Steadily approaching day 30....

And it all seems like a blurr.  I can't believe it has been almost a month. 

So if time flies by when we are having fun, then does time race at the speed of light when you're in hell?  Just saying.

Before I forget, Happy "VD" people.  I had to work today so I didn't have to endure all of the madness.  I even received a very thoughtful text message from a friend which said:  "Even tho u don't endulge.... Happy Valentines Day sweetie."  For those of you who don't know, I was on a rant a couple of months ago about people and the holidays and blah blah blah so I know exactly where she was coming from and I understand completely.

Let me take a moment to clear my name (LOL).  I do not hate or boycott any "holiday"; rather I just don't see them to be any special than any other day.  I guess what I'm saying is that if I am boycotting, it would be the commercialism of everything and the massive debt that it creates. 

Picture this:  Easter.  What comes to mind?  I'm sure in the top 10 would probably be a new pastel colored suit, hard-boiled eggs, marshmallow ducks and a basket.  Ha ha ha ha !!  I'm not saying that there is anything wrong with that, I'm just saying that I choose not to give it much value.  Holidays are what we decide.

My favorite holiday used to be "Drunk Sunday".   Every Sunday I would go out for mexican food and tons of margaritas with friends and drink until we could no longer speak.  Afterwards, we would crawl into bed and dream "like there was no tomorrow".  It was completely perfect and a once a week celebration that I am planning to bring back soon.  I feel drunk just thinking about it... but I digress.

It's been a month and what have I learned from life and this experience:  Simply put... just listen, follow your heart and take chances.  No one has ever created the life of their dreams by playing it safe and coloring inside the lines.

Note to self:  "Time to get more crayons."
