So I went to create a blog and I remembered I already made one

That was kind of embarrassing.  But it was nice to see what I was thinking about 2 years ago.  

Lots of changes since May of 2011.....

-My new house is now a not so new house, my drive to keep it pristine and clean has now been overtaken by a ridiculously (and needlessly) stressful job, and a furry little roommate who doesn't clean the house despite the free rent and food

-Aforementioned new roommate.   A furry black cat who loves cuddling and chicken, but hates being picked up and being startled.  I took her in as a favor to a friend who had more cats than square footage, and a year and a half later we're still inseparable.

-The also aforementioned new job.   I was happy to be out of Mentor Engineering, so I could start fresh somewhere else....now in a way I'd give anything to be back there.   In May of 2011, I worked in a department of 3 people who I developed great, yet different friendships with.   I miss seeing them everyday, but life goes on.


-I am now single, seeing someone, with a variable milage of if there will be a future in it.   I still keep contact with my ex(the person I was dating when I created this blog), but in a lowkey way in which we are hardly a factor in each other's lives anymore.    

-A good friend of mine who I used to date is now making fun of me in heaven.   She's probably telling everyone who will listen about what a pain in the butt I am as we speak.  2 years has past and I still think about texting her to see if she wants to go for coffee.  

All 3 of my siblings are not only adults but high school graduates.  As of September, they will all be enrolled in post secondary schools and I could not be more prouder of all 3 of them.   My Stepmom says that they all look up to me, but in reality I hope they learn from my mistakes as a college dropout who never made it back.   I want them to be better than I ever was, and in many ways they already are. And I don't say that with bitterness, or envy, or regret.  I say it with pride.  

Well, thats aboot it right now.   I will try to keep in touch more often now.  Till then, have a happy Saturday!

  1. We all must learn from each other, as we all make mistakes.

    But she's right, I still do look up to you. You're still my big brother after all :)

    But you're right, it is amazing how much changes in the course of 2 years.
