I know you all are looking for reasons why this is a wonderful day and I has it for yous! Now despite the fact that I just got really yelled at on the phone, I have mutiple reasons today is awesome.
First of all, worry not! I am listening to some soothing music on this short break from work so I can take a deep breath and not yell at yall. But it keeps stopping becuase its taking so long to load! AHHH!
Secondly, a few days ago, I finally got up the guts to email a blogger that I find to be one of the best. I look up to her. There have been many writers Ive wanted to write to, but she is the first I have had the courage to express my feelings to. For some reason, I simply knew she would respond. And she did. Today not only did she send me an email encouraging my blog, but she also sent me some tips on how to not only make it better but to geer my writing to an audience slightly bigger then my friends and family. Heh.
There was another reason today is awesome and I forgot... Oh! I am going to be going out to dinner with some friends and I am excited! Also, its friday! Whooo! Awesome day.
And the biggest reason that I think I forgot until now, we, my friends, are standing on the cusp on 200 hits! 200 times someone has come to my website to read something that Ive written. Thats exciting.
I am going to be working on ways to use Jen's advice in my work here soon. Now... Im a little torn on how to go about it. Im trying to decide on making new categories under this blog or if I should make a whole new blog for some of my ideas. So this can be for my writing and for people that know me to come read about my life while the other can be about the random things I find on the internet and making them entertaining.
The more I think on it, the more I like the idea of keeping everything under this one and just having different things on different days. So we will try to branch out.
As a final thought, I wanted to share this with you guys. I know I am big on reaching my goals and working towards them every day, but I think I realized something on wednesday... I think working hard towards goals is awesome, but I also think that if thats what we focus on, then maybe we miss the most important part of our journeys which is the acutal journey itself. Cliche yes, but seriously. I have been checking things off so many lists that I forgot how nice the summer rain is. Or how good it is to sit back and just laugh with someone. Maybe, this should be something else we put on our lists?
