Winter Boots

So now that it has started snowing I need winter boots. Now I have been saying that I need winter boots for like two winters now. Come to think of it...i don't think I have had a pair of winter boots since I was a kid. Every year I go to the shoe store...look at all the boots and all i think is "Damn why do they make winter boots so ugly"
Also...i really hate tucking my pants into boots...it is just not a look I like or can pull off. I just can't do it. So I always come out of the shoe store with new shoes....but never winter boots.
I tried to get winter boots today, I was in winners looking at the boots and I came out with a yoga mat and head phones...but no boots.
Its time to get serious. My goal this week is to finally go and get winter boots! I swear I am gonna do it this time!

Work Zombie

So last night for my best friend James' Christmas present we went to see avatar 3D....in imax. Now Avatar is like the most popular movie in the world right now. Its based on something...sci fi nerds don't get mad at me...but I don't know..I think it's a video game.
Now I follow a few specific rules for an excellent movie going experience.
1) NEVER go opening weekend...you are packed into a crowded theatre where you get to see that the human race...they are a bunch of idiots...well..mainly just the teenagers and younger generation...which makes me worry for the future..and myself because a lot of people consider me the younger generation......okay...wait I have gotten off topic...damn hooligan teenagers. Anyways...rule one to repeat...avoid opening weekend of a movie.
2)AVOID OPENING WEEKEND!
okay so really I only have one movie going rule..but its an important one.
BUT....I broke this rule last night....and although it was crowded and the floors were so gross and there was food and drinks spilled everywhere (people are messy, inconsiderate pigs), I managed to get past it all and really enjoy the movie. It was interesting and captivating...and I didn't even notice that it was almost 3 hours long.
But due to the length of the movie...I got home at 1:30am last night, and got to bed at 2am. and now I am at work at 8:30am and I can barely function....I am a work zombie.
For the first half hour of work...all I did was log onto my computer...and just stare at the screen. I decided to do a blog because it involves not a lot of thinking...and hopefully that it will require just enough thinking to jump start my brain so I can get to work on actual work...........
ZOMBIE OUT!

New and Improved

So...I went on a little break for awhile.....I wasn't very happy with how things were working out. But after a lot of focusing on myself and doing things outside of work to make myself happy...I am rejuvenated.
And isn't this how it always works...I stopped trying to find a new job and starting trying to find things to make me happy...and BAM, new job. And its a great job. Although it is only a year maternity contract...I am getting tons and tons of great experience, and I am tired of worrying what will happen...its time to focus on the here and now.

But I did learn something, it is wonderful to be supportive of your friends and family but you have to come first. It sounds completely selfish but how are you gonna help your friends if you can't even see past your own misery and unhappiness?

So my suggestion to everyone....do something that will make you happy, do what I did,
take a yoga class, or a jewelry class, or spend an entire day in your pj's watching some sort of marathon on TV. Take some time and focus on yourself.
