- Finally went salsa dancing with Jayme and Nikki tonight! They ask/remind me every week to join them but I'm always hesitant because of work on Fridays. This week though, I took Friday off (and I'm headed to Chicago with Anna to see PP!) and on Monday I realized this would be the perfect time for me to go! It was SO much fun! We definitely pre-gamed before we went and that was fun (and necessary) ;) And once we got there, it was great! There were tons of people and a lot knew exactly how to salsa. I danced with a few guys, eventually coming to a guy who was taller than me (I was wearing heels too!!!!) and liked that I was tall. We danced really well together and we definitely exchanged numbers - I can't wait to dance with him again! :D I also met a guy from the Middle East who was very funny and very nice but AT LEAST a head shorter than me - he was very disappointed when I frankly told him that there was no way I could date him, because of the height difference. Just call me a Heartbreaker ;)
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 :)
