Been a busy Bex! It's Summer and I try not to stay still during the warm weather in Syracuse. There's always something going on here during the warm months and I'm loathe to let any of it happen without me there! Early in the season I started a kind of tradition. Usually I'm pretty big on getting pictures or little memento's of whatever big event I'm at. But this year I've gone a bit bigger with that tradition because I needed the positive reinforcement. I'm kind of simple in the way that I don't appreciate bought items as much as I appreciate found items. Even if it's just a sparkly rock, it touches my heart more than anything you could ever purchase for me. Not saying I don't like bought presents but it means more to me that if you truly know me and the things that I like, you find me something instead.
When my relationship ended in the beginning of May, it hit me really hard and I was actually pretty depressed for awhile. May is when things really start to gear up here in Syracuse socially. So I made a conscious effort to get out there and start living again, A) Because I needed to get over the funk I was in B) When I was with Mav, we never did ANYTHING. I watched him get drunk at his place and wander the neighborhoods looking for scrap. It was a boring and pathetic year.
Okay, back to the story!!
So the adventures began! I have been all over the city to every event I could get to!! Crawfish Fest, Jazz Fest, Balloon Fest, Taste Of Syracuse, and every concert in between! I'm at Sharkey's every Thursday for the free concerts, on Tuesdays for trivia night, Toby Keith's on Fridays for their concerts and the killer nacho's! I've been to Cross Lake, hiking in Oswego twice, hiking at Clarks Reservation, hunting for relics at the sites of the old resorts on Onondaga lake, Pratts Falls, Owego to see my buddy race his motorcycle, Weedsport, Fulton 3 times, Volney more times than I can count, Port Byron, plus the constant BBQ's and parties at my place, I've actually lost track of all the shows in all the different places!
Behind my work desk I have a blank wall where I usually stick my post it ideas and little souvenir's like ticket stubs. In order to continually remind myself that I am in fact living my life to the fullest, making excellent memories of good times and good friends and really putting myself out there 100%, I made an "I Love Summer" wall. Every time I'm working, I look up at the wall and it's bizarre contents and can't help but smile!! Like myself, it's contents are eclectic and random but I love every single trinket!
Summer is far from over and I hope by the time it does end to have completely filled this wall with memories of a fantastic time in my life! I'm going to say, Till Next Time Faithful Readers, now and leave you with some cool pictures of my adventures. BEX THE ADVENTURER!!
