i'd move 1,000 times to get a step closer to you.

-

so, WE'RE MOVING! still within the confines of albany, but... moving nonetheless. the specs of the new digs is 3 bedrooms, hardwood floors, a balcony patio and a fireplace in my ROOM. some of the best parts? i get an office! (although, i and p keep calling it my craft room. apparently we'll be running a basket weaving shop right from the comfort of our home.) there are three or so more exciting aspects of the move. 
1. we get to move in with our good friend peter. pete's great. he loves fresh foods, is quick witted and i get to add another person to the "morning person" team. 

2. WE GET TO GET A DOG. it's such a dream to actually find a NICE place that will actually allow us to own a dog. i didn't think such a place existed in Albany. 

3. it's in a really nice neighborhood. it's down by a different part of downtown Albany that opens up so many more local places for us to frequent. you can expect for instagrams from places like mcgeary's, the victory cafe and the palace for sure.

  i've got a blog. i had one of these in highschool. i lied. i had one even when i was in college, too. however, this time i've made one because it's easier than just writing. not to mention, i think i might actually use this more. its just easier really. besides, i'm about to leave a place i've known as home for 5 years, i have to have something to show for it. i'm convinced that the male and female species were not actually meant to compliment one another so much as complicate one another's lives. all my life, i've been told that you're supposed to be looking for someone that compliments you. Not in the way where some guy is constantly flattering you, but in a salt and pepper, banana and peanut butter kind of way. however, i don't know where it happened, but i always believed that complimentary things, such as red and green on the color spectrum wheel, while were completely different, always shared some sort of middle ground; i.e. they were dir

My Attempts at Adulthood

PUNC-TU-AL... wait, how does this work? After the first step, every other tip or tid-bit of information I've gathered since trying to make this big transformation has pretty much all muddled together. No one individual observation (rant) is really going to make all that much different on it's own. It's like a Monet painting, looking at it from far away, it's OK, but up close, it's a big old mess. (yes, I stole that from Clueless. And no, that's not very adult-ly admitting that.) So by-and-by, I give you the importance of timeliness and punctuality. This in it self was a weird concept for me in college. Not because I couldn't take care of myself and show up to things on time, I just didn't acknowledge some of the facts that I knew to be true. I'm not talking deep or profound facts. I'm talking like, logistically, there is no way that you can feasibly could get from one side of the campus to the next and still watch the end of this

Step 1 is Always Acknowledgment

-
I've learned that the first step of actually becoming an adult is actually admitting that it's inevitably happening. I'm not saying giving up on the that "kid at heart" type mentality of getting excited for the small things and believing in the impossible. While that is what Peter Pan, Hook, Wendy-Lady and Tink will lead you to believe, it's really just acknowledging that their are steps and benchmarks that you'll inevitably come across, or in my case stumble upon, that will do nothing but catapult you into the next stage of your life. How you decide to respond to them is what separates the floundering semi-professionals that still get too drunk at happy hour and talk too loudly about their boss's assistant and those that find themselves enjoying the ever changing twenty-somethings and commemorate them as a success. Prepared or not, it's coming and there's not a whole lot you can do to avoid it . So I've decided to embrace it. As a
