Back In Action!

Well...it has been quite some time since I've updated. Maybe that's because, within a matter or weeks, my world turned to complete chaos! I get the feeling that it's not over yet, but figured I'd start blogging again to vent.

I don't have friends. Okay, maybe 2. One works all the time and is too busy for me. The other lives nearly two hours away if you take I-45 traffic into consideration. (Which you should!) So...my social interaction is limited to a 9 month old, a 4 year old, their parents for 5 minutes in the morning and evenings, and possible a neighbor or grocery store deli man. Very lame. I'm aware. It's not that I'm not a friendly person-I think I am-it's just that my new neighborhood (Oh yeah, I MOVED!) is mostly made of middle age families and older retired people. It's clean, really nice and quiet and I absolutely LOVE it! Well...minus being lonely all the time.

Things got nasty between James and I. We hardly talk-maybe once a week for 2 minutes if I have a question about my car or something. I'm only 22. I don't need to be held down by someone who doesn't treat me with respect. So...I still go on dates, but this time with my sisters! :)

I'm still nanny-ing. I'm not gonna lie-it's rough right now. Sometimes I just want to scream. Teething+frustration from not quite being able to walk+tummy troubles=me going psycho...almost. Micah's already 9 MONTHS! Wow. Izzy's 4 now and starting to test the waters a bit more. She'll try talking back, questioning me, or ignoring me. I'm pretty good at telling her to "check her attitude and try again," which works 4/5 times.

I've been spending my Saturday mornings on YouTube lately. Yep, YouTube. But seriously-I've met some incredible people! I won a blog drawing from Nat Neagle and got "Huge Lips, Skinny Hips" (a lip gloss with Hoodia) last week! Only thing is, when I tried to open it, the top completely broke off! I emailed Purple Labs and hopefully they'll work something out with me. I didn't want to tell Nat...I know she had nothing to do with it since it came direct from NY, but I know I'd still feel bad if it were my contest.

I don't actually make videos myself, but a few people have asked my input on theirs. One girl I watch has audio problems and sits WAY too close to the camera. Another starts talking about makeup and gets off topic and stumbles over her words. I guess my work with film, public speaking and speech writing comes in handy after all! Maybe I'll make some videos one day...You just make yourself complete vulnerable when you put your video online for billions of people to see!

Another thing-PEOPLE ARE RUDE! R-U-D-E RUDE! I was friends with this guy...we'll call him "Benny." Benny and I went to college together. We texted and kept in touch for a few months last year-then all of a sudden Benny disappeared! Ignored my calls/texts/comments/wall posts...everything! I found out Benny would be in town for his job and tried to get in touch-but nothing. So...I decided the phrase "Don't let someone become your priority while you remain their option" applies to friendship to. So...buhbye, loser!

Someone come over and block Ebay on my computer! Seriously. Helllllllo, new addiction!

I'm still totally into Lush, too. I should be a brand ambassador. I still have over 10lbs of soap from their huge holiday sale! I'm starting to fizzle out on bath bombs, though. Very sad day. I wish they'd bring back Haagenbath! :( I don't want to have to buy the $40 kit just for that one bomb!

Okay. Imma go now.
