Hijinks I say

To say I've been up to some hi-jinks is a lie, but it's a fun word to say.

Still very much "pseudo-fired". It sucks.

Will have to quite ballroom dancing at the end of the month in order to not be even more broke than I am now (if it was even possible).

In other news-6 to 10 inches for the metro Detroit area over the next day or so. Oh winter.

Now that I consider to be a "hi-jink", if you will.

Post Birthday Wrap Up

So yesterday was my birthday. Turned a whopping 23 years old. Yes, I know-Oh being 23.

I've had a hard time accepting this birthday for no particular reason. I think it's the fact that I feel like a bit of a failure. I graduated college, got a degree with honors and thusly set off into the world to be a grown up.

I then moved home with my parents, got a job at a coffee shop and took up ballroom dancing. Things haven't been good, they haven't been bad, but due to the expectations I've put upon myself I feel as though things haven't gone the way they should have. I know it was a bit of bad luck to graduate when I did, through no particular fault of my own. The world has taken a bit of a turn for the ridiculous, especially here in Michigan.

I know that the last few weeks I set into a bit of a depression, and I'm trying to come out of it. Currently it's through doing little things like wearing pretty colors when I'm not at work, reading good books and watching things like "Bridget Jones' Diary", and that whole thing is going get its own entry.

---P.S.-The birthday was good, and now I've got Studio 60 On The Sunset Strip, which is fantastic.

It Occurs To Me

It occurs to me that I haven't updated in like FOREVS.

So lets go back. Wwaaaayyyy back. To Election day.
I voted and didn't get a sticker. I was pissed.
--That's the end of that story.

My cat, Mouse, is staring at me in a way that makes me wonder if she'll try to kill me while I sleep. She has more toes than a normal cat, like Ernest Hemingway, and it's entirely possible she could do it.

I have a crush on my ballroom dancing teacher. I also just generally love ballroom dancing. It's good fun and I'm good at it.

And one last thing-I saw the New James Bond movie, Quantum of Solace. Daniel Craig is gorgeous. Like I said to Emily--

Me: /go see James Bond

Emily: ok

Me: James Bond is HOT

Emily: duh

Emily: last one was amazing

Me: Like "feel free to climb up me and have your way with me Mr Bond because if anything, I'll help/encourage you and not be all "I AM AN ICY BIATCH" because you is SEXY"

Emily: oooooooooooooooooooooooooh

Me: with his pretty blue eyes

Anyway. I've got a few stories from the coffee shop/my life and I promise promise to share tomorrow. But right now, it's some IRON CHEF BIATCH.

Get Out The Vote

Now this is all I'll say.
Go vote.

And I'm off to vote tomorrow. And if I don't get a damn "I Voted" sticker, peeps will have a riot on their hands. I vote for the sticker.

I also have a crush on my ballroom dancing instructor.

I learned to dance

Tonight I went to an open house thing at the local Arthur Murray. I learned to dance. It is way too much fun and I plan on learning more. From some cute boys.

A few thoughts I promise to elaborate on-
--Having your brakes fail suck
--I am tired of cool, indie, hipster flicks with underground, scene soundtracks and "witty" dialogue
--I love Tim Gunn and hate Kenley

That's about it for now. I have a lesson at Arthur Murray this Wednesday which will be awesome because I will learn to dance.
