Blue

So I was running through Central Park on Wednesday...(ah! Central Park Yay New York!!!) And as I was walking afterword I was thinking of all kinds of things. Just little ways to be happier. I thought of some portable ways to have fun (hacki Sac, Frizbee, instagame) and was brainstorming ways to simplify my life. And I saw this lady walking with head phones and kind of talking, clearly on a cell phone with head phones and I thought "hey, there's a hands free way of keeping in touch.- GOOD idea." So I'm in the process of deciding whether or not to get a blue tooth headset for my phone. This is the list I've come up with so far:
Pros
-Hands free
-Look cool
-Talk while doing other activities

Cons
-look like you're talking to the air...:S
-expensive?..I'm not sure if it actually is
-Sunglasses get stuck- not enough space above the ear

So right now I'm even...thoughts? I'm due for an update on my phone so now is a good time to make this happen. Vote on the poll!!

So why do they call it a "tooth?" I mean I know that's about where it's located on your face but I still feel like that's a funny choice in title.

Instagame

You know you can make a good game out of just about anything! All you have to do is say "pass it on" and see which part of your action someone decides to continue. haha- I just thought of a really sweet social experiment..................pass it on.

Hacki Sac

Hacki Sac = functional, portable, always a good time. You don't even have to be good at it!

A really sweet quote:

"If I don't let myself be happy now, then when? If not now, when?"

I'm not sure who said this but I like it. The more I think about life the more I see that it's either a never ending string of things you love, or a never ending string of things you don't love. How often do you hear someone say "you know, everything this year was really normal. I didn't need to adjust anything and there weren't any problems. Guess I got life figured, I'm good from here on out" ? NEVER, that's how often. And that's what I like about that quote. Changes come. Adjustments come and problems come- but you don't have to wait for them to be "over" to love life or to be happy. Just roll with it and do your best. :)

Twilight Series

What IS it about a sci-fi romance quad set of books that keeps me up til 2:30 AM? Sometimes I'm just stupid? I think I may understand what it feels like to be addicted to a Soap Opera.

"couch"

Do you ever think you're totally over something then go back and realize you're not over it at all? And then kick yourself for going back? Then wonder what to do next? Or if there's really anything to do at all? Sigh* It's like that John Mayer song- in repair. "I could be right, I could be ready, but if I took my heart's advice I shoulda known it's still unsteady." Kinda like when you're really worn out and you're sitting on the couch and you think "I'm ready to stand up" and as soon as you do there's a major head rush and you have to sit back down. That's where I'm at. I don't feel strong, I don't feel full, and my head is a little fuzzy. So......:S...now what? When do I get to leave the couch? Or do I like sitting here? Am I imagining the head rush so I get to stay? I don't even like the couch anymore. It's UNCOMFORTABLE. In fact it's downright TORTUROUS. - but it HAS been good to me in the past. argh I'm tired of thinking about it.

Family

I love my nieces and nephew so much. I literally feel warmth in my heart when I think about them. Today I read a story to my nephew, parker, before his nap. And then I tucked him in and kissed him and turned off the light. And he didn't say anything really cute or kiss me back or anything like that. But it was still so precious even without beins super cute. I would do anything for that little boy. Tuff love included. Same thing for Sarah and Kinzley. They are so special and precious. I wouldn't trade being an aunt for all the Tony's on the planet...serious. Even when they scream at me and spit in my face- sigh* it's the best insult I've ever had. :)

dumb dares

I have a really good friend whose dad is also my really good friend it's a family friend thing if you know what I mean and every week he the family friend's dad aka uncle Tim sends me a list of amazing office dares that I always laugh at but never dare to actually do today I read the list of dares and laughed out loud while i saw myself in my minds eye carrying out the dare the dare consisted of throwing up your hands and yelling opa every time someone announced something as i pictured myself doing it i laughed and thought someone that brave would have to be cool it was then i decided that i would start taking the dares that he sent because why not its funny and i would really like to be cool so dont be surprised if you see me doing really creatively rediculous things for a laugh or just for myself so i can laugh its pretty funny if you really think about it and why not love life for how stupid you can be sometimes so here goes im takin the dare and checkin it off check one write a letter with no punctuation just once alright kinevils my new middle name love you all val

Day 3

So for about a year now I've really been gettin into the whole health foods, whole grain, lots of produce thing. Some would call me "green" or perhaps "granola"- I don't know what I am really but to a lot of people it may be "weirdo health freak". Anyway, I like it. But the point is I'm doing a two week body cleanse/liquid fast. And I just want to put it out there that I love carrot juice. It's creamy and delicious and I like it ok? Secondly I'd like to say that juicing anything that's green or leafy = bile. It's nasty, I will not lie, do not do it for fun because it won't be. Anyways, I'm on day #3 But just for the sake of consistency I think I'll update you on how 1 and 2 went

Day #1-

Graham Cracker: You better eat me before your brain explodes

Nice to have that book finished- What is that odd sensation in my mid section? Could be hunger??...food. soup, more more more More MORE!!!!

How do I get myself into this stuff? The funniest thing is that I would never give it up. I've started now...it's over. I have to finish. I mean I could quit but- I won't. I'm funny that way.
