Holding out for...

Find a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot, who calls you back when you hang up on him, who will stay awake just to watch you sleep. Wait for the guy who kisses your forehead, who wants to show you off to the world when you are in your sweats, who holds your hand in front of his friends, Wait for the one who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares about you and how lucky he is to have you. Wait for the one who turns to his friends and says, "...that's her."

Lea's challenge to write about dating requirements has been rolling around in my head for a few weeks but I have quite the list going and didnt know how to narrow it. I saw this today and KNEW...this is my answer! (Thank you Lindsay T.)

Boys...

Its been one whole blog entry since I mentioned them so I know that my adoring public is waiting anxiously (huge helping of sarcastic wit there)

This past weekend, I met a nice boy. Theres a shortage of them in my life so this is a blog worthy event. We're still in the awkward getting to know you phase which is further complicated by the fact that he lives about 9 hours away!! But at this point Im ok going slow cause I dont wanna screw this up...Im tired of screwing up relationships. Even if it doesnt become a forever thing I want to be able to stay friends (Im close to his family) and look at it as something that I dont have to be ashamed of how it turned out.

Creative envy

I feel like I soak up everyone elses creativity from scrapbook pages or blogs or books but than I feel so intimidated when I try to get my own voice onto paper. I rarely journal on my pages I update this thing way less than I should and I just now started journaling again (3 days and counting...) Being the self analytical person that I am I have to discover why I envy what others write in their blog They inspire me or strike a chord in my soul but I cannot be as funny or as deep or as clever so I dont want to put myself out there. What is holding me back and why? I want so many things and I know that I am the one standing in my own way but I dont know how to get out of the way.
