Poodleism: Fill in the Blank Friday!

Fill in the Blank Friday!

Happy Friday all! Today I'm linking up with Lauren at The Little Things We do, for some good old fashioned writing about myself.

1. I am currently obsessed with edamame. I've been giving this campaign to get ~~skinny~~ healthy my best effort. So, one of the low-cal snacks I brainstormed was edamame! I found an amazing frozen steam-in-th-bag option at SuperTarget. All you do is steam that little puppy up, toss it in a bit of salt and voila! Super healthy! Even Manfriend chowed down on them. I can't wait to get more as soon as I can hit the grocery store again!

2. Today I am annoyed because, work is slow, my eyes are still itching like hellfire and I can't think about anything but the weekend on the horizon. Similar to trying to fall asleep, you can't think too much about the end of the day on Friday, or else you end up in a thought spiral that makes time go by even slower - or at least it does for me.

3. The age I am is 24 and the age I feel is 17. Sometimes I feel like I have no more direction, stability or wisdom than I did at that age. I get metaphorically "lost" in life all the time. Even when I do step back and realize that I pay my own bills, live alone and have a great big-girl job, I wonder, "who the hell do I think I am being all grown up and stuff." So, I feel 17. I wish I still fit into my 17 year-old jeans, though.

4. My favorite place is anywhere there is water and sun. I'm really not picky. It could be a river, lake, pool, pond, ocean - whatever. I love to lounge in or around water. There's one particular river place in West Texas, Junction, where the river is cool and the sun is bright. A sweet friend of mine has been so kind as to invite me to her family home there a couple times and I love it!. It's peaceful and perfect for tubing:

5. Something I have been procrastinating is cleaning out my apartment. I got started this weekend and purged my closet of clothes to donate. Unfortunately it was because the majority of them were too small. Womp Womp. But, I'm working on that. I have cabines/shelves/closets in dire need of a visit from the purge fairy. Maybe this weekend...but not if the weather is too nice. :)

6. The last thing I purchased was pizza and wine the other night with one of my best pals. Weeknight restaurant trips are a rare treat for me. So in the spirit of having a girly catch-up session with a dear friend, I threw diet and budget to the wind - worth it.

7. The thing I love most about my home is the Prince. he's always there to greet me with face kisses and a wagging tail. There's nothing that makes me feel more at home than the second when I open the door and he's there bouncing in joy. Wouldn't it be interesting if humans compulsively went beserk when their favorite people came into the room? That would be interesting.
