Quote of My Day


"Stop trying to control everything and just let go" - Tyler Durden, Fight Club 

Brad Pitt as Tyler Durden in Fight Club

Let's face it, this is the hottest picture of Brad Pitt... Ever! 


As for the quote, this is something I need to remember on a daily basis. I am someone who likes to have a plan and be in control of everything I possibly can be. Sometimes, you just have to remember that you just have to let go and let fate take it's course!

...You Lose Some

When I was 6 years old I lost both my Papa and my Grandpa two weeks apart. As a child, I didn't understand what was going on.

Quote of My Day

I have written before about escaping . When I lived in Tennessee it was a lot easier to just get in my car, drive into the mountainous area where my favorite lake was, lose cell service, and hide for a weekend. Living back in Ohio has made it a little more difficult to escape to anywhere. Life has been very crazy this summer. One of my best friends and I, however, found a great escape. We kept saying we wanted to work out, which I've even stated on my 30 before 30 list that I wanted to work out more, and we found a way that wasn't too much or too little. Bicycling There's a bike trail that runs north and south about 2 miles from where I live so we ride over to the trail and usually head north to get a little exercise and catch up on our gossip. I have found this to be a wonderful outlet. In the beginning we called it our BBR's (Bestie Bike Rides). Now I just call it a bike escape.  When my friend can't go with me, I plug in my headphones to my iPod...
