I’m taking a break from the San Diego pictures because honestly, I cry a little each time I look at them. They have sun the majority of the time. We have clouds and right now, SNOW.
…My job is a little iffy right now. In reality, it will probably be ok. Hopefully, we won’t have to take a 5% paycut or whatever else the state is deciding on. Because 5% is more than I’ve gotten in cost of living raises in the past 3 years. I did a job search looking for jobs in my area and I came up with nothing in Michigan. Yeah. I really would hate to have to take a job I wasn’t going to advance in or learn. And talking about that, well, I know I can’t stay where I’m at forever. I get antsy and frankly, bored.
…Thank you to all my guest bloggers! When are we getting together for karaoke?! Maybe next month when everyone is back from their vacations?!
…Keeping with the honesty, aerial yoga was not stellar the past couple of weeks before my trip, but last Sunday? Awesome. I think it helps a lot the group of people you are with. I actually was in a group with Sillygrrl again 
I know I’ve said it before but the girl is GRACEFUL!
Right before I literally unrolled and fell out…classy
…I prefer the trapeze, there is something about being wrapped up in the fabric that freaks me out. It’s one of my goals is to get over that because hello, that’s kind of weird.
…My dad is going to be 60 this year! Jenni has offered to help me plan the party! Now I just have to save some money and get his friends numbers.
…I’ve been watching Team USA in hockey. Did you know Rafalski (Dearborn/Allen Park) and Kesler (Livonia) are both from the Detroit area?
…So I twittered yesterday about babies. I don’t coo over babies like I will over puppies or dogs in general. Don’t get me wrong I love my friends’ kids and the occasional child will make me say, “oh she/he is so cute” but I guess I’m just not there. Part of me feels bad about it, even though I know I shouldn’t.
Anything you’d like to share?

Don’t feel bad about that. Kids are an “acquired taste.” Esp. babies.
You look graceful, too! What’re you talking about? Gold lamé leggings in the background… Good for her rocking that out, but it looks … errrrr… questionable.

awww thanks! not sure what my arms are doing but the legs are lookin’ good. next set of classes i’m gonna try to rock the trap without fear and you can rock the fabric.
Good luck with the job thing – I sometimes find myself antsy – and possibly looking toward a summer layoff…
Re: babies – I tend to only like/coo at the ones I am related too (and even some of them don’t impress me to be quite honest). Haha! I think “acquired taste” is the perfect description!

@Melissa, thanks. a summer layoff might not be so bad
as long as you’d be able to go back.
acquired taste is definitely a good description!
Keep going and eventually you’ll be a master on the fabric rope!!! It all looks like so much fun!

@Walking on Sunshine, thanks for the confidence! i wish you lived closer so you could do it too
Yeah, the pictures of California have gotten me all down, as well. I can’t WAIT go get out of Michigan.
In other news, I have free weekends again the last weekend of March into April so far. Maybe we need to plan a get together!

@Chris, i hope everything works out for you too. it’s stressful when you don’t know what’s going to happen.
First of all – I really like this thought purge concept. I have so much on my mind right now that I should follow suit.
Secondly – as the days go by I keep getting more and more nervous for aerial yoga. I think I’m going to be a huge flop. And look stupid. And fall… a lot. Maybe I should drink before.
I’m sorry to hear about your job. Last year I took a few major paycuts. For the first time in all my life, I’ve made less than I had the previous year. It’s a scary world out here in Michigan. I’ve been looking for jobs hardcore and nothing is coming up (I’m either overqualified or get paid pennies). I just want to me happy… that’s not too much to ask, right?
And I’m still in for helping you plan to party for daddy. Maybe we could do a surprise one at his TKD studio? Just an idea. We will chat more about the logistics later
Hope you’re havinga beautiful day love <3 Lets get together for lunch/dinner one day soon… okay?
i always love seeing you and sillygrrl’s aerial yoga pictures! you guys are so cute.
