I have jet lag today and can't quite think straight
There's been so much to talk about, but it's almost too overwhelming to try to commit to writing in my journal. I've been exceptionally slack about that these past couple of weeks. I have to write down everything about my amazing trip to Europe, update my monthly movie reviews, talk about my current state of unemployment and other ridiculous ( Read more... ) -
I'm going on a trip!

I had an AMAZING Christmas
My Christmas was so amazing. I was a little worried initially since we weren't going home and there's a certain amount of anxiety about that. But in the end, not having to pay for plane tickets, allowed me a lot more freedom to buy cool presents for my family ( Read more... ) -
I'm over my self-pity

I broke the line on Monday

Also, I rented this great television series called "Freaks and Geeks" that I' ( Read more... ) -
September Movies
There weren't many movies in the theater this month that I was dying to see, so I tended to watch a lot of Netflix rentals. This was another month where I enjoyed television series more than movies - this month's notable shows were "Californication" and "Mad Men ( Read more... ) -
Anniversary
Today is Dave and my eight year anniversary. It's so sweet. Some moments it feels like we've been together forever and others like we just met.
I love him. -
August Movies
Another month gone by and I'm still enjoying television series more than the movies I'm watching. I've been pretty busy with my mom coming to town and work, not to mention that the mail lost one of our dvd's and it was M.I.A. for two weeks, so it was a slow month. Here goes ( Read more... )
