The Good, the Bad, the It Is What It Is
Sept 2009. In no order of importance, I give you:
Good
- Family. They love me. I love them. (thanks mum for the awesome letter that i received today).
- Friends. I really miss my good friends sometimes! And they are so far away. Marsha is about to have her baby. Michelle is about to present her first conference paper. Tiffany is married and madly in love. I am so proud of them. Awwww. And I miss meals with Sonja. And Guitar Hero with Matt. And everyone else, I loves ya all.
- New friends.
- Finally finishing Couch to 5K. (and still going!). Holy shit if I can do that I can pretty much do anything.
- Trying out a new work path and learning new things.
- Moving soon to a fab house in a fab neighbourhood.
- Getting my US drivers license.
- Dan. For putting up with the good, the bad, and the other.
Bad
- Being the hardass that I am, failing my driving test the first time. Humiliating. Parallel parking. Pffft.
- Reuben soon to be leaving the country (more for Dan’s sake really).
- Migraines. Yep, still get them.
- Eating too much.
- Drinking too much.
- Acting like a juvenile too much.
It Is What It Is
- American football. I may never like it. (or understand it. or respect it).
- Finally realising that I am unable to function properly in life if I don’t have constant change and work towards meaningful goals that I can cross off a list.
- Say Hello, Vanessa

Hello, so glad you’ve written a post
I’be been thinking about you and wondering how you are. I wish we could just meet up for a drink or something…. Will be great to see you in the US next eyar, yeah I know a whole year away, but it’s better than nothing. Am looking forward to the conference, a lot of hard work has gone into the organising of our Perth promotion, I’ve done a lot of stuff – but you know me, love that kind of thing. Would love to get into Events Management one day, but not sure I could ever change from a library career to that. Would be cool if I could do both
Have you seen my blog??

Don’t feel bad about not enjoying the NFL – the NBA is almost here. And the Rockets have an Australian player!
Beatles Rock Band is awesome. Stay cool dudes.
