Slam Poetry will always be one of my favorite things.

And lately, this is how I’ve been feeling. Especially after today.

Lauren Bullock is amazing and have so much heart … enjoy.

But I’m not trying to be more than your friend,
Nor am I postponing an inevitable end.
After all, they say if you truly love someone, let them go.
So please know that I’m willing to paper crane all your pages until they papyrus the sky
Like the stars we’ll finally discover when they turn out all the lights.
And I may never be the one who sleeps next to you at night,
But at least let me be the love letter tucked beneath your pillowcase
To remind you that no matter what,
You will always, always be worth the read, my love.

Long time no write, blogosphere. I knew that once I bought this domain, I would slack off. I didn’t know for what reasons but I knew it was going to happen because so many of us have been in the same boat. I would blame my family, my friends, my full time job, my side job, my Rizzo, my music, and my art. But I will never because I love it all too much.

I’m hoping to put blogging back to my life by transferring this blog, yet again, to a new domain under a new name. I’d probably lose readers again but it’s not a big deal since my lack of postings probably helped me clear them anyway. If that does happen, you’ll know it’s me once you see those comments.

For those that don’t know, I’m a Graphic Designer by night and Sissy has been trying to convince me to make a website for that purpose. I’ve taught myself everything I know so I’m still learning, but I’d like to start building in case I do decide to become more focused on it and possibly take a few classes for kicks.

I might make a new website name for it, or I might just use AFM. Or AFM will be shut down and never seen again. I’m not too sure as of yet, but I’m hoping to figure everything out soon. I’m aiming high and could probably fall flat on my face. And if that happens, a nose job from that fall might help my looks. So no worries. Everything will work out in the end.

Until next time,

Currently sitting outside in the backyard.
The weather is wonderful.
Rocky and Rizzo are running around.
Can you find them?

I took these boogers walking the other day.
Found out Rizzo doesn’t need a leash.
Happy parent right here.

I’m always trying to write.
My thoughts flow better when I’m out in the cold.
Wrote 2 stanzas in less than 2 minutes last Saturday.

Rizzo is really Asian.
He fits into our family perfectly.

Who else played?
I caught Snorlax and I was done.
My favorite Pokemon.
Did you know he’s over 1000 pounds?!

For The Kids throwback Thursday.
They’ve changed me in ways I cannot explain.
8 days until the 2014 Dance Marathon!

Remember my last post about the coworker guy?
He got me super angry that I had to write to get over it.
Before and After. The After is still messy.
Needs better instrumentals but I think it’s pretty good for finishing in 1 day.
And we’re friends again. haha

And I’ll end with yet another dog picture.
Rocky is creeping on the neighbors.
Rizzo is just chilling waiting to play with him.
They’ve been like that for a good half hour …

Hope you all have a great weekend!

Hello, world. This is going to be a lengthy post so you can just stop while you’re ahead if you like. Life has been a little better on my end. Trying to focus on the positives only and it seems to be working in majority.

The only thing is office gossip about me and this one guy. Apparently we have sparks and everyone can see it but nothing is happening so they’re getting fed up with it. The overall conversation was that I need to get my ass into gear and just put myself out there and not be scared to fall. Yep. My love life is like a television show for my coworkers. You’re welcome, y’all. Glad I can entertain. Don’t forget your popcorn.

I had an hour phone call with Sissy about it. Weird because I rarely talk to my family about my nonexistent love life. She said the same thing … put myself out there and not be afraid. Wonderful.

Today, I had lunch at Spring Creek Barbeque with Lia, Sammy, Saleh, and their friend whose name I do not remember. He has pretty eyes though … The guys just talked to themselves mostly while Lia and I talked about random things. Sammy would comment once in a while. I didn’t even think he was paying attention. Then we went our separate ways.

Joanne me me at my house to meet Rizzo. I haven’t seen her in a year so it’s always a nice time with her. We caught up with so many things then decided to go to Tess’s Ceramics to paint. She had a mug started and I picked a tiny little bowl that has a dog hanging off the side. Perfect for Rizzo to use as a water dish!

We had a super early dinner at Panera Bread and talked about our love life. Her love life. My nonexistent one. Her two cents is that I need to stop being afraid of the past and just go with it. Gah … everyone’s crazy.

Now I’m at Cloud Café. After half a year, I’m finally back and accompanying Joanne since she has to get her studies done. And here I am blogging.

So this post pretty much is nothing but about my nonexistent love life. That I should just get out there and do it.

Advice heard … maybe.

Till next time …
