I'm still breathing

So, I've neglected blogging long enough. Here is another post about my dull existence.

I got a new bike. It's a cruiser-mountain bike hybrid. It's awesome. It's the best bike ever.

I went to a 7 year-old's birthday party. It was pink and candy themed. It was awesome. It was the best birthday party ever.

I participated in a clothes swap event. I got a cute brown dress/tunic. It was awesome. It was the best clothes swap ever.

I'm washing my bed linens right now. We're almost out of detergent. It's awesome. It's the best washing of my linens ever.

Okay, okay... I'll quit with that. But yeah, that's really about all that's going on here. I ordered a new iPhone charging cable because my piece of shit one that came with the phone has basically killed itself half-to-death (oxymoron, ftw). I also ordered a pair of glasses because they were cheap and it's being shipped for free. Yay me.

Oh, guess who passed their online driver's course? THIS CHICK RIGHT FUCKING HERE. That's right. In a few days I'm gonna go to the DMV and rock the hell out of that driving exam. I don't have to take the "written" one THANK GOD. I also take a new picture so I won't have to put up with my state ID picture anymore. I swear I look like some cracked out prostitute with a $2 weave. I look haggard in that picture, so good friggin' riddance.

Let's see, what else have I been up to? Ah, well the other day I took some of my old clothes to sell at Buffalo Exchange. A really nice gay guy went through my stuff to see what he'd buy from me. I can't remember how many things he took but I made 15 bucks. Psshyeah, bitches. Anyway, he was rather funny and reminded me how much I want a gay BFF. I need a Jack to my Karen. You like that Will & Grace reference? No? Well.... I DID.

Since I was partying it up on Saturday I missed SNL's season premier, but I watched it on Hulu last night. Let me just say how sad it is that SNL is only funny when they bring back old cast members. I'm not complaining, but it's just.... sad. Here's hoping that the new kids they have this season will be funnier than the last batch they signed on.

I think I'm done complaining for now. Ha. Enjoy the rest of your day/week/month. Hope you're well, whoever you are that's reading this nonsense.

Secret #3

I've been deflecting pain with humor since the 5th grade.

Rummaging for answers in the pages

Hi all... My life has remained as mundane as ever. I actually haven't felt all that well to write a blog but I figured now would be just as good a time as ever. I also went about a week without home internet, so that kept me from updating as well. Here's what I've been up to...

 This past weekend my grandmother had a mini stroke. She's fine but it rattled my mother's nerves rather horribly. It's so.. odd, I guess. My mother always gives off this notion of being so strong... It's weird and really unsettling to see her cry. I love my mother so much. She hasn't been at home much. Before she left, I was already missing her. I found it so hard to say that to her. That I missed her. I felt like it would be a bitch-move to do so. I didn't want to be a jerk and make her feel bad for not being around. I decided not to say anything to her. It's a weird situation. I mean, I think she'd be warmed at knowing that although she can be a little annoying sometimes... I truly miss having her at home. I miss just talking to her. I'm still so weak. I need my mother. What really sucked is that my parents weren't talking much in the days leading up to her leaving this weekend. I didn't understand why. I've learned to just shrug it off and not give a shit. Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one who's realized how precious life is. Yeah, I act like I hate a lot of things... but I'm learning not to take so many things for granted. We really don't know how long we have here. I'm not saying that we should just wait around to die... I'm saying that maybe we should celebrate life more. Let the stupid shit go. Don't get me wrong. I still like to complain about things and talk shit about stuff I don't like... but carrying grudges around is not something I plan on doing anymore. It's simply not worth it. Am I ranting? Yes, very much so.

What else I do? Oh, I watched the Glee season premier. It made me fucking cry. I also don't like many of the characters this time around. I might construct a rant about it later... if I feel up for it. Uh, I saw Easy A finally. I liked it. Maybe not as much as I wanted to, but Emma Stone is undeniably cute and likable. Also saw Machete and Going The Distance a few weeks back. Yep.

I'm guessing that's really all I have to say. Until later...

You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter

My first blog post of the month. Yes... this is what this is. So, I guess I shall tell you about what I've done lately. Yesterday I got my eyebrows threaded. If you don't know what threading is, it's basically getting your hair yanked out with thread. I'm horrible at describing things sometimes, so forgive me. I'm really happy with the results. My brows were looking haggard. Tomorrow I plan on getting an eight dollar hair cut. It's a resseshun. Errbody po'.

Today... at school I ran into an old high school classmate and I also had lunch with Eddie. He made fun of me for having an iPhone. I made fun of me for having an iPhone. Good times, good times.

At the moment I'm enjoying a pear and NOT doing my online driver's ed class. I've got five chapters left until the final test. I've been putting it off because that's kind of my style. I should also be doing laundry, but I probably won't put that off because that's important. Who cares if I can drive legally if there's mud-stains on the cuffs of my jeans?

I've got some pictures that I've wanted to share with you, but again... laziness takes hold. That and sometimes my mood sinks quite low and well... at those points I just like to watch funny things on TV or read. I still haven't started on Dead Like Me and I really should. Oh, I've also developed a small love for comic books. Shhh, don't tell all the cool kids down the street... They'll beat me up and steal my notebook that's covered in writing that says "I <3 Deadpool" all over it. :(

Okay kids, this bitter old lady needs to get off the computer machine because her stories are on. Actually, I'm off to watch King of the Hill, so I'm not that lame... right?
