"The bean forever
remembers
it's birthplace:
the terraced hillsides,
the equatorial rains,
the lilac-blue
shade of
the jacaranda. The bean
eternally harbors
the nurturing touch of the
farmer deep within.
The bean gives back,
blessing each warm cup
with the mysteriously
inviting flavor of the
coffee-land
origin."
Oh, Starbucks. I am LOLOLOLOLing at you right now.
We're still here.
I'm going to distract myself from it by posting this picture that Weezer took at Opryland last night.
And after this movie ends, I'm going to bed. Today needs to be OVER.
We're still here.
Moving? Metaphorically and physically as well.
| Classifications:: Day to Day, Love?, Vacations, WeezerThis blogging/internet community is a very strange one indeed. If you had told me when I was in middle school, and the internet was something I had hear of but never experienced, that someday I would be broadcasting my life online for people across the world to read, I would have thought you were crazy. I wouldn't even let my best friend read my diary! And yet here I am, on the internet, typing out my day to day, as if the world gives a damn.
Sweet Jeez. As an aside, Weezer and I are watching Constantine, and damn. This is kind of freaky. Yikes.
Anyway. It always surprises me when I run the stats on my blog to see where my readers are, and how many people actually do check my stuff out. I get a lot of return visitors, which is a surprise, because only my good friends comment. It's really flattering, actually, how many people take the time to read about my life, and I thank you all for coming back again and again.
I'm contemplating a move. I've been toying with the idea of switching over to Wordpress for awhile now, but the thing that is holding me back is that you have much less freedom with the look of your blog. You can only choose between Wordpress's preloaded themes, and none of them represent me at all. Weezle has successfully talked me into purchasing my own domain, though, so my plan is to have that set up before I leave on Monday. I am lucky that he doesn't have to work the entire time that I am down here, so there is lots of time to get that done. Exciting things are afoot, lol.
Another move is underway as well. When I get back home on Monday I am going to start packing in preparation for moving back into my mom's house for a couple of months. I'll be living on her couch, which will be difficult, but it's a decision that I am really at peace with. It will give me some time to get bills paid off and save up for the necessary deposits to get my own apartment. And to think about where I really want to end up, be it Tacoma or somewhere else in Western Washington, Portland, or maybe even Nashville, all things considered. We shall see. Either way, I'm excited to have my own place for the first time ever.
Today started out really rough. I was a bit of a brat this morning, because I embarrassed myself. I guess I really need to work on that whole "filled with grace" business. It seemed to get worse and worse as the morning wore on, until finally I just needed to get out. We ended up finding ourselves at REI, where I tried on a couple of pairs of shoes. Those Clark's I bought earlier this week were not working for me. They end up hitting this one spot on my foot, and it just kills. I'm going to return them, so I tried on some Keen hiking sandals and some Simple flats. I really do want the Keens, but since it's been snowing in the Northwest, I couldn't justify buying a pair of sandals in January. The Simple shoes, however, were unbelievably comfortable, and also 100% sustainable. I bought them, of course, and they are amazing.
I love my dirty hippie shoezles.
Things didn't really get better until we left to go get coffee at Bongo Java in East Nashville. We had the opportunity to talk, and clear up some misunderstandings, and left the coffee shop in a much better place than when we got there. We also saw the cutest little bulldog, and I made him fall in love with me. I scratched his tummy and behind his ears, and he just melted into my feet. It was love at first sight.
Weezle and I took a little walk around the neighborhood, which is very reminiscent of the North End in Tacoma. I felt quite at home there, looking at the quirky houses and businesses. If I were to move to Nashville, that is where I would want to live. My favorite business? I Dream of Weenie. Love.
We finished up with some drinks at a bar, where I got to meet Michele Ari, a musician whom I have heard a lot about from Weezer. He takes pictures of her shows for her. It was cool to see her in person after seeing her pictures. She was really sweet.
Now I'm tired, and wanting to work on this whole blog move thing. I'm in the pjs and am gonna just relax, watch the movie, and mess around a bit. I hope you all had as wonderful a day as mine ended up being!
PS - Weezle thinks Tilda Swinton is insanely hot. I think he is a little weird. :P
We're still here.
Me and mine posed for this cute shot. Love.
Pajamas and green tea before bed.
We're still here.
Last night started out with promise of an adventurous night out. Dinner with my love and two of his friends, dressed up fancy, with good conversation. Plans to ring in the new year at a bar Weez frequents often. After dinner brought a change of plans, however, and 2009 found me all dressed up with nowhere to go. Weezle and I went to the apartment of his friend and watched vh1 until it was time to ring in the new year. I experienced my first White Russian. I thought of Dana, and The Dude.
It was good, and quite, and the company was nice, but it was certainly not what I had in mind when I spent several mall trips looking for what I deemed was the perfect New Year's top. Or when I carefully applied my deep red lipstick before leaving the house. But one of my resolutions is to roll with le punches better, and not to be too disappointed when life doesn't exactly go the way I'd planned.
I feel discontent, and this is something that I am trying to work on. So far today has brought me wanting more, as per usual, and life happening at it's own pace, as per usual, and me sitting back thinking, hello? What about me?
Some people still need to not, even as we enter 2009. Some things are apparently not going to stay neatly packaged in last year's wrapping. It may be a new year, but the same old drama is following me into it. And I'm not really sure what I am going to do about it.
Change is hard.
We're still here.
