Now Hiring

As I'm sitting here on my couch binge-watching the second season of Friends on Netflix and listening to the Washington rain pour down outside, something dawned on me. I don't have any friends here. All of my friends and family are in different states and countries. I've always been more comfortable with the friends I already have. Talking to them on Facebook, over text, or sometimes even Skype, helps with the distance, but nothing beats genuine human interaction. The only human interaction I'm getting at this point is my husband who happens to be in and out of my little world for work, and the cashiers at Target and Safeway. I'm starting to go crazy with just a fetus and a Beagle to talk to. Pretty soon you're going to find me sitting in the park having conversations with the pigeons and laughing maniacally to myself. I can't help that I'm shy and like to stick to what's familiar, but the loneliness is slowly eating away at my soul and I finally decided it's time to make some friends. Well... friend. We'll start with uno amigo and see how that works out... Updates to come. Brace yourself for the next post: Park singing with Pigeons.

  1. You are easy to talk to, you'll find a friend or 2 or more. I don't think there will be too much singing to the Pigeons with Milo around, he will probably be chasing them
