Distinctions

Ok.  I need your help.  Someone please explain to me what it's supposed to be like to grow up & get old.  Last night, after sitting on the couch watching 2 hours of Bachelor boredom, I felt completely strange.  & antsy!  I wanted to get up & do something, but couldnt think of a single thing I "wanted" to do! 

I had spent all full day at the office.
I had spent an hour at the gym.
I had gotten home & cooked a delicious supper with the bf. 
& then retired to the couch.  Here's where things get crazy - I alternate between my book, DVR'ed shows, & my twitter feed for the rest of the nightly entertainment. 

I'm told this is a normal evening - so why am I restless?  To me it feels lackluster. 

Not that I dont appreciate each day - I do.  But I want each day to be exciting & fun & new! & then I spend it hibernating in giant sweatpants on the couch, with day old, matted down crazy hair.  

I don't care that I'm a "grown up", but I want my day to be more exciting that my book at lunch or picking up my drycleaning.  SOMEONE SAVEEEEEEE MEEEEEEEEEEEE.............


XOXO,

Cat Lady

Ok, so I admit it.  I like cats.  I loooooooovvvvvveeeeeeeee kitties.  & if it weren't for the bf I might have 5 (or 10) of them running around my apt.   I only have the pleasure of having one cute, little, cuddly bundle of kitty love, but she's my baby!

When she's not trying to strangle herself with a Target sack, she's hanging out with her Papa (he doesn't claim her, but I forcibly call him her Papa anyway!). 

"Oh yeah, biting feet is fuuuun.  I am BUDDHA KITTY"

Ok, so I might be weirdly obsessed with her & her cute-ness, but how many kitties can sit like Buddha for minutes at a time? (Dont burst my bubble & tell me yours does too.  Let me revel in her glory). 

Is it weird that 90% of the photos on my phone are of her? I mean, are photos like this really necessary?

Really, she looks the same in every single one, but I still keep snapping pics of her.  Don't mind the blink, she's trying to keep her mystery you know....

Aww....I swear she is hugging me. & I also swear she does it when I'm sad.  She knows, I know she knows.  (My sister swears I'm whack & that she probably just likes hitting my face.  I'm convinced she's counselor of all kitties & she's expert at comforting).

EXCITING NEWS*!*!*!*!*! Kitter just got a new bff/sister!  My momma snagged her very own cutie yesterday! Can you believe this little angel was a stray?

I. WANT. TO. HAVE. HER.

For real. I might steal her when I go home.

I mean, dont you think she would make a nice playmate?

Really. I have a problem. I love her & I've only seen like 5 pictures.

Happy day Momma! Enjoy her.................or I'll take her off your hands ;)

XOXO,

Where, Oh Where...

Where, Oh where have I been???
(Besides on my couch in sweatpants cuddling a kitty)................................CHICAGO.

& it was even more fun than I expected.  Which was alot of fun considering I was in San Antonio the week before.  That's some pretty high standards to live up to. 

I had a pretty decent travel buddy. 

It was his birthday so he thought he was special & could do special things like order room service.  $55.00 room service.  Good thing I love him or I would have been really upset that I could have bought a shirt or some earrings with that hard earned money.

That's ok though, because I made him do really dorky tourist-y things....like visit THE BEAN.

If you tell me this isn't cool then I dont think we can be friends anymore.

I mean -- check out that skyline! We were freezing our faces off so we didn't hang out too long.  Just long enough to spot a Nordstrom's & spend too much money.  & maybe visit Sprinkles, which is the best cupcake shop in Chicago according to Oprah.  She's basically the queen of Chicago so I'll take her word for it. 

Because it was bf's birthday (& because I secretly think hockey players are sexxxxxxxxy), we went to a Blackhawks game.  This is how bf gets pumped for the game.

This is how I get pumped for the game.



....by getting ridiculously decked out in Blackhawks gear & making bf smile in pictures with me.  You can tell he gets a little sick of it, but I make him anyway.

I didn't make him pose for any pictures while we were there, so that was rather non-like-me & nice & not-embarassing-you-because-its-your-birthday-ish.  I'm probably the best gf ever.

That about wraps up our trip.  Besides the full body massages.  Which I wont show you because that'd be a little overshare..... & you dont want to see me naked. 

Oh & maybe the shopping.  I came home with some niiiiiiiiiiiice things.  But if anyone wants to buy me this necklace I wouldn't mind.  In fact, I'd probably hug you forever & become your bff.

My initials are KLG. I'll wait for it by my door.


XOXO,

KG

PS.  We are going to re-do our bedroom soon & bf wants to show off his handiwork so he told me to post about it here.  If you think small-20-something-people-condos are boring then you might want to skip that post.  Just sayin.

Nothing

I wish I could say I have more interesting information to share...................But I really dont. Instead, how about a random compilation of things running through my mind?

Bf & I went to the RiverWalk & Austin for NYE.  Fuuuuun.

Here we are on the RiverWalk at night.  Oh so romantic.

Ha, just kidding. We were walking to a bar so he could watch the football game.  We were most likely heading to Hooters.  This boy is pure class I tell you.

Here we are sporting our classy Hooter's tees at our condo in Gruene,TX.

This was the cutest little town ever! It was old & antique (my faves!) & a small little town.  There were antique shops, cute restaurants, little boutiques.  They even passed out free margaritas to shoppers.  Basically small town girl heaven. We even ate in an old cotton gin (which is now the coolest restaurant I've ever been to). 

Gristmill in Gruene, TX.

Oh & I switched positions at work so I dont have to travel anymore.  Except when I'm jetting off to have fun. I like this idea very much.  The bf & I will be in Chicago next weekend for some hockey.

You're welcome for the uncreative ramblings.

Its 4:53pm & there's not much juice left in my brain.

XOXO,

KG
