Who wants a perfect life?

It’s the thought of imperfection that excites me.

Reflections

There comes a time in life… Where need to start following your brain, and stop following your heart.

There comes a time

Ever sit around talking to random people and it hits you. Like a baseball out of nowhere, it hits you so hard it knocks the living hell out of you. What are you doing? What are you doing in your life at this instant? Why are you doing the things you are doing?

This is not a midlife crisis. I’m only 24. Changes must be made.

Remnants of a simply soft meal…

Food! Glorious food…

Many things that we do in life, we take for granted. For instance… Breathing, smelling, being able to look around and see, to jump, to walk, to laugh. Many of these things we take for granted.

This week, I have learnt to appreciate the ability to EAT! I got my wisdom teeth removed on Wednesday, and have been unable to eat solid foods since then. MAN have I learnt to appreciate the ability to chew, savor foods, and then swallow! Having had to drink liquids for the last 4 days has been torture. All I can think of is solid foods that I want to eat!

When you’re hungry at work, all you need to do is go grab a snack at the gas station, and you’re good to go! When it has to be a soft food item, that greatly limits the number of things you can buy! If you really think about it, there’s not much out there for the toothless– especially if you want it to be tasty.

Maybe I should go into the soft foods business… I’ll make a lot of money selling to old people! Or people who don’t take care of their teeth. From now on, I’m going to make sure this never happens to me again. I will take SUCH good care of my teeth, they won’t even know what hit them!

10 days too late…

10 days too late… But not a minute too early. This post is to remember a good friend, co-worker, and person– Darrel Allen. It’s been a year since you died… And not a minute goes by without any of us thinking about you. I’m sorry I haven’t gone by to visit you in a year, but the next time I’m in San Antonio I promise I will drop by.

The world and the streets are not the same without you. When your name is brought up at our lunches, it always fills our faces with laughter and good memories. I dropped by the Westin today, and it reminded me of all the good times we had together. We miss you Darrel… Life is just not the same without you.

It’s midnight…

Okay so it’s not quite midnight. It’s close enough though! Might as well be considering I have to get up in 5 hours. 4 months later and I bring you another totally rare but awesome post! WHY would I be up at 1130 at night if I have to be up at 430 in the morning you may ask?

It’s because I’ve really been asleep since 8! Just got up to take a shower and get ready to go back to bed… OH the life of an Enterprise slave! That’s pretty much how my days run now. Enterprise, eat, sleep. Enterprise, eat, sleep. 11 hours a day, 5 days a week. Throw in a day of errand running and occasional movie night and that’s pretty much my life now! Don’t feel bad for me! (As sucky and pathetic my life may sound.) Summer is here! Bring on the tubing, bbqs, sand volleyball, and laying out by the pool!! My favorite time of the year Mostly just because I can get a tan and it makes me look skinnier!

I’m working out at the airport now, and honestly I love it. It’s a much more simpler time than working in town. I like simple. Simple is good! However, I do get tired of 250-300+ reservation days. Bring back 22 reservations a day! Bring back sitting in a chair and not standing out in the heat! Bring back breakfast taco Fridays!

Which reminds me… I’m hungry. Mmmm… What to eat.
