go with the flow.

A good day is drama free. (My choice, again.)

A good day is when I'm aware that I'm a kind and compassionate person and treat myself that way.

A good day is when I don't use excuses to paralyze my thoughts and dreams or allow fear to keep me from stepping out and doing something I believe in.

A good day is connecting with people who are on the same self exploration journey as I am.

A good day is the realization that EVERY DAY IS A GOOD DAY no matter what happens!

It's Saturday........

The weather has finally broken. I'm so excited! I've come to the realization that my tastes are changing once again. I feel like I go through this cycle every few years. I remember having this convo with one of my gfs in her dorm room maybe 3 or 4 years ago. I'm more into natural simple looks and classic clothing/accessories. I'm not really into brights and a lot of makeup (especially the colored eyeshadow unless I'm going out) anymore. It's not that I don't like those things anymore it's just a matter of not having the time to go through all that in the mornings.

I can't believe I'm up this early. I was dead tired when I got home last night. Work was slow so I left around maybe 11:30 or so. It doesn't really make a difference to me as long as I come home with some money. I guess I should get up and get dressed. Gotta run my errands before this afternoon since I have to be to work at 8. Holla...

Date #3

Well we went out to dinner again last night. It was a spur of the moment thing so it may not really be date #3 but whatever. I'm surprised it's gone this far. The last guy I went out with stopped calling a few weeks after Date #2. Never did find out why that was. Maybe he didn't want to spring for a v-day gift? His loss... But dinner was alright. He's starting to get clingy. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing right now. Still in limbo... Gotta get dressed for work. Toodles...

Busy Weekend...

They always say that you get the most done when you stay on the move... I never quite understood that saying but now I get it. I am accomplishing more being out and about then I was sitting in the house most evenings. I really want to pick my dance class back up but I don't know if I'd be able to swing it. I've been staying really tired lately.

B's birthday is today. He's still on his trip and won't be back until the weekend. I stopped past thursday to drop his present off. We ended up hanging out and going out to dinner. Oh how I wish things would just fall into place with him. IDK what the problem is. He loves me, I love him -- we get along, we talk and see each other all the time... so what gives?!?!? Maybe he's just enjoying the single life? I mean it is the first time he's been single in like 4 years. I guess I can't blame him for enjoying his freedom. I just can't help but wonder what he's thinking sometimes...

I had another date Saturday with T. We went to Dave and Buster's and had a lot of fun. I think he's starting to grow on me. I wasn't so sure about him at first. It's not that I don't like him, it's just that... well I don't know. I guess he just wasn't my cup of tea at first. He's a bit older than me but I never would have guessed that from looking at him. He's a nice guy. He's very sweet. He hasn't done anything to make me dislike him at this point, but I just don't know about us. Or even him for that matter. I hope he isn't looking to settle down anytime soon. I don't think I can handle another one of those relationships. Not right now anyway...

Randomness Part 1....

This is probably going to be the most random post ever but it's all good. Not much going on here but I do have to say that the weather this afternoon was absolutely divine. It rained all morning and then the sun came out. It was 70 degrees this afternoon. I can't wait until the weather breaks for good. I have some cute new spring stuff I can't wait to wear.

Work is well work... It turns out our office is not moving down to the 3rd floor in May like we planned. We're going to be moving to a whole new site now. I'm not feeling it because now I'll have to get on the highway to go to work. It's a little further away so BOO.

I so miss my hair. I can't wait to get it straightened and trimmed on the 15th. That'll mark 2 years since my last relaxer. Hopefully I will have made a decent amount of progress with my natural hair. Getting over this shoulder length hump is taking longer than I expected. I love my hair though. I'm looking forward to wash and go's in the summertime. I think I want to get it highlighted again. My highlights from September have pretty much grown out. They're only at the very ends of my hair.

Ah well... I'm off to detangle, wash and deep condition. Toodles...
