so its been a few days...

but its better than five months. right? right.
okay, so the question is
"Where would i like to be in 10 years?"
I have been thinking about how i was going to answer this. which is most likely the reason i have been avoiding it over the last 3 days. not for any negative reasons, i think i have just never thought about it.
so lets see, without putting any forethought into this...
i will be 32. i cant really even imagine being 23, let alone 32.
well i hope to be married, maybe have a child or two. hopefully be along in an adoption process. i would like to have my own established career, whether cooking or photography. either or will suit me fine. im not picky. id like a couple cats with a big ol' english sheepdog with a fluffy tail, with a blossoming excitement for life and travel and new adventures. i never want to be ashamed of my age or my hair color. i want to experience every part of the world but keep my roots grounded. i want a happy husband who is proud of his wife, and the life he has built with me. i want a cute homemade house with a compost in the yard and a secret garden out back. but mainly, out of everything i could want, or do or know or have, i just want to live. i want to live and be and live. and experience life with the people i love. whether im 32, 42 or 90.
i dont know if thats a good enough answer. and im sure that i could say a million more things regarding this "question."but hey. its good for now..i suppose.

and for tomorrow...well i dont want to say "tomorrow" because im not making any promises, but the next "question" is
"what are your views on drugs and alcohol?"
this post will probably be short and sweet..probably.

i get the urge to revive my dead blog career at midnight, especially when i have international cuisine in the morning @8am, but its happening. well, i dont want to put on a lot of pressure so instead of a revival i will call this a casket viewing, if you will.
Anyway. theres been a whole bunch of stuff happening in my life lately and in my brain, and some of those things pertain to this here blog. i often feel like i would like to write more frequently but always think i have nothing important to say, which is mostly true. i know i will never tell you anything you dont already know, or have an idea that you havent already had, so whats the point? how does it go?...something like..."There's nothing you can know that isin't known. nothing you can see that isin't shown." RIGHT? right. but i think what i might be saying is "oh well." i will continue to poorly pursue writing a blog that could maybe, one day, have some readers..so i guess the thing to say would be "deal with it."(or just dont read it...ha.)
now that THATS ^ out of the way. i can continue. i have been thinking of making a few changes to this blog in addition to actually using it. so hopefully in the next few days/weeks things around here will start looking a little different and maybe reflect a little bit of who i am. although, it kinda already does...
so i was thinking about filling out this survey thing to kinda get the "ball rolling" in some direction, because right now, this blog is at the least, non-existent. okay. so. on tumblr there is this 30 day survey floating around. three people i follow, (out of the 17 people) had posted this, so i thought "why not?" plus its an excuse to at least write on here everyday for 30 days...haha..we will see.(plus it will give me something to do while Haley is in Ft. Lauderdale, at least for the week.) BUT i decided not to post the whole thing( all 30 questions/share information commands) on here. (what a spoiler!) so i decided instead, i would answer the first question and then say what the next days question is...just to keep you guessing...although...like i said, its all over tumblr.

SO HERE WE ARE!
DAY ONE!
question #1. Your current relationship. If single, discuss how single life is.

answer: my current relationship, which is now coming up on its 7th year, yeah thats right, 7! is just fine! Im assuming if your reading this, you know me, but just in case, maybe, i will dig a little deeper. I was 15, He (Haley) (yes, thats a girls name, we know, trust me.) was 16, we were sophomores in high school, he used to write me notes and draw me pictures, sit with me at lunch and talk to me on AIM (thats right AIM, with the buddy icons and 150 word limit profile, whatchu know 'bout that?!) and we fell in love. simple. we live together in music city, USA and we live right next door to where i grew up, where my sister and father currently still reside. i am an art student, and he is a techy,game nerd, artist person. AND WE ARE IN LOVE AND HAPPY! don't hurt yourself, just know, it happens. not that i want to portray us as a "happy, bubbly, everything is perfect, we are obsessed with each other" kinda couple, because its not like that. everyone has their issues, including us, but we figure it out together, which has seemed to be a successful conflict solver, at least so far.

is that enough for one night? i think it might be.

any questions? let me know..i guess.

Tomorrows question is:

Where would you like to be in ten years?

(oh, cant wait!)
