FREEDOM!!

I am sooo happy to have this space to write on and to be able to access and all that fun stuff.  I was like guitarist with a broken string without a spare one when all the stores are closed for the day.  Well, not quite- but I've got things to express.

Where to begin... how about some thoughts on time and weather?  I can't believe I've only lived in the area for nearly 9 months, and have only gone to the church for nearly 7.  There are certainly many more places to explore and people to meet and friendships to deepen.  It's been the longest summer.  I don't know if it's 'cause it's hotter here or 'cause I haven't changed locations (like happened during college) or 'cause I'm working full-time (a regular schedule can make it all a big long day).  How long ago was spring? (maybe that's it- I don't remember a very long spring) winter?  I don't know what the deal is- if my body just doesn't adjust to hot/cold well; but I was cold yesterday when it was probably 80 at lunch.  What's going to happen when it's 40?  I'm not ready for the fall.  I want to swim.  I want to enjoy the sun.  at least for a little while longer.
It's just one of those times when I feel like I've lived too much to only be 24.  (there are other times when I feel the opposite)  Has so much really happened including traveling/moving to different states since graduating high school? nonetheless--

I've had baked goods for breakfast this week.  Sunday was a stretch- in included a frappucino, which I could and am claiming as a liquefied sort of treat.  <Certain cups of chai are much more reminiscent of something from the bakery, but frappucinos are similar to chai so by association...>  And I've also had cookies and brownies.  This is a pleasant trend in my opinion, but after reading about health lately, and basically deciding I'm far from a healthy eater, this whole idea of my breakfasts lately is slightly disturbing.  but really, is it any worse than doughnuts?
