sick
well, another lovely day of being sick. not sure what's wrong with me. here are my symptoms:
1. stiff neck
2. sore throat
3. migraines all day long
4. stuffy nose
5. body aches
6. fever
7. vomiting- that's a new one as of an hour ago
fun huh? thankfully there isn't much work to be done today so I'm off the hook.
of course my lovely boyfriend was going to come over and watch movies last night to cheer me up but he fell asleep at 5 because he was at an amusement park all day with the guys and the sun wore him out. did he call to check on me or cancel? nah, he just slept. so when i left him a bitchy voicemail he felt the need to call at 2am and tell me that I'm high maintenance and that if I'm going to flip out everytime I don't get my way no one will ever make me happy. Wow thanks for being so nice babe. really.

meet the parents
so in a sad turn of events, Millionaire's grandma died on Thursday. We were making pizza and goofing around when he got the call. He actually cried which threw me off because he NEVER cries or even comes close. So then he asks if I'll come with him. Of course I said yes and we started looking for the earliest flight out. Then his dad calls and says that his mother is hysterical and is being medicated and his slightly screwed up older brother is coming as well. So then we rethink the whole meet the family thing. We decide I'll stay home because this might be an akward time to introduce me to the family. He put it this way (which I found very sweet) "When you meet my family I want it to be all about you and this weekend it wouldn't be. But I want you to know that it's really important to me that you meet my family soon. " Awwww. And he calls me a couple times a day telling me he misses me. Very cute. (Of course I feel like a selfish ass for finding this romantic seeing as his grandma just died. )

the airport floor
Can I just say that #1 I HATE THE ATLANTA AIRPORT #2 I HATE US AIRWAYS #3 I HATE THE CHARLOTTE AIRPORT
YUM! DINNER!!
Good times. My back is now screaming at me to give it heavy pain killers. So as we lay on the floor shivering in the cold AC I tried to pretend that my laptop was really a pillow. NOT SO MUCH. Finally at 4 am ------ 3 hours after we first laid down------ some random airport worker comes over and is like "Oh hey we have pillows and little blankets why are you sleeping on your laptop? " OH MY GOD!!!!! Let's see maybe because you jackasses didn't GIVE us any blankets or pillows!!!!!! So by that time I was already half awake so I sat in a chair until the airport opened up at 5am. I then slept on the floor at my gate until boarding. This flight was also an hour late and was also overbooked by 7 people. Thankfully two old people volunteered to take a later flight and me and another guy got first class seats!! That was the only highlight of the trip. Of course I slept the entire flight so I didn't really get to enjoyt the first class experience to the fullest. (i.e. getting wasted at 8 am on free bloody mary's)-this is what the guy next to me did. Good times.
Let me tell you about my lovely little trip. I leave the Minneapolis/St. Paul Airport headed for a layover in Charlotte. The plane takes off-then immediately lands! The passengers all began to look concernced. The pilot then gets of the speakerphone and says (and I quote) "Uuummmm....sorry folks this is kinda embarassing but we seem to have forgotten to put fuel in the plane, it's gonna be a bit of a wait." SERIOUSLY?? How the F do you forget to fuel a freaking plane???? And so began the journey from hell. After 2 hours on the runway waiting for the forgotten fuel we finally took off.
I arrive in Charlotte where I have to RUN at full speed to make my connecting flight only to get there and have them tell us - oops! another delay! This time they didn't even tell us why, I like to think it's because everyone who works at US Airways is completely off their rockers and should not be allowed to fly planes. I finally arrive in Atlanta, 6 HOURS LATE. It then takes them almost 2 hours just to give us our bags which were on the same damn plane we were! What took so long? Was the crew taking a nap before unloading the luggage? It would seem so!
So now I'm in a really really crappy mood. All I want to do is get in my rental, go to the hotel and take a long hot shower and go to bed. But of course life is never that simple. I get to the Hertz place hop in my sweet ride (Nissan Murano-not bad actually except I hated the headrest but that's another story) when I realize this is a car that starts at the push of a button! Neato right? Umm not so much when the freaking car won't start and I don't know why. I don't know how to use these keyless cars why don't they give instructions!!! So feeling more angry and pissed I grab an attendant and inform him the car won't start to which he responds "Uummmm, MAM, you have to push the brake for 3 seconds while you push the button. " All the while looking at me like I'm a pitiful little woman who shouldn't be allowed to drive. Seriously dude how the hell am I supposed to know to push the brake for 3 seconds when no one f-ing tells you that? And don't call me MAM you're like 10 years older than me you loser!!!
And yes, it gets worse..........
The trip was pointless to begin with, training on how to give presentations when I just graduated from college and gave probably 314 presentations in the last 2 years alone. So I was irritated about the waste of time to begin with, then they put us all in the smallest room ever! Picture if you will 1 crazy instructor (with bright red hair that flips on one side and has giant blond chunks on the other) 12 guys who act like they're in middleschool the whole week, and 3 girls (Me, my old roomy, and one other chick) all cramped into a 1ox12 room that has no AC- in Atlanta, GA!!! and it also has the most awful, painful chairs ever invented. We were trapped there for 9 hours a day for 4 days straight. Needless to say, by Thursday afternoon not only was I ready to go home I was also in desperate need of a spinal adjustment.
And so begins the end of the trip from hell. I get to the Atlanta Airport (the busy airport in the world fyi) and thankfully make it through security in only 45 minutes. I get to my gate about an hour early which was fine because I needed dinner anyway, only to see that because of bad weather my plane is delayed a half hour. That's fine, no big deal. So I grab a hotdog (my stomach was already in need of pumping after 4 days of hotel food and catered crap at training so I figured what the hell) Well, a half hour passes and they inform us that the plane will be another 45 minutes late. I'm more than annoyed by now because I just want to go home! As it was I wasn't going to make it home until midnight. Long story short, I didn't end up flying out until 4 hours later. I arrived in Charlotte around 12:30 AM only to find that my flight left without me. I was then informed that Charlotte airport will not reopen until 5 am and I couldn't get a flight until 7:30. So I told them to give me a hotel room voucher and they inform me and the crowd that since it was due to weather they will not give us anything, furthermore we could not sleep at our gate on the "comfy" chairs or we would be arrested for trespassing.
To keep herself from getting killed by the mob, the lady then told us we were more than welcome to sleep on the floor at baggage claim. REALLY????? So me and Ashley-another trainee who ended up on my flight- decided to get nice and drunk. We found the airport bar that was about to close and tried to get some beers and food. We were informed that all they had was Jeager and Salt and Vinegar chips. So that's what we had for dinner. Straight shots of Jeager and Salt and Vinegar chips......I really will need my stomach pumped.
YUM! DINNER!!After consuming our gourmet spread we went to investigate the sleeping situation. Here is what we found:
To avoid sleeping on top of random strangers we chose a secluded spot on the freezing cold floor such as this one.

