On The Road Again...

When I sat down to write this post, "on the road again" popped into my head. I really don't know the whole song, only parts. It seemed like a fitting title for this post.

Yes, you are correct. I started online dating again. And yes, you are also correct in that I'm crazy. I am not, however, stupid. I finally dropped the money to join a real dating site. After some careful review, I chose Match.com as my dating site of choice. EHarmony and I have torn past that includes a few not so stellar relationships. The package I purchased from Match.com included their "match guarantee" which means I get 6 months for free if I haves found "my match" in 6 month. Man, I hope I find someone in 6months! In total I get a year of service...that is if I follow a set of rules. I'll get into the rules in another post.

Anyway! So far I've sent out a few winks and I'm hoping to hear back. As I told my friend today, dating is a marathon not a sprint. If I hang in there someone is going to come around...right? Ok, that didn't sound very convincing. Oh well! Here's to getting back out there! Cheers!!

Oh How Things Change...

I haven't posted in months. I'm not sure why, just haven't. I've decided to get back into it. I'm still searching for happiness. I thought moving to Cleveland would solve most, if not all, of my problems. Yeah...not so much. It was a really stupid thought because you problems/issues/baggage follow you. I know this.

So here I am...starting over again.

Maybe this time I will actually get it right. :)

How did I lose March?

I know it's been almost a month...I swear I woke up and it was April. Between the conference in Philly and my interview in Wilmington on Tuesday, I lost the month of March. Things have been crazy busy (I warned you in my last post that it would be like that). I'm job searching as well as trying to do 100 other things. It's still early in my job search process so keep you fingers crossed for me!

There are no men in my life...well that isn't completely true. There are a few really great ones that are hanging around be a just friends. I mean that seriously, just friends. They keep me grounded and don't let me focus on the drama. They are amazing men and I will miss them terribly when I move.

Alright I'm exhausted. Goodnight Moon.

If It Hadn’t Been For Love

I'm leaving for Philalphia on Wednesday so I'm suer busy getting ready for interviews and such. Instead of not posting I'm going to suggest you do some listening. I'm obessed with Adele's new album 21. Its the story of my life. The best place to find the full album for free is MySpace. I suggest listening to the following songs...

Rolling In The Deep
Rumour Has It
Set Fire To The Rain
Lovesong
I Found A Boy
Hiding My Heart
If It Hadn’t Been For Love

Enjoy!

Best Break-Up Ever

I think that was the best break up I've ever had. Weird, right? Doug was really nice and totally understanding. I'm slightly shocked. He said he was disappointed that it didn't work out but he understood that I needed to do what was best for me. He said he wanted to be friends so I told him that was a possibility. I don't know how long the friendship will last but I guess we will cross that bridge when we get there. I feel free and that is exactly how I wanted to feel. I don't want to be attached or tied down. This is going to be good for me! (I feel like I was shouting with that last statement, maybe with a fist pump)

Two hours until my "fresh" starts officially begins. Wish me luck; I'm going to need it!

Breaking Out Of The Funk!

Okay, okay, okay...I know I've posted in a month. My apologies. The month of February was crazy and flew by way too fast. I feel like I was in a fog or a funk for the whole month. I just felt blah and overall not very happy.

Today is the last day of February, perfect for making some changes before March storms in tomorrow.
-I'm just beginning a pretty in-depth job search that I am excited about. Don't get me wrong, moving and starting all over again scares the hell out of me but I think in a good way. I leave in a couple weeks for a job conference that I'm very excited for.
-I'm back on track with WW and watching what I'm eating. I weighed myself and tracked so I'm heading in the right direction!
-I'm having "the talk" with Doug tonight. Things just aren't working out with us...he thinks there is more to our relationship than there is. I just need to end it now and not keep stringing it along. We will both be better for it.
-Breaking up with Doug means I am single (yet again) but I'm totally ok with that. I need some good quality me time! So yes you are correct, I'm taking one of my famous breaks (again). I have a good feeling about this one, that it might actually stick. I have no prospects and I am not interested in restarting something with a guy from the past. They are in my past for a reason, right?

So here I come March, are you ready? I sure hope I am!

Too Busy To Be Happy

I know it's been a long time since I last posted. My apologies. Things have been super busy at work. I've let some things slip and that includes the blog.

Let's recap!

Things with work are super busy and taking up most of my freetime. I'm starting to really think about job searching. This is both exciting and terrifying all at the same time. I'm looking at staying in the area but you never know. I need to redo my coverletter and tweek my resume. I'm not sure when I'm going to have time to do that and all my work stuff. I can't beleive its February already!

The health and fitness stuff has been put on the backburner. I'm really trying hard this week to work off the few pounds I've gained in the last few weeks. Once the weather clears up, I'm going to head back to the gym. I do like working out, I just need to remember that after a long ass day of work.

Doug...we are still going out. I have good days and bad days with him. We are still moving extreamly slow and I'm starting to lose interest. I don't want to lose interest but I want to see if this is going anywhere before I put my heart into it. We are going out this weekend and I hope that something finally happend. I don't know what I'm going to do if it doesn't.

Well that is the update. I'm still looking for my happiness but I am on my way there.

I Love To Hate Facebook

Oh facebook how I love you! I love that you let me stalk my friends, family and former loved ones without their knowledge. I love that I can waste hours at work just exploring the lives of others.

Oh facebook how I hate you! I hate that you tell me things I would be better off not knowing. I hate that you told me MB is in engaged to the girl he dated after me. I hate that you told me that Geoff was "in a relationship" after I sent him a message asking how he is doing.

Maybe I should just delete facebook...
