A walk to remember...

I think I had the most embarrassing moment of my entire existance...

I am walking to the University Library completely consumed by the thoughts in my head. Oh if people only knew what goes on in my head most of the day...ANYHOW not important....Consumed. Thats what I was consumed. I managed to walk up a flight of stairs. Still talking to myself I guess when BAM!!!! It took me a second to realize what I had just done. I missed the the automatic slide open doors and walked into glass face first. When I hit the glass I bounced back and almost fell into this guy. My nose is bleeding, blood is rushing to my head because I am so embarrassed when the most embarrassing part happened. The conversation I had with this guy:

Random Guy: Are you ok?

Me: I am fine. (relieved that he wasnt laughing yet) Just really embarrassed. I hope I never see you again!

Random Guy: Oh my God! That was like something from a movie. I didnt think things like that actually happened!

How does someone run into glass. As the day progressed more things happened. But not as severe as that. I was drinking gatorade in class and the gatorade started coming out the side of my mouth and dripping down my cheek. DRIPPING DOWN MY CHEEK! At the end of class I got up from my desk and slightly tripped over it. I got home and almost tripped over the curb. I am about to start taking bets on whether or not I am going to be struck by lightening!

Ok on to better things. Yesterday was Fire Crotch and my anniversary. Just 2 years. But he bought me the perfect gift! I am not really too traditional and as far as surprises go I can usually guess what my presents are before any holiday. Fire Crotch is always annoyed by the guessing. He thinks he cant surprise me. So he actually surprised me yesterday. Which is quite an achievement. My parents and my sister P have been trying for years. He bought me a vibrator! lol Romantic no. Thoughtful abso-fucking-lutly! I had been saying I needed a new one for a long time. But I have been so caught up in other things and money has been a little tight I just didnt go get one. So anyhow this is like the most amazing piece of equipment. Different speeds, different vibration pattern, its pink AND has glitter! Its perfect! I love this man. Oh I also got a card, flowers, and dinner....But the new and improved Pinky is just an awesome gift!

Not too shabby...

Life is ok again...I think.

My mom finally came around and is embracing the Hawaii idea. So Hawaii here I come. Well not until October but Im still coming! It actually took a little more convincing. I have to host a small dinner for immediate family and our closest friends in celebration of our marriage. Not a bad trade off. The best news is I wont be $10,000 in debt.

Today I made some pretty good cupcakes. (twisted panties has rubbed off on me!) The cupcakes were chocolate cheesecake. Very rich, sweet, and NOT diet friendly. I personally delivered some to twisted panties and my sister P. While at twisted panties' apt I tried to perfect my plan to steal her dogs. The cupcakes were purposely brought for distraction. I am sure she has told you about them. They are too cute. I think I can fit Ollie (the dachsund) under my sweater, but Baxter (the boston) he will be a little harder to walk off with. They will be mine Twisted Panties...Oh yes they will be mine. (what show/movie is that line from, hmmmm?????)

Finally I just thought I would share the picture of my Cuatro Leches bday cake baked by twisted panties...IT WAS DELICIOUS!!!! I wont tell you how many pieces I ate, but I will say that it made an excellent hangover breakfast!

His name is Scottie and he is posing with his very best friend Duckie. This pic was taken yesterday morning. As you can see Scottie and Duckie sleep together. Scottie is a little over a year old and has a very interesting personality. He and I have an understanding....as long as he doesnt destroy my apt, I wont touch Duckie. I think it works!

Valentine Day Massacre....

I woke up this morning to a lovely bouqet of lilies (my favorite..not a big fan of roses), chocolates, a beautiful card, and the cutest bear. My firecrotch (fiance) is wonderful. So far so good...right?

Wrong again!

