A Better Version of Myself.

Glimpses of a life that will not provoke jealously or resentment, rather, a simplistic understanding of an understated life.

I'm Wide Awake It's Morning!

Hello! I am sneaking back into the blog world with little intention of sharing my return. I ceased the blog for a while partly because I felt like I had nothing to write about and primarily because what was going on in my life I wanted to enjoy. It got to the point where everyone one knew alot of things about me and I knew little about them... so is the risk of typing and posting on the internet. So I return. I am not clear on my intentions, and whether this will be a regular thing. Life is solid right now and many things have changed for me, for the better, for the best. There are elements that are certainly the same, you could say that my inner workings have proved to be something that will take gallons of vodka and years of shock therapy to correct.

Where I'm at: I got a new job, one that allows me to work and go home and not think about work. I really enjoy it and think that this could be my match. I basically do employee training and development for the state of iowa and get to devlop things like diversity panels and get to be involved with some pretty sweet people. I dig.

I moved into a sweet new place- I live by myself, which I am really digging. I love not having to schedule things at home like showers or meals or television. Though I will say that I just sit in the quiet when I am home- not in the dark or anything, but that comfortable silence that I have missed in the last few years. I am not home alot, moving has brought me closer to downtown and given me a desire to spend time with a variety of people. I really like that.

My physical self is healthy- I have dropped 150 pounds- (which is a person) and everything has been superb. I am getting used to it all- I would be a fool to think that this has not had more of an impact on my life than I could have imagined. I won't get too into it- it feels too fresh right now, still, but it has definitely changed many things for me. It feels right, sort of like I was really missing out, like I was an imposter... I suppose you cannot fully understand it until you have experienced it but I have not completely experienced it so I am at a loss for explanation.



What I am listening to right now:

The new Decemberists album. excellent.
Okkervil River
Citizen Cope

tis good.

Be well.
