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 :)

I'm Gonna Wash That Man Right Out Of My Hair (Nov 25)

  • I've never even seen South Pacific but I had the line of that song stuck in my head as I showered tonight. I wish it were that easy.
  • I'm okay with being single, but it's hard as crap to not be with someone.
  • I'm the luckiest girl and got to spend my 2nd Thanksgiving with my family tonight. We laughed, ate food, planned for BKC and enjoyed each other's company.
  • Sometimes I wish I could just curl up in my camp people's hugs for a very long time. Especially now with the prospect of not being able to see them for 6 months, including missing camp. I basically feel like I'm missing Thanksgiving and Christmas with my family. That will be one of the hardest parts about being away.
