Colder weather . . . booooo!

Wow it's getting cold. I hate the cold. I hate it so much that if it were a living thing, I would . . . do something really mean to it! The cold is a terrible thing. You have to start your car a good ten minutes before you want to leave so it can defrost and this of course wastes gas which, as you know, isn't cheap! Then you have to bundle up in layers so you don't freeze your butt off. But no matter how many shirts and coats and socks you put on, you will still be cold. You can wear gloves and a hat, but you will still be cold. Then once the snow comes, it gets even colder! Then you have to deal with those crazy people who actually like the cold and the snow because chances are, they will throw as many snow balls as they can at you which will make you even more cold than you already were because now you have snow going down your shirt! If you let those crazy people get near you, they will probably white wash you. Which of course means even colder! Don't go near the crazies!

I suppose there's a few good things about the weather getting cold. The trees, for instance. I get that green is a pretty color and all, but when the leaves start turning red and orange and yellow, that's beautiful! When it gets cold, a lot of the bugs disappear. Now I really like that one! Plus, winter clothes are awesome! I'm a girl so of course I like clothes and cold weather brings out boots and long johns and long sleeve shirts and scarves and cute gloves and beanies and fuzzy socks and the list could go on forever!

I still hate the cold.

Better than ever =]

Wow I'm blogging again! It's been almost two years. I basically forgot about it. I get on these kicks where I'll do something for a few months, then I'll stop. I did it with scrapbooking. I've done it continually with reading. I'll read three or four books then I won't read for a couple of months. Then I'll read some more. I do it with TV. I'll get really into a show and watch it as much as possible for about a month. Then I won't watch it again for a few months. And I did it with blogging.

Anyways, here I am again. I've done a lot in the last year and a half. I've loved and lost. I've fought and cried. I've laughed and been really confused. I've lost some people that I thought were friends and gained some even better ones. I've grown up and found the love of my life. I've changed my life course almost completely.

It's very simple. We met. We became friends. We fell in love. It really is that easy. When someone tries to drop a brick right in the middle of your love, it makes it stronger. When someone scoffs and shrugs, it makes it stronger. This is about two people who merged lives and are now living one that is better. It's very simple. I never imagined that love could be this simple. It always seemed to be pretty complicated. And I suppose that's because it wasn't right. But once it's right, it's so incredibly simple.

A year and a half ago, my life was work and partying. Now, it's work and life. I still party. But my priorities have changed. I've grown up. Work is definitely at the top because that's how I survive. Then I think love is probably next. The love of a man, four kids, and a cat. The love of friends and family. Then of course partying and going out. Even though I don't party like I used to because I can have just as good of a time relaxing. Probably a better time actually. I don't feel that need to get out and get drunk and run around like a crazy person that I felt a year and a half ago. The feeling actually disappeared about a year ago. And since then, it's just gotten better.

Well I think this is as good as it gets.
