Lately I've been noticing some bad habits that I have. The biggest of which, right now, is that I am really bad at being proactive, even when I'm highly motivated. For example: Marcus and I have been talking about getting a dog since fairly early on in our relationship. In our apartment, it wasn't really feasible, but when we moved into the ( Read more... )

Marcus and I filled out our February calendar last night. There are exactly THREE days in the entire month that we have no plans (aside from work, of course). But I'm super excited, because most of it is fun stuff, and it's shaping up to be a great month ( Read more... )

The song that is my current music has been stuck in my head for about 3 days straight now. I don't know what exactly it is about the song that captivates me so deeply, but I think I might do a lyrics post at the end of this entry ( Read more... )

Well, it has certainly been an...eventful week and a half since I last updated. Typical of this year, and also of this time of year, I guess. Part of me wants to start on my end-of-year posts (the end of year survey, and my own reflections on the year), especially since I've been drafting some of them in my head for months, but I'm hesitant to do ( Read more... )

Hello all, and Happy Hanukkah to all who celebrate ( Read more... )

The end of the year is fast approaching! Yes, I know there are nearly 3 full months left until December 31st, but it seems I am already in end-of-year reflection mode. I want to write an entry this year, kind of a "year in review" sort of thing. It's already starting to come together in my head, but I feel like I need to wait until December to ( Read more... )

Apparently, September 25th is a very popular day to be born. I logged into facebook this morning to discover that I had SIX friends with birthdays today! None yesterday, none tomorrow or the next day, but SIX today! Pretty crazy ( Read more... )

Well, it's only 9:15 am as I write this, but it's already been such an exciting day! First of all, today is my mom's birthday, so even though I don't think she reads this, happy birthday Mommy! Second (but certainly no less exciting!), Joel and Shosh's baby was born early this morning! Welcome to the world, Eli (for full name, look on facebook, ( Read more... )

I realize I haven't posted any "real" updates in a while. Sorry about that. Life is pretty monotonous in some ways, so I don't feel like I have anything interesting to post. But, since I'm sitting here at work with nothing to do, I'm going to update anyway, and hopefully it won't be TOO boring ( Read more... )

As you probably know if you've been following my facebook statuses, Marcus and I hosted an RPG night at our apartment Saturday night! I've sort of always wanted to try an RPG (which, by the way, stands for Role Playing Game, for those who don't know), but I never had any close friends who played them regularly, so I never had the opportunity.
