Sometimes life sucks, sometimes it gets a little better.

In this little blog of mine we've gotten pretty damn real lately. I've been really honest. It's not stopping there. No, there's no news about the ex. He's still the last little boy I'd ever want to be with even if he was the last dude on earth. Not sorry, just honest. So I guess the news is, he stooped to another level and made me think even less of him. No, I didn't know that was possible. I think maybe he's finally out of my life. FOR GOOD.

I mentioned another guy I was seeing. I mentioned him explaining to me that it was no longer fair to his girlfriend. Yes, GIRLFRIEND. Another women. Not fair to her? Not fair to me. Screw it. Technically he didn't have a girlfriend the entire time we dated. He went on vacation with a friend (this chick) and came home with a girlfriend that was not me.

Saturday night almost around 2am I receive a text from my boss, "Staff meeting 10am." I responded back with a sweet, "NO." About 5 co-workers of mine responded back to the group message with something similar. I was the only on not to show up to the meeting. However, I showed up to the 1pm Lion's game fun. My boss blew it off that day. I hung out with my parents and my mom's friend who is also best friends with the guy I was seeing. 

I'm not sure if I or my mom was more surprised when dude shows up. Once everyone asked if he said a word to me, he finally reaches a bar stool down and asks how I am. Awkward hour or so. Ended with a hug and, "I see you've been a busy man." That was that. I stuck around for a while getting into details with his friend as well as having too many conversations with bar regulars. It was a rough evening for me. 

Monday I was hungover. Please remember I'm not a BLOGGER, I'm just a chick with a blog.. I can admit I was hungover. 

Tuesday night I had to work. As soon as I walked in my boss greeted me at the door and pointed to the nearest booth, so I had a seat. I quickly thought about walking out, but decided to let the lecture flow through my ears. It was interesting and I promise one day very soon I'll be able to explain it all. However, I stayed and worked. 

I had a very long talk with one of the DJs that I met through work. It was such an empowering conversation because he had recently been through similar hard times and was still dealing with the aftermath. 

Good news? I started talking to someone a few days ago. A boy I've known, but have had a little girl crush on for a while. I'm not looking for anything, so please no lectures. However, I'm still unsure how the hell he's interested in coming home and spending time with me. I say coming home because he's completely across the country for another week for work. I'm excited, but after the last guy I'm hesitant. Only time will tell... But I'm kind of just feeling like.. WAH, come home already.

I'm reconnecting tomorrow with one of my dude friends I stopped talking to because he wanted more. I think he finally realized I'm a great friend and sometimes shit doesn't work out. 

Life right now is so damn confusing. Ups and downs. Constantly. Just being as honest as I can be. At this point in my life, I can't sugar coat anything. I can't fake some fabulous fairytale life. This is my life. I'm happy with it.

  1. I don't care of you work at a bar or in an attorney's office, you don't text people at 2 in their one informing them of a meeting. You had the right idea by not going. Fuck that.

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 ...
