Skipped a day :-/
I have been so "out-of-it" since my fiance brought home a kitten on Friday. Since we already have a year old cat we've been having to monitor it's behaviour with the kitten and ensuring they get along. The first couple nights we placed our older cat in the living room and closed our bedroom door. In our room was the kitten. All night long it would meow and bother me. Friday and Saturday night I would get up in the middle of the night and go sleep on the couch with my older cat. Sunday night my fiance decided to leave me in the bedroom with the kitten (who now climbs onto the bed) while he slept on the couch. We now leave the bedroom door open, hoping the kitten would lay with the cat, but no. Last night it kept walking across me and licking my face and meowing each time it would use the litter box (currently stationed in our room so that the older cat doesn't use it instead of her own). I would freak when my fiance would roll around because I thought he'd lay on the cat. I smacked his arm a few times throughout the night.
My mind hasn't thought about what cute things I could find on etsy, where I want to be in life, funny happenings of the day, or a random quote. Instead I think about coffee and pajamas. Yesterday I had to work at 6:30am, and today at 7:30am...which is my normal shift. I'm about ready to pass out at my laptop right now. I just hope I can feel more refreshed tomorrow and have something fun to write. Til then, good night

genius wedding entrance
I first saw this on A Cup of Jo then again on Naturally Nina and had to repost it. If I was going to have a big wedding I'd love to do something like this, since you only get one chance (hopefully). My fiance laughed when he watched it and I laughed and cried. I can cry over the silliest things!
On a wedding note I called the place I would like to have my wedding and unfortunately got the voicemail. I can only call Tuesday or Thursday and between 3pm and 5pm. I hope she will be able to return my call soon since I plan for the wedding to be mid-November of this year! If not, back to the drawing board. And when wedding planning, going back to the drawing board isn't always the greatest of things.

Perfect date movie
As if any movie Michael Cera is in isn't already a date movie this is just the creme de la creme of them all. I am beyond excited to see it and my fiance says "Yeah...sure" when I asked if he wants to see it. He is going no matter what. Just watching the trailer makes me fall in love with my fiance all over again

Our talents...
Have you ever wondered what you are meant to be? I have been thinking about this a lot lately. It is part of the reason I am taking so long to get through college. My career paths have been education, interior design, education again, sociology, entrepreneurship...I just can't seem to figure out what I'm meant to be, who I'm meant to be. I know I am very good with analyzing, and teaching preschool, helping others with their problems, organizing...basically a mixture of all the career paths I have thought about doing. Personally, I'd love to be a stay at home mom and do the PTA thing while my fiance "brings home the bacon" but I know that in this society it's getting really hard to have one person be the back-bone of the household. So how do I discover what I want to be? I know I don't want to teach forever since I am not comfortable being held accountable for the knowledge my students gain. I don't have the social skills to go out and market my business. I do not like the thought of sitting at a desk and listening to people's problems all day when I don't know them personally to truly help. I don't want to learn business codes and drafting.
I read somewhere that one can make money being a professional organizer. That would be fun but I would feel super awkward going through other people's junk and possibly trashing important things.
Anyone else have this issue? Those of you who are in a career they absolutely love, how did you know it's what you were meant to do? How did you begin?

Loving some of these rooms!
I would photograph my place but it's pretty much separated as 1/2 living room and kitchen, 3/4 bedroom and 1/4 bathroom. The only designing my fiance and I have is photographs he has taken. One day I'll live in a place that my crdeative juices will flow.

Random thought
I am contemplating getting this hair cut. I have naturally wavy hair (and lots of it!) Plus a round face. I have cut my hair short before but was a little chunkier last time I did. Watching Public Enemies last night, I have been in love with Marion Cotillard's hair cut. So, as long as I continue to curl it (and probably color it) I could possibly pull it off. What do you think?
