How Losing 40lbs Made People Hit On Me

thepersonunderisstillthesame

There are a lot of universal truths in life.  You know, the fact that it’s easier to get a job when you have a job, the toast will always land butter side down, and apparently, guys are all about looks. Let me explain.  In the past couple months I’ve been working out.  You can read about why I’ve been working out over here but it’s definitely not to get the attention of guys.  I have dropped around 41lbs, and definitely slimmed down, although [Click Comments To Continue]

A Blog Vacation – Otherwise known as “Why I’ve Been a Slacker”

vacationdefined2

Eurymakos constantly tells me that he’s jealous of my prolific writing, and how I can write about anything.  Unfortunately, lately, I haven’t felt that muse touching on my shoulder, or really any part of me.  The things that I want to write about, the things that I’m thinking, I really can’t.  I wish I could tell you guys how frustrated I am over various things with various friends, but I’ve promised not to blog about them. I can’t really write [Click Comments To Continue]

You Would Not Believe What That Bitch Did Now…

No seriously, you won’t believe it because it never happened.  There wasn’t a bitch who did anything. But I’m guessing all of you who tuned in were super excited for some drama to read weren’t you? You see, I was sitting at Panera with Mahryh and we were discussing my blog, specifically the fact that I post drama on my blog and apparently I’m fairly well known for it.  (To the point where it has been brought up as a marketing tool with other [Click Comments To Continue]

How To Handle Bad News

Yes - all of this, for about $12.  E.L.F rocks!

This morning I woke up to some pretty bad news.  Well, not bad news, more news that made me go WTF at the people I used to associate with.  So, how did I handle this? 1.  Wake up your roommate and best friend and chain smoke on the balcony while talking about life for a while.  I realize from this that I am truly, truly blessed to have Katina in my life and I’m glad that the damage I did while I was dating [redacted] wasn’t permanent   Mostly [Click Comments To Continue]

It’s Never Too Early To Put Up a Christmas Tree

I think it’s time to admit it. I’m depressed. The weird thing about being depressed at this particular moment in my life is that I have absolutely no reason to be.  On the outside, everything is going so well that I should be over the moon with excitement.  My book has sold an obscene amount of copies for being self-published, I have many side jobs that I’m doing to bring in money, and I have some amazing friends in my life who are supportive, [Click Comments To Continue]

Adventures in Hurricane #Sandy

IMAG0165

I don’t think there’s a single natural disaster that scares me.  I want to go snowboarding on a volcano. Tornadoes are kinda fun.  Earthquakes are just Earth’s way of shaking things up.  Blizzards are my kind of storm and hurricanes?  They’re just a little rain!  There’s probably something wrong with me that I don’t have a healthy respect for this kind of stuff.  I mean, the worst I’ve ever been scared was at the beach with Amr and the waves [Click Comments To Continue]

(Mary said I should have entitled this post:  ”Reasons I Don’t Want To Live On The Planet Anymore”) Yesterday, my facebook blew up.  I was going to take a bunch of screen caps and post the valid points of the conversation but instead, I decided to make it public for all of you to see:  View the thread here For those of you who don’t want to scroll through the massive wall of text, I’m going to pull out and highlight some of Brooke’s comments [Click Comments To Continue]

This Weekend was a Strange Weekend

coming_soon_fantasia

First, I am warning you this a wall of text about my weekend.  It is mostly a blog post to get everything out there because I don’t know how to process it in my head. The weekend started with Eurymakos and I in a fight about my blog post on Friday.  Then, it continued with another shit day at work (which I won’t get into) and an awkward dinner with a friend of mine.  So finally I get done with all of that and call Mary up because it’s her birthday [Click Comments To Continue]

The Level of #Apathy Has Reached All Time Highs

apathy_poster

I have reached a milestone I thought I would never reach.  I have become one of the people I constantly bitch about.  I am apathetic.  This isn’t just a temporary thing either – I can feel it settling over me like a warm blanket and I cling to it like it’s the only thing that will keep me sane. It started a month or so back with politics.  I got tired of talking about it.  Both the candidates sucked and I didn’t see the point discussing [Click Comments To Continue]