On the road again
Well I'm getting ready to fly to Atlanta for a week! Even though I'll be training it should still be a good time. My old roomate will be there as well as 10 other trainees. As salespeople it's our duty to drink with each other so I'm sure we will have some good times.
On the man front, Millionaire spent the night last night. My next door neighbor was hitting on me in the laundry room and creeped me out so I was a little scared of sleeping alone (ok not really that much but it sounded good) Anyway, so I told him that and he agreed to come over. It was actually really fun, we just watched movies and talked and laughed til like 3am without fighting at all : ) We both said we're still mad but whatever.
When I get back from the ATL I will tell about all of my adventures there. Until then, have a great week.

i miss him
When I was in junior high I had poster that hung on my wall for years. I'm sure it was thrown away in a fit of redecorating but I loved it. It read:
SOME PEOPLE
Some people come into our livesand leave footprints on our hearts
and we are never ever the same.
Some people come into our lives and quickly go...
Some stay for awhile and embrace our silent dreams.
They help us become aware of the delicate winds of hope...
and we discover within every human spirit there are wings yearning to fly.
They help our hearts to see that the only stairway to the stars is woven with dreams...
and we find ourselves unafraid to reach high.
They celebrate the true essence of who we are...
and have faith in all that we may become.
Some people awaken us to new and deeper realizations...
for we gain insight from the passing whisper of their wisdom
Throughout our lives we are sent precious souls...
meant to share our journey however brief or lasting their stay
they remind us why we are here.
To learn... to teach... to nurture... to love
Some people come into our lives to cast a steady light
upon our path and guide our every step
their shining belief in us helps us to believe in ourselves.
Some people come into our lives to teach us about love...
The love that rests within ourselves.
Let us reach out to others and feel the bliss of giving
for love is far richer in action than it ever is in words.
Some people come into our lives
and they move our souls to sing and make our spirits dance.
They help us to see that everything on earth is part of the incredibility of life...
and that it is always there for us to take of its joy.
Some people come into our lives and leave footprints on our hearts
and we are never ever the same.

