Ramblings of the first post in a while.

I feel like it's been a long time since I've felt truly passionate about something. I think most of the time I go through the motions and do life like I always have... except... When I look back on things... It makes me laugh because my life has been a sort of adventure.

I remember I used to read books and long for the adventure knowing it would take a deal of personal sacrifice.  Its funny to me now how I didn't see how adventurous my life really was because the adventure wasn't how I pictured it.  It's funny to me that I'm the "heroine of my own story".  Sort of.  And it's especially funny to me that where I once longed for adventure, I now long for the mundane.

Don't get me wrong, I still have that desire for adventure... in small doses. But mostly my desires center around the idea of holding down a job, getting an apartment, meeting a nice guy, dating for a little while, getting married and starting the adventure of building a family.

Life is hard.

I'm nowhere near where I thought I would be. But maybe there's a learning curve.   One of the things I really want to do right now is get my finances on track.  And I think i'm in a good place to do that. I've got a great job and I seem to be doing alright in it.  I've started mini investments through an app on my phone. Ive started a savings account.  These are all in the beginnings... but i feel like I'm in a good place with them right now. I guess we will see where things go.
