TODAY I WILL BE HAPPIER THAN A BIRD WITH A FRENCH FRY.
Hello Monday!
Another weekend filled of drunkenness and lots of sleeping. I’m living out of my bag and by the time I get home I just throw all of my clothes in the washer and keep wearing the same clothes over and over again. I have a so many clothes they barely all fit in my closet. Why do I keep wearing the same stuff?? Lol weird.
I was really excited to sleep in my own bed last night; it had been like 6 days. I stay with random friends through out the week b/c I don’t see any point of coming home to sleep for five hours if I go out, have dance, or yoga, by the time I get done its late. I probably should get my own place but I hate paying for rent but I’m just there to sleep, but I really miss my bed. Its magical, cozy, the best bed ever.Pretty much anyone who has had the opportunity to sleep in my bed falls in love w/ it. Like whenever I went out of town my old roommate told me she would sleep in it.
Yep, that’s me being cocky about my bed.
So, I meet this boy like a month ago. He’s a little confusing; we have miscommunications like - a lot. I’m really busy, he’s really busy, we’re too much a like, yet very different, he’s hot and then cold and we’re having trouble getting on the same page. BUT I really like him and I’m hoping good things happen…. =) If anything i've already learned a few life lessons from him, he's inspiring and thats what I really dig about him. Maybe I'm just finally growing up and seeing things a little different. Either way, its really nice.
Ha. But just reading my review of him he we sound silly together.
So, yesterday was another perfect Sunday.
Church.
Lunch w/ my sister and her family.
Coffee and sticks.
Fun convo’s.
Movie w/ my parents.
Laundry.
It’s been pre decided for me by my lovely nieces and nephews over lunch yesterday that I will:
Not be marrying Spiderman. We’re not right for each other because, I only practice cooking once a week and Spiderman has to eat like twenty times a day. He’s a super hero, hello?! My nephew said I would be to jealous and I wouldn’t be able to play w/ all of his cool gadgets and computers b/c I wouldn’t know the passwords. Easy answer: Ilovemyfuturewifeabby.
So then it was decided Shilo Lebouf is a better match for me, same age, he has cool cars.
The conversation went something like this after the Spiderman lecture.
Gregory: Abby, you’re almost 24, it’s like the magical age you have to get married and grow up. You are messing everything up, you only get one chance. You could marry sandman, but the only bad deal is you wouldn’t be able to kiss.
Kim: No to sandman, you would get sand in all the wrong places.
Me: Not gonna work, I like kissing.
Helena: Ugh, Gregory you are so stupid. Some people never get married.
Me: Ya, I’m just planning on having three cats and using my oven as extra closet storage, and travel a lot. Faith you can house sit for me when I’m on vacation.
Faith: Oh, Abby, no, no, no! Marrying a Cat is serious business. Like serious. Why don’t you pick, like, ummm, you know someone human to marry.
Me: No, I said nothing about marrying a cat.
Faith: OH….followed by many giggles.
Gregory: Ok, so we can do this. We can come up with a really good plan. You know there are other options to have kids without getting married. Like I’ve learned about this in sex ed. You have eggs and they hatch, and when your ready you can go to the dr and pick out the kind of kid you want, and then - - - rudely interrupted
Kim: WHOA, whoa…WHOA. Abby does not want kids Gregory. We’ve been through this.
Gregory: What do you mean, like never ever?
Kim: Yep.
Me: Its going to have to grow on me, like maybe when I’m 30. Maybe.
Gregory: That weird, everyone wants kids, I even want kids someday. What if it happens by accident?
Me: Then I’ll deal with it….but that is a sweet way to tell some one you’re having a kid. Babe, my eggs hatched. Ha eww….this conversation has officially gone on way to long!!!
Gregory: Ok, lets go watch Indiana Jones.
Me: Deal!
So, tonight if it doesn’t get snowed out- church, and candle light flow yoga! I really wanna make a scrap page of words on my yellow paper, rock, and scissors bag. Its hard to scrapbook when you are living out of your ADIDAS bag.
I really like the new Katy Perry song.
I lost three books, I left them at work and they seriously disappeared.
I;m off of college this semester and it sucks, I miss it, and I miss complaining about how I hate it.
XO.

