Progress

I am what one would call a Type A personality. This has served me well on many a term paper and gift wrap job, but less so in the adventure department. I'm one of those who is hesitant to try things out of fear of not being any good (okay...the best). I like things predictable and orderly, like As lined up on a transcript or shampoo bottles facing all the same way. I'm trying to pull away from this, because I realize that perhaps a stack of etiquette books has less value than a picture album filled with memories of wild nights out. I've bought a plane ticket to Europe where I plan to backpack through six countries (nevermind that it took me two months of anxiety to book the three week trip). I'm moving in the right direction, I think. On Saturday I woke up, drove to the pound, and picked out two cats. They are messy and unpredictable and all mine.

Please ignore the fact that I bought a matching set.

(P to the S, my bed is only unmade because of those hyper creatures! Just to clear my good name.)
