This is officially my 100th blog post! Wow, I am impressed. I’ll admit, I never thought I’d see the day, but nearly two years after I started this blog, I have finally hit the big 1-0-0. Should I buy a cake? Maybe I’ll just have a beer.

I want to tell you that on this day of 100 blog posts, I have received the most beautiful quote from a fellow who runs a great blog called Zen Pencils. Get this–the guy just draws famous quotes, sometimes in comic-book style, and people love ’em so much they buy them. Initially he just wanted to mess around and just draw for a living, so he started a blog to post all of his drawings, and it completely took off. He gets people asking him to draw images from their favorite quotes all the time, and he sells them!

I’m such a sucker. He emailed his subscribers (I am one of them) last weekend saying we could buy his drawings with free shipping till like March 20th or whatever it was–so I jumped at the opportunity and bought one. And I love this quote. It’s by Albert Einstein if you can’t tell. Don’t judge people based on things they can’t do, when they weren’t meant to do them in the first place. In fact, don’t judge people. Ever. Surrender to who they are, and go about your day (unless they do something harmful to you, in that case smack a bitch and go to the police). You get the gist.

Tonight I have so many things going through my amygdala, medula oblongata, and every inch of my cortex that I can barely see through the chaos, but I am surrendering to it. I think chaos has a right to be what it was meant to be–just like the fish. Let chaos be chaos, don’t try and perfect it. Too chaotic. I’m living in an absolute mess in both of my places right now–the old apt and the new one–but these are the moments I need to savor. I’m going to miss this old apartment, and I can feel it somehow–it’s going to miss me too, and that’s kind of sweet.

So even though I’m going to have the most ultimate epic rager of a party tomorrow night to celebrate my final hours in this place, and even though I’m doing laundry till 11pm and all of my personals are in boxes, and I am sleeping on a mattress on the floor that does not belong to me, I am somehow doing it all with love, and some kind of crazy inner peace that was not always there.

Happy 100 posts you ole’ blog you. And congratulations to you reader, for reading them all
