So...I have a blog!

I've been meaning to start this all summer, and today I suddenly found inspiration. Well sort of. I found inspiration to start the account, but changing the settings so this looks unique instead of like my high school Xanga is a whole different story. I'll get to that eventually.

So..my blog is going to be a lot like my brain...random and disorganized. I will write about what I feel like talking about for the day. Many subjects could be covered. You never quite know what to expect from me.  I'm thinking some things you might see in this blog include: recipes (I made awesome meatloaf and garlic mashed potatoes this week, and I made my easy pot pie again because it always makes everything better), how much I ran on a given day (4 miles on Tuesday, quite an accomplishment for me), things I really want to go shopping for (I haven't bought shoes in 6 months and I think I really need some platform pumps), the type of wine I'm drinking right now (Yellow Tail Pinot Grigio, last night St.Croix Vineyard Seyval), a song or artist of the day that you need to go re-familiarize yourself with (today I heard What's My Age Again on the radio...enough said), miscellaneous rants (WHY did I apply for a job at Mall of America if the parking situation during the holidays is going to drive me insane?), my opinions on what happened on Gossip Girl and ANTM this week (the fact that Jane didn't get sent home completely made my day), the number of times I've eaten bacon or potatoes this week (bacon 1, potatoes FOUR, sadly...really, what do you call someone that's addicted to potatoes? Do they have support groups for this?), my inspirational song lyric of the day ("I'm jumping off the edge, I know it's a long way down, but you can't walk the wire for anybody else, I might hit the ground, but at least I'll have a story to tell, she said, I'm gonna find out for myself"...Brie Larson...this is a teenybopper song like no other, but it kind of speaks to where I am in my life right now, and Brie also plays a lovely role in Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, which you NEED to see), and most importantly, something or things I'm happy or excited about this week (my interview today went really really well, the weather was gorgeous and I walked around the lake TWICE, I got to model jazzy outfits for my friend's class project, I splurged on a really cute dress at Target that I will wear for the holidays with a cardigan and tights, AND best of all, I keep realizing every day how many people there are in my life that care about me, that I can consider good friends. I've been feeling a little down recently but this week I realized how loved I really am. Best feeling I could ask for.).

And...there was a random, babble-filled preview of what my blog will be about. Ugh, seriously, who is ever going to want to read this? I hope you still do, but if not, I'm still going to write anyway. I don't want my blog to be a popularity contest. I just want a place to speak my mind. Anyway...time to go get ready to do something fun tonight!

Songs to listen to: Sunsets and Car Crashes by the Spill Canvas
Carry on Wayward Son by Kansas
She Said by Brie Larson (STOP ROLLING YOUR EYES)

Last but not least....Here is my dress!

I want to put a picture but I'm not sure how to do that yet
