#250; the year of doing things

SONY DSC

Last week I wrote about my ‘sort of Resolution’ to cut toxic people out of my life. Later that I night I had a few drinks with those friends who enrich my life in ways I can’t even count and who are helping me through a rough time here in Boston. After the first round of Jäger bombs, we labeled such friends “Crayolas” (beause they’re like the non-toxic crayons, which made a lot more sense to me when we came up with it), and the title’s stuck. And so, with the Crayolas (I really want to start a band called that, btw), I’ve resolved to have an awesome year. I’ve resolved to try something Boston-based best friend Kat is called the Game Plan of Conversion. Because neither of us make New Years resolutions, we’ve got the Game Plan. Mine involves taking advantage of Boston and spending as much time with the Crayolas (and Boyfriend Piece, of course) as possible.

I want my cold to DIAF. Scratchy throat? Check. Mildly feverish? Check. Lack of attention span? Check. Social plans on hold until further notice? Most Annoying Check Of All. General crummy feeling? Oh yeah. That too.

So I look to you, my geniuses and savants, my mom readers and fellow crazy twenty-somethings… Help a girl out. What are your favorite remedies? Home cooked ideas? Old family secrets (I won’t tell anyone, I promise!) are more than welcome here. Let’s divulge and help each other through the Spring cold season, eh?

#176; testing 1 2 3… it’s so hard to say goodbye

This morning myself and Tier got up at 5am, drove an hour, and sat freezing on a park bench for twenty minutes. Then we drove another hour home. It will be my last sunrise on the Virginia coast. VA Beach is beautiful that time of day (heck, anytime of day) and I’m going to miss it. To be honest, there is so much I’m going to miss.

But I’m glad I got to say my goodbyes.

(in other news, with the move and all coming up in a couple of days, this is my testing out my Droid WP app…)
