Hungry and Tired

I am a bit tired. Not sure why. I am waking up later and going to bed at a reasonable hour. It's probably all the late nights from my younger days. Ha!

Sending a package to Africa today.

Starting my spring cleaning. I might cancel that tho. Its up in the air. Hoping to be out of this house sooooooooooooooooooooooooooon. Like yesterday.

I have to lose a dress size before Tors wedding. Which would be in a little over 3 weeks. Wish me luuuuck.

Ok, back to important things. Like, facebook.

I leave you with this: (probably at the top of this post)

I love my Sims

I am currently in a video game mood. Really interested in playing video games tonight. Boo ya. My plan is to start a new family and keep playing until I basically own the town of Sims. I'm assuming that was their ultimate goal as some the trophies are incredibly hard. So, that I will do. Unfortunately I am not a big fan of multiple Sims under my control, but I am eager to trophy up! Plan A: Create a mother and father with two different jobs and have them work their way up. Plan B: Have a child that can stay home and do other things.

This is my plan for the week. Wish me luck.

Laundry

So, as it turns out, it is actually incredibly hard to do laundry when the units do not have knobs. The lovely tenants from upstairs took all the knobs, but forgot their cats. I mean, note to self, when leaving a unit with appliances, always take the knobs. Booya.

I need a haircut really bad. My face and my haircut are not getting along.

Let's start this party

Jons party is on Friday and I am Faarreaking out! I always get really stressed about this kind of stuff. There are many hands involved in this party and I just hope everything goes well. I just need this week to end and the partay to begin!!!!

Work is going ok. I think I am doing better this week. Last week was a dooozy, but I survived and learned about the mistakes I am making.

Oh, and I forgot how old I was today. 26. Not 27. Thank Goodness!

'Nuff for now

Peace

Re-resolutions

Ok, all the resolutions I had set have pretty much been broken. Going to work on my re-resolutions. It has always interested me that people are obsessed with changing themselves on New Years. Why not just start on a random Wed? Reinvention is an amazing thing. One of the best things I did was move to a different city. Moving didnt stop any of my problems, but they certainly helped put things into perspective. I have been in Indiana for 5 years. I have gained a college degree, am now engaged and have created a life I feel I was meant for. OMG. I am engaged. Really?!? I can hardly believe it. I wanted it and now that its here I just cannot believe it. Victoria (my goofy sister) is getting married in April, so we will be focusing on her instead. :)

Big step...Jon and I discussed the possibility of sharing a bank account now that we are engaged. It is really scary to think we are actually becoming a little family. Ack! Update on this later will be pertinent.

Ok, here at work on a Monday, wanting to be asleep as I got little sleep this weekend.

Good day

LLLadies and Gentlemen

I am Engaged.

It happened 02-12-11 in French Lick, Indiana.

I was very surprised and it was incredibly sweet.

Old Posts

1. That baby picture of Emma almost killed me.

2. I used to be a lot funnier. Need to work on that.

3. All the motivation from past blogs has got me a little motivated. We shall see.

4. Flos in town.

Long time

It has been a long time since I have been on here. The main reason for my blogging is for my good friend Audrey that is on her second leg in Africa. Hello Audrey! :)

A lot of stressful events have been occuring and I am going to use this as my stress reliever so I can leave Jon alone.

Living below people is always difficult, but right now it is especially difficult because those people happen to be my boyfriend (Jons) tenants. They are they most inconsiderate people I have ever met. Constant yelling, partying etc. They cannot afford to pay thier rent but yet, they are seemingly always high. My frustration is not the people itself (well, maybe a little) but the fact that those people still remain although they cannot pay a dime. Actually, thier electricity has now been shut off for a week and the hilarity of this is that they bought camping supplies to survive. When their electricity is shut off, so is our laundry room. So, Sunday we had to spend hours at a laundrymat. These people will always be refered to as the stripper, beater boyfriend, Bob and brother...to protect thier actual identities.

My car is dead. The first car I ever purchased is dead and I am sad. :( I ended up getting good money out of the car, but I am dissapointed because the car represented my true independence. The first large purchas I made, on my own, without the help of my parents. Photo of my car above. Its not the prettiest, but I loved it.

A good friend is getting married, to a person she has known maybe 6 months. Now, I am in no hurry to wed, but I can say that I feel a little entitle to be married before her. I know I know. I def do not believe in entitlements, but I have to say, I wanted this before she did. I am happy for her and I only wish the best, but I think this has brought out a lot of jealousy. Not just on my part either. I believe my friends are feeling the same way. Her wedding is this weekend and I still do not have an invitation. Annoying. Beginning to think I'm not invited.

Getting a job is a great thing. I am incredibly proud of myself. Now that I have had a good job for about a month and a half, I am realizing how more money can be a bad thing. I was previously quite frugal, now I am crazy with my money and only seeing the negative effects. It is def time to sit down and figure things out.

Speaking of my job. I love it. I really do. The people, the job, everything is so amazing. I am feeling a little sick today, but I am still happy about my job.

I need to remember the good things going on in my life. I think this winter has put me into a serious funk and its been incredibly dissapointing. I am looking forward to longer days, sunshine and a summer beer!

More to come!
