1. time with my son 

2. the opportunity to leave work while it is still light outside 

3. enough time to read an entire book in one day 

4. a cleared out email system (at home or at work would be nice!) 

5. more time to communicate with my friends 

6. to feel better physically 

A blog documents about 3 percent of a person’s life in my opinion.  I would have to do nonstop writing to document it all and then I’d be blogging not living.  I don’t know if it’s just me or if it’s widespread because my perspective could be slanted but doesn’t it feel like the majority of blogland is bored with blogging?  I’ve seen tons of people move, change, stop writing, and perhaps start living?  Perhaps we latch onto blogging when times are tough in order to work through those times.  In fact that’s what I did. 

I’m not perfect now…but I was certainly a mess then.  When I think about the person I am now and how I’m living my life compared to who I was back in 2001, I nearly shudder at the vast differences.  I’m still the same person but greatly improved.   I was just looking at my grades and schedule, just got another A-.  I’ll take it.  I have 39 credits left and then I can enroll into a Masters Degree program.  Me?  Yes, sometimes I scare myself at how much I have changed.

A co-worker of mine just said “ya know what I can’t understand?  Why can’t chickens talk like parrots? It’s so unfair.”
