Fun with games.

I am: A wife, daughter, sister, friend and lover

I want: An Audi A6. In Red

I have: 4 tattoos and would love one more. I promise to stop after that!

I dislike: Mushrooms. Ick. I also don't like liars & disrepectful people.

I miss: My Grandmother Charlene every single day of my life. I also miss my sister and wish that we lived closer to each other.

I fear: Losing the people that I love.

I feel: Excited and anxious about my new job and what it holds for me.

I hear: Earth, Wind and Fire on my radio :) Doesn't get any better than this!

I crave: Some of the most unusual things on a daily basis. But mostly, I crave Chipotle.

I usually: Straighten my hair. But on rainy or humid days I let it do it's thang. Sometimes the curls are just too hard to control!!

I search: For peace and forgiveness in everyone. I believe that everyone deserves a second chance. But after that, you're done. Fool me once shame on you... fool me twice shame on me!

I wonder: What my puppy is doing right now. Probably barking his head off at people on the street... or sleeping under the bed.

I regret: Eating that lobster bisque last night. My stomach is on fire today :(

I love: sitting on the beach with an adult beverage and good Caribbean music.

I care: too much about what other people think of me.

I always: say 'I love you' and 'sweet dreams' to Eddie when we're going to bed.

I worry: about not having enough money to do all of the things we love to do.

I remember: names and faces. Always.

I believe: That life gets better with age!

I sing: really obnoxiously. Even my dog would agree.

I try not to: critique other people. It's not nice.

I don't always: listen to my husband when he is talking :) ha.

I argue: with Eddie about leaving every single light on in the house.

I write: notes on post-its all of the time.

I win: my own battles.

I lose: staring contests with Eddie. Every time!

I wish: I was in Hawaii right now.

I listen: to a HUGE variety of music. It all makes me feel so good!

I don't understand: Ignorance and racism.

I can usually be found: At work, at home, at Goodale Park, shopping, having drinks with my favorite people in the world!

I forget: my sunglasses all of the time!

I am happy: when I am surrounded by love and laughter.

Happy Spring... well, sort of!

So according to the weather man, Spring has officially sprung... but it is currently 30 degrees and snowing outside. So I am going to go ahead and call him a liar!! This is bullsh*t. If I had one wish in this world it would be to only see snow on Christmas Day. That's it. That's all that I ask for... they have machines that make snow for cryin' out loud! It was 60 degrees and lovely outside just a short 72 hours ago... and now, I am back to warming up my car prior to leaving for work. I hate it. I'm not usually one for complaining, but geesh, this crap has got to go.

On a much, much lighter note... we depart for the tropical paradise better known as Hawaii in 46 days. I am on the countdown (have been since we had 80-some days left to go). It's just at my fingertips... I can taste the salt from the ocean now! I am so excited to bask in the hawaiian sun and just relax with some delicious adult beverages and some excellent company. May 23rd is definitely taking her sweet time getting here.

Okay, so obviously I am REALLY bad at posting blogs. I guess that I normally don't have anything too exciting to share... besides, I am pretty sure that only Jamie and Kat read my blogs :( But that's okay... I love you both - oh totally off the subject, CONGRATULATIONS Kat and Jonathan on your engagement! I am so happy for the both of you. Okay, now where was I?! Oh yes, how horrible I am keeping up with my blogs...

So in my last blog, which was February 15th, I talked a lot about the Training Coordinator position that I had interviewd for the week prior... well, I got the job!! I have been in the position since March 16th and I absolutely love it. I love the atmosphere and the projects that are in store for me. I am still getting acclimated with the department. I officially have my own office, with a door (not invisible anymore) that I can actually shut!! Holy hell... I love it. I am looking forward to doing new things and working with lots of different people. Yay for me!

I am still working out - although I have slacked tremendously over the last 2wks. I went last night and my legs are oober sore. Like I can barely cross them at this very moment. I see no results and that definitely plays a part in my "slacking" funk. I am an 'instant gratification kinda girl... I want results and I wanna see 'em now! Ugh, the things that women go through :)

Married life is fabulous and I couldn't be happier (I can't believe that we've been married nearly one year already!!). I am married to the absolute love of my life and my best friend. I wish that everyone was as lucky in love as I am today! Unfortunately, some people think that settling is better than being alone. Little do they realize just how lonely they are by settling... think about it. Life is too short... I spent 4yrs of my life in an unhappy relationship and vowed to myself after the relationship ended that I would NEVER allow myself to become "that girl" ever again. My momma raised me better than that. If it meant being alone for the rest of my life, then so be it. It would have been worth being alone and being happy with myself than spending my time miserably with someone whom I didn't even truly love. I have always loved the quote "Life is what happens while you're making other plans". So true! The love that I feel for Eddie is indescrible. He lights up my life and I couldn't imagine anyone else to grow old with. I sit here and listen to friends complain about their sucky love life and how they just want to leave but are scared to. OMG, just do it already and move the heck on with your life. I could literally sit here and write a novel on how I feel about stupid girls when it comes to love... But instead I will say this:

"If you want your life to be a magnificent story, then begin by realizing that you are the author and everyday you have the opportunity to write a new page".

Ciao, for now...
