Ravishing Roses and Unsettled Spirits

I’ve never liked President Bush so much as I do right now… he seems almost as excited as I am for him to leave the White House.  If you see he talking about it, he looks all giddy and smiley!  He and Obama just had their transition meeting. While watching clips on the news of a stroll they took, I couldn’t help but admire the roses surrounding the White House (They were almost as ravishing of a red as Michelle’s dress!)

In an exerpt of The Audacity of Hope, Obama explained the White House as being more drafty than one might expect.  I hope they double-pane those windows and seal up those cracks because it’d be super cool if the White House became the model “green” house… and I sure hate to think of those cute little girls feeling cold at night.

 

On a totally separate  note, I am the worst grocery shopper in the world.  I think it’s because I buy everything I wish that I’d feel like eating (such as veggie stir-fry and raw almonds)  I buy uuber healthy food that never sounds appealing and then I end up sitting at home wishing I had cereal besides Wheetabix to curl up with… I wish I had fresh strawberries to slice up, or homemade mac and cheese or something delicious such as those things.  I need to become a realistic grocery shopper.

I just go the sweetest text message in the whole world from my often quiet and very modest roommate, she said:

” ‘Unsettled spirit’ that’s the phrase my friend once used to describe me.  His meaning was that i needed to travel and experience the world and myself.  That is a feature I think we share.  I can’t wait to see where the future takes you.  Love you girl.  Thanks for being amazing.”

I find that so incredibly touching, I don’t know how to reply.

She’s right, I feel antsy lately and I’m looking at some other options for the future… not for a while because I just got a shot at an internship with the Children’s Art Museum in SLO and I like my life for now, but I foresee a need for change in the near future.  I’d like a faster pace, or another/more generous source of income, and a new environment to learn.  I’d also like to stop taking birth control, I hate it, I don’t feel like myself and it’s just very terrible.

I’ll try to write more often,  I hate the thought of boring my dad with my lack of recent posts.  What on earth will he do?? 

PS- Beyonce’s new CD is actually very good, and I’m stoked on Muse lately.  That’s all!
