This is Absolutely Not a Real Post

This is mostly a reminder to MYSELF that I may have kinda sorta been slacking a little bit on the blog type situation. Bad girl. And like its not like I don’t have an idea of what I’m going to write! I know precisely what I want to write about and as time goes on its becoming less and less relevant so I should probably get on that.

Anyway, also if people cared I am still alive. I did not die in my absence, so, so far so good on that too.

Not everyone will appreciate this, again, this is mostly for myself, but I just wanted to treat those of you who will understand the significance of this, a picture of me. Look VERY CLOSELY. ImageGuys. I have COMMITTED to EYEBROWS. I am no longer going remain a member of #teamnoeyebrows. This is going to be a big step for me! Possibly. The problem really became apparent when an adorable small child came up to me and out of nowhere just plainly asked “Why do you not have eyebrows?” And I was like…. small child…… that is a tale you do not want to hear. Aka I was like “Haha I don’t know, they must have fallen off!” So in that moment I became very self conscious of my eyebrows! (or lack thereof) So I decided to give ’em a go and I think I’m committed. haha

So now that most of you still have no idea why on earth I would be rambling on about eyebrows for 7 hours I will end this fake post. I guess I shall end by saying that I went to my fake job today sooooo I guess its been a good day for my fake life! WOOT.

Peace y’all.

And the World Spins Madly On

Sorry for like another post that is not super awkward and embarrassing about things that happen in my life. This will be short I promise.

This song, and title of this post, has always been a favorite of mine. In particular I really like that line, “the world spins madly on.” Recently though, I’ve really begun to realize how true that is. I’ve been in a bit of a rut lately, a “quarter life crisis” if you will. And so when I’m alone and sulking in my own misery I kind of forget that people are out there living their lives. Without me. And I’m missing out on all that. So I’ve really been making a concerted effort to try and run with the world instead of against it.

We are all at different places in our lives. I’m 24. I know people my age who are engaged, married, have kids, are in medical school, law school, working at some real life job. But I also know people still finishing their undergrad degree, living at home, temping, or just traveling the world for a bit. And none of that is wrong. There is no “right” for this time in my life. And as hard as it is for me to come to terms with it, I’m going to make sure to try.

This is my all time favorite cartoon, and reading this particular strip makes me cry every single time. I really love what it says. 🙂

Happy Monday everyone!! Hope the week just flies by!
