Keepin' It Light

I had a slammin' time today. No stress! Yay! Okay, maybe a little stress. But only for a second. Also, as it turns out, I'm unemployed. But in the best of ways. (No hard feelings. It was just time.) And I cannot even tell you how light my heart is. If it could only stay this way forever, it would be nearly impossible for you to live without me.

I had a coffee date with the babe-iest of babes, Miss Eclectic Darling. We talked about coffee and people on Instagram and tattoos, and made spur-of-the-moment plans to murder adorable chicks in Starbucks and steal their clothes. (We didn't, mostly because we didn't have time.)

Then, hubby and I had dinner with his mom and her man. I was trying to hold back the insane me, all high on the mocha latte I had on an empty stomach. I over-analyze, so I spent a good chunk of the way home wondering if I sounded and looked as crazy as I felt. "I'm all jacked up on Mountain Dew!" You just roll with it, I guess. Would I have traded my coffee date to not seem like a squirrel on Red Bull? No. No, I wouldn't. And that, my friends, is the mark of a good time.

As far as good times go, I'm wondering when Fall is going to decide to show up. It's late. It's pulling a Spring, let's be real, and Spring really ticks me off. It's late EVERY YEAR! I mean, come on! You'd think it'd be used to it by now! And here we are, waiting on Fall to show up, and what do we get? We get nothing but Tumblr photos of fall and Pinterest recipes for pumpkin-flavored everything, RUDE. Well, I, for one, am fed up. I'm standing my ground. I refuse to participate in one more summer day. Time is up!

Phew. Now that that's off my chest, we can get back to happy things, like how much I'm into metallics right now or where I'll live next.

Because life is changing, people! EMBRACE.

A not-so-introduction.

Hi! It's Reghan. Welcome to Reghanland! Listen, I hate web design. It's just not my thing. Someday, someone will pull this shabby site together and make me look like a pro. Today is not that day, and tomorrow definitely isn't either. Can't really justify paying someone to fancy up my blog if the longest I've ever consistently posted was for less than a year. Then again, I'd surely use it forever if it looked great, right? Right. Awesome! Maybe tomorrow is that day!

I did a horrible thing. I went through all my Facebook photos. ALL. Don't do this. I don't recommend it at all. I actually posted a ton of horrible photos of myself over the years! What was I thinking? Are all the photos I post now going to look equally gross later on? Probably! I can't post photos under these conditions! I'm just setting myself up!

I have to tell you this, and please don't think less of me. (Luckily, you haven't seen my old Facebook photos.) ...I love fall. Ugh! It sounds cliche just coming out of my mind's mouth! In my favor, I can't get on the pumpkin spice latte bandwagon with everyone else, but I can totally wave and wish them well, because it symbolizes so much more than a pumpkin-y cup o' joe. I can appreciate that.

So, it's fall, I've got this blog now, I'll never post another selfie on Facebook (lie). I wasn't being random on purpose. (Random is another cliche term. *eye roll*) It works, though, because it brings me to my final point. I don't need a purpose. I don't need direction. Totally overrated. What I need is to be like the river, but in the Pocahontas way, because even though her dad was right, she was more right. I'm sure she's a Sagittarius. Bottom line, I'm gon' do me. This blog gon' do me. Always moving, always changing. It is whatever I want it to be. I'll keep it real. I'll change it up. Because you know what? You never step in the same river twice.
