Chutes and Ladders - The Real Game!

Have you ever seen a product or read something published and said out loud, "I could do that"? It happens to me all the time. I'm not going to lie - I've lost my desire to write. Whether this is due to the lack of anything happening in my everyday life or the disappearance of random plans, I'm not sure. Once I saw that it had been over a month since I wrote something, I felt like I had to re-evaluate my life so listed below are a bunch of random things I've been thinking about or had happen to me.

• Have you ever asked yourself what happens once you've watched everything you wanted to on Netflix? Yeah, it fucked with my head for a few days too. I didn't think I would be so disappointed in something I normally find to be so trivial but when Roomie Tom and I realized that we watched EVERY Law & Order episode on Netflix, we were actually sad.

We love you Jack McCoy!!!

        We even finished Star Trek: The Next Generation and it still didn't bum me out as much Law & 

        Order. Luckily Charlie has us hooked on "House of Cards" and the Crow and I are searching for  

        non-food documentaries since we are now both questioning out cheeseburgers and that is NOT 

        ok.

Don't worry baby, I still love you!

• Dealing with someone else's disappointment is something I was never good at. Don't get me wrong, I'm here for hugs and can actually listen sometimes but I'm a problem solver - my problem is trying to NOT solve problems. A good friend of mine had his education hopes for the year dashed, the Crow has a fucked up car that could jeopardize our road trip and everyone close to me seems to be in job search hell (even me in that case). Not even my awesome chili is cheering everyone up. It's a very "blah" feeling when you have enough to survive but not enough to do anything meaningful. So because I have nothing funny to say, here are a couple of TNG memes.

• This year will get better! People I like are getting married and having babies or following dreams or (such as the Crow and I), doing things we've always put off (traveling). The gang all seems to be on board with trying to improve body and mind. Hell, Tom and I are even going to Bikram Yoga (a future post, I promise). It's just a slow time of year (there isn't even any muni fights!) and things will get better, money will come and life will happen. One meme at a time. ;)

Anyone else stuck in the "nothing's happening" phase? Let me know in the comments how you plan on getting out!
