Happy (day before) Turkey Day

You may have noticed that the page has gone through a bit of a makeover.  I needed something fresh to look at.  Also, I wondered how easy it was to look at and read for some people. So here it is now.  What do you think?  I love it, and that's what really matters.

I've started taking these free online classes on open2study.com.  You don't have to give them any personal information which is really nice.  And the classes are free and set up with lectures and quizzes.  I think it's pretty great.  It's a free way to keep learning or to stay refreshed.  I'm taking a "Becoming Human" Anthro class to make sure I'm remembering all the information I spent 4 years of my life on. I'm also taking a "Writing for the Web" class.  That's what got me to thinking about how easy it was to look at and read my page.  It's also got me thinking about how I write too.  Granted, I know this is a personal blog so the theme of it is my thoughts and feelings and it's about my life and how I view the world.  And I put it out there so that you can know my perspective, compare it to yours, and possibly gain a deeper understanding of either yourself or the world.  Haha, when I actually say it it sounds really cheesy, but I think it's important.  But I still wonder if I should have set things that I talk about each blog.....hmmm fuck it.  It's like this blog is my mind on a page.  I probably couldn't change it if I tried.  If I did change it, it would probably be crap and no one would look at it anymore.  The point is to have sort of a working current journal. I accomplish that single point.  See the class is paying off already lol

I may or may not update tomorrow. It is Thanksgiving day and I am not doing anything except my Cal (I heard that the proper term is "Cal" and that saying they lived in "Cali" was kind of an insult >_<) marine friend is visiting who I haven't seen in forever! So that will be great. If I don't update tomorrow then it will be next week.  I'm visiting my bestie, Peak, this weekend for his 21st birthday! Little scamp, just growing up so fast. But I will be getting to go to a casino with him for the first time ever.  So I will definitely have a good bit to say after the weekend.  It really just all depends on whether or not I will post Thanksgiving day.  Which I guess I probably shouldn't because everyone will be with their families and wont read it anyway.

HA! Who am I kidding? We are all so glued to our electronic devices and staying up-to-date on our social media outlets that I will probably post and you will probably read it too! Though I must say the chances of me posting tomorrow are downright small, but at least we've had today!

Of Monsters and Men "Little Talks"
This is a pretty great band.  I know that I love this song.  I've heard some of the other and they are pretty good too, but this one is probably my favorite I've heard so far.


Cheerfully,
Mav
