Coffee Talk

Happy Thursday! Let’s have a little coffee talk. Like it’s just you and me chatting and catching up over an almond milk latte.

I'M FEELING: a bit overwhelmed.  I work in event management professionally and this week I have nine events all over the country, seven of which are tonight. It is a lot of moving pieces and I have that pit in my stomach that I’m forgetting something and I’ve let something slip through the cracks.  It feels like I've got two giant bricks on my chest and I can’t wait for tomorrow morning.

I'M THINKING ABOUT:  the bigger picture of blogging. I blog in waves. I find myself full of motivation to create quality content and devote a lot of time and energy to this little space. But then I taper off and I lose that momentum because I don’t have enough time or am in a creative rut. Perhaps it’s my MBA program helping me think about business ventures or it’s the fun of meeting new bloggers (like Kristyn who lives in my building) but I feel like I’m on an upswing and don’t want to lose the momentum again. I don’t have a solution yet but that’s what I’m thinking about.

I'M EATING: grapefruit! I HATED grapefruit growing up. In fact, I once broke up with a boyfriend after he told me as a baby he drank grapefruit juice rather than milk. Kidding. I didn’t break up with him after that but that sure was a character flaw. Amongst others... They were on sale at my local supermarket so I thought I’d try them since I’m so old and mature now in case my taste buds have evolved.  Boy, have I been missing out.

I'M WATCHING: Parenthood. And I’m crying a lot too. Like Kim Kardashian ugly crying.

I'M LISTENING TO: Only One.  I know everyone hates Kanye but I kind of love his hot mess self. He’s just such an unpredictable ass but I can’t look away from the train wreck. Also, Nori is a D-I-V-A and I love it.

Happy Monday Tuesday, folks!

I tried, oh how I tried, to get organized enough to have a posts ready for the week. In fact, I tried just about everything to avoid studying for my upcoming accounting midterm. I'm happy to report every towel in my apartment is washed, my carpet is vacuumed, floors swept, everything is dusted, each pantry shelf is organized, DVDs are alphabetized, and my make up brushes are washed. You get the picture. Turns out, I still had time to study and that's what I did. All.Freaking.Weekend. As an undergrad, I was all about the late night study sessions the night before an exam and not surprisingly my GPA reflected that. Apparently, my present day study habits are kin to pregnant women nesting. No, I'm not pregnant; I'm drowning in accounting practice problems. Hey, at least my apartment is clean.

And if you're wondering....no, I will not be sitting for the CPA exam anytime soon. Or ever. Cash flow statements make my head explode.
