Halloween

So even though Halloween is not for months... I have been thinking lately about costume ideas and plans....

First of all, since last year I got George to dress up like Fred Flinstone and we did nothing, someone is having a party this year, even if that person has to be me.

Second, I was originally planning to be a warbler for Halloween, but I have convinced George to do the couple thing once again. Although this couple is no longer together... George and I want to go as Don and Betty Draper. So for me I'm thinking that I can go raid the Banana Republic Mad Men line and get a dress that I love (although it will be pricey).... but for George I need to know where to get a reasonably priced skinny tie, and Fidora :-)

Any suggestions?? PS are we corn mazing it up again?? I kind of like it :-)

Time

Sorry it's been so long people but it has been a crazy couple of weeks.

So this post is about time. How we are all letting time get the better of us. As we surge through this thing that we call life, we forget that we would not have a life, but for all the small elements that make up that life. Now I realize that that sentence was a bit crazy, but try to stay with me.

In science, you have protons, neutrons, and electrons which make up an atom. An atom makes a molecule. Molecules form together to make everything that we see before us. Life is kind of like this. We have friends, work, personal time, hobbies, etc. All of those things can be likened to atoms. Now we need all of these things to make us the people that we are. Now here is the catch, all of those things need the right amount of time dedicated to them to continue to exist. Therefore, for example if you spend too much time at work, you will not have enough time for friends. Therefore you will be missing a piece essential to the making of you. Thats not right people.

Everything in life is a choice. Every choice you make you are choosing one thing at the expense of another thing. I'm just asking people to start thinking about their choices. If you have a job that requires way too much of your time, and still you are not making ends meat, maybe it is time to think about looking for another job. If you are spending too much time watching TV and lounging around the house, maybe it is time for you to think about getting a hobby.

Just remember people... life is way to damn short, and we need to live every moment to the fullest. I see too many people these days who seem to forget that they have lives outside of their day to day routine. It's sad. I understand times change, people change, but if we all put in the smallest amount of effort, we don't have to loose the things that mean the most to us. So what do you say? its never too late to make a change!

Wow, so that was probably the least cohesive blog that I have ever written... but that is what happens when you don't write for two weeks, with all the thoughts just spilling out through my fingers. Sorry people, more frequent, more poignant blogs in the future :-)
