Wonderful fantastic David sent me an invite to iminlikewithyou.com. It’s actually quite different from any other networking site I’ve been a part of. The camtoys are great boredom busters and all the games are a little bit confusing but worth it. Once I get some invites (not sure how you earn them, only time will tell) I’ll post it to you and hand em out. For now here’s my link: http://iminlikewithyou.com/profile/detail/Joodie I will add it to the links list on the right, but go visit and if you have a profile send me a message or be a contact. 
This weekend has been absolutly fantastic weather wise here (Wisconsin). We had 70′s and 80′s with a nice breeze. Soooo perfect. Saturday night my mom and I built a fire in our fire pit and just sat outside enjoying the weather. I roasted marshmallows. (Opps, probably not part of my diet.) Haha, but it was gorgeous. Today I went out to Port Washington and walked along Lake Michigan. I dipped my feet in but the water was still absolutely freezing from winter. I guess it takes a while to warm up all that frozen water. I haven’t been to Lake Michigan (a beach anyways) since I was very small and it’s sad to see that they’ve posted Water Hazard signs everywhere. They warn beach-goers that there is a large amount of pollution and the possibility of E.Coli exsists if ingested. I found that disgusting. Just the sheer amount of pollution we put into those lakes and the level of damage it has caused. The lakes used to be a great place for bringing kids and spending a summer day… It’s so pathetic that we’ve brought this onto ourselves.
Tomorrow is another school day. I still haven’t decided if I’m going back. I know how much my mother wants me to go and how much she wants me to get my diploma, but nothing else in my life has ever made me so unhappy. Everyday I go there I’m reminded of how alone I am. It’s depressing and awful. On the weekends I’m just so happy and relaxed. Because school causes so much anxiety for me it takes the entire night just to wind down from it. It’s draining. I just don’t want to put myself through it no matter how much it will pay off. It’s just not fair and I’m just stuck trying to decide what’s most important to me. My wellbeing or a successful future?
Enjoy? Let's get cozy over coffee.

This is very cool. Very creative. Very unique and a very immediate form of art. I love this.

Oh gosh how I have missed purposeless blogging. I’m back and with a fury. I was surfing through all of my old favorite blog girlies and to my dismay, (but not shock), almost 90% of the sites were down, haitus or incredibly out of date. It’s sad I think. But it’s not a surprise with all of these social networking sites out now. It seems as though you can have 10+ blogs running at the same time. It’s definatly a pain in the ass to have to update allll of them with original, witty, and interesting text. Well, I’ve decided to stick this little bump out and continue with my blog. I’ve had some sort of website for blogging purposes since I was, oh, 13 or 14. I just can’t be without it. I can’t say it’s as exiciting as it used to be. But I’m going to try to find some true hearted blogging people out there that are still interested in this slightly *cough* nerdy obssession. Hell it’s a great way to meet people.
I’ve also decided that keeping up appearances is not worth it. Nobody wants to read a blog about my average, run of the mill day. In the blogs I read the main component missing is honesty. And in the few blogs I enjoy and frequent, there is no lack of honesty, drama, tears, love and pain. So here I am, no holding back. This time, you’re getting the real deal. I’m going to comment back everyone who comments me and I’m going to scour what’s left of the cam sites for interesting reads/blogs/girls/boys and forward them on to you. Because I know everyone out there has a story and I don’t think anything really beats a blog in telling that story. It’s personal. It’s honest. There is no biased/slanted storytelling. It’s entertaining. It’s drama. It’s interesting. And of course, for all of us bloggers… it’s fun as hell.
Where I’ve been and what have I been doing? The majority of my time has been spent in school or in therapy. I got fired from my job in January and since then my life has become incredibly dull and lonely. Most days I skip school and use my time creating art, watching fantastic films or reading books. It’s not healthy. It’s destructive. Yet…I don’t mind. I filled out an application to work at the local Jo-ann’s, although I haven’t turned it in yet. While a large portion inside me has enjoyed not having a job for awhile my pocketbook is quite literally suffering. And it’s a bitch. So I’m going to suck up my own self absorbment and get my ass a job. I suppose it’s about time. Saving for college and all…

Working on a brand new layout complete with updated content and posts. I want to blog again! Sorry for the short hiatus. I promise that this site will be better for it though. Meanwhile, check out my Technorati Profile. Okay! See you soon.
