New Look. New Ideas. New New.

So, my dearest Internet, I have changed things up a bit and decided to add a few elements to my page in hopes to move away from conventional "jobs" so I can be a blogger/awesome writer full time.
My life has changed A LOT since I moved to Southern California last July. I've learned a lot about myself, about life, and about people (family, human nature, etc.). I feel like I've been searching for peace and purpose since I was 18. I hope and pray that I've found a way to feel more complete in these areas with the plan my NEW husband and I have.
So here's the idea: We live in the San Fernando Valley now where I have a great job (surrounded by numbnuts, but I can only be so picky)and where the sun shines everyday. Unfortunately, we came up with our fool-proof idea a little late to be able to stay out here so we are moving back home for a little while to pay off bills and get back on track. Then, we are going to start a new Lifestyle blog and travel around to different cities, staying a few weeks at a time to see how people live in different areas. One thing about the area that we come from, is that no one has any real perspective on life out side the shit hole that is Northwest Ohio.
For now, I'll be adding new types of posts that will be leading up to our new blog that should be ready in the next couple months or so. So, since today is Monday and Mondays are terrible by nature, I shall provide a small dose of smile. Thanks for stopping by! -SN

Get Two Birds Stoned At Once

The dress I wore to my work banquet had this half-sweater that went over it and can be worn over other shirts too. I wore the half-sweater to work today with my favorite purple tank top, then notice the hook part of the hook-and-eye was about to fall off. I looked disheveled anyway this morning and with my shirt undone, I just looked like I was out drinking last night and wore that same outfit to work. So, I decided to take a chance and ask if anyone had a needle and thread and try to fix my shirt. Luckily someone did have a little sewing kit so I proceeded to sew the hook back on, totally not concerned what my boss would think. It felt so fulfilling to fix my shirt that I sewed the buttons back on my jacket too. I love sewing and making things and fixing things; it's so therapeutic for me. My next thought was 'I wonder how much more awesome this would feel if I could do this and get paid for it?' Probably pretty awesome. Doing what I love AND getting paid for it - getting two birds stoned at once. (I would love to take credit for that because it's so clever, but I can't. It's from Trailer Park Boys.) Anyway, the whole sewing kit thing made me think about what kinds of things should be kept in my purse .... Maybe later though. This post is boring me to death. It sounded like an interesting subject this morning, but its putting me to sleep now. Can I talk about how my job is sucking the life out of me instead? I don't mean to be a bitcher but goddammit work sucks. Have you ever felt like if you do the same thing one more time your soul might actually leave you in hopes of a better life somewhere else? I'm sure you have. And I'm sorry for that. I'm sorry, soul. I'm sorry you're stuck in my boring life with my boring job and dickhole boss. My roommate isn't any help either. Right now he's playing Saints Row with his friend on his headset. I'm sure it's fun for him, but it's hella lame for me. I'll try this again tomorrow, maybe I can muster the smallest bit of inspiration to write something the tiniest bit interesting.

Peace out.
