Meaty Monday: What'chu Waiting For???

The above is a question that I have been asking myself frequently over the last few months. What am I waiting for? There are so many things I want to do, to accomplish, to experience...


What the hell am I waiting for then?
Grab life by the proverbial balls and TAKE CONTROL.

Stop living life passively and take action, actively seeking out the things you want from life.
You want a better job? Go out and get one.
You want to find love? Go out and find it.
You want to go to South Korea to each English for an indeterminate amount of time? Apply to a recruiter and get your crap together. Go out and DO IT.
You cannot expect the rest of the world to live your life for you, to give you the opportunities that you want, to hand everything to you on a silver platter. If you really want something, if you NEED it, you have to go out and grab it for yourself. Only you can live your life.

Sure, Nashville was the tiny little speck of green surrounded by a sea of white (see below), but while we didn't get the precipitation that 80% (grumblegrumble) of the rest of the country received, we did, however, get what the meteorologists called "bitter cold." And bitter it was.

Granted, Nashville's idea of bitter cold is in the single digits (e.g. 5-6 degrees Fahrenheit) whereas in places further north like Michigan, Wisconsin, and - you know - Canada, bitterness doesn't really come around until you get into the negatives. Shut up, …
