Beautiful Mess

Last night Riley and I went to dinner at this little Italian restaurant in San Francisco. He had a pizza and I had eggplant pasta...yum! Before our dinner came the waiter brought the traditional bread, oil, and vinegar. After helping ourselves I looked down at our plates. "Look!" I said, "Our plates are a reflection of the differences between us. Your oil and vinegar is refined and neat, and mine...mine is a beautiful mess!" Mine was spread all over my plate with a few drops on the rim, whereas Riley's oil was in two neat circles with a small amount of vinegar right in the middle. Riley laughed saying, "That is the perfect description of you. That is what you should call your blog...A Beautiful Mess." Perhaps I will.

Happy New Year

So...in addition to being a perpetual planner, I am also a perpetual procrastinator. I plan and then procrastinate and plan then procrastinate and the cycle goes on and on. This is why I have not posted anything in a few months even though I was so sure that I would. C'est la vie! Today is another day and, in fact, another year! I made some New Years resolutions and I hope to make some positive progress in my life this year...but I hope I have fun doing it. One thing I really slacked off on last year was documenting my life. I looked back at my photos and I have barely any. This is in part because I was bogged down with school and work for a good majority of the year, but that is no excuse! This year I want to take more pictures and save up for a nice camera, and hopefully post on here for all to see. Here is one of my favorites from last year to start.
