I have some of the coolest people in my life. My roomie Pam, my buddy Nicole and I went to the art walk yesterday. It was amazing!! On the way there we noticed some people playing bongo drums and singing reggae in front of this house. We were like "dang, sure looks like a group we should party with..." just happens I knew one of them and within minutes WE WERE partying with them. How awesome!! We did the walk and went back to the house for a street party with a DJ. It was pretty rockin'. Pam was a bit on the sick side so we called it quits early that night...but it was a total blast!!
Oh did I mention that I'm talking to boys again. Ha! Yeah, not dating, I'm not in a dating spot with things right now...but talking. It's fun. One guy is totally awesome and I agree with the way he identified with the world, time and space...the other one...well...it's odd because he's entirely not good for me, yet...he gets me. Like the words I'm saying, he understands. Isn't that strange?? I don't know if I've ever met a guy who actually took the words I said and...got it.

Switching It Up

I'm changing stuff, things that don't work go out and things that work stay in. End of story!
I've got two important meetings today and they may mean a happier, healthier me, at least that's what I'm counting on. We'll have to see.
Other than that, life's good. I've got a lot going on. Things are right. I love my new house, it's wonderful. Sure my roommates can be pills on occassion but that's okay too, I'm learning how to deal with that and I think it's making me a better person.
For example, after my weekend camp trip, I came home and there was someone else's underwear in my room! YIKES! I wanted very badly to completely flip out. Instead, I washed my sheets, announced to the house that who ever left their underwear in my room could find it in the living room, and I used tongs to move the underwear to the center of the living room. Magically, it disappeared...ha!

I Am The Filter

When I date, I've found that I filter out the weak with my completely insane personality and wild taste in...things.
For example, Brad came over last night for our very first movie night together. Hahahaha! I warned him that I'm very bad at picking movies. We started with "Trailer Park Boys- The Movie" and when that got to be just too bad, we switched to "Super Bad." Mind you, I LOVE that movie but it was completely inappropriate for a first movie night. It was rather funny how odd the whole thing seemed. I kept trying to force alcohol on him so that he wouldn't seem so nervous and instead he thought I was trying to get him drunk for my own benefit...it was comical. I enjoyed it! :) HAHAH! If you he doesn't run away now, then he just might have more potential than I gave him credit for.
Mind you, Brad's entirely different from anyone I've EVER dated. He wants to get to know me as a friend first and then we'll go from there. He haven't kissed, we haven't gone that route at all. I know he's interested in me like that and yet I know that he cares more about who I am than anything else. I'm so use to guys just wanting to jump my bones and worrying about getting to know me for me later that this is a total breath of fresh air. It's so exciting that I'm both intimidated and confused by it. I want this but at the time I'm just not use to it and change can always be scary.
