If there is one new thing to know about me, it’s that I am addicted to nail polish. So, here’s the following…

Nail Polish Stash:

Purple or red/pink.

Do you have a color/texture you do not own?

What’s the one polish you always pick up to lift your spirits?
My absolute favorites are Hard Candy Mr. Wrong and Diamond Cosmetics Chainmail Charm.

What polish do you keep looking at and wondering why you haven’t gotten rid of it yet?

Only glitter.

I consider my nails basically nekkid if they don’ t have some kind of design?

There once was a time when I used to post at least three times a day on this blog. That was probably three years ago, and I have since stopped posting so much personal information online. I was so mouthy back then, too! Surprising, I know. I’m trying to get back into the groove (but really, who needs to read another John Cusack <3 post?). I’m thinking about going back to writing in real journals, but ever since Billy read my ones from middle school, maybe I should just stop writing to prevent future embarassment. In any case, let me update you on my life!

I’ve been married for a year now. We are thinking about buying a house. I have fine-tuned my ability to bargin-hunt, using my skills for evil. I applied for a job at the library in Janurary, and was hired. It is my current dream job, because seriously, it’s everything I’ve wanted in a job (Blockbuster+Barnes and Noble in one!). So, no more Five Guys. Dylan has become a domestic jungle cat, a kitten we love more than anything in the world, yet equally loathe as well.

Das ist alles.

My Michael Jackson Story

At 3:25PM EST, I told Alex at work that if Michael Jackson ever died, I would feel old. At that exact time, he was being taken to the hospital in L.A. Freak coincidence? Maybe… maybe not.

Spoooooooky!

Instead of doing something useful, I spent some time playing around with my makeup collection. For a person who doesn’t usually wear anything, I own a lot. The least I can do is put it on once a year. But I don’t know how to put on stuff, so that Bare Minerals I bought last March has been wasting away in a box. I look like the first pictures every day. This makes me wonder: Do I look blah? Would I look better if I combed my hair and put on some lipgloss instead of the go-to lip balm? Hmm.

This is a long time coming, but I just had to share this. I turned 23 years old in February, and this is how I spent it. I forgot just how gosh darn fun it was! Everyone should spend their birthday at Disney World, it’s awesome. I got in free, and I chose to go to Epcot with Billy, his parents, and Thomas. I wish I could go everyday.

I’m selfish, impatient, and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control, and at times hard to handle, but if you can’t handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don’t deserve me at my best.

-Marilyn Monroe

As of today, I am back.

Yes, I know I don’t blog much. I really should, especially since I am still alive, AND it’s been six years since I’ve started writing and I really should improve sometime soon. But no.

I’m here to tell you to watch Battlestar Galactica. Don’t question it, just embrace it before it’s gone.
