Mickey Pops and Unruly Eyebrows

Remember that time I was like “oh my god I quit my stupid waitressing job and now I’m going to have so much more time to write?” Yeah that happened, not. I literally still have 100 pictures on my phone from Thanksgiving and Christmas of all the food I cooked, and I was hoping to post them and the corresponding recipes in a timely matter, but, life happens. And I turned 27! My bff came down to visit so I wouldn’t be all alone on my birthday and it was one of the best birthdays I’ve had. So much fun. Yes, I bought myself those flowers. It’s a hard job, but someone had to do it.

Do you know what the absolute worst part of being really busy is? Every time you look in the mirror it’s like your facial hair has conquered you and is about to go for other victims. I swear, every time I look in the mirror it’s like my eyebrows have been doused in miracle grow and my (gasp)mustache(gasp) (OK I’M ITALIAN, IT HAPPENS) is making it’s debut on broadway. My mustache isn’t even that bad (unless I’m in denial) but every time I look at it, it’s back. I can’t tell you how much of my life has been spent in the mirror with tweezers. (Waxing makes me break out) I even keep tweezer in my car and pluck at LEAST twice a week (at red lights). It’s a never ending battle.

In my absence from this blog I have become a baby wrangling ninja. I generally babysit 5 nights a week and then spend the rest of my time in class, writing papers, and trying to numb my brain with reality television rather than chugging away with sentient thought on the keyboard. I still have no friends, but I can see the light! There are 62 days until graduation and someday, I will have them. I just know it. I actually drove four hours to Allentown, PA for a baby shower for my college friends, and then four hours home all in the same day on a rare day off just so that I could spend time with people who were unrelated to work or school. It was fabulous and worth the 8 hours of driving, even with forgotten sunglasses. Yay babies!

For spring break last week I went with my family to Disney (we have a time share) and my bff happened to be there with her family at the same time! So we got to go to the parks together for the first time ever and it was great. She and my sister dragged me on the Tower of Terror which I have avoided since I was 8 years old because, quite frankly, I am terrified and straight down drops make me nauseous, and the resulting picture was quite memorable, but I was outdone by the terrified guy in the front row. Showoff.  (I am in the white tank top in the middle of my sister and friend)

I didn’t even bother to diet or exercise prior to this vacation. I am the fattest I have ever been currently. I weigh a whopping 42lbs more than I did my junior year in college (when I was scary skinny). That’s like a kindergartener. And I really don’t care that much, but I do plan on getting fit when the circus of my last semester is over. But it was lovely because I just ate and ate and ate ALL THE THINGS in Disney and they were delicious.

And I’m so thankful to my friends who watched my kittens while I was gone. They took on the hard job of giving Milo all of his heart medications twice a day… and they said he was so good! Except for one day when he bit my friend. :( He’s never bitten anyone but she said she cornered and grabbed him. I’m sure he didn’t mean it. And Khloe was a diva and put up a good half hour hiding/running stint when I came to pick her up. Today was a snow day and Milo and I made up for our snuggle time all day. And then this happened…. and I just died of the cuteness. So happy to be back with them! (him)
