Friday's Letters

Photobucket


Dear March, You have been insane for me. In the last 14 days I have worked 65 hours on top of 22 hours of school AND finals. I'm ready for a break.

Dear Blog, I had planned on posting a few times this week. Some of the posts were even so close to being finished and now I'm here on Friday, looking back wondering why I didn't just post them. With 2 weeks off of classes, you'll be seeing much more of me.. and much better posts.

Dear Sleep, I was beginning to think I didn't know you anymore. Getting an hour or two of you ever night was really starting to wear me down. So glad I was able to get 15 hours of you last night.

Dear Reggie Bush, I still don't believe you are now a Detroit Lion. I'm way too excited for you to get your number so I can spend a ridiculous amount on your jersey.

Dear Bandwagon fan girls, I feel like I'm one of you over Reggie Bush. When I see a girl that is a "huge Red Wings fan" and her favorite player is Ericsson.. It makes me want to gag. Pretend to be a fan of a player that can actually play. It's also ok to admit you just think he's hot. Hence why I'm a Lions "fan"..  I have no issue admitting that I just think Reggie Bush is hot and now I can go watch him at Ford Field and drink beer. I'm still only a hockey girl, I don't need alcohol or Reggie Bush to enjoy watching.

Dear Being 21, Everyone told me it would get old.. I always agreed. I don't mind that I don't go out. I like that I can go buy my own craft beer and stock the mini fridge with different kinds. I don't like that I rarely get carded! I never had a fake because I was too scared.. So dumb.

Dear People who don't understand my Enhanced License,  I live 30 minutes from the Ambassador Bridge, when I turned 19 (legal drinking age in Canada) I still had my passport. Once my passport expired I got my enhanced license a few months before turning 21. That thing lasts for 6 years. So obviously when I turned 21 I didn't get a new horizontal license. It's so annoying that there are people who live in Michigan and don't understand that. "Uhh.. why is it that you don't have your current I.D?"... I've even heard that some people get turned down because it's vertical.  The expiration date is clearly on there I'm just too lazy to pretend I lost mine and get a horizontal one.

Dear Friends with Benefits, You've made my favorite movies list. I watched you twice this week. Pathetic.

Dear LBZ, Thank you for actually turning all the lights off last night when I passed out on the couch. Usually you leave them all on. Now all that you need to work on is making me get up and taking my contacts out. Love you!

Dear Mind, You're all over the place. I think I realized this when I just put coffee creamer in my Mountain Dew. Ooops.

Dear iPhone, Thanks for not notifying me of text messages lately. It's always fun when people call me after sending me 6 important texts and they don't believe that "I never got you texts"... yet, it's right there in my messages.

Dear Summer, I'm okay if you cut in front of Spring.

Dear Michigan, Wednesday when I was having my second panic attack during the hour it took me to get to school.. I decided I hate you so much. I can't wait to move somewhere it doesn't snow as much.

Dear Florida, This week I considered changing my plan and moving to you. Then I remembered that in 1992 the hurricane took out some place that housed a bunch of pythons and now theres a ton of pythons and other snakes. Alligators I can handle, snakes I can not. My heart is pounding just thinking about them.

Dear Google, I'm not a fan of Google Reader leaving me. I use Google Reader often. I have been on BlogLovin' and I'm going to try to just use that.. but, it's not the same!

Dear Readers, You all are far too amazing. If you're using BlogLovin' follow me on there. I also use Feedburner. I'm not sure about either of them. But, I know I have subscribers on both. Also please feel free to add my other social media sites!

  1. My license was up for renewal a year before my 21st birthday, so for 5 years my license had a red "under 21" in bold on it. So annoying.

    I also love the movie Friends with Benefits.

Now or never... (QUICK UPDATE)

I wasn't lying when I said that I wanted to get back into blogging. However, life took multiple turns and I've been too busy to sit down at my computer and produce a decent blog post. It can't hurt to fill in anyone that still reads my blogs, but might not closely follow me on social media. After TWO years of being single and not being into the idea of dating anyone, I'm actually in a relationship. I know at the beginning of a relationship it's expected to be in the state that you feel like you've never been happier. The difference is, I've known my boyfriend for 11 years. When we were young, we'd always act like a couple. We never had a "title" back then no matter how many times we reconnected. Seven months ago, he finally moved back home. I was so excited to have him back in my life. Then I realized that I wasn't okay with just being his friend. After about 5 months of blowing him off and him giving up trying to hang out, I finally ex...

Sleepy Momma

I did plan on posting this previous week and the week before.. however, I've been so incredibly exhausted and busy. I guess that's a great way of putting, welcome to mom life! To be completely honest, I'm so happy with where I'm at in life right now. Yes, there are things that are difficult to deal with and I know some of those things will always be hard. For a while I wished that I could go back well over a year ago and made a different decision. I don't wish that now because I've grown so much and gained things I could never give up. My strength, my motivation and my happiness is at an all time high. It feels amazing. In other news...  I finally got a kitten! She's such a sassy girl, but she can be the most loving thing at times! When she wakes up and I'm next to her or when I pick her up, she grabs my cheeks and kisses me.  The bottom left photo is a result of a playful kitty that needs her nails trimmed. If you foll...

Thoughts from an ex-blogger..

My desire to get back to writing has been so strong lately. I can't seem to figure out if I want to blog again. At the same time, I REALLY want to blog again. I've found comfort in my privacy. This comfort has made me uncomfortable with openly sharing details of my life. However, blogging always was there to provide me with an outlet to express my thoughts, feelings and emotions. The people I was able to connect with through blogging was always an incredible bonus. I didn't want to blog when I realized that people that I don't want to be part of my life were reading my blog posts. During this time I also stopped being active on Twitter and Instagram. I felt that it was unfair to me that specific people were able to catch up on my life via social media. There are many issue I face with returning to my blog. I need to allow myself to step outside of my comfort zone of keeping my life private. I need to be okay with the fact that some people, that shouldn't be ...
