BABIES?!

Because I am home alone with my nephew (he's asleep now) I have had time to do some Facebook stalking. While I have been creeping on some people I knew, or VERY VAGUELY knew, from high school I have seen an overwhelming pattern. EVERYONE HAS HAD/ IS HAVING A KID!!

I guess condoms, or birth control, or marriage is not a big deal to anyone who went to my High School.

I/ we graduated in 2008, I think popping out babies a year or two after graduation had become a trendy thing. I personally don't get it. YOU ARE 20 YEARS OLD! Live your life a little before having a kid. Or at least make a conscientious effort to deter pregnancy(which maybe they were, who knows, but the number of girls with babies makes me question).

I don't know. Maybe I am being Judgy McJudgerson but I am starting to feel like babies are the new accessory among my fellow '08 Grads.

Weird.

(Hope nobody takes offense. I am all for people exercising their right to procreate, but I do think your teens/ early twenties is too early to have a child, especially when the average life expectancy is 78.7 years. T and I both can wait a few more years before we start a family. There is too much stuff in the world that we haven't explored yet!)

More Money More Problems? Who Made Up That Lie?

I just went from making $3,055 a month to $1,200...

What absolute terrible timing. We have a wedding & honeymoon (airline tickets) to pay for.I guess I am thankful to still have a job but it is time to start looking for a second.

Today sucked...

The End.

I'm Just Being Honest

T occasionally reads my blog and he read my rant about him and he was a little upset about it (and I totally don't blame him. I would be upset too if it were the other way around so I completely understand). Since the blog post he has been really helping out. In turn I am becoming much happier so everything is all good. T wants me to take the post down because, as he puts it,

One bad thing ruins a persons reputation.

I have been thinking a lot about taking the post down but this is how I see it. It is my blog and in all my posts I am open and honest. I am not going to sugar coat things just because friends, family, and bloggy friends read this. So my ultimate decision is that I am not taking the post down.

One thing I can tell you ladies (and Justin) is that I LOVE T. And yes, he can be a jerky little kid sometimes, but what guy isn't? T is the love of my life, my rock. He makes me laugh, he has my back, he showers me with love (in his own silly way). He gives me medicine when I am sick, brings a bucket to the bed when I am barfing my brains out (I definitely overdid it that night), and rubs my back when it hurts from sitting in front of a computer all day.

I love him with all my heart and that will NEVER change. We have our ups and downs but that is what marriage is about right?
I love this boy!

What's YOUR Song Linkup

Linkup time at Goodnight Moon!

Oh man, this is old school, and by old school I really mean just a few years old. But one of my friends in my freshman agriculture class (and yes, just in case you were wondering I was in Future Farmers of America, aka FFA, in high school. I definitely sported the jacket too, Napoleon Dynamite style) introduced me to the band Panic! At The Disco and I was OBSESSED with the album "A Fever You Can't Sweat Out"

I started to listen to them at work this week and I forgot how good this whole album was! This is my favorite song from the album titled "Build God, Then We'll Talk".

Why Are Boys So Mean?

I didn't go to work today because I woke up and my face was HUGEEE. I am having an allergic reaction to SOMETHING but I have no clue what. I cannot get an appointment with the doctor for today so I am testing out the Doctor Chat thingy the NH does.

Anyway, T said the meanest thing yesterday. I was trying to get him to thank me for making him dinner (I get home 3 hours later than he does and I ALWAYS make dinner. In the 3 hours that he is home before me he plays basketball and then plays on the computer. He RARELY helps around the house or with ANYTHING for that matter) so I say:

"Your welcome for dinner"
 and he says
"Your welcome for BAH"

WOWWWWW, so rude! He really knows how to push my buttons and I am pretty sure he does it on purpose. He purposely tries to push my buttons because he thinks it's funny but it makes me feel unappreciated.

On a side note, if it wasn't for me and my salary we would have NOTHING is our savings account.

Every time I talk to him about how these things make me feel he just laughs like it doesn't matter. I am so annoyed, and hurt, and sad. I am sick and tired that he thinks everything is a joke and I am sick of him taking me for granted.

I am boycotting everything until he stops being such a douche bag.

The End.

Weekly Weigh In- Week 1

So here is the deal. I have been pretty bummed lately about my weight. Ever since I started working in an office and completely nixing exercising altogether I have become a tubby bucket of lard. Just as a reference, until about 6 months ago I was right around 115 (being a mere 5'2 that's pretty decent, I was happy with it). The last time I went to the doctor about a month ago I weighed in at, wait for it, 128 (my ta-tas are definitely loving the weight gain though)! I new I had gained weight because NONE of my jeans fit and my boobs no longer fit in my bras, but to see it on a scale really bummed me out. Now I finally have the time and opportunity to do something about it.

