Finally gettin' around to it

New blog post: in progress. I'm sure my 2 followers are pleased as punch.

Last post was approximately 5 months ago...whoops. Lots has happened as anyone would assume.

Remember when I said I was really busy and frazzled over the summer? Well it turns out that can be a bad thing for too long (who knew, right?). In early August I suffered some health problems because of it, which will probably change my life in the next few years (Remembering to take medicine everyday, twice a day, is a hard thing to do!), but alas, I am alive and healthy and have now changed some habits to relieve the stress I was feeling this summer.

So far so good. No flare ups to speak of.

Spring Sing is coming along quite swimmingly. Lots to do still, but when January rolls around (actually, I'm lying to myself - its already been happening) I'll be busier with planning.

Did I mention how much I like planning things? I'm so weird.

Today, I got curious and looked up my birth order to see what it said about me. Being an only child I've always felt a little weird compared to those "sibling families..." - but I realized that my characteristics are very independent (duh.), organized (well, most of the time), sensitive/doesn't take criticism well (maybe true...) and gets along better with people older then themselves, rather than people their own age (this is very true. i hung out with my parent's friends a lot growing up. not to mention the whole "growing-up-in-a-divorced-household-thingy."

I was also described as being "small adult at age 7." Which made me laugh a lotttt. But I would probably agree with that. I wasn't doing my taxes or anything, but I could hold conversations with most adults and understand movies, TV and music beyond my years (not that I'm bragging or anything, just an observation).

It is very possible I will be marrying a "first born - aka the "natural born leader/achiever/list maker." Only children have been described as "super first borns" - pretty much anything a first born does put a VERY in front of it and you have a Susan.

The only real difference I see between first borns/only children is this: only child= sensitive, first born = sarcastic/assertive (opposite of me haha)

Which leads me to Taylor and I:

Ah yes, the boyfriend. It is said that we are not compatible as a couple. We will butt heads, get on each other's nerves, etc.

I want to prove we are and can be the exception. Though we may not be ready for marriage, yet, we know what we want and have a plan (how first born of us, right?) and want to do this right. I happen to have a very shining example of a first born couple that worked out and whose relationship I admire. It gives me hope.

Oh yeah, merry (late) christmas!
