Currently in (mid)January

|
January is here, and I'm a little bit behind. I can't believe we're already into the second week of a new year.

Current Book(s): I have four that I'm working on currently. Who knows when I'll finally finish them all: A Million Miles in a Thousand Years; The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society; The Road; and The Screwtape Letters.

Current Playlist: I've been listening to grooveshark lately where I can make my own playlists, which include Lady Antebellum, Owl City, Rob Thomas, Wicked, Newsies...

Current Shame-Inducing Guilty Pleasure: The Bachelor. It's on. It's reality TV. It's staged. But it's entertaining.

Current Drink: Water. Not so exciting, but oh-so-healthy.

Current Food: Chicken tortilla soup. I made some for my parents the other night and I'm still feasting on the leftovers.

Current Favorite Show: Glee!

Current Wishlist: Nicer weather or warmer running clothes.

Current Needs: Groceries. I haven't been home long enough to get organized and go to the store.

Current Triumphs: Updating my blog. ;) I've been absent lately doing everything but updating, and I'm on my way back.

Current Bane(s) of my Existence: Stuff in my apartment that needs to find a permanent home. This includes a set of rollerblades, size 8, and a very lovingly used golf bag with extra shoulder strap.


Current Celebrity Crush: Gerard Butler. Lovable guitar-playing Irish hotness in P.S. I Love You. 12-pack hotness in 300. Mysteriousness in Phantom.
Hello, Handsome

Current Indulgence: Oreos & milk. I eat too many, too often. I'm sure that soon I will tire of them for a while, but they're here now.

Current Blessing(s): Being able to see God's hand in creation. The narcissus bulbs that I planted last week greet me with new growth every time I come home. It's fascinating to me that a bulb without soil will just stay a bulb. But when you add water + soil, a miracle happens.

Current Outfit: Jeans and comfy tshirts. And a hoodie when I'm not worried about the need to impress anyone (or ending up on WNTW).

Current Excitement: A new year with new things to learn.

Current Mood: Tired and trying to relax, but the knots in my shoulders think differently.

Current Link: www.ihategreenbeans.com Hilarious commentary on every episode of The Bachelor.

As a fellow Glee lover, I bet you would appreciate this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hQAKfSbjf6s :)

Also, I am unashamed to admit that I am totally watching the Bachelor as I read this...

oh mai.

i've missed you being around. i don't follow that many people so i REALLY notice when one goes AWOL so i'm glad you're back(ish).

and i could probably leave a comment on every single thing you wrote, but i unfortunately don't have the time. i know you'd love it, but i just can't right now, so i'm leaving this lame(ish) comment instead. haha.

one thing: totally agree about gerard butler. however, my crush would have to be mark ruffalo. my mouth is watering just thinking about him... yum...
