perspectives

I spent a long weekend on the east coast visiting a couple of awesome friends and their kids. The trip itself was awesome, I'll talk about that later when I post the pictures.

The fact that I traveled a long distance by myself and pulled myself away from all of my attachments gave me some new perspective.

1) I am actually capable of taking care of myself. I know what I'm doing. I rely on others too much.

2) Real friends are the ones that I would text/call right before I take off and right as I touch down. 2 + my folks.

3) I really do love animals. And they love me. Allergies be damned. Maybe Lyle was right, I'm going to be that cat lady. Except I don't smoke, don't know where I threw those pink bunny slippers, and possibly have a life.

4) I hate being a burden to anybody, and try to not ask for anything.

5) I really like seeing my toenails painted. It actually looks good.

6) I'm done with settling. I deserve so much more then what I've been getting. So, person that will never know the meaning of being romantic, I'm cutting you loose. You can go back to hanging out with your scrawny ex and I won't feel a tinge of jealousy.

7) I hang on to too many things. Need to clean up a bit. Did a little bit on my desk. Cut out a lot on my blog layout. I like the look of clean.

8) I finally got a picture of a real macchiato. *see banner* Sometimes perfect little things comes to you when you're not looking for it.

That's all I can think of for now.

  1. I *think* I heard your txt come into Shawn around 2am or so our time...must have been when you got in. Of course our weather gets hectic when it's time to fly out, huh? :( I hope you didn't have to sit inside that stuffy plane too long waiting to take off.

    I'm positive I'll end up being a cat lady one day...wait...I already have three cats. D'oh!

    The blog is lookin' good. I like the gray background, and of course the new banner.
