Change in Life Plans

Sorry I haven't been keeping my blog up to date. Life just been a little stressful and I seem to become some kind of hermit crab when that happens. I've come to lots of conclusions in my life. First of all I've realized that I've become extremely bored with my life. Last time this happened I moved to New Orleans so maybe I'm looking to move or maybe I'm looking for a major change in my life. One of the things that is creating all this boredom is my job. I work with people who are great but we have nothing in common. Most of them might be closet racist and super conservative which doesn't make for great conversations. I'm just craving some intellectual stimulation. Being bored makes me unhappy and depressed. It's gotten to the point where I don't even want to go shopping. All of you know how much I love that. Anyway I've decided to start studying for my LSAT and apply to a couple of law schools. Don't know if I will make it for Spring application due dates but I'm going to try. I applied back in the day but had no luck. Maybe I'm ready this time and I might get into Tulane or UT law school. Who knows.

Another change in my life is not caring so much about things. A friend of mine, an ex, told me that I was uptight. I guess in a way I probably am. I let things bother me and my feelings aways get hurt. He says I think people are perfect and that always leads to major disappointment. I have always expected people to do what I want them to do and when they don't it's so frustrating for me. I'm extremely judgemental and to a point a bit of a snob. I guess I fancy myself this wonderful person with no faults yet like most people I'm sure I have a couple I don't like to admit to. I need to learn to be more accepting of people's faults even if it goes against everything I believe in. Each person must have at least one redeeming quality. Have to remember that when I get worked up.

I've decided to do what I want to do and make myself happy. Work on staying in shape, decorating my house to my taste, making some money so I can go back to school, traveling more, reading more books, learning to sew, spending time with my family and friends, staying in touch with family and friends even the ones that drive me crazy. I'm turning 38 on Thursday and I need to turn a new leaf in my life. I need to be happy.
