Ohhhh, Shiny!



Some days it takes me five hours to get anything done. I start something and then I get distracted and forget what i was working on and then the next time I look up, it's hours later and I haven't finished anything.

Sometimes, it's not my fault. I'll be working on something and someone will email or call and I'll have to look something up and then I'll start something else, and never get back to the original thing I was working on. Sometimes it's entirely my own fault. I'll see something shiny, or a new picture of Adam Lambert and then my mind wanders and Boom, I'm getting nothing done again.

Also, I have no willpower when it comes to spending money at a bar. I realize this and everytime I swear I'm only going to spend X amount of dollars and then the Vodka/Cranberries start going down and I'll just HAVE TO HAVE more and the next thing I know, my debit card is out and I've spent fifty dollars on drinks. Do you know how much you have to drink to spend fifty dollars at a regular bar? About 10. This weekend I spent over a hundred dollars on a turkey club, and drinks. Oh, and entrance to the strip club for me & Jason. At least I don't have a money problem at the strip club. That would be truly awful.

The Last Year...In A Nutshell



Hello! It's been almost a year to the day since I posted last! I always forget that i have this blog. I tend to think in smaller bursts lately, what with all the dead brain cells from drinking, and mostly post on Twitter and Facebook.

Since the last time we talked:

I saw Adam Lambert twice. Once in Nashville with my mom and once in St. Louis by myself. Which wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I was surprised by how friendly everyone was when they found out I was there alone. Both concerts were truly spectacular.

I drank waaaaayyyyyyy too much in the last year. Pretty much every weekend, holiday, sporting event & funeral I went to involved alcohol of some kind.

I hung out with friends, played with my cat, got my finances more securely in order, smoked a few (million) cigarettes, went to Huntsville for a birthday, and Indiana for Jimmy Buffett night at a country club. I traveled to Florida with my parents, where we mostly ate and I drank beer every single day. I had the best Halloween ever. Even though I didn't really dress up as anything. Maybe this year I'll go all out.

I celebrated birthdays with friends, family, and acquantances (Hi, Megan's brother Sean!), attended a couple of trivia nights, a game night with friends, and various other functions.

My grandma passed away. :(

I watched a lot of TV. I watched a lot of Youtube videos from Adam's Glamnation tour. I bought tons of Adam Lambert merchandise.

I wore the same shirt numerous times and had it pointed out to me numerous times.

I danced. I laughed. I cried. I puked.

It was a pretty good year.
