A New Start is Always a Good Feeling... I Think



Let's get real with each other right off the bat - I'm terrible at blogging. I always think it's the coolest thing ever the first couple days and then I never do it again. But I'm turning over a new leaf, becoming a different person, trying new things so I want you to help me stick with this one. Let's see how it goes!

     Why a new beginning? Well it was recently my twenty-fourth birthday and I found it quite life changing. I woke up and everything made sense. Everything. The recent break-up (G.I. Joe), the not-so-recent break-up (Mr. President), the non-stop working (two jobs), the stupid people - I felt calm about all of it for the first time ever. I'm not a calm person, I blame my mother. This dawning serenity that I just happened to wake up with on the birthday morning, I found it a little odd, but I'm not questioning it and I'm trying not to take it for granted. It was especially strange because I hate birthdays. A lot. I completely dread them every year and don't even get me started on people singing "Happy Birthday". I seem to remember when I was about six and my mom threw a party and all my classmates started singing and I locked myself in the bathroom and cried. I know, I know... I'm probably a freak but that's just how I feel about birthdays. However, this enlightenment made this particular birthday somewhat bearable even though I have no idea what mystic being swept into my room overnight and graced me with such a gift but whatever World, I'll take whatever you want to give me right now. I need all the help I can get.  

     Now I know I've left a lot of things skimmed over, didn't give you much to sink your teeth into, and maybe even left you with a few questions, but have no worries. Hold tight. I have to run along to job number two - the Cuban place, where I have the delightful pleasure of serving and occasionally bartending (today being one of those occasions). So stop by for a drink if you're in town, and if not, I'll get back to the story-telling soon. My life is too much like a sitcom to keep it all to myself anymore.

If you need something to keep you going, check out this song:
"Alone" - Trampled by Turtles
It literally changed my life, but again, that's another story.

Let me know which story you want to hear first or any questions you have so far! :)

Toodles for now, 
Miss Georgia
