hump day sucks.

but it's the perfect time, while i'm stuck in the slump (or hump),

to put a few thoughts down to reason (or rhyme)

[lots on my mind]

with my notice to Tustin Ranch put in and operation:SF well underway, i've had a huge weight lifted off of my shoulders. i'm determined to make the most of my time left here in Southern California, as well as get things done in preparation for the big move.

i can't wait.

the job search, i realized, needed to slow down. 2 months is a long time in job world, and it is a little early to expect someone to hire me for mid-september. i'm still keeping my fingers crossed, though.. hoping things will work out with a few of my leads.

it's amazing how things have progressed in the past few weeks. call it the secret, or the law of attraction, or just good timing... my desire to move, prompted by my difficulty in seeing a future here in orange county, put into action by a perfect housing opportunity and some really supportive friends/family. [i expect all of you to be visiting me @ arkansas -- the house, not the state -- in the near future!]

on a side note, this summer has been an awesome one so far.

i've been fortunate to (despite and around my odd work schedule) squeeze in the things i love -- beach days, lazy afternoons, close friends, sunshine, roommates, fat-people-food, making lists, planning adventures, and my superduper boyfriend justin.leu :)

[things are gonna be great]
