On the road again...

Tomorrow morning, I’ll head out on what may be my last roadtrip of the year. With one of my infamous playlists blaring through the speakers of my trusty steed, Truckzilla, I’ll use the time trotting through the desert to clear my head and plan for the new year…that is just over a month away! Really? HOLY CRAP! Where has the time gone ?!?!

I know I repeat it ad nauseum, but I really have come a long way this year. Every day I am amazed at how strong I have become. Those of you who know me personally understand that I am the last one to toot my own hor. But maybe it’s not a bad thing to do every once in a while; there is nothing wrong with showing some pride in yourself. I’m pretty fricken rad! Yup, I said it :) I don’t accept compliments very well…need to work on that!

Aside from self reflection, this weekend is the start of several new adventures. I’ll be bouncing all over the L.A. area meeting up with a new , connecting with co-workers I don’t see often enough, and supporting a VERY talented friend as he embarks on a new chapter of his life. If the rain holds off, I’ll be able to cross a thing or two off my bucket list. No matter what, I’m going to enjoy the shit out of this weekend!

This is not getting any easier!

I was brought to my attention not too long ago that I wrote a blog a little while back where I stated that I was not going to join an online dating site. I had a little sit-down with myself and decided that there is no harm in seeing what it's all about. While I am not entirely impressed overall with the process or guys that it thinks I might be interested in, it's definitely a...different...experience. While it can be a little frustrating at times, I have been connected with a couple nice guys that seem like we could build great long-lasting friendships if nothing else. In all fairness, I'm going to give it until the end of the 6 month term before I make a final judgement or choose to renew.


My current dilemma is this: when I originally signed up, I asked to be matched with guys in Nevada and California. I was trying to branch out and broaden my horizons, unfortunately this poses a question to be considered: what if I meet Mr. Right and he doesn't live in Vegas? I'm going to try to not think about it too much and cross that bridge when, or if, it actually happens. Until that time, I'll just keep swimming...
