SO LONG 2012

Although I haven't posted anything in awhile, I haven't posted anything in awhile, I did not give up on this blog. It's just that all I do is work, hang with the *boy* and sleep...and I don't think that's rich material to draw from to write about. 

However, as people are wont to do, the impending end of one year, and the beginning of a new one typically causes one to reflect. And while my laundry is drying I am doing just that. Funny thing is, a year and a half ago I was also waiting for my laundry to dry, when I created a profile on OK Cupid. 

After several futile dates, I found T. It fucking blows my mind that we are still together, even if our status is constantly in limbo. In fact, after we decided months ago that we are "not boyfriends", then realized that since we are:

A: Not sleeping with other people.
B: Sleep with each other. 
C: Provide mutual emotional support and intellectual stimulation. 
D. Just kicking it.

I am incredibly lucky to have several close friends, and over this last year in particular, he became my new "best" friend. His friendship has been both a cause and a solution to many a difficult time this year, but ultimately has proved solid, fruitful even. So there's that. 

WORK = THANK GOD

Though I bitch and moan about my back hurting, annoying customers, late hours and such, I have a job that many people that do what I do, would or should envy. It's hard as hell sometimes; my body is constantly sore, I rarely see much of sunlight, but I make decent $ and enjoy + respect my co-workers.

Side note: It's rare that a shift goes by when someone I know randomly shows up at my job. It's a fun ancillary benefit. Even better is being able to walk to/from work. Free food and beer doesn't hurt either! But most importantly are the new friends I have gained from this job. 

Rather than ramble on and on about the minutiae of this year, or where my life is now, I will leave you, dear reader with this; it's been a FUCKING rough year in many ways, but also AWESOME in many more ways and...

I am blessed. I am happy

I hope you are too. 

Let's crush 2013!

Happy new year to you as well from Hamburg, Germany. And do write more again - even if it's only about drying laundry and sleeping. Long to hear from my favorite US city, Chicago.

I am blessed and happy too.
There is really that someone who makes us feel that both. I believe, God sent them for us to feel how much he loves us.
