I'M BORED

i am usually a pretty content person.
i dont really mind the situations i find myself in. i can usually make do with just about anything.
but every once in awhile i go through a weird phase.
i start getting bored and anxious and antsy.
it doesnt matter if i love where i am. i always start to feel like my life is too stagnant.
that's how i have been feeling.
last time i felt like that, i signed up for americorps and moved to wyoming.
the time before that, i moved out of my parent's house and into a house in GR.
before that, i went to a college i had never heard of all by myself.

i have flight issues.
i like to jump into things without looking first.
i think its because i am spontaneous.
or that i want to experience stuff first hand.
i dont like being told to do things.
my mom says im stubborn (thats her saying it nicely).
but right now i think the reason i always get anxious/antsy/bored is because i dont want to miss out on what i can get out of life.
this sounds a little preachy, but seriously. would you rather hear about how beautiful the teton mountains are, or see them for yourself?
i think i want to say that ive lived in some of the coolest places in the world and met some of the coolest people in it.

too bad im poor.
so this is my life plan, are you ready to hear it?? its a doozie.
im going to write a book (naturally it will be a best seller)
make millions (or just enough that i dont have to work for a couple years)
travel around the country/world
basically become a nomad.
i like this plan

New Year, Better Andrea

My name is Andrea and I am a struggling 32 (nearly 33) year old woman. I am not married, have no children, no pets, and no real responsibilities. Yet, I cannot for the life of me, get my act together. I have a decent job that barely covers my bills. I have an apartment downtown that I love, but struggle to keep clean. I eat whatever I want whenever I want, even though my body is begging me to stop. I never exercise.  I drink alcohol nearly every weekend, to excess. I am a statistic. I am like every other wandering millennial.  I want to do better, I want to be a better and more healthy version of myself. I'm not publishing this stuff. I'm not expecting anyone to ever read this actually. I just want to write it down and declare it to myself. ANDREA... BE BETTER. I want to give myself little goals. Not goals for the future, but goals for right now. So that I can see in a week, a month, or a year from now that I was able to be better. My goals for this week: Actually

Valentine's Day....because, February

I have really uninteresting opinions about this specific holiday. I like it and hate it all at once. It's very confusing. Valentine's Day pros: Chocolate everything. I'm not a huge chocolate person, but if you want to feed me chocolate covered raisins/peanut butter/strawberries/bread, I probably will put it in my mouth. It's on a Wednesday this year. Hump day. Beautiful. I get to buy cheesy valentines for my friends and family. It's not like I can find WWE related stationary at Walgreens all year round. I have to take advantage while I can.  Gives you a reason to get a skanky hotel room with a hot tub in it. Never did that, but it sounds awesome.  I like making a big deal about dumb stuff...especially if it gives me a reason to drink prosecco with frozen berries in it.  Valentine's Day cons: For some reason, I am convinced I will receive an enormous edible arrangement. This has yet to happen. I'm not sure I even want it to, but there you go.

an uncomfortable clothing choice

For some unknown reason, Jorts have been the topic of many conversations lately. Jorts = Jean shorts. [GUEST NOTE: "Jorts” – a combination of the words “jean” and “shorts” – are used to describe the somewhat hideous attire often sported by NASCAR aficionados, Green Bay Packer fans, men over 40, and men who probably ought to be over 40. If you wear jorts, you probably have minimal relationships with women. Sometimes jorts are accessorized with a lovely cellphone belt clip and a braided leather belt, but not always, as sometimes the jorts-wearer lets the jorts speak for themselves.] I think it's because of the White Trash Birthday Bash that I recently had. Not saying that only 'white trash' wear jorts . . . just a lot of people that attended the party had them on. [GUEST NOTE: I can count the number of acquaintances I know whom habitually wear jean shorts on one finger. Although, I’m fairly certain this summer will bring more to light. HINT: Missouri.] I don'
