Il Pleut Bleu en Jeudi

First of all, naming this thing is stressful. How am i supposed to know what to call my blog before i even start writing? It's like a newborn baby, we don't know each other yet, i have no idea what it's personality will be, what it will talk about, and especially not what name it will respond to. And on top of that stress there's the issue of the domain name, which of course has to correspond. Man, that was an ordeal.. After repeatedly settling on names that i deemed deep but light, meaningful but casual, personal but mysterious, only to find that someone had previously enjoyed the ring of the same phrase enough to allow it to umbrella everything they will have to say for the life of their blog and feeling decidedly unoriginal, i flung into the heading a random little french phrase that has been occupying precious memory space in my brain since 7th grade- Il pleut bleu en jeudi- which of course means 'it rains blue on thursday'. (thank you run-on sentence) Anyway, I took off the 'thursday' and now have a probably somewhat dreary little title that may perhaps inaccurately portrays me and this blog but that's fine because my mom told me that it's what's inside that counts and to never judge a blog by its title. I really just wanted to start a blog because i sit here at work all day with NOTHING to do except answering the phone when it rings about once every 30 minutes- "Good morning, how may i help you? ... Can i tell her who's calling? ... One moment." and done. That and, well, damnit i have things to say!
So shall we let the saying begin? alright then.

I had a dream last night that I was getting breast implants and then i was pregnant (apparently, subconsciously, i think those go hand-in-hand..) and then someone killed a shark. It was actually a pretty thrilling night last night in my brain. Perhaps the fact that i have yet to get the gas turned on in my new apartment and therefore am toughing out the temperature drop (which I am otherwise thrilled about) is having something to do with it. I don't know much about this kind of thing but i'm thinking something to do with circulation? bloodflow? to the brain? =whacked out dreams? i don't know..

I just wanna say a quick thank you to blogspot for continually saving this draft. I really appreciate that. I am now positive that i've chosen the correct venue to display my thoughts. It's the little things, you know?

Ok well, before i bring Entry #1 to a close, I'd like to outline a few things that you ("you"?) can expect to read about in upcoming blogs and also express my excitement for this anticipated relationship (even if only anticipated by the author).

(wow, i'm a dork.. please don't take me seriously.. unless i say "seriously.." then, i'm being serious. unless of course it's in a context that is obviously not serious. you will be trusted to use your discretion)

1. My broke-ness and my many creative but rarely implemented plans to lasso my financial situation
2. My new apartment that I am sharing with my sister and my overly ambitious decorating ideas (which include my crafting nearly half of the furniture- wha?)
3. My decorating ideas for other people (friends and "clients", yes that's right, I have a decorating business)
4. My music- I'm starting a new project with my sister- so sqaure one= writing, writing, writing! and naming ourselves (input?), perfecting the live show and then, taking the world by storm.
5. My family family and my friend family.. so many people to love.
6. God- our "wrestling"
7. Ideas and more ideas, plans and more plans- I am my father's daughter
8. Art, fashion, inspiration, expression, poems, books, music, life!
9. And maybe I'll even (reluctantly) say a word or two about romance. (*sigh*/gag me)

So that's what you have to look forward to.
I'll leave you with this: I bought some apples from an apple orchard yesterday and i am eating one of them right now with peanut butter but i'd kinda rather just be taking to the PB jar with a spoon.
