Catch-up/Ketchup

Oh man, a week behind. This is why I could never keep a journal. Anyways, since it's been ALMOST a week, I have a lot to be thankful and appreciative of. Not that this week has been all butterflies and roses, but hopefully it will get better as it approaches the weekend, or at least that's what I'm banking on. :)

Let's see Friday...oh yeah....had a lovely time catching up wit some lovely ladies at Park Tavern in the middle of a rainstorm. Not only did the power go out while we were there, but we got interviewed by the "Dating Diva," who claimed she could find us true love in 30 days. Ummm does she realize that this is real life and not a Disney movie? Plus, I don't think that it only takes 30 days to fall in love. Call me whatever you like, but I think love is a process, and no, I don't think 30 days is long enough for any process. You need your ups, downs, good laughs, good cries, monotonous times, things to celebrate, time to chill out, things to do, places to go, well you get my point. Thirty days or not, you don't fall in love with anyone until your ready and until you're in a position, first and foremost to love yourself. Yes, that was the cheesiest thing I may have ever written, but the annoying thing about cheesy sayings is that they are usually true....

So I think I need a crash course in 30 Days to loving yourself, which is probably already the title of some self-help book. But hey, nobody's perfect and after 25 years of trying to attain perfection in every aspect of my life, I've learned the harder you try, the harder you fall. So maybe I'll try cutting myself some slack here and there and see what happens.

So today, or last Friday I'm thankful for summer rainstorms, dollar drafts and love doctor logic. Because nothing is better than someone telling you how to obtain an emotion. Easy. Stop trying and just let it happen.
