Halloween!

Happy Halloween!!!!!

It's been a while since I've blogged. I don't know how many people actually read this, or even noticed, but sorry anyways. I've been pretty busy with school, and then I got sick with God-knows-what, and I'm still trying to get better. My throat felt like this: 

 My ears felt like this:

And this was me:

That poor sad blanketed girl in the picture was NOT drawn by me. I took it from Allie Brosh's blog at hyperboleandahalf.blogspot.com so I don't want to take the credit for it. Her page is strictly enforced by the copyright monster, so here's to hoping this satiates his hunger. Seriously though, her blog is hilarious, and you need to go look at it now!CLICK HERE FOR RAINBOWS AND AWESOME CAKE


Anyways, on to the Halloween part of the blog. I didn't get to carve a pumpkin for the past couple years, which is pretty sad. This year I was determined to carve an awesome pumpkin, like something along these lines:

Also, Star Wars FTW.


Unfortunately, my only carving tool was a very dull steak knife, making it super hard to carve even the most simple of faces.  Anyways, here's the final result:

I named him Jack. I have a squirrel that I named Gilbert that comes to my back porch to drink out of an old basin (failed at growing a water lily). I'm hoping Jack and Gilbert become best of friends.

So, that's it for this short Halloween blog. Everyone go get candy, be safe, and have fun!

Along Came A Spider

Today, I slayed a spider.


It went a little something like this...

 

As soon as I saw the fangs, it was war. After a minor freak-out.

BRING IT.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is when I killed a spider. In cold blood.

Weddings

I have a lot of friends getting married in a rush, recently. There are two main reasons people get married with little to no engagement period. I give you the Vegas scenario.

This really bears no explanation... You drink too much and decide, in a drunken moment of spontaneity, to take advantage of one of the many chapels nearby (You can even get married by Elvis!)

Now for the second, and most applicable, situation. The desperate attempt to hide a baby bump.

Seriously, dudes. We can do the math. If you're pregnant, fine, just own up to it. I'm not against premarital sex and we all know there's that 0.1 percent that you COULD be a part of. Whatevs. Just don't jump into a wedding just to try to prolong the inevitable for a couple more months. That baby ain't a preemie at 8 pounds. What? Surprise, you got pregnant on the honeymoon? Yeah, right. Nice try.

This especially bugs me when people get overly defensive over the subject when people have guessed that they are indeed pregnant. Never being straightforward and accepting or denying it, these people branch the conversation off into other random areas until it seems they can physically avoid the subject no longer. *sigh* 

I can't wait to say I told you so.

Tennis

I suck at tennis. 

I can usually hit the ball and I can aim it in the general direction of where I want it to go. Half the time it's a swing and a miss, but whatever. It's fun and even though I suck I think I'm getting better.

I like to think I look like this when trying to hit the ball. Note the utmost level of concentration.

What Grinds My Gears

Ya wanna know what grinds my gears...?

• Loud stereotypical bimbos partying across the street from me. I shouldn't be able to hear you when you're INSIDE a different building.
• Cocky nerds with no social life on Halo. I'm a nerd, but I have a social life and I don't rub every kill in my opponent's face.
• Again on the Halo note, people who think it's awesome to teabag after every kill. "It's soooo Halo 3" ~Tim.
• People who continuously break up and get back together with their significant other every few days and always post the changes on Facebook. We get it. You're not emotionally stable. But you're clogging up my newsfeed.
• People who mourn and lament their recent breakup on Facebook. That sucks but again, you're clogging up my newsfeed.
• People who quit their job with no new job or any type of income to fall back on, yet they constantly spend their money on things that are not at all necessary like jewelry and makeup. What is wrong with you?

I sound like a heartless bitch. In fact, a friend recently told me I'm a very angry person. As if she knows what I'm feeling inside. Anyways, I completely disagree with this. Why? Because I never release any of this so-called anger towards anyone or anything. Apparently I've put up a million walls to my friends and family since I've moved. Yeah. Because I'm never the one who initiates contact with everyone. (Sarcasm, in case you didn't notice). But I don't care. People think what they want to think.

Here's a picture of what I apparently look like to everyone else.

Really?
