Welcome!

I've been threatening to start a new blog for months now to share the crazy things my friends and I come up with along with some of my daily struggles and WTF moments.  Some days I wonder if I am normal since I come up with some insane thoughts and idea.  The awesome part of my life is that my friends are just as mad as I am.  After all, we are friends - at least most days. 

So who am I?  I'm 35 years old and I've been divorced for three years.  I've been dating and it has been fun, but I'm in a bit of a lull at the moment and I've decided to focus on me while spending good times with friends.  I've also just restarted my career in a move that took me from a telecommunications company to a software company.  This change alone wasn't challenging enough so I decided to add weight loss in as a crazy filler for my life.  

As I navigate this career change and attempt to become healthy, my friends have been with me every step of the way.  Sometimes they are a blessing and sometimes they are... well... I am just amazed that we haven't been sent to a mental institute or kicked out of our favorite bar.

Let me give you an example:

Picture me in the driver's seat of my car with Chris in the passenger seat as we are heading to a new brewery to sample some great beers and even better gourmet pizza.  I mention a friend of mine was listening to an audio-book of Lincoln's biography.  As I continued driving she ponders, "I wonder how the book ends.  With a bang?  Or maybe its just incoherent mumbling for a few pages before it goes blank?"

Really?  Really Chris?  The book was not an AUTOBIOGRAPHY!  I gave her the wtf look and just continued driving.

The next day I get this picture.

Yup.  These are my friends.  I love them.