So I am on a mission. To drop the pounds and loose some inches. Since I do not own a scale I cannot track the pounds (and maybe it is better this way anyway. Obsessing over pounds is not healthy) but I definitely bought a fabric tape measure to track my progress.  

AND since I like food way too much to restrict myself from anything I am starting a weekly exercise regiment. Since on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday I do not carpool (so I leave my house  later) I will be waking up at 5am and working out for an hour (thank goodness you can stream workout videos on Netflix and that we moved the TV to the living room). Then on Saturday OR Sunday OR maybe even both days ( I like giving myself the choice) I will work out in my community fitness center.

Every week I will do a weekly weigh in to track my progress(even though it is technically not a weigh in). I feel that if I commit to a weekly weigh in on my blog I will commit to my work out regiment. Hopefully the inches will flyyy!

Here is week 1's measurements (cringe):

Bust:         35.5in
Waist:       27.25"
Hips:      37" (junk in the trunk much??)
Knee:     14.25" (don't ask me why, I have no clue why I need to measure the knee)
Calf:          13"
Bicep:       10"
Forearm:  7.5" 
BMI:         23.48 (this will only be tracked at the very end since I do not own a scale)

(eventually I will figure out how to put it all in a pretty table)

Lets see how it goes!!


XOXOXO

V-Blog Fail!

I am ssoooo sad! I made a video blog yesterday showing all you lovely followers T & I's house (and by house I mean apartment). BUTTT our video camera was on HD mode, not standard. What does this mean? WELLLL, the file was so freaking huge I wasn't able to upload it! Not on Youtube, not on blogger or anything. I was so sad. And to top it off I left work early to wait for the ATT U-Verse tech to install our DVR. Instead of coming anytime between 1p-3p they showed up at 5. 5!

On the bright side. I got to spend the rest of my Friday night with GinaJuneee and Courtney before they go back to Idaho for school. We ate some good food, laughed so hard my abs were in pain, got my butt kicked by Just Dance, and drank some TASTYYY Boba at Lollicup.

Now I am trying to STOP procrastinating and actually write my paper. I probably should have started writing it more than a day before the due date. But what can you do?

Love you all!

Baby Steps

My lovely honey bear (T) helps around the house, but only when I ask him. But on Monday he vacuumed without me even asking which got me so excited EXCEPT, look at where he left the vacuum...


 I haven't moved it at all in hopes that he would actually put it away himself. Lo and behold 4 days later it is in the same spot he left it (actually it was on the tile and he moved it up to the carpet. For what reason? I have no clue, and let us note, the vacuum goes in that closet to the left ). At least he actually cleaned without me asking haha. Baby steps right?

Test

For some reason my blogs aren't showing up in my feed. Let me know if you can see this one!

Friday's Odds and Ends

Friday night!! It is raining so hard I can't even hear the TV (maybe I should close the window but I am far too lazy to getup) so I figured now would be the opportune time to blog a little. My moods are beginning to level out which is a really good sign! I am still blue, but I feel like I am getting a little better.

My BFFFE Courtney came over and we cooked some Hake Scampi and mixed veggies. Soooo yummy! We walked to the local coffee shop, got creeped on a Domino's delivery guy, I almost got hit by a car (apparently walking down a median is quite dangerous), found a video WORSE than Rebecca Black's (watch if you dare!)




Then we watched "Eat Pray Love" and I must say. I was soooo disappointed. WE WERE BOTH disappointed. We actually had fallen asleep. The biggest waste of 2 hours. I do think the book could be pretty good though. The movie just couldn't really develop any storyline fully so it was as bland as white rice.But I must say, James Franco was a tasty treat to look at! AND allegedly an old friend from high school's sorority sister made out with him while he was UCSB for the premier of "Your Highness"  (totally trashy, girly gossip, but omg JEALOUS MUCH?)


Anyhow. This was a good Friday. I am really going to miss Courtney when she goes back to school.

Happy weekend everyone!

Depressed?

I seriously do not know what is wrong with me. I am generally pretty happy but lately I have been having these sporadic bouts of extreme sadness. At first I thought it was because I was having a hard time adjusting to "married life" (T and I living together, sharing household duties, commuting to work & going to school) but I have gotten used to that and it's been pretty good. But I still have days where I am sad that I am alone and sad when I am with people.  I have days where I dread going to work, and dread going home. I have days where I cry myself to sleep and wake up the next morning feeling the same as the night before.

I don't know what it is. I am starting to think I am depressed but I am hesitant to believe that because my sister has dealt with depression and her episodes were much more manic and extreme than mine (she is doing much better now, she is amazing and I am in awe of all her strength given the cards she was dealt).
Part of me also thinks with my recent bouts of sadness is because of my revolving door of birth control pills (and by revolving door I mean 3 different contraceptives, 2 different pills and the patch). Maybe because I have been switching everything around lately my hormones are all out of wack.

Whatever it is I am hoping to get an answer. If it doesn't subside I think I'll talk to my doctor soon.