"It was the girl pants and the cool tattoo ideas, oh and the beer; a deadly combination.
I heart the Anchor.
I heart life.
I heart cool graffiti on bathroom doors like these I found last night:

What if the mightiest word is love?
RIGHT NOW:
Watching history, it’s a big day.
Thinking about how great it is some people randomly come into your life and you want more but you know they’re only there for one thing. It’s just your gut feeling. “They” whoever “they” may be were sent to open your eyes, and they don’t know how important those little words were, how much it meant to me, how much they changed my perspective, how “they” got you back on track. Or maybe it was just time to open up, listen, and accept, and timing was everything, “they” just happen to be at the right place, at the right time. I don’t really care if “they” hang around forever or if “they” just stay in the distance. It helped. It was refreshing.
Lately, I couldn’t live without one of my good guy friends; he’s been there for me. He’s kept me in line and has even told me the mean truthful things only friends can do. Thank you. I’m having a mini mid life crisis because I’m almost 25 and all those things on my list that I made when I was 20 haven’t been crossed off. It all of a sudden became super important for me. It’s hard for me to be open to random people, and this blog has helped. It helps to see my frustration written out w/ words. Hopefully, it will be more cheery in the months to come =)
Lots of planning for new things, and since I’ve never planned I’m sure its all going to backfire, just hoping for some luck.
I haven’t done any art, scrapbooking, journaling, or picture taking like I promised myself. My days are filled with work, teaching dance, Abby activities, re-connecting, deep conversations, yoga, and as soon as I get home I have enough time to brush my teeth and as soon as I jump in my bed I’m out.

heart fluttering.
Inspiration:
Cute:
I ordered this yesterday:
& I just really like this:
Off to try and find some extra kings of leon tickets, they sold out so quickly! Maybe we will just make a road trip regardless.
Sundays use to be my movie day but lately its been turning into Fridays. My bloody Valentine 3D - tonight. psyched.

Suddenly life is making sense to me again, and I want more, I want to risk more than what others think is safe. I want to be on the edge. It's been a long time since I've actually sat down and asked myself the hard questions. Like if I'm really happy with what I'm doing right now? If I'm truly inspired? I need to actually write my list down, make a plan, and cross them off. That's what I should really be doing, I'm not meant to be sucked into the everyday normal life style, it seriously just started bugging the hell out of me about a year ago. It just isn't me. I have really crazy goals, and its going to take a little more risk on my part and I'm finally ready, and so is my health, finally! (Well for the most part;) )

oh so radical.
Hello Music!
Really random-
I find it really funny how kids think, I look forward to dance classes just because of the weird conversations we have like this:
Allison: Abby, do you have a mom?
Grace: Of course she has a mom, everyone has a mom.
Taylor: Umm…some people don’t.
Grace: yes, they do.
Allison: So, what’s your mom’s name?
Me: Trudy.
Allison: Trudy…hmmm that doesn’t really seem like an Abby mom name.
Grace: NO! You’re lying…I know who your real mom is.
Sierra: ME TOO.
Me: WHO?!
Grace: It’s Hillary. She’s your mom, it just makes sense.
Taylor: Ohhhh yeahhhh HILLARY, how cool. You guys are the coolest!
Me: Hillary is not my mom….you guys are crazy??
Grace: Well if she isn’t your mom…is she your sister?
Seriously funny…you had to be there.
I could really go for and iced passion tea from Starbucks.
I stayed out way 2 late for a week night and drank way 2 many Mojitos, but it was really fun.
I’m learning to trust people after 23 years. I’m also learning to not play games. It feels really good.
I’m feeling vampire white...too white…maybe I should tan a few times?
I also really like it when people surprise me at work and drop me off my favorite made up flavor of ice cream from Cold Stone.
I wish it was Friday so I could be at my sisters working on Project Australia, playing apples to apples with my niece, and learning how to make the best pizza ever.
And for have such a blah hump day these txt’s make me giggle…maybe a little too much.
“You’re icecream smells like heaven!”
“I bet your name is secretly Abby Obama Ready you love change so much.”
“I got excited and slipped on it”
“Sexellenet baby girl. Very sexellent.”
“Its mid January random ass”
“My little Abby dearest, that is absolutely astounding.”
“Do I really want to ask…How did you lose your pants?”
Ummm…ya I’m really bored. Back to work??