I spoke to my mother this morning about my "wedding day" options. I explained to her the situation, and how hawaii was sounding like a good idea. What does she reply? "Thats stupid!" Thats right everyone my mother said its a stupid idea. What am I supposed to do? I cannot afford this wedding any longer. Well of course she had more to say. She said "Dont you want a pretty dress and pictures. We want to be there. What about getting married by a pastor?" So after she went on and on about that she followed this up with "why dont you get married in your sister's house?" Now for those of you who have read twisted panties' blog you are familiar with my sister "P". You know this isnt the way I wanted my wedding to be. P if your reading this I would never ask you to get married at your house. :) Nervous breakdown is almost here. I wish all of this would just go away. I dont feel like my mother took my feelings into consideration, and perhaps thats what hurts me the most right now. So now Firecrotch and I have lots of thinking to do.

On a lighter note....

Hope everyone has a Happy Valentines Day!

MISSING IN ACTION

So yes I have been missing in action. Does anyone want to know why? Anyone? Nope didnt think so but who cares I am letting it all out anyway....

First of all, I am over-consumed in my classes like I have been for 95% of my life. Anatomy of the Human Skeleton...YUCK! I have taken 5 chemistry courses, countless of bio courses (from genetetics to microbiology), every math you can think of and I have YET to have a course as difficult as Anatomy Of the Human Skeleton. I wish I could show you my exam. He basically hands you a bone fragment and says "You have 20 seconds to tell me where this belongs and what it articulates with" YIKES! Even worse his study guide had over 100 key terms and bones....Now ask me how many questions were on there? Go ahead ask me....20!!!!!! Thats right 20 questions. So I basically over-studied, over exhausted myself, lost what felt like a decade of sleep for 20 questions. I do have one good thing to say about this class, my professor is HOTTTTT and officially Twisted Panties new neighbor. Now I am an engaged woman but eye candy can be quite pleasant. Definately satifies my sweet tooth!

Moving on....

I was offered a FANTASTIC job! This is the opportunity of a lifetime. A salary I never dreamed of making and connections for the future. My friends and family are really excited for me. Perfect right? Wrong!! I dont exactly know what is happening to me. I am not excited. All of a sudden I look at my academic career and feel like I have made a terrible mistake. I will have 2 degrees soon, a great job, but an incredible sense of failure. All of my life my father has pushed me towards the direction Im in. He chose my career. Made sure to pick the "safe" stable way to go. You have to believe me when I say that I had every intention of following my dreams, but it suddenly just became too hard. I didnt want to fight anymore. So I let the undertow take me along the path that had been chosen for me. Sounds ridiculous, a grown woman still doing what her daddy says is right. Well now I look at it all and feel like things should have been different. I should have fought that fight. All this time I blamed my father, but truth be told I was a coward. Regrets, Regrets, Regrets....What could I have done with my life? Couldnt tell you. I am not even sure I could tell you what my likes and dislikes are. I feel programmed. Maybe I should take a step towards self discovery. WOW sounds cheesy. I sound like I need a spot on Dawson's Creek. lol

Finally...My wedding...

Ok so a few days ago I recieve a call from my future mother-in-law with some interesting news. Now you need some background information. My future in-laws graciously offered to pay for mine and my fiances wedding. HOWEVER....a few days ago the bomb was dropped on me that they will not. My wedding is supposed ot take place in October...DEPOSITS HAVE BEEN MADE....PAYMENTS HAVE BEEN GIVEN....So I now have an incredible sense of panic taking over me. What do I do? I cant afford a $12000 wedding. Atleast not right this second. I dont start my new job for a few months. My fiance suggests that we get married in Hawaii just the two of us. But I cant help but to picture the disapponted faces of my mom and dad...even my little brothers and sisters. WHAT A MESS!!! It is a lose lose situation. I get married in Hawaii my dad wont walk me down the aisle and my mom wont be there...I attempt to pay off this wedding...I lose an entire down payment on a house( or whatever I would have used that money on!! I think I am going to have a nervous breakdown! AND THIS IS MY BDAY WEEK...BREATHE BREATHE! I have no idea what I should be doing. I need sanity. I want to tell my mom but I just dont know how...

So thats the way the cookie crumbles fellow bloggers. Please forgive me for my long absence. I had forgotten how good it felt to let it all out and send this through this endless information hwy. Its like yelling at the top of a mountain. If anyone reads this ANY ADVICE HELPS....
