Wow. I didn’t realize I was that bad.
OOPS.
Anyhoo!
You are probably wondering if I died.
I did not.
You might’ve wondered if I contracted a creepy disease.
I did not.
Or…you might’ve wondered if graduate school finally killed me.
It did. But eventually, I guess I came back to life at some point.
So…where do I start?
I can’t believe I have neglected my poor little blog for so long.
On the upside? I logged into my account today and realized I had written 70 posts before I disappeared. That impressed me a little bit.
Also? I started to read some of my old posts. And cracked myself up. So that’s always positive. At least I make myself laugh, even if no one else laughs along with me. :)
So, what have I been up to you might ask?
Well, here’s a quick rundown of my past year:
1. I finished graduate school! WAHOOOO!! That was probably the most difficult time of my whole entire life, and we will just leave it at that because, hello, this is not a depressing blog.
2. I developed an unhealthy obsession with drinking lattes after my husband bought me an espresso machine for Christmas.
3. I noticed weird spots on my teeth from drinking so many lattes. So, I whitened my teeth back to their normal state with those handy dandy Crest Whitestrips. And…then had to stop drinking my lattes. My vanity won out over my desire to drink lattes. BOO.
4. I got a new job with my new education! Now I work in a low income, high needs school with kindergarten through 8th grade kids. And I love them.
5. Brandon and I are working on writing a book together! “WHAT?”, you might say. I know, it’s crazy. We’ll just pretend that that is the reason I took such a freakishly long haitus from this blog.
6. Brandon and I are in the process of adopting. Another: “WAHOO!”
7. I had to buy “old people shoes” because my back started to hurt from standing up all day. Who am I these days? I have chosen hideous style so I could have comfortability. I have officially crossed over into Lameville.
So see…not everything was doom and gloom around here. Despite my intense burn-out phase after grad school and resulting “I hate school and work” phase, everything else has been good.
My husband is still outrageously handsome and awesome.
I still think I am hilarious and crack myself up.
I continue to believe my two dogs are my children.
And…despite my long break, I still do want to blog.
So people! Welcome me back! Because the FUNNNNN has ARRRRIVVVVEDDDDD . Again. (*clears throat*)
