Hm. I know I've only been on my birth control for a month, but I have already noticed a major declined in my sex drive. This cannot be. It just cannot!!! So, I'm going off 'em. Screw it. Besides... the only reason I went back on the Pill was so Dave and I didn't have to use condoms anymore, but he's too paranoid about getting pregnant to NOT use them even though I AM on the Pill so... what's the point? If it's gonna kill my libido again, then no way man!
Back to just condoms, I guess.

I'm so pregnant with ideas lately. I don't know what it is. All of these rushes of inspiration keep blasting into my head like a trumpet. This urge to create is so overwhelming. Music, clothing, paintings, sketches, photographs... my hands need to make things.
I have some ideas for drawings or paintings. I've been writing music, picking up my guitars again and just practicing even. And that brings me to the fact that I'm pretty excited about this thing Dave and I have been working on. I like that he's into it. He actually suggested practicing at the jam space tomorrow. I'm not sure why, but I just find that so cool. I'm glad he wants to make music with me, you know? When we first started dating, he wasn't in a band. Then he started talking about starting a band with me, and I was originally supposed to play bass in Midwives before they decided that it should just be a three-piece. I was bummed about that for a bit but whatever. Anyway, that's obviously going really well for those guys, but it's cool that Dave still wants to do something with me too.
You know, I've always loved the idea of playing music/being in a band with my boyfriend. I look at groups like Sonic Youth, Fleetwood Mac (even though Lindsey and Stevie aren't the most harmonious example...), C'mon, and what have you, and I'm like "man, that would be so awesome!"

Um hey, this is where I'm staying when I go on my Florida trip in February:
Oh man, I can't wait. I'm going to feel like a kid! We're going to Disney World and the Magic Kingdom and Epcot Center and all of these cool places that I never got to go to as a kid. I'm finally getting to have that pivotal childhood vacation, at the age of 24! Hahaha. But seriously. I am fucking ecstatic about this. And I just want to walk out onto the beach in front of our condo in the middle of the night and walk around with the sand in my toes and just enjoy every single second of what a real vacation feels like. Mmm.
And Jenn said the condo is in some cool little artsy town, so we're gonna do all kinds of shopping and checking out all of the little shops. Dave wants me to bring him back a shark-tooth earring and I intend on doing so! I'm bringing home all kinds of shark shit. What I would LOVE is a huge shark jaw to put on my wall. Holy fuck that would be the best thing in life. They're probably expensive though.
Hey, I guess I should get my passport pretty soon, eh?
PLANE.