The poster didn't include the entire poem but it's the first lines (and the last) that grab me. I feel so blessed to have certain people in my life. My family, my friends, old lovers, and there are the people I have yet to meet. There is one person in particular that I always think of when I read this poem. He loved me and I loved him. We both still love each other in a different way I suppose. I remeber the first time I saw him, standing in the airport so nervous...holding a hot pink rose for me. And I remember standing in his kitchen wrapped in a gray towel, my hair still wet from the shower, smelling that still perfect rose. He was doing something in the kitchen but I remember he looked at me and I just felt so loved in that moment. Why I broke his heart I will never know. I ask myself that question almost every day. We are still close friends, which is strange. I've dated other people and so has he. His current girlfriend is wonderful for him. She's beautiful and seems to have a big heart and I can tell she makes him happy. All I want for him is happiness and I'm glad that he has found it. I'll admit there is a part of me that aches for him from time to time. Days like today when I have nothing to do but relax with a good book, and I can't help but think how nice it would be to look over and see him on the couch next to me with a book of his own, his dog and my cat between us. It could be that in this new city I'm just very lonely and have too much time on my hands to think about the past. But for whatever reason....I miss him today.

I'm ba-ack.....this could be a bad thing
Ok, I recently moved to Minneapolis and have no friends or family. I dumped my bf today and have been consoling myself with some amazing wine and blog-reading. My personal favorite? SLynnRo...amazing...her blog: Random Rantings.
Anyways, I'm not a great write but I do tend to have interesting things to talk about. Ok at least they're interesting to me. Today I am writing about the most recent (aka 2 hours ago) ex boyfriend whom I will refer to as Millionaire....seriously he was. Word to the gold-digging whores out there-get a life! Money so does not buy happiness. Millionaire is the most depressed person ever!! Anyways, we met when I was in search of an apartment for my impending move. He builds condos so I emailed him with questions about his building- um fyi I cannot afford his $1 mil condos. Anyways we hit it off and began an email relationship which moved to IMing and then texting. Ridiculous. He then flew us to South Beach to meet and to celebrate my birthday. I was amazed. Here he was! The man of my dreams! I don't care about money but damn a trip to South Beach for my bday? Amazing. He was great, we had a fantastic time, etc. Sadly, the long distance for the next 4 months before my move was a strain and we broke up but kept in touch. Finally we decided that once I moved we would try things again. Again he was amazing. My parents helped move me in and he took us around the town, dinner, jazz clubs, the works. My parents fell in love...and so did I(ok well not really but you get the point)
Sadly, this behavior did not last. He became the dreaded "Lazy Boyfriend" for those of you not familiar this is the guy who sweeps you off your feet and then once he "has" you. becomes a lazy useless oaf who wants you to do all the work. Yes he works 12 hours a day and is stressed but hello!!! Take a girl on a date for God's sake! I kid you not, I have been here for a month and we never went on one date, and I never met his friends, and he is selfish in bed. After spending the week contemplating dumping him I decided to do it.
Seriously, I could care less if I'm single forever I will NOT settle for anything less than what I want. And why should I??? Read this article and you will understand my hatred for men at the moment. http://www.forbes.com/home/2006/08/23/Marriage-Careers-Divorce_cx_mn_land.html
And men wonder why we want careers instead of families-because we don't want to marry assholes like you!!!
Ok enough bitching for tonight. I'm going to finish off my wine and listen to good music and enjoy my peaceful solitude. (is it weird that I like be alone more than be around other people? perhaps it's because people suck! if you are my friend you are very special indeed-you know who you are a.k.a. you are the only ones who read my blog.)

Aden
For those of you who do not watch sex and the city so much that you feel like the show is part of your life.....
Aden was Carrie's (the main character) 2nd great love. He was a strong, kind, handsome man who would have done anything for her. She cheated on him with Big and he forgave her and took her back and even asked her to marry him-she screwed it up. Here's hoping I don't do the same!
I sit on the Executive Board of a co-ed marketing and sales fraternity in my college. Aden pledged the semester after I did and he now sits on the Executive Board as well. We have been friends going on three years now and I always thought he was hot but never was attracted to him because #1 he was very quiet #2 he had never had a real girlfriend #3 i thought he was 2 years younger than me.......well he started body building-again he's not a meathead lol- about 1 year ago and is now ridiculously built which has given him a lot more confindence so he is more outgoing, funny, etc. He is also a virgin.......this makes things interesting. Well I was extremely sick the week before last hence the lack of blogging. Anyway, he came to visit and watch movies with me to keep me company every day that week and he took me out to lunch one of the days. So we kind of accidentally started dating. The nights spent watching movies on opposite ends of the couch turned into cuddling and staying up all night talking. I'm still a little wary since he has never had a real girlfriend but I'm gonna take my chances. He is the nicest guy ever but he is also a real guy's guy too.
So far he is incredibly sweet, very cuddly-which I love!!-and the biggest perk, he agreed to watch Sex and the City one night and liked it so now we've started watching all the seasons in order....so far we have watched seasons one and two already. He's addicted lol : )
We'll see how it goes!! Have a great week everyone.

