Settling In

but needing a change...

Published on September 1, 2004 By crimson In Blogging

Maybe it's because I'm finally settling in that I feel this obvious need for change.

My job is going well; my stats are up and I finally passed the 3 month mark without getting canned. I'm making friends at work and I am pretty used to the hours and goings-on at work. I'm liking the pay and can make it from check to check without going completely broke. There's enough for extras, and my daughter is adjusting to my schedule and we are becoming closer and more adept at taking advantage of every free moment we can spend together.

So why do I want things to be different? Why do I feel that I need to do something wild and crazy and impromptu?

There's enough need for stability that I am not just going to up and quit my job, but I feel like:

getting my hair cut very short, from it's past-shoulder-length style

dyeing it vivid colors that are not naturally found on the human head.

getting a tattoo. (Little red heart with the words love me tender around it, right on my ass. hehehe)

travelling. Even to Toronto will do.

joining a class to learn something new. Anything new.

going rock climbing one afternoon. Or camping one weekend.

hanging out with some new friends at different places than I usually frequent.

I could actually continue listing changes in my life that might make me feel better. But rather than just writing about it, I might as well go out and make that change. In no particular order.
