December 2010
This is the last day I have to really think...
Because I’m leaving you behind with 2010.

2010 ends in 2 days.
Which, the more I think about it, the weirder it seems. This year has been crazy, to say the least. But I think any year that you decide to quit your job and move (back) across the country can qualify as crazy.
I don’t have any set plans for ringing in the new year, but some possible parties have begun to surface. No matter what I do though, I know that: 1. I’d rather not leave Wicker...
I fail as a Latina/a girl in general.
I have to wonder what my boss is going to think when he realizes how much of a disappointment I am as a Latina/a girl in general.
Case in point: New bridal web site project that I’m helping overseeing and develop. When asked for my insight, I stare blankly. Then have to explain other than the logistics, I have no actual input on the concept because weddings/marriage don’t interest me....

back in Chicago.
It’s cold as balls, my car is completely buried in snow and I have to go back to work tomorrow.
But it’s nice to be home.

I can never sleep when I’m home. I’m not sure why.

For the record...
… nothing helps boost a wounded heart more than the attention of other men.
Maybe getting over you won’t be as difficult as I thought it would be.

Merry Christmas Tumblr!
I hope you all have had a lovely holiday. Since arriving back in Texas, I have:
* eaten an obscene amount of tamales (and will probably eat more after posting this) * baked my feelings and forced said baked goods on my family; the biggest hit were the Mexican chocolate cupcakes * been asked several times about my love life/no longer existent boyfriend/marriage to said non-existent boyfriend or...

I won't apologize.
For how I feel. For how I felt.
But I’m letting it all go. At 4 am, the minute I step onto the Blue Line, suitcase in hand, headphones in place… I will let it all go. I will let you go.
And I will turn my brain off. I will take this week to regroup, rethink. Remember that sometimes risks are worth taking, no matter the end result. Realize that as much as I saw myself with you, the...

I am awful at saying goodbye.
But I’ve done it enough that you’d think I would be a pro at it by now.
In related news, I get to bake my feelings in approximately 3 days.

I need to dye my hair. I need a new tattoo.
I need to do something—ANYTHING—to change how I feel right now.
I feel lost, I feel stagnant… I need a change.

My brain is NOT working today.
On any given day, I will set up a handful of “That’s what she said” jokes without meaning to. But today is extra special, because I just somehow inadvertently invited Adrian* to a pants party (which he pointed out to me after laughing). Thankfully, not to a party in MY pants per se but still… hilarious and awkward.
*For all mah new followers: Adrian is mentioned quite a...

2010 in five minutes.
So, on my every day maybe not quite as personal blog, I’m taking part in a fun little end of the year initiative called reverb10. I get a prompt every day to blog about as a way to reflect on the past year. Today’s prompt has been my favorite so far: Imagine you will completely lose your memory of 2010 in five minutes. Set an alarm for five minutes and capture the things you most want...
