  ...and he's changed his name to Martha! ah... *sigh* Those were the days, huh? The only things I miss about high school are the things that didn't have anything to do with the schooling itself.
Could it be nearly ten years already? Shite! Anyway... Yes. Ahem. Anyway, this is my second Blog. My first fell into oblivion last fall. See, the unfortunate focus of that Blog was the January 2003 suicide of my 19 year-old brother, Daniel. It was something I just had to get through at the time. Obviously that's not something you ever really get over, but I'm definitely feeling a lot stronger. Strong enough that this Blog is titled, "Spread Sunshine! " as opposed to "01.27.03: The Brotherless Life Begins.
" Just saying "Spread Sunshine! " makes me feel better, even if I don't always mean it. :-) Briefly, more about me. I'm 27. (Ouch. ) I'm a Sagittarius with Capricorn rising, which means I am a very moody Sag. I love Led Zeppelin. I don't have any tattoos. If I could eat fast food every day for the rest of my life and not gain an ounce, I would. I love my cat and I hope she never dies. Christmas is my favorite holiday, but I hate winter. I have a thing for shoes and handbags. I am a compulsive shopper. Steeler games make me very, very happy.
I will never work in a hotel again as long as I live, I swear it. Oh yeah... and I'm a girl. Moving right along... Life is pretty decent right now. I'm having some trouble sticking to my fitness goals and I haven't kept any of my New Year's Resolutions for 2004, but... hey, wait. Yeah, I did!
Anyway...
I can't really complain. I think my drinking is under control. (Yeah... that was getting to be a crisis after Dan died. ) I'm finally done with that shitty ass Comfort Inn, thank you, Jesus. Now I'd like to focus on: (1) Getting back on track with my diet and fitness goals, which will ultimately lead to my losing those last ten pounds!
; (2) Learning how to cook... one of my New Year's resolutions that I kept for about a week and a half back in January; (3) Reading more books; (4) Writing again, I miss it so; (5) Being true to myself and being the best person I can be. Sorry to be a cornball, but that's how I feel! Onward, ho!
