Ah What a World, what a world!

The months have flown by without a word of useful writing from me. I guess the stress has taken it's toll. But now, in this moment I will take seconds to write ... for I have been too long in creative doldrums.

After much stress we have moved into a new apartment, and a month after the new place I find myself ill. I haven't been this sick since the semester in college where I ended up living with my cousin. She was exploring her views on life and had decided to experiment with lesbian orgies on the weekends. The stress of keeping my grandmother who lived upstairs unaware of the antics nearly killed my already stressed body. I was dating a guy who dumped me, and then a guy I wasn't dating proposed to me in front of my family on Christmas Eve. After a few months of stress with school and men, my cousin's lesbian friends who would not cease to hit on me seemed like just one of many things I had to deal with to get through college if I wanted free rent. When my brain, body, and soul couldn't take anymore, I got sick. Want to die in a hole sick. I am not that sick now, but I am close.

In my many travels I have never caught a weird disease, no I got sick in California with a virus that comes back when I am under a lot of stress. It is set off by me being sick (in this case with a flu) and restarts its viral engine when stress is added. Stupid I know, since life isn't really any more stressful this month than it has been for the last year. I like my new place, my church is great, my neighbors are fantastic, and my husband is amazing. So there is not excuse, yet here I am.

I guess my lack of adventure is weighing on me, which is also utterly ridiculous. So the pictures that I include in this post are not from where I have been recently, but instead represent where I would LIKE to be. I have high hopes that I will be able to get things moving on a vacation of some kind for my hubby and me in December to celebrate our anniversary. We shall see.

Ok, so I have posted, sorry that it is so dull. I promise to write more later when I am feeling better. Till then, I hope all of you are doing fantastic. TTFN
