The First Day Of My Life
Yours is the first face that I saw
I think I was blind before I met you
Now I don’t know where I am
I don’t know where I’ve been
But I know where I want to go
And so I thought I’d let you know
That these things take forever
I know you especially are slow
But I realize that I need you
And I wondered if I could come home
I’m glad I didn’t die before I met you
But now I don’t care
I could go anywhere with you
And I’d probably be happy
So if you want to be with me
With these things there’s no telling
We just have to wait and see
But I’d rather be working for a paycheck
Than waiting to win the lottery
Besides maybe this time is different

I just woke up from a wonderful nap
I got back from my week long vacation this evening. The boat docked at 7, we disembarked around 8, got to the airport around 9 aaaaand our flight was at 1:50. We illegally shuttled to a Hooters, had lunch to pass the time, and made it back for our flight. I obviously survived. Braving the airport and the parking lot was easier than expected, and yet still amazingly difficult, and after dropping off people I FINALLY made it home.
Vacations are great but there's something especially wonderful about coming home after a long one. I didn't bother unpacking, I just talked to my mother and passed out.
The cruise was insane and fun. The islands were beautiful, everything was so peaceful and relaxing, and I got sun without burning! Thank God for sunscreen.
I got the experience of being treated differently because im a girl, in a bad way, in the Bahamas.
Oh and I had the worst nightmare ever on the boat. It was literally the worst nightmare I'd ever had. I woke up in a cold sweat at 5am and just got out of the room, got some tea, and watched the sunrise. It was a good way to recover from a bad dream but waking up at 5am on a cruise ship is pretty damn creepy itself. Especially when you don't see one other person and everything on the boat is swaying slowly back and forth. A little surreal.
Nassau was definitely my favorite stop. The other two were really just beautiful beaches and bars. I did lots of shopping, but mostly for others.
I'll post pictures later!
It's Christmas Eve. I'm supposed to wrap presents from now until Christmas, which isn't until like 3pm on Monday. Fun fun!
Happy Holidays
Scrubs Logic
"Nothing in this world worth having is easy."
In watching the most depressing episode of Scrubs I've ever seen...
I don't know. I'm not sure how I feel about
everything.
I've been having weird dreams.
I had a dream last night that I could fly and I was had to make it all the way over the entire Inner Harbor or I'd fall in and drown, but it was night time and freezing cold and the water was endess and pitch black and very scary. I think I may have woken up before I ever made it all the way over.
I feel like about 75% of my life has fallen into place, which probably isn't an accurate number but as long as it feels accurate...
I've found myself being happy all the time. I have nothing to be sad about. I have things I can be annoyed about, or there are things I need to buck up and work on but...life seems to be going indefinitely well. I hope that won't put some kind of jinx on things.
Even the things that I think I normally could have found sad or depressing don't seem like that big of a deal anymore.
While I said I miss being in a relationship, I don't think I'm interested in one currently. I have been finding I like myself much more than most people after any extended amount of time. People tend to continually and without fail, disappoint.
I miss you...but I only miss the
good things. I haven't forgotten the bad and it makes the
good bittersweet but...I can't stop.
I've tried. I keep trying. I think it might be getting easier, but then again, I could be wrong.
I go on a Cruise in one week. I fly out Sunday so actually, probably less than a week. I keep forgetting about it and in fact only just remembered. Another thing to be super excited about! School is over, I don't think I did half bad, break is here, I get to work more(!), winter and Christmas are coming, I'm going on a cruise. What
is there to be sad about?
It's cold outside today but sunny.
Dan's married. Wes said something about "Dan's wife" and I subconsciously corrected him. I said "fiance". Wes looked at me and said "No, wife." And then I realized what I said and we laughed about it but it was a little unnerving. Damn subconscious.
It's too bad I'm not seeing Ray LaMontagne when he comes to town. It's a shame people can be so utterly ridiculous despite everything and be so completely exactly typical. So disappointing.
Gomez!
Everyone should go to this website, watch this video, and fall in love with this band/video like I did!

Where do you want to be?
'Cos now you're trying to pick a fight
With everyone you need
You seem like a soldier
Who's lost his composure
You're wounded and playing a waiting game
In no-man's land no-one's to blame
Empty handed, surrounded by a senseless scene
With nothing of significance
Besides a shadow of a dream
You sound like an old joke
You want out, a bit broke
An' askin me time and time again
And the answer's still the same
See the world
Find an old fashioned girl
And when all's been said and done
It's the things that are given, not won
Are the things that you earned
You've got a chance to put things right
So how's it going to be?
Lay down your arms now
And put us beyond doubt
So reach out it's not too far away
Don't mess around now, don't delay
See the world....
"Whoever strives in ceaseless toil, Him we may grant redemption"
