Just so you know, Mey (a good friend of mine) and I started a blog!
It's my first collaborative blog, and as such, it fills me with excitement and inspiration. As well as wonder at how cool it is that I only have to do half the writing to create 100% of the content. Tiz awesome.
We two girls have made a habit of thinking (often in the guise of ranting) about this, that, and the other thing (meaning philosophy, spirituality, and stuff) since we met the first day of college. And we figure it's time to fearlessly go public.
So please. Follow along. and join in. We'd love fellow authors and contributors once we get rollin.
Our humble beginnings:

We gotta go!

Ok, so. Anyone who:
... feels like they need more cool things in their life,
... or feels like they need to be enticed out of the house more often,
... or needs something to make life feel awesome again,
... or knows of any really cool places,
... OR is just plain curious to know what I'm talking about by now,
needs to check out this site:
atlasobscura.com
And then tell me if you're about to go to any of these places so I can come. Seriously. Don't go without me.

12:34 matters.

I really don't know how I got started on this.
I think it was just something I kept noticing. After a while I realized I had an opinion. And that I liked having that opinion. That's right. I have a favorite minute. And it's not the average 11:11. It's 12:34.
There are a couple of things I love about having this minute. First of all, I just plain think it looks good. I really do. It's a good looking minute.
But more importantly I've been finding lately that having that minute is like planting a surprise gift for myself.
I never catch it on purpose. I never set any alarms. I don't anxiously wait for it. Sometimes I forget I even like it. But every now and then I look up at the clock and there it is. 12:34. Staring right at me. And it's great. Because all my focus sort of just zooms into it. And anything I was working on, anything I was worrying about, really doesn't matter. I suddenly realize I'm in my favorite min and there is no guilt in taking the whole thing to enjoy.
How awesome is it that there are two of them in a day?
on a side note: this does have the effect of making 12:33 the longest minute that ever existed, and 12:35 the lamest. but it's worth it. ;)
on another side note: I feel it is my duty to tell you that there is actually a Facebook group dedicated to 12:34 (I didn't make it!) and if any of you feel this way - or come to feel this way in the future - you should unite with us.
