dreaming.

as i was laying in bed the other morning, dozing before my alarm went off, i suddenly heard the slight hint of a guitar playing.

groggy in my mental state, the first image that came to my mind was ashton kutcher playing his guitar outside of amanda peet's apartment, calling out to her in his desperate state of love.

surely. SURELY. this was now happening to me! it was my time...the man of my dreams was coming to get me!

i began to wake a little more, and realized, yes, i really am hearing the guitar...what is that?!

as i walked downstairs, i discovered mom's cd player had been on a timer, and was shouting away at 7 in the morning....

how that timer got turned, i have no idea...but my dreams were dashed. and i giggled to myself.

self pity.

self-pit.y
noun
excessive, self-absorbed unhappiness over one's own troubles.


yes. i am wallowing in self pity currently. as it's dumping down snow...on march 24. i know i know. i should be expecting every little bit of white fluffiness that falls down. after all. i have lived in colorado for 19 years. should be used to it by now.

but i'm not. and it doesn't help, that the parents are in mexico, eating nachos, sipping marg's as carlos saunters around with his tight little white pants, flashing out his "hola hola's."

im thinking of possibly attempting the snow blower. i mean really...if mom can do it...surely i can...right? she has step by step instructions written out. we'll see how brave i feel.

all i really want to do is crank the heat, put on my swim suite, and pretend...maybe my ugg boots too...i mean it is a little on the chilly side as we approach a foot of snow, and the dumping continues. but only in monument. the springs, is clear, and people continue on with their day.

did i mention this is my day off? yeah...i didn't even get a free pass today...it was already planned.

too much snow for the dog to go out and find her way around...how do you deal with that?

I NEED AN ADULT!

granola. not just delicious with yogurt.

now...i refuse to jump into "camp granola." i like being clean, i don't like smelling like hemp. i like shaving my legs. now yes. im making giant blanket statments... i apologize.

but my friend helped me stumble upon a blog, that i am currently seriously enjoying. i'm not really sure why i like it, as the name has nothing to do with who i am, or the stage of life i'm in...but it's still been fun to read. here it is. simplemom.net

i know. i'm not a mom. im not really simple...but it's a great resource for life. and i'm living life. so i partake.

my newest intrigue. natural body products. there were posts on how to make homemade shampoo, deoterant, toothpaste, face wash. and im so intrigued!

im getting into this whole organice lifestyle of food, and really loving it, and seriously thinking about moving that direction in the hair/body products. this could be challenging. considering my deep connection to hairspray...more important, "big sexy hair" hairspray.

baby steps. all about the small victories.

i think my first attempt will be deoterant. i'll let you know how it goes...

don't know if i'm ready to take the dive, but i'll dab my feet in the shallow end...see what i see.

i've lost my mind.

today i was thinking about airplane miles. and how some people have those credit cards that rack up points for airplane's and then you get a free ticket. and i thought to myself...man, i should get one of those cards. cause i could really use the racking up of airplane miles. and then i thought to myself...wait...i have money. i could buy a plane ticket. what "they" really need to discover is some way to rack up time...and then i remembered. oh yes. that's called vacation :) hahahha. my brain needs a break! too bad im not racking up vacation....

patterns?

are you noticing the pattern?

it's another me day. and i just love to blog on me days.

but im slightly perplexed on this me day. i have no idea what to do with myself. i could do laundry----nah. i could go to starbucks and journal---eh. i could go make some fun---meh. see! i'm totally at a loss of what to do with myself.

i spose i could just go finish the 4th season of how i met your mother. yes. that's right. i have watched 4 seasons of this blessed show in....2 months? i mean each night isn't quite right until i have watched/ fallen asleep to an episode of HIMYM!

seriously faithful followers. if you have not seen this show, get your patooty online and start watching. it's just so stinkin good! i die laughing, and although nothing will ever touch friends, i do believe ted, robin, marshall, lilly, and barney do take a very close second.

in other news, i just bought this headband and am quite excited about it.
fun huh! i'm beginning to love flowers and feathers in my hair. new phase? maybe so. but it's deliciously fun!

still looking for new and creative ways to be creative. etsy inspires me daily to get out there and start making things. sew something. i don't know...jury is still out on it all...

off to finish season four and then off to a coffee date. something to look forward to today :)
