The Goddess
 Okay, I'm not really a goddess. I'm just a 20 year old college student and a bright blue dot in a red state. I'm currently trying to find ways to live greener and generally decrease my impact on the planet, and that's what this blog is all about. And maybe just a little bit of humor.

I'll run in the rain 'til I'm breathless.I went for a drive about an hour ago. I was a bit nervous, since I haven't been behind the wheel of a car in a long time. My nervousness wasn't exactly helped by the sudden summer thunderstorm. But then Led Zeppelin's "Fool in the Rain" came on the radio. Oh, the irony. But seriously, the song really calmed me down. Rain generally makes me very unhappy. It's something I need to work on. I feel like a hypocrite to claim an "earth-based" religion and then get so depressed by the weather.I haven't taken my birth control for four days. In that amount of time, I've lost the same two pounds that I've been trying to lose for three weeks. My diet has been exactly the same, and I've even exercised less. This can't be a coincidence. I'm definitely not getting my prescription filled next month, and the month after that I'll demand my gyno give me a different type of BCP. Looks like I forgot to add to my 101 things list yesterday. Here's a bunch of additions to the list to make up for my forgetfullness. 34. Be less mean and insulting to my boyfriend. 35. Keep my dorm room and car clean. (or at least not messy) 36. Attend all of my classes regularly -- even the early ones. 37. Try to use less plastic bags and reuse the ones I get. 38. Vote in every election. 39. Try to get back in touch with my friend Maggie. 40. Get more comfortable driving my car (which gets very, very good gas mileage). 41. See if there are any plants I can grow in my dorm. 42. Do a lot of research into presidential candidates before choosing one. 43. Go on a road trip with the boyfriend. 44. Go ghost hunting. 45. Organize all the files on my computer, especially the music and pictures. 46. Hike at least three trails in the Smokie Mountains. 47. Visit one of those "mine your gems" tourist traps. 48. Make a bunch of mix cds for driving. 49. Finish all of the quilt patches I've started for my tacky 70's flower quilt. 50. Carry my camera with me at all times. 51. Enter the creative writing contest at my college. 52. Visit every Ren Fairre I can possibly visit. 53. Lower my Real Age score by five years. 54. Clean up my geneology research so that I can give it to my mom. 55. Drink a cup of tea at least every other day. Labels: 101 things, driving, rain, weight  |
