Getting to Know You! Getting to Know All about You!

So I thought for this posting, I'd do a kind of getting to know the blogger post thing (Cause I have nothing else to post about but I feel like I haven't written in ages).
So here we go!

I'm quieter in real life then you might expect from reading my blog. But i am working on getting outside my comfort zone. Slowly but surely.

I prefer Thanksgiving to Christmas, food>presents.

My family is Irish, Italian, and German (I think I might have already addressed this).

I love to reread books.

I love getting new clothes, but I hate shopping and spending money.

That being said, I bout 3 new shirts online last night.

The sole on my favorite pair of black heels is so worn, I have slipped twice and nearly injured myself wearing them. Yes, I do still wear them. I have large-ish feet so finding shoes is rough.

I'm a dog person, and after college is done and I have my own place, I plan to adopt a Carin Terrier. Already have the rescue I'll go to picked out!

My uncle looks like a pirate.

I have been in a car accident. I was driving. I was 21. I was sober. It was my birthday. It was in front of a volunteer fire house.

Many of the shows I used to watch were crime dramas, but they began to mess with my head and make me paranoid. Now I watch Doctor Who and Glee :)

I feel rather certain that I will not find my certain someone while living where I am, so I've stopped looking. He's out there, but it won't be until after college, I feel rather certain about that.

Some of my biggest pet peeves are: people who don't text back, douche bags, people who are vague with pertinent information, teenagers in 'love', being ignored, being used, guys who talk on their phone while on a date, people who label me as 'ignorant' homophobic' or as a bigot.

I am a Christian and I do my best to live a life that points to my Savior :)

Monkeys scare me.

Ditto with robots.

Unlike most of the people left in this house, I do not care for peanut butter.

I am allergic to strawberries, not enough that I would die if I ate one, I'd just feel weird. And my lips would itch. Gross.

I love dressing up, but rarely get an opportunity to.

I can rationally discuss comic books, know weather a hero/villain is in DC/Marvel, know which characters are friends foes and lovers, and know approximately when they came into the scene and most major plot points.

I'm a Ravenclaw, Water Bender, Blue Lantern. Props if you get the references.

Ham and pineapple are my favorite pizza toppings.

I like hockey, but not enough to care about stats. Naw, I'm only in it for the cute boys.

My coworker thinks Josh Groban and I would make a cute couple. I am inclined to agree. So if anyone knows Josh...could you tell him for me? Thanks.

A Very Potter Musical is my favorite musical ever. Look it up on youtube.

Ok that's enough. I don't want to turn any of you into stalkers now!
And I have a paper to write. Sigh.

I Must Always Use My Powers For GOOD, Not EVIL

I am a skilled facebook stalker. I won't even TRY to deny it. I checked out my last boyfriends profile before we even met (OK, it's not that creepy, my friend wanted me to meet him so I checked him out before OK-ing a meeting.)! I keep tabs on my friends ex's and old friends, people having babies, and people in and out of relationships. But there is one person I really REALLY shouldn't check up on.

One of my brother's ex-girlfriends.

Out of respect of said brother I will not specify which brother this happened to; and if the female in question was not in the armed forces I wouldn't HESITATE to post her full name so you could all go see the slut. Yeah I really don't like this person.

Hurt me and I'll get over it. Hurt my friends and I'll want to hurt you. Hurt my family and I'm out for blood.

I won't retell the whole gory story, suffice to say, she is a life ruiner who screwed up a kid who was already having problems on his own. She would accuse my brother of cheating on her, while in the same breath telling me about this awesome guy she knew. How he was there for her, how he was so sweet, so supportive, so handsome. Girl, I am SLOW not STUPID.

They would break up, get back together, break up, get back together. They carried this on for several years until one night when I got a phone call from her. Please know, I didn't hate her at this point, she was crazy, yes, but the storm was only just beginning. We would hang out, text, talk on the phone, and were...well, friends. So, this night of the phone call, I had two friends over for a sleep-over and we were watching Beauty and the Beast. I answer, and it was her. In tears. She chokes out that they had broken up and she thought he cheated on her and she just was so sad and so hurt and bla bla bla. I tried to comfort her for like, an hour while my friends waited for me to finish the movie. Was AWKWARD. When I heard from my brother a few days later, he was sad, and gave me an entirely different story. To this day, two and a half years later, I don't know what happened or who is telling the truth.

