Thanks to Lauren tweeting my blog, I went through the excitement/giddiness/terror of realizing people read my blog. I'll admit, I yelled across my tiny apartment in shear joy, announcing to my fianc
é that I had six comments from people I wasn't related to. It was a pretty big deal.
But, I also went through the terror that I need to get my act together and start blogging again. Or rather, start blogging in general. I've never been very consistent. It's one of those things that gets pushed way way way to the back. Along with the mound of dirty dishes and piles of clean laundry. Eh, maybe I'm putting everything on the back burner now. But the point is, thank you for reading. It makes me feel spectacular when others connect to my writing.

Last night I took my fianc
é to the Franklin Park Conservatory for his birthday. While getting ready, I did my usual thing of standing on one foot and hopping around until I nearly (or actually) fall over. Why, you ask? That is how I put on shoes. Last night, like most, I toppled over and hit the wall. Despite my throbbing shoulder, I stood right back up to hop around and put on the other shoe. Once my shoes were successfully on my feet, I stopped to think: why do I make things as difficult as possible on myself? A sensible person would sit down. This is how I go about a lot of things in life. I don't take the sensible route that brings peace to my life. Now my goal is to find out why...
This is awesome. I look forward to your future posts and am really glad I was able to find you. I take my shoes off the same way, by the way. It never occurs to me there are other ways until I've already finished and/or hurt myself, so...I can relate.
ReplyDeleteAnd I love the new layout!
ReplyDeleteaw, thanks! It's a lot more fun blogging when there's actually feedback :) I'm very glad you found my blog, I've peeked around at yours through Jess's blog.
ReplyDeleteand I thought the layout needed something, it was a bit boring, ha
I noticed I had a new follower! :) I am on Jess' blog too much really. Haha, I will probably use it to get over to yours often too...although you do come up in my news feed now.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about the feedback, be careful what you wish for though, I am a frequent commenter. I think it probably becomes annoying. after a while. And I liked your layout before too. Yellow if my favorite color.
I love your blog, this post made me smile because I find myself wondering the same thing daily! Sometimes, I step back and my watch people do things the "simple" way and I always find myself amazed, why don't I think to do that?
ReplyDeleteMaybe we like the struggle... :)
