Durrrty Thirties
Tomorrow my brother enters the 20-10th decade. Yes, I have regressed because my brother turning, ahem, 30 just isn’t possible. Last weekend his girlfriend threw him a surprise party in Atlantic City, NJ. It’s not really my cup of tea (read: downfall of American society, abomination, blight on the landscape...you get the picture), but it was a lot of fun and it was nice to get some time at the ocean even if it was covered with billboards and a helicopter flew over every five seconds. Plus there was that whole private jacuzzi at the club. Ok, no, I didn’t dare get in, but still. I did hug a tree, though. Lots of pics here!

I'm Finally an Aunt!
Yay! •
One of my very best friends, Jane, gave birth to a (very big!) baby boy on Saturday. I missed his birth by two days because he just didn’t want to come out. I can’t wait to meet the new (not so) little guy.
Congratulations Jane & Charlie!

Life Lessons 6.09.08
Blabbing About Nothing • Top 10 Lists •
-Do not be alarmed if your pee is bright florescent yellow. First, ask yourself, ‘Self, did I drink a large amount of juice containing vitamin B, say blueberry juice?’ Only if the answer is no should you maybe start to panic.
-Outdoor bridal showers in 90-degree weather are a bad idea.
-Ladies: refrain from telling your coworkers you’re tired, nauseous and your boobs hurt, at least not all in one day. Rumors will circulate rapidly.
-Do not watch movies that require above-average attention skills (i.e. Syriana) when running on low sleep levels.

No Rest for the Weary
Blabbing About Nothing • Grrrr...Argh • It's All About Me •
The cat has woken me up at 2ish and 4ish the last three nights in a row. Last night she threw in a 5:30am wake up call for good measure. It has finally caught up with me and it’s not good because I can’t afford to slow down. At 5 today I have to get myself over to Ballston to pick up my car (it’s needed a bunch of work that I’ve been putting off for months). I then have to skadaddle home, grab Zoe and take her to the vet for fluids. Then I have to design a website. That’s the part that’s really going to put me over the edge. But it’s for my boss and ever since I started seeing EXBF I’ve sort of neglected anything remotely resembling a responsibility (and just about everything else for that matter). Time to suck it up! zzzzzzz What? Huh? Oh, oops, I think I feel asleep for a minute.

Neglect
Blabbing About Nothing • Blogging •
I’m definitely guilty of that. I’ve been neglecting this blog...my cat...my apartment...my knitting...my books...my bills...and the website I’m supposed to be designing for my boss. Today I’ve at least stopped neglecting my bills. It’s a lousy, rainy day so I’m taking the opportunity to take care of some things around the house as well. And now I’m not neglecting the blog anymore! But alas, I don’t have anything too exciting to say, mostly because I’m sleepy because I didn’t get to bed until 3:30am on a night when I was tired to begin with, so why not go check out Mary’s new site—it rocks!

And the answer is...
Well, you guys are no fun (except you, Yoshi and random commentator). The answer is most definitely not stress. Are none of you the least bit romantic? * sigh * Well, the reason I am not eating or sleeping or able to focus is a very good one—I’m re-dating my exbf, and having a ridiculously fabulous, giddy, happy time.

Top Five Signs...???
New game! I give you five things, you tell me what they are signs of. Ready? Go!
1. You lose the five pounds you’ve been trying to lose for over a year in one week.
2. You are far from your usual miserable self.
3. The cat is none too happy.
4. Sleep? What’s that?
5. If daydreaming was an Olympic sport, you’d go home with the gold.

Doing the Panic
Blabbing About Nothing • Grrrr...Argh • It's All About Me •
I’m about to call EXBF. The last time I talked at him was to yell at him for not dropping off my stuff like he was supposed to. That was almost exactly 13 years ago. I really hope I don’t sound like an idiot.
Update: I called him. Four and a half hours later I remember why I liked him so much in the first place. We are so much alike. (That didn’t really sound right—those were two separate thoughts...heh.) But talking to him tonight, it was like we never stopped talking. He’s really the same as he was then, but grown up.
But I’d like to know what you guys think. Can people really change? Do you make the same mistakes you made when you were 19 or 20? (Eeeps...STP is on Kimmel!) I’m never getting to sleep tonight…
