Currently... December 2014

It looks like my last Currently post was in May-so I think it's time for a little update here! 

Reading: Dragonfly in Amber by Diana Gabaldon on my iPad, but I've been obsessed with Audio Books lately for when I'm in the car, working, or cleaning.  

Watching: Gilmore Girls.  I've seriously binge-watched that entire series for the last month.  How did I never know what I was missing?  That stupid show made me cry more than once.

Writing: This blog.  There have been papers, lots of papers, but otherwise everything else is on the back burner.

Listening: Audio Books pretty much exclusively.  I just finished the entire Goddess Test Series and The Hangman's Daughter via Audible (reviews coming soon), and I think the next one I'll start is The Dark Monk.

Eating: Too many bad things.  I need to seriously get my diet back on track.

Drinking: Water and a LOT of coffee.  I found this local coffee called Highland Grogg and it's amazing.  I'm also liking Trader Joes' Wintery Blend coffee.

Wearing: Jeans, fun t-shirts, and sweaters and scarves.

Working on: Christmas gifts!  Seriously, Kristina and I had a great idea and put it into play.  I can't wait to share it with you all after-so it's not spoiled.

Waiting for: Work to be over.  Josh is in town from Canada and will be at my house tonight and I'm DYING to see him.  I got the guest room all set up, went grocery shopping, and I've missed my best friend so much! 

Loving: These Christmas gift ideas, Josh being in town, audio books, and spending time with friends.

Needing: To go back to the gym.  I've slacked bad and I'm starting to feel it.

Thinking: That I've just gotten used to living alone, and now Josh will be here for a month and I'll have to get used to it all over again.  I'm not complaining, I'd take him being here for however long or short he will be-I miss him so much. I'm wondering if it's going to make me really sad again when he leaves, or if I'll adjust faster since I've already done it once.  

Feeling: Oh feelings... This has been a weird one for me lately.  I'm feeling that pull to start dating again.  I hate dating.  I want to just be with someone who's comfortable already-but I know I have to go through the dating process to ever find that.  I keep feeling like I want to reconnect with guys from my past, but I keep shaking that off. I need to move forward, not backward.  But man-the feelings.  I've been kind of emotional, and maybe a little lonely.  But that's the holidays!  In other feelings, I've been feeling a lot of compassion for people I tried to hate.  I never can hate anyone, but I have to watch my damned bleeding heart to make sure I don't fall back into anything.  Again, forwards, not backwards.

Hoping: That I do better in school next semester.  This semester was probably the worst I've done since I went back to school.  Not failing, but passing with Bs and Cs, and I don't like it. 

Dreaming: Of a reality where no one leaves, and you don't have to date in order to find love.  No, I'm not being stupid about it-but man wouldn't it be nice if things were easier on the heart?

  

Being Inspired By: Amazing creative writers.  I really need to follow that dream.
