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 :)

Music Takes Me Up (Jan 11)

  • Put all my music onto my newer computer and downloaded some new stuff. Can't wait until I figure out all the kinks and can sync my iPod...new Florence!
  • Made mini-loaves of banANNA bread. But her recipe said 60 minutes in the oven. For a tiny loaf. So it was overdone. Still tasted okay, but very crunchy :/
  • Tried bacon and duck rangoons in plum sauce at Casa Bolero in Kzoo. They were pretty good, though it was strange eating meat that was the consistency of cream cheese.
  • Wrote lesson plans for Korea. Got a good amount accomplished but not enough, despite staying up til 4:30. Boo. Back at it tonight, after subbing. Oh but I did get to watch Enchanted, Princess Diaries and Sherlock while I was working, so that was good.
