Down Under

I am procrastinating right now. I should be writing my article which is due tomorrow but instead I thought I would update my blog. I would like to dedicate this blog to Australia. Land of good looking men and accents. You one of the ONLY countries that do not read my blog. I understand that most of you are decedents of criminals from Great Britain, but the rest of the world really loves you (and would really like for you to read this). I went to Europe after my senior year of high school and we met a group of Australians. They loved us! We got along really well. Except when you give them the peace sign don't turn it sideways (apparently that means something bad to them). I really have nothing to say so here are some pictures.

Here's To New Beginnings

So I realize my last post was a little harsh. Please just let me clarify that it was not about me being cheated on recently. Confusing, I know. Just as Jennifer Nettles wrote the song "Stay" from the other woman's perspective, I, too, was doing the same. Now that we are clear I can begin my new beginnings post!

I am about to embark on yet another adventure. I have resigned from my full-time job (the one where I make no money) and taken an internship this summer (where I can do what I love, WRITE). This seems like a wonderful opportunity but I know it  isn't always "glitter and unicorns" on the other side. I still am in need of a full time job come September (so if any of you amazing readers would like to hire me, I would like to be hired). I am also leaving my current location and moving back home. This is definitely not peaches-n-cream. On the plus side I will be saving the little- to- no money I have, on the downside well, I am moving back in with the parentals.


Karma and I have been trying to be friends lately. I even gave 3 pennies today at McDonalds. I don't know if Karma works if I tell you what I just did. I'm not sure if the same rules that apply for wishes are applied to Karma. If so then I guess I will have to start over.

Story and picture time! (it's been a while since you've seen my masterpieces). So to new beginnings.  My last day of work I took a MONSTER of a box that weighed 5908 pounds out to my car full of books. These were books that haven't been touched in years. I was not using a hyperbole when I said 5908 pounds, I weighed it. Well, I had the bright idea to trade these books for some more interesting books at a local trade store. So I parked my car next to another car and was trying to get the box out of my car and just couldn't. Then, I decided since another car was parked next to mine I would move my car to one with that didn't have another car parked beside it. Well, I couldn't shut the damn door. Now I'm trying to budge this 5908 pound box of books back into my car and can't. Did I mention that it was close to 100 degrees outside? It's close to 100 degrees outside. I also have on a dress. Finally, I slammed my car door shut, got back into my car, and drove across the parking lot. I f bfvgr`1q (That was Cooper typing since this is my first story that doesn't involve him...guess he felt left out) I finally get the box of books out of my car. This is when I realized that I couldn't even pick up the box. I had not one but TWO boys carry the box out and put the books in my car. So me in my LONG maxi dress in the 100 degree heat decide to drag the box of box across the parking lot. I had to stop on several occasions. This establishment is located in a strip mall off the highway with restaurants and a nail salon and a dog grooming business. I KNOW these people saw me. Once I finally got the box in there the woman told me to come back tomorrow. Really??? I left the box and she called me the next day to tell me they don't have room large enough for the box and to come back and get it. Fortunately, I do not have enough gas in my car to come back and get it, so for now it stays.
