It's been a week since my "big move" to the Bay Area.
I don't really feel as though I've moved yet, because I'm still in that transitional-unknown-limbo place.
Trying to keep busy and each day productive is a bit of a challenge, but I think I'm doing OK.
I set my alarm for 7:30 a.m., and sometimes I get up or sometimes, like today, I hit snooze.
I then make my bed, which is an air mattress in the middle of Cat and Josh's living room, make some coffee, and do my Bible study.
Then I turn on my computer, turn on the music and browse for jobs. I try apply for at least one a day.
Then I write some.
Only then will I put a stamp on my day and go to sleep knowing I did something.

Resolutions 2009 update
In my last blog, I listed my New Year's resolutions. Here is an update to my progress:
1) In the last three weeks I have eaten meat twice. The first was one week in. I was a friend's place for dinner and had some pizza with chicken and bacon on it. D'oh! But it was very teeny tiny pieces of bacon, so it really can't count. Can it? I mean they were really small pieces. The other time I failed was today. I had chicken in my taco salad. But I believe I added a disclaimer for chicken, so technically, I've only messed up once. Other than that, I must say I'm impressed with my self-control and I really don't even miss it that much.
2) I have yet to go snowboarding, but I did go snowshoeing with a group of friends a couple weeks ago. I huffed and puffed my way over the hills and slid/fell down most of them. I thought I was going to die at least once. That was when I was sliding and couldn't stop myself and instead of helping me, my "friend" moved out of the way. He later told me I was a natural on snowshoes, to which I replied that I had a knack for waddling.
3) I have also grabbed rejection by the horns and looked it square in the face. Without going into great detail, it was pretty nervewracking, but felt great at the same time. Now, if I could only take this and apply it to all areas of my life, I very well may become unstoppable. Megan Haggerty, unstoppable reject.
4) I still live in Copperopolis. It has only been three weeks, I may be unstoppable, but I'm not a miracle worker.
