this “new look” of loafe is actually just the default template for wordpress. I upgraded the other day and forgot to change it. I’m working on something new, because apparently my old look was crap, even though I liked it very much.
I can’t believe how much everyone likes the default look. jeez. I think it’s ugly and a real snooze. but whatev. I refer to my new motto: to each his own.
A strange and mysterious thing has occurred. I never thought it would happen, but I’m glad I’m no longer in my twenties. They were a bit of an embarrassment for me, in so many ways, and it’s a relief to be done with them. And so far, the thirties aren’t so bad.
I just wish 31 didn’t sound so old. And now that I’m starting to get comfortable in my 31-year-old shoes, it’s almost time to trade them in for a 32, leaving me with less than three years to graduate, find a city to settle down in, get a great job and have a daughter. I don’t literally mean my shoes are 31 years old though. It’s just a metaphor. My shoes are, like, 6 months old.
But all in all, I feel pretty good these days, about being my age and having my kid and my general lot in life. My outlook is on the upswing. I whine a lot, because it’s my habit, but honestly I just need to get over myself. I am lucky, I know this; I could have it 100 times worse than I do. I need one of those funny animated creatures to sit on my shoulder, appearing when the situation warrants, reminding me of my good fortune, because otherwise I’m too wrapped up in what I don’t have or what I’m not doing, creating misery where it doesn’t need to be.
Our circumstances are just that—circumstances. I have choices and opportunities and intelligence and I’m letting the wrong things get me down and affect my life. Ry needs a better mother than that!
Warm weather is almost upon us and I know things will be better in the spring. Okay, technically it IS spring, but I won’t consider it official until I can pack up my stupid winter coat for the year.
Let’s all be thankful for trader joe’s jasmine green tea, the most delicious beverage in creation. Well, it might not be the most delicious beverage EVER, but it’s certainly one of my favorites and definitely in the top 5 of Most Delicious Beverages Ever. Sitting right next to trader joe’s jasmine green tea on that list is ito en’s jasmine green tea. Now you might say that maybe I just like jasmine green tea in general but you’d be wrong, because I’ve tried other brands of jasmine green tea and none are as good as these two.
All I need now is a broadband internet connection and a pedicure and things will be swell.
I haven’t added any new photos of the baby in march, but you can check out some from Feb, if you were so inclined.
The poor little guy is sick right now, and involved in some very gross manifestations of that sickness. I feel awful for him and I want him to get better, but the benefit of his illness is that he’s awfully cuddly, calm and low-key, which is nice.
I am not sure what’s happened over at myspace.com, but I think it has now become the largest collection of annoying people and ludicrous “homepages†ever. And there is so many annoying people and ludicrous web sites out there, you can just imagine. I am not even kidding when I quote this from the myspace website: We like dogs, we like skateboarding — now here’s a skateboarding dog. As one comment says, “That’s simply epic.â€
Oh boy. I don’t even know where to begin with that one. My heart mourns, for the creator of that video, for the writer of that description, for the owner of that comment, for all of humanity.
I think the myspace motto is: “Why say something with mere words when you can use Very Large Generic Graphics, Grating Sound Clips, Copious Amounts of Pictures and the Results of Endless ‘Personality’ Surveys?â€
Okay, maybe the myspace motto is “a place for friends†but you say potato and I say “please kill me.â€
Also can I say how much it bothers me that I can’t say the word ludicrous now without thinking of that rapper guy ludacris? stupid rappers, they are constantly ruining my life.
