What Was I Thinking?

I haven't written on this blog in a while, but that's okay, right?  I mean there hasn't been a lot of notable things happening in my life so what was the point of writing?  Well, I'm back in Atlanta after my 6 month mission of stress in south Georgia.  I could say a LOT of negative things about that experience, but I choose to call it a lesson learned.  In an effort not to repeat my past mistakes, I've decided to be more fearless.

So what do I have in the works?  Glad you asked.  Plays, YouTube webisodes, building an improv group, crocheting more apparel, building an a capella choir, baking more, working out (which I'm happy to say I started doing today), blogging more frequently on both of my blogs, publishing my poetry book, and finishing my newest book.

The world is my oyster   The sky's the limit.  I am the author of my story.  I can do anything I set my mind to.  All of those cliche's apply to my current state of mind.  This ought to be fun.

A Song Stuck In My Head

For whatever reason today, I've been hearing "Girls Dem Sugar" by Beenie Man featuring Mya.  Because I can't beat it, I feel I must join it and sing it like I wrote it.  For any of you wishing to sing along, press play.  Have a great evening!

Yanked Awake By A Yorkie

As the title states, I have been awakened by A Yorkshire Terrier named Precious. About an hour ago, I heard her scratching at my door. I tried to ignore her & continue sleeping, but she was relentless. I soon realized that it was storming outside & the thunder & lightening was scaring her. I reluctantly got up & opened the door (partly because I had to use the restroom). She ran in & then followed me (and sat by my side) into the restroom. When she saw that I was headed back to my room, she ran ahead of me, waited for me to get settled (as she freaked out every time lightening flashed), & then jumped onto my bed to lay up under me. She's rarely allowed on my bed, but this time I kinda had to let it ride. Now I'm wide awake blogging & she's fast asleep. Ah, such is life.

We Must Stop Meeting This Way

I'm wide awake again at o'dark thirty. I want to go to sleep & I want my eye to stop watering & I want to stop yawning & I want to rest all through a night. I'm feeling more stressed than I was a month ago. This cabin fever & inability to move around is killing me. I'm not feeling this right now. I need to pray for a while.

Tonight

This is where I am tonight.

Post Envy

I'm so excited about the next few posts that I plan on writing for my other blog, Cake Like Me, that I can't go to sleep. The ideas keep coming and I feel compelled to jot them all down. It's times like this that I'm extra thankful for apps like Evernote. I'm going to look at Pinterest for a few more minutes and then I'll go to bed. I promise.

His Birthday

Today is my ex's birthday and I'm feeling some kind of way.  Last year I went all out and then found out a few days later that he was cheating on me with almost every female in Macon, GA.  We've since moved on and we're still in each other's lives (albeit not in a romantic relationship).  However, I still love him...wait, did I just write that?  Crap!  Oh well, it's out and it's the truth.  I could erase it, but it'll still be the truth.

I'm not sitting around pining for him.  Please believe that.  But, well, I don't know how I feel.  I spoke with him before one of his mid-terms today and he wasn't even that thrilled about his birthday.  I think a lot of that has to do with the fact that he's not where he wants to be in life.  That's another blog for another day.  I'm just trying to figure out why his day even matters to me - still.  Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

It's Been A Mighty Long Time

I know I've been away a long time. I apologize for that. I just waned to say that I've started a new blog: Cake Like Me. I even downloaded the Blogger app. So now I have no immediate excuse as to why I can't visit more often. I'm heading to sleep now, but you were on my mind. Have a great night. Write you soon!
