The act, not the subject in The Best Coast Life

My hair is at that strange awkward stage where the back is a bit too long, but not long enough to straighten it all the way. Sorta shaggy, sorta short, but not really. It's all sorta strange and bizarre.

I wanted to spend some time talking about an oath I wanted to write to myself. But I woke up this morning feeling achy and sore. It may just be because my period just ended or that I lifted boxes yesterday and didn't totally bend at the knee. And the skies are grey and foggy, as is frisco weather during the summer, and the bleakness of it makes it for a slow and sluggish morning. I'm realizing though, that despite me having ideas and plans to write about certain topics on occasion, it's more important the actual act of writing than what I'm writing about.

Sometimes it's more about the act than the subject. I just got an update on some of my job prospects. The chocolate gig gave me the part-time job, and I still got that internship with 826. All very exciting. Yep. And I got that strange gig with Rachel Remen and doing her filing. I can't complain, at least it's an income of sorts. I should be grateful, but I'm usually not that easily satisfied. I was offered an interview with NestGSV as a receptionist on Thursday! Despite the potential low salary, it's a steady income, no weekends, no nights, and is in the same building as my boyfriend! We can carpool! So, fingers crossed. I always thought I wanted something fun and spontaneous, but I really want something steady. Income and finances, money in the bank.

But in the meantime I'll watch lots of Law and Order, put in my time, and keep on keeping on for something that benefits me in more ways than one.

Also, I've been in frisco for 1 month and 12 days. A lot has happened thus far. And my confidence is booming, some days more than others. I'm awesome. I'm beautiful. I'm smart.

Let's get me a full-time big girl job!
