i miss blogging
maybe someday i'll have time again... someday.
: are you listening? :
It's been almost 8 months since I last blogged. I have so much to write about, and am definitely in the mood to write it, but I'm at work and I really shouldn't be doing this right now. It's all on the tips of my fingers but the clock is ticking.
haha, i just thought of that old commercial. (what was this commercial for anyways?)
i've been feeling lost lately. i don't want to blog because i have nothing to blog. people usually blog when they're feeling something significant, but most of the time, i can't find any feeling (or philosophy, for all you thinkers out there) big enough to write about. i don't necessarily shut myself off on purpose, but at the same time, i've let myself become a coaster (as in coasting through life, not a drink coaster. then again...). my success: if there are no extreme ups, then concurrently there are no extreme downs.
i've come to realize that my last kiss... wasn't long enough

i like writing creatively. but that doesn't mean it comes easily to me. what you are about to read is a little comment i wrote Beth that was illuminated by a very small area of my mind and therefore is quite likely only 5% grammar-correct. who cares. come on, something that is worthy of being blogged in my... blog... has got to be one in a million (maybe that's cause i only blog once in a million)...
a thought by a good friend Jono, followed by my response and perpetual struggle:
i found the electric fireplace i want and likely we will get:

I think my results are debatable... please post a reply and vote: Is this the real Lauren underneath, or do quiz results lie?
You scored as Lara Croft. A thrill-seeking, slightly unscrupulous, tough-as-nails archaeologist, Lara Croft travels the world in search of ancient relics perhaps better left hidden. She packs two Colt .45s and has no fear of jumping off buildings, exploring creepy tombs, or taking on evil meglomaniacs bent on world domination.

i'm sorry i really haven't had time to update my blog with personal rants/reflections/daily schedules. the first half of the year has been primarily filled with wedding planning and house possession, leaving me little time to muse over road rage, stencils, or anything else people blog about these days.

For almost my whole life I've struggled with how to hear God speak and to discern between his voice, the world's voice, and the voice I want to be his. This has been something I've wanted to secure in my life, but I realize there is no absolute formula on how to hear God.
