Yesterday's Horoscope of Eerie Accuracy (term stolen from cleolinda because I love it): "Trip the light fantastic with a hot date -- whether it's your honey, best friend or favorite niece -- of your choice. A little time spent solely on frivolous purposes will give you the sense of relaxation you need." That's just what I did yesterday! Random astrology service, have youuuu been reading my diary? Dan and I went to see TMNT and it was nostalgic, adorable and fun! I love that they didn't de-1990s Michaelangelo at all. I still lurve him. We ate bad food all day (McDonalds breakfast, a million pounds of ham and swee' potatoes for lunch, Arby's fatness for dinner) and walked around the city for awhile. It was delightful. ^.^
In other news, I finally figured out what I treasure in life. Hurrah! Thus far, it's always been like, "Well, I'd better get some schoolin' and pull together some money so that when I figure out what's worth pursuing, I'll be in a good position to do it." It's... hobbies. Yep, that's what I care about most. Doing goofy shit in my free time. What a nerd! ^_^ But it's true, that's the stuff in my life that I enjoy the most. At the moment, my current hobbies of choice are cake decorating, Warhammer, and cross stitch (and Sims 2 ^^). I'm trying to trick myself into making working out a hobby, but I don't really enjoy it, so boo. It'll remain a chore until I find something I love about it. It changes monthly. I used to rock climb, draw, sculpt, arrange flowers, and make soap, but those things have gone on the back burner because of expense or waning interest. Aaaaaaanyway, though it may not seem earth-shattering to anyone else, it's kind of a big deal for me to have realized how important my hobbies are to me because it REALLY shapes my future career goals. I can't see myself taking on a lifestyle profession like "teacher" or "lawyer" because I care way too much about having free time in which to do my goofy crafts. It's at the point where I'm like, "Maybe I should NEVER have kids so I can spend more time and money on myself! Me me me!" I rather hope it's just a prolonged phase because that's awfully selfish. XD
La. Maybe this means I won't end up going into publishing. Or that I'll go into a different area of publishing. Or that... blah, I'm sick of talking about myself. How are you out there, LJ people? Hanging in there? Living exciting lives that don't involve glue and paint? ^_^
