This article inspired me....it was not inpirible written and didn't say anything mind blowing...but i realized that just thefact that i was reading it meant I was looking to grow-up...or looking fr the easy way, shoud I say. It disgusted me enough to take action. If I want someting, the only person that can help it is me...go get 'em...cause no one else will (or someine else will)

I have such high hopes for Saturdays

If I were to write today, it would go a little something like this:

"""""OK, this is it, today is the day! Izzy and I have been laying in bed all day long (and I thought getting a dog would help me get up earlier, but Izzy happens to be a nap-lover like myself) and missed all kinds of opportunities to get things done, go on an adventure or do ANYTHING! How do I break the cycle? I had such high hopes last night. I don't want to conquer all the chores, organize my whole life, visit every museum in the area, read every new magazine/book I own or make plans with everyone I have ever know.

I just want to accomplish something (or feel like I have the will power to get up before 3:30 in the afternoon. We have been awake since 8:30, people! why can't I summon the will to get up and have a good saturday?)"""""

But, if we're being honest here, that's what I would write EVERY Saturday....I need to break the cycle. I want to change...and so I'm off to try.

Thirties

Someone (who is very close in age to me) told me (without any asking/prompting) that they thought I was in my thirties (which I am not; not even close either)..... really? Am I offended because he aged me by 10 years, give or take, or am I pleased because maybe its a comment on the authority/respect he might be basing it off of?...hmmm.....

AND btw, since when is is proper to ask someone you've known for 4 days, in your shared place of work, who is a FEMALE, "How old are you?"...seriously, the girl thing alone should keep that and the "How much do you weigh?" question at bay, right?!


***Edit: This was in no way meant as a post on how being 30 was sooo old or the worst thing in the world, but was frustration about how the I felt the incident was a bit awkward/inappropriate the due to the person, setting and circumstance of it. (:

The vet...i think it scares me more than it scares her. I cry every time we go. Yesterday i thought she broke her leg....turns out she is perfectly fine. I stilled cried the whole time....

naps, kids, izzy

I don't have babies. I have a 12 year old shetlie....don't think i can handle kids that don't sleep as well as Izzy does ;) we love our naps around here... :)
