a year+a dinner+get a grip= too early to tell

So this coming monday will be my one year anniversary at work. That's right, i've been at DDB for a full year now.
I'm not really sure what to say about it though. I mean, i love being here living my dream but (and yes there is always a but) it still feels like i'm missing something. I'm not really sure what that is yet but once I find out i'll be sure and let you know. But besides that I'm happy to be here and DDB has treated me well, better than a lot of people these days so i can't frown on that. Hopefully the next one year will be that much better.
So today i did the laundry, went running, grocery shopping and just finished dinner. Now i'm pretty sure i've already showed you guys this receipe before but I haven't made it in a while and it turned out fantastical. I mean, it really couldn't get much easier. So here is a recap:
Chicken
mushrooms
Sour cream and Dijon mustard
- 3 parts sour cream and one part dijon
Cook the chicken first then throw in the mushrooms for a couple of mins and then throw in your sauce and mix all that goodness up for a min or two. Delicious.
So I didn't have much (as in no) vegetables so you'll see the Maille pickels add a nice color contrast and in my glass is some V8. So i'm good with the veggies, kinda. Oh yeah and you can't forget the baguette. What would a proper dinner be without one? Not proper is the correct answer.




Part II - get a grip (written earlier this week)

Things have changed, obviously.
As you get older everything changes, actually not older, just as time passes. I think there is a difference there. Things can change in 3 months as fast as they can change in 3 years. Thinking of it as just getting older just because of change is wrong. You make things happen to yourself and some things just come to happen because of things that happen around you. I don't really think getting "older" has anything to do with it. Anyway, Things have changes and yes, I've gotten older.... I don't write much anymore. I used to write every couple of days and I loved it. I don't stay up as late as i used to, thanks to my job. I've become a quasi alcoholic. Probably thanks to that too. I read many more books that I used to. And I'm really happy about that. I would almost rather read a book than watch a movie which for those of you who know me is pretty amazing. If i really like the book that is. I play just as many video games as I used to. I understand the need to have someone there. I just don't understand it enough to have someone there all the time. Priorities have changed in my life. From doing what I wanted to do to being what I think I want to be. But those are often based on what I am doing that particular night. But there are also a lot of things that haven't changed. I still like to stay up and will use any excuse to do it. I will still die soon, before any of you I hope. I don't want to go to any of your funerals, ever. So please don't die before me. And I want to live in the south of france with you.
