Currently, I am reading....

...Kathy Griffin's new book (only book?).  It is quite good.  It's not your typical biography/memoir.  She gives excellent detail and even includes the not so pretty parts of her life (relationship with brother Kenny and crappy hubby Matt).  While reading the book, it feels like you are getting a glimpse into a life that is not so ordinary and ordinary all at once.  She has a job, she works hard for it, she has friends, family, heartache, love, fun, etc.  But she's famous and knows a ton of famous people.  The book gives you a "realistic" look into other famous people and their "ordinary" lives.  Overall, I recommend the book to anyone who has some time to get lost in a life that isn't yours, but sometimes, maybe you wish it was...just a little bit.

I'm starting to wonder...

....if we are all put here for a certain reason.  because if we are, i can't figure out what mine is.  i'm not particually good at anything that could make me famous/rich.  except for all the awesome story plots floating around my head that i can never get out.  i won't cure cancer/aids/some other big disease.  i definitely won't invent anything that will change the face of the world.  in fact, it seems the only thing i will do is exist.  eventually, i'll pop out some little marleykins but until then, i'm really just here, existing.  i want to have purpose.  not to sound depressing or anything, but without purpose, why get out of bed?  i like my bed and could be very happy there.  and no, going to work doesn't fly as having a purpose.  i go to work so that my hubby doesn't get stuck with all the bills.  he wouldn't like that too much.


if you are reading this (which nobody probably is), maybe you could suggest some good purposes or life changes i can make.  you know, to avoid staying in bed all day.
