To a new year and new beginnings...

Isn't that what we all say? Every year. Resolutions, usually including weight loss. Work harder. Do more "fun stuff."

Well although this blog is happening a week into the new year, and implies I have already fallen off the wagon, I would like to think I really mean it this time. The braces are closer and closer to coming off and every day I feel more anticipation. I have started to prepare for their exeunt in a myriad of ways.

First, I signed up for 2 acting classes to oil the old machine. I am so excited! (don't ask how I am paying for them. because it involves walking someone's dog).

Secondly, I decided to get more fruitful sleep. So I bought a bed!!! For the first time ever! And it is glorious. My Simmons Beautyrest Pillowtop and I have become fast girlfriends. But she's the only girlfriend that doesn't keep me up all night with funny stories.

Thirdly, unrelated to my braces, but in an attempt to make my life more full and rich with experiences, I am intending to travel the west coast. Starting today. I went to Malibu, which is only 30 minutes out of LA, but give me a break. Baby Steps people.

Here are some pictures from my lovely day off:

This is before I ate tacos. And then had so much food stuck in my teeth it looked like I had "another bite left."

  1. Good for you! I too will be getting my butt in class but not until we have a little exrtra cash in our house. :) And yay for seeing the West Coast. When you decide to come down and see the cliffs of Palos Verdes, let me know! We can make a date out of it!
