Squeeze Me Macaroni

I don't want to blog right now. But I will not miss a day!!!

I finally figured out how I'm voting on the propositions here.

1A: NO
2: YES
3: YES
4: NO
5: YES
6: NO
7: YES
8: NO!!!!!
9: NO
10: NO
11: YES
12: YES
WW: YES

I think this is the first time I ever voted on the propositions. If it wasn't for 8, I may have avoided voting all together, but I'm feeling good about voting. I don't think my presidential vote is going to make a difference, especially not in California, but that's ok.

As long as 8 is defeated I'll be happy.

Last night's concert was AMAZING!!

Waiting for the show to start

Ok, that worked! Very cool. Certainly worth the few bucks. Shozu's working well too. Love my iPhone!

Trying to upload my backyard taken with Pano. Liking the app so far. Especially if this works.

Just found out about a plane crash yesterday. So sad. I hope the survivors recover well and quick.

So I've spent the day exploring the web again for the first time in a while. It started with me visiting some artist blogs I used to enjoy. I feel like I've lost a part of myself the last couple of years since I haven't been creating anything AT ALL. I haven't felt passionately about anything lately and I'm trying to rediscover what makes me happy.

Eventually I got to Mighty Girl, which led me to 43 Things, and I found 8:36pm and decided to try it out for a few days. Then I got the Flickr app for my iPhone to help with that. Then I realized that I could connect my Flickr account with my Facebook account. So I've been playing with all that the web has to offer. Which includes blogging again. I may even try NaBloPoMo again this year.

Hmm, let's see if I can keep this up!

So, after over a year, I finally come back to my blog.

I don't know if I would have right now if I hadn't been thinking of replying to someone that had emailed me through my blog last week. Getting that email was totally unexpected, and very appreciated, but as with most emails I get, I haven't replied yet. I used to be so good about the online thing; reading blogs every day, feeling connected to people I only knew in cyberspace, emailing my friends regularly, and sharing my feelings and ideas on my own blog.

And then suddenly, and I don't know exactly why, I stopped.

I think I got more involved with real life. I've never been one of those people that are always in relationships. In fact, my last real boyfriend was over a decade ago. So I guess seeing NBF changed a lot of my habits.

I no longer needed to entertain myself online. Though I wish I had kept blogging. I just read all my old posts from here and it's really interesting to see how things change. I'm terrible about keeping a journal, but blogging seemed to work for me for a while. Now I'm disappointed that I didn't keep it up. I can't even begin to write about all that has happened in the last year. Reading what I wrote in the past really reminded me that stuff gets forgotten if you don't put it down as it happens. I had forgotten a lot of those early relationship feelings I had when I started dating NBF. Damn, I wish I had kept blogging. I'd love to read more about how our relationship progressed instead of just knowing where we are now and remembering some things.

So now I'm in a transitional time in my life because I'm getting laid off. I'm getting paid half my salary through May so I've gotta start looking for a new job. It's the last thing I want to do because I love my job. So I'm having a hard time motivating. It really sucks.

Maybe it's time for new habits. It'd be nice if blogging became important to me again. But I wouldn't be surprised if I don't write again for a long while...

no blog. I wonder if this still works from my Treo...

"smoking or non?"

Not used to that question!
