Holy GEEZ!

I haven't posted anything since June...that's a long time.

To be honest, I haven't been up to the creative plate much. My head seems more blank than full of creative ideas. It's like someone turned off that light switch in my brain. Lately I've been more disappointed with the world than wanting to participate in it.

Such as, half the women I know are cheating on or cheated on their husbands, for that I will bring back a 1989 popular saying of Grody. Yes, I'm 'judging' cause unless your husband is beating you or molesting your kids, you have no reason to not fight for your marriage.

Really?! In my eyes this is literally one of the most disgusting things ever. Now I think the media is for shame with some of the exploiting they're doing of this tragedy in Haiti, but this! This is the reason I can not stand organized religion, hypocrisy. Don't go on the new and say "We're saving orphans" when half these kids aren't even orphans. Human trafficking, not cool

I used to be able to sit down and talk with people about current events and what was happening in this world, now it seems people can only talk about "Lost" or "American Idol", the only politics you hear about is a bigoted opinion against Obama, the only religious discussion someone can have is 'mine is right yours is wrong'. Sad people, really sad. At the very least, read a freaking newspaper and have a discussion about it. DISCUSSION not a fight, remember 2 people can not agree on something and it doesn't make one right and one wrong. They're opinions not facts, in case you didn't know the definition of opinion is: a belief or judgment that rests on grounds insufficient to produce complete certainty. Or simply: a personal view, attitude, or appraisal.

Ok, ok...I digress, or done bitching, just a few observations from my personal opinion.

Good things HAVE come my way though since my last post I must say.

My parents bought me some wonderful new bedroom furniture which is gorgeous! Incredibly generous of them and more than I could have ever asked for, lucky girl to have such lucky parents.

I met someone, yes, ME! The queen of all bad dates met a man that actually might keep her and all her crazy (that includes my family & friends not just my mind). Funny though, I did meet him after a horrible date, so still the queen of bad dates, but really good at picking up guys on the rebound of bad dates apparently. Maybe I should have just attempted this before now, I mean he did tell me he was going to marry me in the first 24 hours, but not in the crazy stalker way, then again how do I know it wasn't....

All jokes aside, he's a wonderful man. We're more like best friends than anything. Things are going very well and I couldn't be happier in the boyfriend department. Who knew it could be this easy once you found someone that A. wasn't a douche and B. actually thought like you do most of the time and C. actually enjoys doing nothing as much as something.

I'm looking into options of going back to school. One class at a time, because I'm broke, but Rome wasn't built in a day either.

I'm finally catching up a little in the finance department. Money (although very little) is being saved up every paycheck for the first time in nearly 3 years. It's a good feeling.

So yes, although I'm ashamed of the generation of pointing fingers and blaming others, I am doing pretty good at trudging along with it and prevailing...with a little support and moral boost now and then. So maybe I'll spend more evenings in avoiding the 'Jersey Shore' and Netflix more documentaries. Maybe I refuse to become a numb statistic. Maybe I'll learn from falling on my face instead of repeating myself. Maybe I'll end up exactly where I am supposed to be. And maybe that's not such a bad thing.
