I'm not unemployed anymore - I actually have a very fabulous job as a preschool teacher with the University of Michigan child care centers. But I'm still posting, albeit a little more irregularly, and I don't want to ignore the personal progress I've made since starting this blog by renaming it.

Blog inspiration: I read 48 States in 48 Days by Paul Jury in the summer of 2011. It was fabulous...although he planned way less for his roadtrip than I would have. And at the same time, my lovely Anna was constantly reminding me that our lives were awesome, despite the fact that we didn't have job prospects, new cars, boyfriends/husbands, houses, etc., like so many people we knew. So, in an effort to appreciate my life and the crazy uncertainty that it is, I started writing this blog about the little adventures I have. (And by "writing a blog," I mean "making a list" because I make lists, not narratives.) Even if there isn't a BIG adventure that happens every day, I try to find at least one thing to list :)

Give Up the Funk (August 7)

  • Yummy brunch with my mom and brothers.
  • Saw Crazy Stupid Love with Jason, Justin, Phil and Kristin. I cried 3 times throughout it and also after we left the theater. It was a great movie but the main storyline just hit too close to home for my emotions to stay in check. I haven't decided if this will make me watch it over and over or never see it again.
  • Had sushi for the first time. It was pretty good.
  • I left my apartment keys in Kalamazoo, and did not realize it until I was standing in front of the door to my apartment. "Sometimes I feel like throwin' my hands up in the air..."
