Currently Edition 4

Oh hello!  My last Currently was in December! My how time has flown!  Already 11 days into April.  OH and FYI, it's been 105 years since Titanic's maiden voyage (NERD ALERT, if you have read my past blogs, you know I am a Titanic fan) and on April 14, it's been 105 years since she sunk.  Since I was 11 I have been remembering this date as if it should be a national day on calendars, to remember.

ANYWAY...April 11! So much has happened since December.  Work pace has picked up, I am heading 3 brand new, and time consuming projects that are actually SO MUCH FUN and I am loving them.  But...alas this is not a blog about my job, it's about the going on's in my life! Here goes nothing...

Drinking

This isn't really as exciting when it's not a festive time of year...but the usualy, coffee from the Keurig in the AM with almond milk.. TONS of H2O throughout the day, I think I spend equal amounts of time at my desk and in the bathroom because I have to go alllll day with all this water.  I will be doing a dry time from June 4th (after a weekend trip with friends) through July 18th (BF and I go to Europe!!! That'll be a blog, don't worry) so that month will be no soda, which I hardly drink anyway, no alcohol, no juices, water and coffee with no added sugars only.

Eating

I don't talk about this much with the world, but I do Weight Watchers...to lose weight AND for the lifestyle changes it instills in me.  Anyway.. since June of last year I have lost a substantial amount of weight.  I go slowly but surely on it but it has opened my eyes to how TERRIBLE some stuff is...like I know it's terrible but I didn't realize HOW terrible.  So it has been good!  And boyfriend enjoys the recipes I make too, so that's a plus! Here's to HEALTHY!  Plus side is you can still eat whatever the heck you want...but it helps you understand portion, moderation, and helps make healthier choices!

Listening

BIG LITTLE LIES SOUNDTRACK ON REPEAT- that is seriously all you need in life right now.  It's SO GOOD.

Also S-Town Podcast. LISTEN. GO. NOW.

Wearing

 LA cannot make up it's mind, one day it's 79-82 degrees-ish and the next it's 65.  And it's been raining A LOT! So I have only broken out sandals a couple times.  And since my doctor is out the whole month of April...it's casual jeans, vans, and button ups or t- shirts for me right now. Which is amazing.

Wanting

KITCHEN STUFF.  I have been an amazon FIEND lately getting all the gadgets I can get my hands on!  Practical, but fun ones.  I want the Veggie Bullet SO BAD, that's on my list of wants.

Reading

I haven't read in a while...I have Devil in a White City downloaded on my kindle...I figure I will save it for my 10 hour flight to London in July if I haven't started it yet.

Watching

Little Big Lies is my recent favorit! Now that it's done.... SADNESS.  I watched The Crown also, it was AMAZING.  Need a new show- STAT.

Fem

I am no feminist, or at least not an activist for feminism, but I just read the most interesting article.  Someone started a tweet chat where they asked men 16 questions of situations that women experience nearly on the daily- down to texting your friend that you got home safely, because this legitimately is something that women have to do.  It was so interesting to me to see how these things are actually ever present in my everyday life. Being a woman- means you DO have to watch your back, you do have to carry pepper spray, or even a small knife with you.  It means walking on streets late at night that there is a chance for something bad to happen. It means that people can blame your emotions on "that time of the month." THIS is a big one for me.  I am allowed to be upset, cry, or express anything I want via tears or with haste if it is upsetting, and NO it doesn't mean it's that time of the month. It means there is a chance that your ideas at work may be look...

A Little Sap

My biggest fear is that I will forget my memories. Whether they be fond, happy, sad, angry, or confusing memories, I don't want to forget them. Hence the reason one blogs perhaps?  Definitely one of the several reasons why I re-started blogging.   Since October my life has been such a cluster.  A blurred-together-all-in-one-cloud--- life.  I can't differentiate what I did in November with what I did in February.  That is not said negatively.  I have enjoyed every moment, adventure, conversation, dinner, drink, walk, hike, drive, experience and discovery that I have encountered.   Someone said to me the other day, "don't just survive, live."  And then I realized, I am living, even though it may look like I am just surviving sometimes.  Although I look at my life and think, I am 28, I live in a tiny studio apartment with no parking, I have a Los Angeles address, I have no significant other, I don't have 35 different friends to hang ...

Good Morning Everyone...!

So a man just walked into the coffeebean I'm at, which is on Wilshire Blvd in Beverly Hills, and announced just like this, "good morning everyone! I am a piece of shit!" No one paid any attention to him. He was clearly homeless, and probably just hungry and has misplaced his marbles somewhere. He proceeded to say that talking bad about himself out loud will make people want to be his friend because they will feel better about themselves. He was then escorted out by an employee. What I'd like to know is who in the world taught him that notion? How sad to think that putting yourself down will attract people that will be your friend.  Poor guy. It's Friday! And hot damn August is almost over. I don't even know where it went. Down some avenue away to some imaginary land I presume. Ever since April I don't even know what I've been doing. Traveling to Los Angeles a hell of a lot to hang out with people, explore, see stand up, eat, drink and be merry. It...
