currently:

at work.  ready for the day to end, ready for a nap, ready for the weekend.

right now, i'm daydreaming about food: about the nutella hot chocolate i had last night, the cajun crab legs i'm going to make tonight, and the lime cilantro chicken tacos i'm going to make tomorrow night (courtesy of my slow-cooker:)).


feeling: so inspired lately.  like, more than ever before.

all i can find myself wanting to do is to read blogs, to write blogs, to find new projects to start, to create things.  i want to knit, to craft, to bake.

maybe it's the shift in season.  maybe it's a shift in me.  maybe both.  but all i know is i have this ache to be creative.  a new side of myself i've never experienced before and i am LOVING it.

 


wearing: a frilly black top under a high-waisted black and red plaid skirt.  the skirt was thrifted;) the Goodwill clerk had to pull an entire mannequin apart to get it for me.  and i'm in love with it.  i have to stop myself from wearing it every day;)


listening to:  this song.  i'm not normally one for anything techno-ey, but i just love the lyrics in this one and the beat always makes me get up and dance.

reading: blogs and Bittersweet.  i've been scouting around Amazon for books that are inspiring and an easy read.  any suggestions?

watching: The Hills. :P my best friend is coming down in a couple weeks to visit and we have a night in Hollywood planned.  i'm trying to get inspiration for Hollywood-esque things to do.


anticipating:

+Ethan coming back from training this weekend.

+my best coming down the following weekend.

+&& my mom coming down two weekends after that:) so much time with the people i love!

+going up to Julian with Ethan some weekend (soon?<3) to do some pumpkin and apple picking and exploring.  i'm hoping it will be chilly enough to wear boots and a cardigan<3

planning on:

+trying to start running 5 days out of the week.

+trying yoga. (after all, i have a DVD sitting on my TV simply collecting dust right now.)

+spending more time knitting.

+spending more time looking at majors and getting feedback to figure out what it is that i want to DO with my life exactly.

 


working on:  finishing re-doing my room.  there is still so much stuff that needs to be sorted, re-organized, put away.


wishing:

+for rain and some extensive fall foliage.

lil guy makes me happy.

+for a day to myself to do whatever i want.  in my mind that looks like: sleeping in.  drinking a cappuccino.  eating a lot.  watching Roseanne.  laying out and reading a book.  going exploring somewhere.  holding Ethan's hand.

loving: how much i've been blogging.  how happy i've been.  how creative i've been feeling.  that, in less than 24 hours, i'll get to see Ethan again.  finding so much music that i LOVE.  oh, and Pinterest, of course.  where i'm getting all my inspiration, as of late<3