The possibilities
Dear Monday,
I ask you to please stop harassing me. It’s a terrible day, for example: who the hell curses someone to lose there pants while swimming laps and the only thing they have to wear out of the gym is a skimpy skull swimsuit? Did I mention its winter, and its just plain cold! That’s not the only thing that went wrong. I’d really appreciate it if something would change & you would pick on someone else. Ok, good talk.
Love,
Abby
So.
Really.
I’m not making this evil “I’m cursed on Monday stuff up.”
Today, I passed three cars going about 90mph in a 55mph zone and ended up right behind a cop. I know it seems silly, but I got up late and there are seriously no cops on this road ever…So, yes, I really thought speeding was necessary, and its fun. I didn’t get pulled over, had it been M*nday it would have been a different story. I’m for certain of it.
The weekend was fabulous! Filled with too much fun, lots of partying, we also celebrated my dad’s birthday and had the best Middle Eastern food ever, great family stuff, hung out some dear friends. I went through a whole box of Dayquil and Nyquil to make it through BUT it was worth it, my liver might not be too happy about that though.
I’m totally applying for that dream Job that was on yahoo earlier this morning, Going to Australia, living on an island, snorkeling, I believe I’m qualified. I’d do it for free, screw money its about the experience. Hello, I love to scuba dive, swim, and be adventurous. It’s like winning the lottery on this deal, gotta take a chance ;)
and this is just a funny little convo I had for Q-
ME: AHHH oh my gosh, road trip. Katy Perry is coming in March. Will you go with me?
Q: Umm…I don’t know.
ME: PLEASE! She’s my new girl crush.
Q: We’ll see you’ll have to do something extra special for me.
ME: I don’t think so, you know you want to go regardless she is smokin’.
Q: I really don’t know how I feel about being the only straight guy there.
ME: You’re not going to be the only guy there, I promise, and your metro it will be fine.
Q: Ugh…I’m finding a super hardcore show and dragging you to it!
ME: ok, deal!
I had this cute yellow rock/paper/scissors bag staring at me when I got home, screaming make something!!!! I almost did….almost, maybe tomorrow.
Bunny kisses!!!
XO,
A.

You're such a poet
I wish I could be Wesley Willis
My words would flow like honeySweet and laid on thick
You're so edgy
You don't even need a rhyming dictionary
I wipe my hands on your jeansCause they are more distressed

Raquetball totally kicked my ass last night.
Wow, I really hate Mondays, and I keep thinking each week, they couldn’t get any worse but they always unpredictably, yet predictably get worse…but as soon as the evening rolls around I’m usually ok. I know it’s Friday & I’m blogging about how bad I hate Mondays, let the confusing set in.
I traditionally started this blog to be more involved and artsy with the whole messy art/scrapbooking world, and it’s anything but…I’m almost certain there’s been only one scrapbooking project posted on here & that was when I HAD to finish my effer dare. Yay me!
So, due to my lack of organization, an obsessive amount of movie watching, and trying to figure some things out - I am really lacking anything appealing to blog about…..I’m just really excited for 2009, some really good things are going to happen, some awesome trips, great adventures, reconnecting and getting back on track. I’ve been wasting a lot of time, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing; sometimes I think those moments end up being your best memories, but I’m ready for a change. My new year’s goal is to be dangerous and outrageous in a responsible way. I miss that feeling, I’m not really sure what happens to t/ wild and crazy old you..except you get old and you forget how much fun it is. I had to face the fact that I’m officially the "O" word, I’m almost 24, and that was the secret “old” age that was so unrealistic, I didn’t think I would ever get to see. Sounds creepy, but I always thought I’d die young. Ouucchhh 24?! So, I’m having a mid life crisis on all the things I haven’t crossed of my list. I’ve been a little to care free at times and I’m sure I’ve hurt a lot of people and their feelings, I’ve finally come to the realization I need to be plugged in, not run on batteries – Thanks to my SISTER & MOM ;) that metaphor finally sunk in on Christmas.
Hurray 09!

This girl can write some serious lyrics, her soph album brilliant:
Really digging this:
Neil Gaiman : I hope you will have a wonderful year, that you'll dream dangerously and outrageously, that you'll make something that didn't exist before you made it, that you will be loved and that you will be liked, and that you will have people to love and to like in return. And, most importantly (because I think there should be more kindness and more wisdom in the world right now), that you will, when you need to be, be wise, and that you will always be kind.
And this cute little hippy Whinny Woven T-Strap Sandals from free people:
Also: The art of faking it. Hilarious, especially starting around pg 35.
