What a FAILURE

I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. 

I'm sorry?

So, I've been a total epic failure of a blogger and I'm sorry about that. But as you all know, life happens, and then you forget to blog, and then you remember and you have anxiety because once you do blog, it had better be good, because what the hell else have you been doing all these weeks? And then you talk yourself out of it because it can't possibly be good or funny and will surely disappoint. And this fucked mental cycle goes on for like six weeks until it's just embarrassing and you have to write to the 3 poor suckers who still check your blog every once in awhile to see if you're alive. 

We'll, I'm alive. Fear not. 

In a nutshell, and I figure this is a legitimate excuse for not blogging, but I am MOVING! No, not out of Houston. The exact opposite as a matter of fact. I just signed my life away to 12 more months in the Bayou City. Apartment searching in Houston was pretty interesting. First of all, for apartments in Houston, you have three choices: 1. Live in a rough area, fear your life, dwell amongst rapists and murderers 2. Commute one hour or more to and from work every day, spend 1/3 of your life in traffic or 3. pay one million dollars a month in rent. 

Can you guess which one I chose?

ONE MILLION DOLLARS, plus utilities. 

Needless to say, my social life may be severely compromised but hey, I'll have a kick ass apartment that I'll never be able to afford to leave. NEVER.

OK, that was negative. In reality, I'm super pumped about the new digs. Most importantly, I'm excited that nothing about the apartment reminds me of this.

A good friend of mine has been harassing me about blogging, well, since my last post, and in an attempt to get my lazy ass back into creativity mode, she sent me one of those uber cheesy questionnaires we all used to fill out in middle school. Idiot. After sitting on it for a couple weeks, I thought eh, what the hell? My readers probably can't be any more disappointed with me. So, here goes. 

What did you realize today?
It's payday. And almost none of that money is going to clothing, vacations or alcohol. Can I get an amen?

Name one person who made you smile today?
The Lego man my little brother sent me via iPhone picture text last night. Little kids are so tech savvy, did you know that? Did you know there was a recent study that said kids learn the ins and outs of a computer and/or smart phone before they learn how to tie their shoes?

His photography skills aren't great, but isn't that charming? It's two face.


What were you doing at 7:45 this morning?
Scrambling around to get out the door and not be late to work. I was late. Much later than my time card reveals.

Who is the last person to send you a message on myspace?
MySpace? Didn't they go under?
 
Do you have a tan?
I have vowed to stop indoor tanning, but lucky for me, Houston is 70 degrees in February so as long as I keep up my lunchtime runs, I can keep a bronze glow. But you betchur ass once it gets 80 degrees I will be worshiping the sun. I can't help myself.
 
Has today been rough? 
Meh.
  
Do you use chapstick?
If by 'use' you mean bathe in, Burt's Bees and Aquaphor.

Are you jealous of anyone right now?
Jealousy looks good on no one. 

What is the last movie you watched?
Black Swan. And all I gotta say is, WTF.
 
How did you get your worst scar?
Colon resection surgery. Yep, bet you didn't think you'd learn that about me today.

Do you miss your past? 
Part of me wishes I could be 8 years old again.
 
Do you have a big family?  
Let's see. 46 first cousins on my mom's side. Another 25+ on my dads side. A plethora of aunts, uncles, and now little perfect baby second cousins. Big isn't the word.
 
What color are your eyes?
Brown

How is your hair? 
In a ponytail.
 
Have you ever been awake for 48 hours straight?
Hell to the no. I'm far too dramatic for that.

Where was your default picture taken?
At a bar. I hate how cliche that is.
 
What's your favorite number?
8, always 8.

Water out of a leopard cup. Exotic.

Getting the keys to my new apartment. Those were some expensive keys.
 
This time last year, can you remember who you liked? 
I'm not sure I'm enjoying all these questions surrounding 'like.' Makes me feel like this survey was pulled from AIM circa 2001.
 
Two days from now this time, where will you be?
Sunday at 10am? I will be at Mass.
 
Do you think anyone has feelings for you? 
Boyfriend does. Dreamy.

Do you have a best friend to lean on?
Many. I have the greatest friends.
