Things are in the works

Today was fan-fucking-tastic. Delicious food + Beach + Weed + tossing cherries out of the third floor of a building into my friends mouth on the other side of a fence while he is working= Priceless. There are some things money can't buy. But for all the delicious food, my pocket definately paid a price. It's just hard to not spend money now because I know I HAVE A JOB (Insert celebration dance here). I can't write shit in bold anymore without fucking up the font so capitals will have to substitute. So I think I made an ass of myself like 3 times today. Once in front of a cop, once on someones voice mail, and once when a friend caught me in a lie but I was able to quickly cover up for it. Oops. I have got to stop lying so much. Bad Christian! Anyway, the Twin Cities Aquentennial is tomorrow and I hope to go to it either with my friend Peter or B or whoever really, or myself I guess. If you've read my blog you know I am a sucker for city get-togethers. I can't wait to go to my sisters cabin because of the street dance. Let's see.... (Holy Shit it just started pouring rain out of nowhere) I know I said I would make a new extended to do list so I am gonna go ahead and do that right now. I am going to incorporate some of my old list and put stars by the new items. First though, I need to give props to the person who gave me this idea 5 years ago. It was some girl who wrote her extended to do list on the wall of the art building. It was so fucking personal and it was the first time I understood what it really meant to go public with personal art work. So here it goes, the closest thing to public that I am going to get.

That's all I've got for that for the time being. I have a feeling that the first bits of my blog will be stuff like this. Stuff that I need to get out onto this blog in order to hold myself accountable. That's another thing I noticed that I find different between having my journal and my blog. When I write in here, I am more likely to stick to my guns because someone out there could possibly read it. Just imagine how good of a person I would be if I actually told this shit to people. To their face. WOW. Hey You. You should make one of these, these extended to do lists. I have a few things I haven't put on here because they are too personal. But you should write one down. You would be surprised at what comes up as important to you. But I will give you some advice. Don't stick to just things you dream of or just practicalities. Think of things you really want to get done weather they are dreams or something that you will probably get done within the next few months. I am shocked to look at all the things I crossed off of my old list. And we all know, even those of us who are unorganized, that nothing feels better than being able to check something off your list.
