I know. I KNOW. I haven't posted 365 pictures since June 11. Who am I? I am the worst. I'm gonna take you through to the end of June and then do another post with July thus far. This should be interesting.

Jk it's a weird form of cucumber, but I was giddy all night because of this.

Guilty pleasures are beautiful. Literally.

Day 180 6.27.12
lalala another screenshot. SO exemplary of my feelings, though. Slideshow issues always.


Day 181 6.28.12
Birthday lunch the day before my birthday to accomodate LIFE.
French cuisine. I chose it because it was fancy.
Ended up maybe regretting it a little bit because there were literally 3 vegetarian choices and I could have gotten away with picking a vegan place on my birthday if I wanted to!
But this cheese plate was fantastic.

Day 182 6.29.12
BIRTHDAY.
I turn 20 and throw a party. Posted about this already

Day 183 6.30.12
Danae takes me to see Wicked!
I like it but, for the second time, am not blown away.
What's up with that??

OK. June done. It was a fast month. But what does that mean?
On to July.

Frustrated.

Sometimes I get so frustrated with technology, I just wish it would poof! disappear.

I get that it's amazing and I should just be happy that it exists because it's given us so much and resulted in so much "progression" (actually regression), but GOD can we just get a couple of things made correctly??

I shouldn't be having problems like my iTunes account suddenly being registered to some guy named Gail in Birmingham, Alabama... but with the same Apple ID?! That makes no sense at all. After taking my MacBook in to the Genius Bar twice in the last week? This should not be happening,

And should my phone be sporadically shutting down, restarting and freezing when I try to answer phone calls? No, but that's a different story entirely.

I actually relish the times I'm away from my computer and phone... it's so peaceful. I read, I think, I can just be without constant distracting stimulation. I've caught that 'disease': Once I get on the computer, I just don't get off. I forget that I was going to close it right after I checked my email, right after I checked Twitter, Facebook, Blogger... suddenly it's been over and hour and ya, I'm entertained but my To-Do List stays long and my brain stays....unenriched. I should at LEAST be blogging more, writing a story, something more productive.

Overall, I log off the computer feeling disappointed in myself and somewhat brain-dead, even if I was somewhat enjoying that hour spent Twittering, Facebooking, etc. It's just not worth it. I really can't wait to get back to school so that I can have beautiful things to look at and paths to walk and a host of things to do that don't involve a screen!
