So tired, so inspired, but so tired!

I had an amazing night with some of my bestest -yes, I know that's not a real word, but to me it works...- friends on Friday! I cannot remember the last real slumber party I had with them, and it was amazing! So amazing in fact, not only were we up in to the wee hours of the morning, but we almost welcomed the morning into existence! It was a late night, or early morning I guess. At 4 am I finally called it quits and quickly washed the makeup off my face, took out my contacts and brushed my teeth!

From THE moment we arrived at around 7pm until after 4am was pure talking, pure conversation, pure soul searching and it was amazing! Warning: the use of the english word amazing, an abbreviated version of the word amazement, may be used extensively in this author's post for the day. First, it was just so incredible that we were all able to get together that evening, especially that now 3 out of the 5 have babies! And secondly, we had so much to celebrate with a new engagment, and new lives and we really seemed to rekindle the sparks that ignited our friendships in the beginning. We were so real with eachother again, so caring and of course, so goofy!

And oh my. Let's just say that a tape that had been hidden for the last 8 years got whipped out from a dusty box, one that we had hope had been forgotten about. We had not viewed this artifact since it's making...and let me tell you, a few of us may have peed a little in our pants. Just a little.

As the wine continued to be poured throughout the evening, we may or may not have facebooked our status, and ambushed one friend to FINALLY create her facebook account because you know, we still utilize the high schooler in us to use a little peer pressure. We also may or may not have ate a lot of puppy chow, like until 4 am. And there may or may not have been wine pouring in to ginormous wine goblets until 4 in the morning either. I wouldn't know...

So, anyway, even though I got roughly about 4 hours of sleep, and then got dropped off at my home around 10 am, just so I could get ready for waitressing at 11 am. Then worked until 9:15 pm; I got through the day, inspired, refreshed, renewed. Exhausted. Today I feel so tired, so inspired, but so tired! I keep going back and forth between them! I am so sleepy which can cause crabbiness in some, yep me, but then church was so inspiring today! So then I felt better. But then I went to Walmart, I know big mistake, and became uninspired. But I'm trying to shake that off, so that the rest of my day can be what I want it to be...AMAZING!

There are two kinds of people: Part Two - The non-movers

Coffee cup in one hand, veggie/fruit smoothie in the other. No seriously, that's what I have on each side of me as I write. I'm smiling because of how funny this is, as it seems to also relate to this conundrum of a topic before us. There are two kinds of people, and there are definitely two kinds of beverages.  My caffeinated beverage on my left brings me a one sided joy that I cannot even begin to detail. I love my coffee. And I really do think it loves me back. At least for a while. As I peer out of the corner of my eye to the right, I see the greenish grainy drink to my right. Today the fennel seeds in it do not make it seem as dirty  I mean, like I just gathered them from the dirt without rinsing and sprinkled them in there kind of dirty. Maybe it was the splash of OJ I decided to add to it this morning. Now, I know that this drink loves me. It is good for many aspects of my life. Health, energy, sustenance, power. But I do not enjoy it as much. When I make my ...

There are two kinds of people: Part One

This topic has been on my mind for quite a few years, and I always tell my ultra hip (yeah right) self, that I should write about it. So finally, after this last revelation that, yes, there are two kinds of people in this world, I needed to get it off my chest. There are two kinds of people in this world. "But Megan?" you quickly rebut, "No there's not! There are so many kinds of people in this world. Short people, tall people, loud people, introverted people, French people, people who like food, people who are allergic to grass, dog people, cat people, this list is endless." And to you I say, "Well of course." But  here's the deal. When it comes down to it. We are all, but one of two kinds of people. And I'll kindly, yet firmly, break it down for y'all. There are two kinds of people in this world. And you WILL fall under one of these categories. Are you ready? Here, I'll set the scene. You are walking down the sidewalk....

A picture, a moment.

My husband and I went to Mexico last February. This was our last night there. Or was it? We had not gone on a vacation in 10 years! This photo is unique and amazing in so many ways. I had gotten a new camera, and all vacation, I would mess around with new settings. What time of day was this? Looks like a sunset right? It's not! It was a sunrise! I  had some strange setting, that I have not been able to replicate. But it made this look like our last night there, but it was our last morning. I awoke early so I could be on the beach when the sun came up.If I could keep a memory that included sense of smell, feeling, sound, and sight, it would be this, wrapped with a bow. I was the only one out there in the early hours, which was amazing in and of itself. I took a lot of other shots by the water, and a little while later when I was heading back, I turned around, and took a shot off the upper patio of the resort. And this is what I got. It is my favorite picture...
