unfinished thought

It's never the way you imagined it. Usually it's worse. You wait forever to get there, to experience this grand thing but once you're there, it's so small and meaningless. It breaks your heart a little. But with every disappointment you learn to dream smaller...

Though innocent, Fall always takes the fall.

So last time I posted here I decided to mess around with the layout. That took only several hours of my computer being frozen. FROZEN! Like when they used to get in the late 90s when the hard drive was like 2 GB! It was ridiculous. It was the second time this happened. The first time was when the new template editor was still very new so I thought "well they must've worked out the kinks by now", they did not. I really don't understand. My computer might not be a state of the art thing but it's not from the 90s. *breathes out*

So that experience kept me away from here for a while. It's getting colder outside. I am not excited. I hate winter. I hate the fall because it leads to winter. It makes me feel bad for fall because it's really perfectly fine and innocent but I hate it by association. By this reasoning spring would probably be my favorite season because it means the end of winter and when it is spring, winter is very far away, but where I live we don't have spring. It goes from snowy cold to wet cold to wet warm. So maybe that's the season I like best, wet warm. I prefer dry warm but you know...fall...winter... . I need to move. soon. next year?

Feed Me!

As soon as I saw this picture I thought to myself "Do I have all of the ingredients to make this right now?" Sadly, I do not. :(

It looks so delicious. In case you're wondering, it's pizza bread. I love pizza everything and I love bread. This is a perfect marriage of the two and I am willing to agree to a polygamous relationship with them. Yum.

The recipe for it is here. I will be making this sometime soon for sure!

I like you

So fall is almost here. This means that there are a bunch of new things I want or really like.

1. I am really linking these delicate, simple, little rings such as this one:

They're just so sweet and romantic looking. I think they have a very "fall" look to them.

2. This book co-written by Rafa Nadal:

I think it will be a nice coffee table book. Plus I am interested in getting some insight into his life because he is so private.

OK so I guess that's just two things but there are more, I will add them as I see them.

Today's Thursday

1. Carlos Berlocq is a great example of a great athlete. Even while he was losing 6-0,6-0, 2-0, he kept fighting. His attitude was great. He didn't throw a fit. He wasn't getting visibly angry at himself, he wasn't trying to take out any frustration on the umpire or the ball kids. He just played, and gave it his all. He is a great example of sportsmanship and a great person for young kids to look up to. Being a graceful when winning isn't that hard, being graceful when being defeated is and graceful he was.

2. Bleh.

Attitude Matters

It's amazing how much of a difference your attitude makes. I think that's sort of common knowledge but lately I've been thinking about people who have made me angry and consistently it has been their attitude that has done it. I have a very low tolerance for rude and arrogant people. People often say "You won't get anywhere with that attitude", but that's not really true is it? Rude and arrogant people are everywhere and they're successful. Now that's annoying.

Nice

Today I was having a really crappy day. I was cranky before I even opened my eyes. As I was driving on the highway I thought, I should talk about something nice, because this blog has quickly just become a place for me to complain and that's not the point of it. So, nice things.

#1. I like it when people move out of your way on the highway when you're trying to get onto it from the ramp. That's nice.

#2. Movies. I was very frustrated today and I was wondering how I could just get over it and relax, so I put on a movie and completely forgot about my crappy day.

#3. Food. I know that you're not supposed to reward yourself with food, but food is good, even more so when it's good for you.
