SeaTac

Okay, so it's not as scary as I thought, I mean don't get me wrong, I'm scared shitless, but I only kind of cried when Riley dropped me off at the shuttle, and I haven't vomited or passed out. So according to me, I'm doing quite well.

I'm here extremely early, I still have an hour and 25 minutes before my flight leaves. My flight *gulp* okay, now I think I'm going to throw up. How did I get roped into this? Two months ago this seemed like a great idea, because well, two months ago this was two months away and I didn't need to worry about it. Now look at me. I'd be lost without this free wifi access. Without it I'd hardly have myself to talk to.

No one is on Facebook to chat with at 5:41 in the morning. I can't imagine why. Weird.

I don't even know my flight number, I'm a terrible flyer. =( I know it's somewhere on my ticket, but all I see when I look at my ticket is "blah blah blah blah, you might die, blah blah blah 7:05". I don't like this whole alone thing. I want Riley. I want him to rub my knee and scratch my back and ask me if I want something to eat, and go get a coffee with me. He's probably sleeping like a log right now, don't blame him. Lucky dog, I mean log.

I am going to go get coffee. Wish me luck on this trip and I shall be back eventually.

Sorry

So um... Yeah, I'm pretty sure that idea crashed and burned. Now it's time to start writing stories again.

My very lovely friend sat me down and said something to me I haven't heard since high school. She said something that touched me (not inappropriately, sadly). She said she thought I was a good writer.

It's been so long since someone said that. So long since someone had faith in my abilities to tell stories, or create worlds. Something, once upon a time, I had loved to do, but since forgot that I did.

I still have great plans to write a screen play about working at a bank. No I will not disclose any name, procedures, or personal information, but there is some funny shit that happens there that I just cannot let go without sharing with the world.

There are days when that phone rings and I answer it and I wish I were on film and that conversation were recorded because it is too priceless to ever be forgotten.

I cannot wait until the day I sit down and learn to write a screen play. It's going to awesome.

Day 6


So, what today you might ask, I set up an exercise plan with the lovely Kim where we'll be walking 3 to 4 times a week early early in the morning. I have set up plans like this in the past, but this one is different because Kim is doing it with me and my plan is to help her while helping myself. I think it'll be great for the both of us in the long run we just need to use each other to make it the most positive experience so that we'll hopefully continue to do so.

I'm making us each a chart where we'll weigh ourselves once a week and keep track of our weight and our goals and help support each other along the way.

This is also a great outlet for Cabo. Help him be active in the morning so he's not so miserable all day when he's stuck at home without us. Poor baby.

I think this will be a great experience even if we don't fully succeed at least we tried. That's half the battle no?

Day 5


Damn it! I forgot to do this yesterday. Okay I'm a day behind I'll make that up later.

So what'd I do today that I've never done before? Well it's not something I've had planned and it's an obvious fill in/attempt to write something so I'm not two days behind. But I'd never sat down and talked to my friend's friends about wedding planning and whatnot. That's about the best I can do tonight.

Night night my friends! Sorry I'm lame.

Day 3



Today was a mostly good day, consisting of multiple things I've never done before.

I think the most important and the most memorable being my first every photo shoot involving men in drag. It was quite beautiful. The setting was a park at sundown, the air was crisp, the mosquitoes were biting. Everyone looked so lovely.

Up until I got pulled over for having 5 month expired tabs, life was going extremely well.

I have to say though, that group of friends are one of the best groups of people I've ever known. There are some very amazing people who weren't there today, but for all those that were, you're amazing, you're spectacular, you're some of the best things that have ever happened to me. I'm glad you guys happened to me. Thanks for happening to me. Epic win today my friends, epic win.

Day 2

Today I tried to use a shovel to uproot those nasty weeds from my new found land. I failed for the most part, but I'm working on it. So that is one thing I have never done before. I have also never drank a bottle and a half of wine with Dazzle and Haley and *zinged* Dazzle's ex via snail mail. So I guess today was a x2 day for things I haven't done.

x3 actually is you count listening to Michael Jackson with Mickey whilst Dazzle finishes slashing her stupid ass ex via snail mail. Whilst still being tipsy. I apology for any incorrect spellings/grammar in this blog as well.

I also did 4 loads of laundry today, but that's like a bimonthly event for me so really has no place in this blog.

Today I have no pictures but suffice to say that it was not as much of a win as yesterday was.

Also I will be checking my xanga today, which hasn't been done in... too long. Let's see how cool I used to be!

365 Days of Sarah

I'm starting something as of today, and hear me out, this is awesome. My plan is this, I will do something I've never done before every day for 365 days and document it in this blog.

Who knows, I may do nothing of the sort and never blog again after a week, but I'm going to try. This is all because I've decided I don't learn enough, I don't experience enough, and I need to do more. The epiphany hit me when about a week ago I had my first fig, 2 weeks ago I used a real lawnmower for the first time. I mean seriously, I'm 23 and those experiences should have happened years ago. So here I am, bring on the experience.

I want help, I want ideas (within reason) things I can do that I've never done before in a normal day. Things like change the oil in my car, or build/fix a fence, or karaoke, or even have sex in a car.

Help me think of idea, from something as little as trying a new fruit, to flying by myself to North Dakota (which is actually on my list for August 31st).

Day 1

Today I used a weed waker for the first, I spent around two hours chopping the weeds by my walkway and I'm pretty sure I served them their ass on a platter. Here's my proof.

Before Sarah:


During Sarah:

After Sarah:

This is a big, I WIN!

Tomorrow who knows what I'll do that I've never done before. Watch a movie based on a Kurt Vonnegut Jr. novel? Maybe. Try a sake bomb? Maybe. Eat squid. Hopefully not, but maybe. We shall see. Wish me luck.
