Saturday
This Saturday, the day after tomorrow, I am leaving Lola with a babysitter for the first time. EVER.
Okay so it isn’t a complete stranger. It’s my absolute best friend, who I trust more than my own family, but holy crap y’all. I haven’t been away from my babe more than two hours and she’s always had my husband around. Now I have to put on my big girl underwear and...
Today I failed
Let me set the scene for you.
Lola and I were at a playground. Enjoying a day of running around, climbing, squealing and trying not to die of heat stroke. Kids were everywhere playing while there parents either watched on attentively and still socializing, or completely ignored their children so they could talk Bon Bons and soap operas. One little boy, immediately singled Lola out. He stood in...
Movies
I’m making a list of movies I want to buy for Lola.
What movies do you think I should add to the list?

Amazing toy store
Today on my excursion through the hidden stores of Savannah, I found the most amazing toy store ever!
They had all my favorites from my youth! I spent a good amount of time drooling. I have a feeling Justin’s paycheck will be blown in that store very,very soon!
I’ll post more pics when I’m not on my cell phone.

I wish i would have never gotten married. I love my husband and never want to be with anyone else, but i think getting married wasn’t something that we needed to do.

I was raped by a high school classmate the night before my first college law class.
Pancit
A good family friend gave me her pancit recipe and despite my awful, awful cooking skills, I am going to attempt to make it.
I figure the hubs needs better meals and I am the housewife, so I guess I should get my ass in the kitchen.
True story
I’m lying in bed lurkin the net and my husband is snoring right beside me. All I can think about is how badly I want to push him off the bed. It’s good for a laugh or two.

I have absolutely no friends in Savannah.
The only friends I have are in my hometown.
I guess Lola and the husband are enough for me up here cause I really could care less about the people I have met so far. Maybe I just need a better selection of folks to come across my path. Maybe I need to stop being a hermit.

This is how we party.
We are serious geeks in this house.
Today I bought my husband a Wall-E toy so he can take it apart and make it into an autonomous robot.
So instead of going out to a bar or going to a show, we’re sitting at home, playing with Wall-E.
Matching
Lately Lola loves cats. Last week it was dogs, this week cats. Now she goes around the house looking for anything with a cat on it, points and says “CAT!!”
My kid is smart y’all!

The show Rescue Me cracks me up. It’s such a random and odd show to like, but I love how dysfunctional everyone is.

I grew up in an extremely violent household. Many of my childhood memories revolve around seeing my mom beaten, strangled, yelled at. My mom was also verbally and mentally abusive to everyone. I have a lot of built up anger and resentment towards my parents. To this day I can honestly say I do not respect my mother, and any “love” I have towards her is out of obligation. I have so many...

In high school this guy wouldn’t stop messing with me or my stuff during class. Finally I snapped and grabbed him by his neck and slammed him into a brick wall and cursed him out. I may have even threatened to kill him.
Fortunately for me, my teacher at the time was passed out from drinking his morning cup of whiskey so I was never punished. After that everyone pretty much left me alone.

My best friend Lear gave me a doll one year for my birthday. His name is Dead Baby Davie. He has his eye gouged out,lashings, scrapes from being dragged and stomped on the ground, and fake blood drawn on. Lear cut holes in his head to stick candles in and even lit them so I could blow them out. My friend, also drew some other things on Davie that would have all you tumblr folks in an uproar....

My freshman year of college I made a road trip to Ginnie Springs to camp with a bunch of friends.
I ended up getting trashed and eating a bunch of chocolate shrooms. It was the first and only time doing so, but it was one of the best weekends of my life.
I remember laying in the woods on the ground tripping so hard I thought I could see the trees growing. Like time laps photography growing....

I dropped out of college soon after my mom was diagnosed with MS. Everyone thought it was to go home and help her and part of it was, but mostly, I just was tired of wasting my time taking law classes. I didn’t want to be a lawyer.
Secretly I’d always wanted to be an art teacher instead. Now I believe it’s to late to pursue anything like that.

I have never been attracted to anyone who wasn’t caucasian.
I have no problem with interracial dating or marriage, I just have never met a man from another race that have been attracted to.
Gwen Stefani kids clothes for Target.
Weeeeeeeeee!
I’m a big Gwen Stefani fan. Partially because I grew up listening to No Doubt. Now she is going to be designing babies and kids clothes for Target and I can’t wait to see what I can buy for Lola.
How much more of a loser can I become?! :D

I am a nose picker.
I hate feeling like my nose is stuffy. I especially hate if I have boogers and they are the hard kind that hurt when you itch your nose. If I can’t find/ get to a tissue I will pick my nose. I carry hand santizer with me partially because of my awful habit.
Confession bandwagon

When I was young, maybe seven, I punched a kid in the face because he took my swing. My brother witnessed this an instead of flipping out on me, he threw sand in the boy’s sisters eyes.

Quote of the day
“I’m a stay at home mom. I go to the park and the grocery store.”
-me talking to a car dealer about how often I drive my car
Currently
I am at the park being followed by a swarm of ducks and geese. I think they want to gouge out my eyes.
You know your a parent when..
You are watching Sesame Street and grumbling about how Sesame Street was so much better when you were growing up. This new shit sucks.
I just discovered Lola’s top and bottom molars on one side are showing.
This explains everything.
Netflix
For a while now I have been debating if Netflix is worth having. Yes it’s cheap and yes you can get a lot of movies for a mere 10 bucks, buck lately the instant play selection has been getting worse and worse. Now that the price is being jacked up I don’t know if I want to keep it. I don’t have DVDs mailed to me at a rate that would warrant it being more cost effective and in...
Three years
I realized tonight that I have been cigarette free for three years. I stopped cold turkey because I promised Justin that when he returned from Iraq I would quit. When he returned I finished my last pack and stopped cold turkey. Best thing I have ever done.
My husband has been on the phone all day telling my dad how to work his PS3. Its annoying and amusing at the same time. My dad loves my husband and is like a kid in a candy store because he can’t wait to play games with him online. I think Lola and I might have lost the hubs forever.
Bring on the questions

MRI+TBI
Sitting at the hospital waiting for the husband to have his MRI. I don’t see how people don’t freak the fuck out when getting scans like these done. I’d be laying there waiting to hear I had a tumor the size of saturn and I have seconds to live. Yeah, i’m dramatic like that. I’m also terrified of all things hospital related. Oi

And Celia’s second birthday! In order to celebrate our little Celia turing a whopping 2 years old, I’ve decided to do a giveaway! And it’s a doozy! Being the jeweler and gemologist that I am, it better be! I purchased these stones a while back for myself (from a dealer in NYC that works almost…
AH! LOVE THESE!
Google+
So I have ventured onto Google+ and I must say I really like some of its features. It took me about 24 hours to get in because of its limited release but it wasn’t a big deal to check in throughout the day to see if it was open. I would just check it whenever I checked Tumblr.
Being able to put people in different circles and pick who sees what was my big seller. Some things I just...

For the record
You all were right. The drinking game had me wasted in no time.
