I'm kinda sucky at this.

Yes, I am kinda sucky at writing in this beautiful little spot of the world I've created, but who's to say I won't get better? You see, there's this pesky thing called life that gets in the way of me writing, even though I've always dreamed of writing in a journal everyday. I've also dreamed of my husband working full-time while I sit at home, done with my cleaning, and read a book in the sun while eating bon bons. Well, let me tell you, I'm currently sitting in my office, doing accounting stuff. IT'S BORING. But it pays the bills.

I also seem to have developed this thing with being content with just going home and lying there, not doing anything. Okay, so I have also developed this taste for doing extremely out of the ordinary things, like deciding I want to do photography for a side job (which never turns out well, but we'll talk about that another time) , or that I've decided I'm driving to Cincinatti in March to see ONE band. It's just that I've decided I want to be lazy, and then I want to do things, and being lazy has never existed well with the idea of getting shit done. Henceforth, an impasse.

I don't feel as if being lazy is limiting, it's just the fact that I work 9 hour days (with only 30-min lunches) and then I get a long weekend. It's nice, but it tears me apart when I don't do anything on the weekdays. I'm just laying there in a puddle of my own drool looking at my new 52" LCD TV (thank you job!) with Judge Alex Ferrer yelling at stupid people. Still, even watching a show that serves justice to stupid and ugly alike, I still feel unaccomplished during the week. So I've decided something. I'm going to do something for my house for one hour each day. I'm thinking of making this into a 365 project. I'm getting kind of excited. It's the domestic goddess in me.

I've wanted to start a 365 project for a while, just to improve my photography skills. My husband and I were in the same photography class in highschool, and we have a few tricks up our sleeves when it comes to taking pictures. However! I do not have a Digital SLR camera, just a regular SLR camera, and a regular digital camera. My husband hinted at a D-SLR for my birthday (which is freaking 7 months away!), and it gives me flutters of the heart. I'm thinking this will be a good change. /obama speech

Well, back to work, accounting shit is not so easy when you're glued to the internets.
