I'm a failure

I'm not going to lie, I'm not motivated to write this blog lately.

I have been so busy and to be honest, I am almost always on the go.

But I promise, someday soon, inspiration will come to me. And I will keep you all updated.

I'm always writing about how I have to be selfish and do things that make me happy and until this blog is something that brightens my day instead of adds to my list of things to do, I can't justify it :(

But I'll let you know when the world is right again. Thanks for always caring what I have to say! I'm going to take next week off and have an awesome time in Jamaica with my family. Until then, my loves.

XOXOX

Epic Blog Day

SO first things first: ran into a friend of a friend this weekend and she told me she got married over the summer. She knows what's up, so I hope no one thinks I'm trying to offend her but I just want to relive this story again. 

I recognize this girl and she comes over to figure out how we know each other. She tells me her name and we realize we've met a couple times through a mutual friends. So then she's like "Oh I don't go out much anymore because I got married this summer." Then my friend grabs her hand and sure as all hell she's got a princess cut diamond on there! I just held onto her hand and open-mouth stared at it for a second, while she laughed. I finally choked out an oh-my-god while my friend was the question master: "how old are you? how long have you been together? are you pregnant?" etc...Then this girl looks at me and is like "You can't decide whether to punch me in the face or congratulate me, can you?" 

YES, GIRL, THAT IS MY EXACT PREDICAMENT. WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING? 

I mean, she seems intelligent. I hope it works out for her. But whoa. There's that.

Second topic, my favorite virtual reality, Twitter has influenced my weekend. I noticed that #FictionalDeathsIWillNeverGetOver was trending, and I was inspired so here is my list: 

1-- is an OBVIOUS Mufasa. That was tragic, and terrible, and then on top of it Simba thought it was his fault, poor baby.

Being brave doesn't mean you go looking for trouble.

2--is going to have to be Dumbledore. I mean, almost all of my favorite life lessons were his insightful words.

It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live

3-- Old Yeller. Even my mom cried every time we watched it.

Best dog-gone dog in the west

4-- Lennie in Of Mice and Men... I was notorious for reading ahead all through school and I so picked the wrong day to read ahead when we read that freshman year. I was SO MAD. Like, I don't even care, you don't kill your best friend you fight like hell to defend him. But then I change my mind and I don't even know. I'm obviously still really bitter. 

We could live offa the fatta the land, George!

5-- Ellie in Up. Greatest, realest love story in Disney, and they didn't even need words. Ugh, I'm tearing up just thinking about it. So much emotion right now..

Thanks for the adventure. Now go have one of your own.

I love living in made up worlds. They're continuously better than my own. But I'm obviously really bitter with some of these writers. At least they have happy endings. :) Except for Lennie... UGH.
