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 :)

Movie Medley

  • Woke up cozy in Anna's comfy bed, to fantastic sunshine streaming in the window (it's nice that I have so many friends with fantastically comfortable beds...maybe I should get one...). Read some Hunger Games (on Mockingjay now) and then ate pancakes. We watched Project Runway, season 2, on DVD (way better than on TV), while I FINISHED my quilt - for about 5 hours :D Got a good hug from her mama before I left, though I'm planning to visit again before I leave.
  • Got Grey's Season 2 and Season 5 (for $10 each), along with Leap Year, Harry Potter 4, and Legally Blonde from the Blockbuster that's going out of business on Westnedge (both are in Kzoo...go get some movies!). Very excited :D
  • Watched Inception with my dad, brothers, Barbara and John (such a crazy movie...need to watch it like 10 more times). And now watching X-Men: The Last Stand with Collin and Ben.
I love movies.
