Re-birth of the Blog
I think its about time I dusted off this blog. It was therapeutic before when I had it. Semi-anonymous posts about my random fucked up life. So much has happened in the year since I posted, and yet its hard to believe another whole year has passed me by. When I was young, my parents told me life would speed up when I was older but I never believed them. Now I find the truly frightening thing is...

I think both of the quotes I just posted are true.. but I think the most important factor is this… life is a series of random events filled with random people. It’s what you make of those events and the relationships that develop with those people that make a life truly lived.

You know, the longer I live, the more I realize just how much of life is about timing. And also, that people will drift back into your life when you least expect it. Life is so much more random than I ever believed when I was younger.
“Without music, life would be an error.”
– Friedrich Nietzsche
How true.
Just had a very painful end to an evening. I was watching the second season of The Office (British version) and there is a couple there who are not together, but the tension between them is very obvious. I asked the person I was watching it with if the two ever get together as I know their counterparts do on the American version. He said to wait and see. I sat there awkwardly as the sound went off...

Oh god…. you know you have an awesome friend when she forgives you and doesn’t say anything, even after you puke on her bed and she cleans it up.
Come to think of it, if I ever get remarried I think I’m going to put that in...
“Hey how r u i was woundering and u can say no since we already sletp togeter...”
– Via text message from the guy I went on one date with, several hours before what was to be our second date. This was after I told him that I wanted to take things slower in the future as I wasn’t totally comfortable with how fast things had gone on our first date. Classy. So classy.
You know what honest to god scares me the most? That it’ll never ever happen between us. That I’ll wait and wait and wait till my life runs out and I’ll never have the chance to experience being with you. That terrifies the fuck right out of me.
Regarding the slip and slide water walking contraption seen at the YMCA today:
Me: Maybe that was what Jesus was walking on in the Bible.
J: Oh yeah, they just edited the slip and slide part out.
Me: Yeah, it's totally possible you know.
J: Yeah, for sure. And they thought it would be cool to make a story about a guy living in a fish.
Me: Definitely. But seriously, maybe Jesus really did have one of those things, took a few steps on it, and you know people just edited that bit out.
J: Hmm... I don't know that seems kind of important.
Me: Well you know how it is, they didn't write those books until like at least a hundred years later. Something could've gotten lost in the telling. I mean, have you ever played telephone?!? Seriously.
J: That's gotta go in the blog, E. If you don't write it in, I will.
So here ya go J, I dusted off the old tumblr just for you. ;)
Me: Yeah, I just don't see how I'm ever going to get a boyfriend unless I move away.
Mom: But you don't want to leave P-town.
Me: I know. It's just that all the good quality guys here are either gay or taken. The gay guys are great though. It's not fair to women.
Mom: Well, you know, relationships don't last as long anymore.
Me: I know.
Mom: So maybe some of these guys will be looking for girlfriends again in the future.
Me: I guess, yeah.
Mom: That's about all you can hope for.
Me: Thanks Mom.
Pseudo - Boyfriend
So my friends and I have been on and off discussing my relationship with the [current] love of my life, and the inconvenience of his girlfriend. Today while in the car though my friend hit the nail on the head (Thanks InComedySheTrusts) in her definition of our relationship.
We’ve all heard of friends with benefits (good lord only knows I’ve heard too much about that...

How do you cope when you find out that your husband has realized that they are a woman? What do you do with that soul crushing pain? Does life continue when your depression feels as though it’s going to swallow you whole and suck you away? What happens when the man you fall in love with is the one that you can’t have? After your marriage falls apart, and you find the man who...

I have a confession to make:
I like to think I know what I’m talking about sometimes. And sometimes I’ll actually say something that totally makes sense. But really, at the end of the day, I still usually feel like this scared little girl who’s desparately trying to figure life out, and wishing someone would come along and protect me from it all. This growing up stuff is...
Sometimes, when I’m high, I actually find him less attractive. It’s true.

Improv....
Him: Well, at least you had good grades. I was barely sliding through with 52s, but you, you got 98!!
Me: Yes, well, you do realize the only reason I got 98s was because I was sleeping with the teachers. Right?
Her: The teachers!?! I wish I had been sleeping with the teachers, no, I was being taken advantage of by the entire football team!
Him: They took advantage of you? I paid them all $100 and none of them would take advantage of me!
Me: Yes well, that's too bad, but you know, at least the football team, they're kind of hot, you know with their muscles and all. Me? I was being taken advantage of.... by the science club!!!
Stress Leave....
I’ve been so stressed out by work lately that I ended up experiencing burnt out and was advised to take two weeks stress leave, which I did. So far my leave has consisted of almost single-handedly planning, catering, decorating, setting up, photographing, and paying for my friend’s baby shower (only help came from my mom). Then there was the attempted murder about three doors down from...
My friend: Anything new happening in your love life?
Me: No, why.
My friend: Oh, just the condoms in your glove compartment.
Me: Oh, those. Yeah, I bought those in an attempt to try positive thinking. Like if you put something out there and make plans for it, it'll happen.
My friend: Ah. So basically, if you buy it, he will come.
One of my favourite pieces of christian rhetoric is the loving saying that “God doesn’t give anyone more than they can handle.”
Sure….. that’s why no one, never, in the whole history of the world has committed suicide, or succumbed to alcoholism, or become a drug addict.
I think many people are given more than they can handle. Some people are able to muddle through...
“Those who just don’t want children are also the objects of pity.”

This is such bullshit. I don’t deserve to be pitied, I’m quite happy with my choice not to have kids.
I started smoking a couple of weeks ago. It was short lived (for now) as I only smoked my way through one pack and have yet to buy another. I am sorely tempted to go buy one right now though. In all honesty, I think I know why I do it when I’m stressed. I know how terrible for me it is. So, I think that, for me, smoking is a socially acceptable method of self injury. Yeah, I’m just...
I just watched My Best Friend’s Wedding on tv. I thought when I started watching it that she gets her man in the end. I was wrong (sorry for the spoiler). Now I feel worse instead of better, and am beginning to question if I’m a horrible evil person for wishing them to break-up.

The night I lost my virginity, we had to hurry up because we were late for youth group.
I’m scared. I’m fucking terrified. I just wish I knew a way off this crash course.
I’m so confused…. he either referred to me as his girlfriend, or said a friend’s girlfriend was going to the convention with him. I wish I could figure it out.
Need to: Buy red bristol board for my latest creative project.
I would give up everything else I possess just for one night with you, one where you loved me and held me and I could rest in your arms.
I realized yesterday that most of the things that I was warned about in Christian elementary school are things that I do or have done. And quite frankly, I”m not the evil fucked-up person they made the person who does these things out to me. I lost my virginity before I got married, and I would definitely sleep with someone else, I refuse to remarry before I’ve lived with someone, and...
Right now I feel like the protagonist in one of those movies like My Best Friend’s Wedding. And it hurts…. a lot.