They never got back together after that. I never saw or heard from her after that call. But then things started to get weird.

A few moths after they had given their stuff back and most contact was severed...she began dating. She began dating the guy she would tell me about while accusing my brother of cheating. "Huh, that's odd" I thought. About a month later, they were freakin' ENGAGED! About 7-8 months after she had finished things, yeah she was engaged. Now I'm sure you're thinking this is all bad, but no I'm not DONE yet! Since they were both in the military, things had to move faster. But then he got orders to deploy. They were married within the week. Yeah.... I mean I do understand, especially since he then deployed like two weeks later. But they were living together before the wedding, so it's not like they needed to get hitched so they could enjoy some married people fun before a year+ separation....anyways

I kicked her off my facebook friends list sometime within this whole debacle, before they were married I know, but I'm not sure where in the whole time line. Imagine my shock when I saw everything that I had missed! Slut slut slutty McSlutslut!

All this brings me to TONIGHT! Lalala! Whenever I creeped on her profile, I would always check around for references to my brother, and yeah they were there. But today's set my 'raging protective sister' instincts into overdrive. Someone had commented that they didn't know she was married (Umm, dude? Where have you been??). She responded that yeah she was married and 'thank god it wasn't to [insert my brothers name here]!!!' Oh. My. Stars. Girl, I place a lot of the blame for my brothers current behavior, on you and how you treated him! ROAR! SISTER SMASH WHORE'S BRAINS!




I really don't like her.


Blaaa stress eating. Sigh. Calm down. Serenity now. It's over. As much as what she did to him bothers me, I don't appreciate how she made me her friend, got me to trust her, then did this to my brother. Such a mess. But they all made their own choices, and get to live with them. And despite all the anger directed at her, I do see that this was also his fault. He is too trusting, too easy to take people at their word. He won't always let us help him, which is silly. that's why God gives you siblings!

Kids, when your parents tell you not to date someone, listen to them! They really are smarter then you, and you really are just an idiot!

He still has a lot to get over with all this, but he's gonna be ok. And that enough for me. And the next girl to get close to him had better watch out for crazy sister if she shows signs of treating him like this.


Sigh. One last thing before I go find more food, as much as I don't like this person, I would never wish ill on her. As I said at the start, she is in the armed forces (granted a different branch now, she got kicked out of one and switched to another. Haha!) and I do have respect for her and her husbands sacrifice. If I saw her I'd probably just ignore her. I have no use for her...well other then raising my blood pressure haha.

Also I apologize that my last two posts have shown more of my crazy side then I'd like, hopefully next one will be more sunshine and puppies for you!

Anyone else seeing a lot of breakups lately? Four people I know have split up in the past week. Sheesh! What's going on?!? Makes me happy to be single!

For REAL?!

Four years.


You were with her for FOUR YEARS!! How DARE you do this to her?!? She is my Bestest Friend, and you broke her heart, you insignificant tiny man. You gave no indication, no sign that this was coming. Her family and true friends that care for her are left stunned, left to help the girl you threw aside. How DARE you!

And don't even think that you could get better then her! She is smart, funny, gorgeous, and she made you a better person. Guess you can't appreciate the good thing you had, well, too bad for you, you lost her. She will move on and find someone.

As for you? You. Are. Tiny. You are nothing. You lied to her, you lied to her family, and we all trusted that you were a good guy. You filthy LIAR!'




And now what am I supposed to do? You guys were together four years.... Doesn't leave much hope for us single gals. I thought you were good for her. I thought that you two would be together forever. guess forever isn't as long as it once was. She cried. We've been friends for years, I've only seen her cry perhaps five times.

But no worries, she's gonna find someone someday who might actually treat her well. And maybe I will too.

Apple Cider Days

Lots to update about, but no time with which to update. Perhaps by the end of the week I shall have another actual posting but for now this will have to do. Sorry.

Hello China, Russia, Canada, Luxembourg, Brazil, Sweden, Slovenia, and all the other random countries that have found my blog. Hope you enjoy. Not gonna lie, it fells weird to be read internationally.
