Hello, again (finally)

It's been a while, hasn't it?

And I realized just yesterday that I'd been neglecting my poor blog, which might explain why I've been feeling kind of...meh. Nobody to talk to!

And then I figured, what the hell, it's not like I'm not crazy enough to talk to myself!

So here I am, talking to myself.

I got nominated and won an award for volunteering, which was awesome. And now I'm super psyched to work the pony rides in April, because yay! Ponies! People who think I'm capable! And hopefully, since we've been having super mild weather, IT WON'T POUR LIKE IT DID A FEW YEARS AGO.

That was, Mother Nature, a big hint.

It also sums up why I want to get out of here. I love this place, I do. But.

I am so tired of the weather keeping me inside. I wouldn't mind snow, because snow is, at the very least, pretty to look at. But rain? Rain makes everything monotone grey and it's cold and nasty and all the dead worms on the sidewalk are DISGUSTING.

Really, all I want is no more dead sidewalk-worms. Is that too much to ask?

And when I went down to California a week or so ago it was like HALLELUJAH THIS IS WHERE I WANT TO BE. It's early February, and 70 degrees outside. It was so weird, but so wonderful.

Also, in a moment of weakness I've started watching America's Next Top Model....and I weep. Three reasons:

How, may I ask, does you get to be 18 years of age and not know what the word 'aloof' means? How you not understand that when nine other people hate your guts, it's not them, it's YOU? And scary Botox-ed models are scary.

That is all I have to share on the subject.

And I can tell right now I'm really out of practice on the whole blogging thing, so I apologize for the poorly-written nature of this post. I'll get better eventually.
