and i'm back .. i think
so, it’s been a month since the election. read: i’ve had my life back for exactly 31 days and it’s taken me about 30 days to catch up on sleep, attempt to get back on track with the gym and healthy eating, unpack and set up the rest of my room, and overall, just try to be a regular human.
campaign life was INSANE in every sense of the word. i cried and i laughed. i wanted to punch people in the face, i wanted to hug and kiss others. i either ate pizza for 2 of 3 meals a day or ate nothing at all. coffee was my best friend .. along with the 8 other amazing field organizers in cleveland. working on the president’s campaign IN THE MOST IMPORTANT COUNTY IN THE MOST IMPORTANT STATE IN THE (MOST IMPORTANT) COUNTRY was both humbling and empowering and something i will never forget. that’s probably why i got a tattoo to commemorate it, right? right.
and now i’m (f)unemployed. sleeping in and working out and catching up on my shows has been great but i’m starting to get restless. if you follow me on instagram/twitter, you’ve seen that i have become quite the susie homemaker .. cooking, baking, and crafting up a storm. still though, i can only make so many wreaths. oh and that little thing called “income”? it’d be nice to have some of that again. i saved a solid amount living at home before the move and ohio life is pretty freaking cheap compared to DC but i don’t necessarily want to blow through my savings just yet. in other words, the job hunt is totally on.
at least i still have my gig as suburban housewife girlfriend to the giant a.k.a. jake. although his place is 45 mins south of me, living in the same state as him has done wonders for us. he was my rock during the campaign .. never complained about my ridiculous hours, always had ben & jerry’s on hand and sometimes had to give me the “stop crying and man up” talk. oh, and he housed and fed me after sandy hit since my apartment lost power for a whole 6 days! now that i have free time, i’m finally seeing what it’s like to be in a “normal” relationship with him and i really like the direction we are (finally) heading in.
and that’s all i’ve got. i hope i can stay on top of this blog and write and share real things instead of just double-posting pictures from instagram for 3 months. seriously, who does that?! me. in the meantime, except a lot of late likes and comments on your blogs .. i am sooo behind on your lives, not to mention all of the trends i’m sure you’ve started. hope everyone is happy and healthy and ready for santa!!
Have officially reached the ‘fuck bras, fuck everything,’ epoch of this summer. Going over to Bozeman today to get a cheap haircut, in a halter top with no bra because de klassey. The world can just deal with my tits sans Büstenhalter .
On which note, Büstenhalter is maybe my favorite word in any language. It sounds as though my breasts require the strength of some mythic hero to contain them and prevent their rampage across the land.
Quick Post
I feel really disconnected from the world. I hate not having internet access. This post is probably going to cost me four dollars in excess usage or something like that.
I miss you all plenty. You’re the friends I wish I had living closer so that I could visit you for a warm cup of tea and a friendly ear, maybe a comforting hug. I hope all you lovely ladies with your beautiful babies are fine and dandy. I am pretty blue myself, quite down-trodden. Life is really kicking me in the balls.
Noah is doing well. He’s my laughing, squealing and rolling little joy. Growing so fast. Photos soon enough!
Can’t wait to blog properly again.

Somehow, we have to also thank the people who forget us. At the very least, we learn from the experience. We get to know people and their attitude. We get to move on from all those forgotten memories. I think that the only way to make the best out of what is left is to see the positive things. Yes, we’d rather remember all those good times, but then, when people do forget them, who are we to remember?
Update: Sorry everyone.
Okay, so I’m sorry I haven’t been on. :/ Last week my car’s radiator went out, so I had to get a new car. Which is done now, but it was a pain in the ass. Anyway, this week is the week before finals, so I need to study (well, write two papers actually), and then next week is finals. :P Meaning, I’ll not be able to do replies until the 20th (next Wednesday). I’m sorry, and I know I haven’t been the greatest RP partner lately. I’m doing my best, but life seems to have gotten really busy this year. Hopefully summer will be less stressful and give me more time to interact with all you wonderful people. I miss you all and in the words of the great Bilbo Baggins: “I don’t know half of you as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you as well as you deserve.” But really, I love you all and shall miss you in the next week and a half of studying and tests. <3
Since the day of Internet Censorship (or Internet-pocalipse) is upon us...
…please know that if this thing goes through and everything starts shutting down,I’ll miss you all. The people that followed me,the people I follow,the anons I’ve had the honor of talking to.
Just…be careful out there guys. I’m sure even if this thing did pass,there’d be a Supreme Court hearing faster than you can say “Blacklist Bill”,but just in case…
; 3; I’ll miss you all so much if this thing goes through…Tumblr has been so much fun these past few months I’ve been on.
All I know is,I’ll keep on fighting against this act until the very end. I hope that you all will too. And if we’re all separated from here,Twitter,and other sites,please know that even if I’ve never spoken to you or met you,you are my friend in the big world we call the Internet.
Keep fighting,and keep dreaming

Hello there.
I didn’t left.
I didn’t even thought about closing my blog. In fact I miss this. I’m at my cousin’s house, I don’t have internet and things are really freaking hard right now. My mom got sick and she needs special treatments and I’m really worried about it, all my family is, so I think we can call this a Hiatus if you want to. So please don’t get upset and I saw my ask box but I will read them later. So please be supportive and if you want to unfollow because of the inactivity you can do it. But I will be back in one month I think.
