Thoughts Meander

Quiet Down, Up There!
I am blogging at 11:00 when I should be sleeping. I have been working until 7 or 8 pm every night this week and I am one sleepy girl. Too bad the people in the apartment above me sound like a herd of elephants performing a tap dance!

Ahh, Clarity..
I love writing. It clears my mind and winds me down. After neglecting my journal for the past two months, I finally purged a few thoughts on paper.

Hangry
My friend taught me a new word today. Hangry: Hungry + Angry.
Not a good combo.

Loving these Lyrics Today:
I want so badly to believe that there is truth and love is real.
And I want life and every word, to the extent that its absurd.
--The Postal Service, Clark Gable

Shout Out
Grant started law school!! Yay, I am so proud of him!

My Body Hates Me
I couldn't tell you the last time I went to the gym, or went one day without dessert. Sure, I do yoga twice a week at least, but that is more for my mind and my soul. I have been a bit on the lazy side lately.

Thank Goodness for DVR!
All my shows are starting this week and next: Gossip Girl, Entourage, the new 90210 (I'm giving it a shot), the Hills (although I think its a terrible show, I watch because my friend Alex is on it this season), America's Next Top Model (also, over-done, yet I keep up because my work friends and I watch during lunchtime and make fun of it), and others! I'm pretty sure I won't be able to keep up with them.

Character
I find people who are genuine and considerate to be extremely refreshing.

Suggestions?
My mom is going to paint my room (at home in Indiana) for me because the teal green on the walls now makes me want to vom. I know some of you have a lovely decorating sense (Megan).. so please throw some ideas my way!

Stepping Out of the (Recipe) Box:
My lunch tomorrow is something I have never tried. Brown rice cooked with coconut mylk and seasoned with cinnamon. It is comforting and hearty, with the thickness and creaminess of risotto and it's sweet to the taste buds. We'll see if it is worthy of repeating.

Love & Miss
Today my Inbox was full of emails from my best friends from home. I literally was laughing out loud at work reading some of them. It really made me miss those girls.

Soothe Me
I downloaded some yoga/meditation music. Maybe this will help my laziness-induced insomnia?
Time for bed!!
