How very odd..

I seem to write A LOT less when I am happy and doing alright, compared to when I am depressed and having a rough time.

I just want to say, for the moment, that I have been hanging out with two of the awesome-est people that I've had the pleasure of meeting in a very long time. I have only really known them for a few weeks but have gotten more closer to them than I have to people that I have known for years. And much faster than I usually do!

I can't believe it's been since the 6th since I've written anything, but come to think about it, that's when I started really talking to Brent and Adam and trying to be more socialable at work. Shortly after that is when I met Jaclynn and really hit it off with her. My relations with her and 'office hubby' are really explaining to me different feelings I've been having over the years and my different tastes. Interesting.. I have many thoughts rolling around in my head, but I'll let them keep molding into complete-ness by themselves and share them as they do so.

I just wanted to say that, "Yes, I am okay." and "Yes, I am doing quite fine!"... and, "No, I haven't gotten back with my ex and have no intentions on doing so or even continueing a friendship. I want to move forward and up. I just don't feel like I can do so if I let him back in."

This was a fun night....

Tonight found me happy and content. I went over to Adam's to hang out. Yes, we broke up a week ago, but have been gradually talking more and more via text and Facebook. We decided to get together and watch a movie or two and just hang out as friends.

It was totally nice and fun, to hang out and be just together in the same room without fighting and ill feelings. His new house helped with the atmosphere, somehow. A very, very nice place!

We sat and talked about things, and then started The Wedding Singer-an Adam Sandler movie, just in case you didn't know...(Which seems silly to me, because in my mind, who WOULDN'T know that???) Had to stop it in the middle for dinner, which was chili with bread/butter. That was very, very good! A bit too spicy for my taste, but still good. We sat and talked more at the table, and talked... and talked... Talking is sometimes under-rated, I think, after that experience. Of course, most of the time it is over-rated, but that is another story!

We went downstairs and finished the movie and then put in Bulletproof, another Sandler movie. I forgot how much I like that one! All in all, the evening was very good and I enjoyed it immensely. In fact, I believe that he is going to come over and hang out with me at my house this weekend and I'm finally going to sit down long enough to watch 'Twilight' which I've been wanting to see forever, but haven't yet.

Go figure, I was a fan of the books before they became the 'in' thing, and I didn't get to read the first one until all of them were out. I still haven't made it all the way through the series, because I haven't had the money to buy the fourth one yet. And I haven't seen the movie yet. And I think it is the second one that is now in theatres? (Is it yet? I would love to see it on the big screen, but I don't think that will happen, unfortunately. Oh well, it's much more economical to buy it on DVD than to pay the same amount of money for two ticket and only be able to see it once!

Anywho. I'm kinda starting to ramble now, so I think it's time for me to go crash.

How was your weekend, dear reader? Was it good? I hope so!

A new year..

..and a new beginning is upon us. That one time a year that everyone has a chance together to renew and grow as a person and a society through resolutions. I've been thinking about it and thinking about it, and there are so many things that I want to change and work on that it was very hard to narrow it down to a manageable amount.

Here's what I've come up with so far:

1.) Be my own person. No longer try to be something to suit someone else just because I want them happy. If I'm unhappy, then life just sucks. If I want to go out with friends, or just by myself, I will.

2. Speaking of going out, I want to make it to many, many more shows than I made it to last year. At least two a month if at all possible. Live music rocks, and I want to enjoy it as much as possible.

3. Be on time to work at least 90-95 percent of the time. It can't be that hard, can it? I'm a horrible procrastinator, and time just seems to slip away from me. Five minutes to me turns out to be an hour according to the clock. Sometimes, it's the other way around. Five minutes to everyone else feels like an hour to me. I wonder if this is how other people perceive time? Or I'm just kooky?

4. Get started on educating myself for a new career. I have one picked out - Administrative Assistant. I have the course chosen, and know where I am going through. I just have to save up the money to do so.

5. And of course, the requisite resolution- eat better and exercise more. I definitely can do more of both - Buy more produce and healthier food and less mac and cheese/hot dogs, as well as actually use my treadmill and exercise equipment

Wish me luck, dear readers. And good luck in your personal endeavors to better year, better health and better you!