Sorry!!
Sorry it's been so long since I've posted!! It has been a crazy week!! Since I couldn't find employment elsewhere, I went back to the hellhole. The funny thing is, with the husband in charge everything is actually great! No drama, I'm actually getting stuff done and I might get promoted!
Also, there is a new boy in the picture! Oddly enough, he has the same name as Mr. Big which sucks. He is like my Aden. I've known him for 3 years from school and we've always been friends but he was always a little quiet for my taste. Well the past year he took up body building-no he isn't a meathead lol- and he is now ripped as hell which is a perk and he's also got a lot more confidence because of it and is more outgoing. Well apparently a few weeks ago he started to like me and now in the past week we have spent almost every day together. Here's the kicker- he's a virgin!!!! Yes ladies, that's right, the rare male creature that it usually associated with pocket protectors and thick-rimmed glasses is actually a hot, smart, funny, nice guy! I'm still a little wary. I know he's a great guy because I've been friends with him for so long, but at the same time he's never had a girlfriend so I'm wondering if he'll turn into one of those clingly boys that follows you around everywhere. Only time will tell. For now I'll just sit back and enjoy the view haha.
More to come when I get time!!!!

God I hate my life tonight
Do you ever have those days that make you just want to pack everything into your car and get the hell outta dodge? Today was one of those days. So far this week I have lost my job, lost a large amount of sleep, come to the realization that I'm falling for the guy that's engaged, learned that he is also falling for me but is afraid to break his fiance's heart by leaving her, and also come to realize that I'm still in love with Mr. Big even though I try so hard not to think about him.
Both roomates are currently getting some from their respective boyfriends while I lay in my room trying to sleep and trying not to call Mr. Big. So I figured I would blog to take my mind off it.
Yeah, lost the job. The crazy bosses finally made the work environment just a little too crazy for my taste. The wife hid the trucks so our crew can't go out and do their job, she also stole $14,000 from the company. So her husband fired her (which he can't really do since they both own the business) he also fired his own daughter for taking the wife's side. He then had police brought in to escort them off the premises and brought in his drug dealing whore to be the new secretary. So me and my engaged co-worker hugged, said we would miss each other and proceeded to quit.
We then had a two hour conversation about how much we want to be able to see each other but we know that we would end up having an affair. He then told me he knows he needs to leave her but its just really hard after four years. We had lunch the next day didn't even talk about "us" which was nice. I'm going to miss him a lot. I realize he will never leave her, they never do. But we never did anything physical which I am so glad for! At least we never cheated-maybe emotionally I guess we did though.
After two glasses of wine I am slightly tipsy and wanting so badly to call Mr. Big but I know I can't. The thing is, I know he still loves me but he is so freaking stubborn. He really is just like Mr. Big on Sex and the City. Maybe 6 years from now he and I will make it work. Yeah....ok.
Goodnight everyone....hope you all have a better week than me.

Yeah, lost the job. The crazy bosses finally made the work environment just a little too crazy for my taste. The wife hid the trucks so our crew can't go out and do their job, she also stole $14,000 from the company. So her husband fired her (which he can't really do since they both own the business) he also fired his own daughter for taking the wife's side. He then had police brought in to escort them off the premises and brought in his drug dealing whore to be the new secretary. So me and my engaged co-worker hugged, said we would miss each other and proceeded to quit.
We then had a two hour conversation about how much we want to be able to see each other but we know that we would end up having an affair. He then told me he knows he needs to leave her but its just really hard after four years. We had lunch the next day didn't even talk about "us" which was nice. I'm going to miss him a lot. I realize he will never leave her, they never do. But we never did anything physical which I am so glad for! At least we never cheated-maybe emotionally I guess we did though.
After two glasses of wine I am slightly tipsy and wanting so badly to call Mr. Big but I know I can't. The thing is, I know he still loves me but he is so freaking stubborn. He really is just like Mr. Big on Sex and the City. Maybe 6 years from now he and I will make it work. Yeah....ok.
Goodnight everyone....hope you all have a better week than me.

videos
FYI the third video down is the only good one, I cant quite figure out how to pick and choose which videos to put on here so the other three are stuck for now. Although the first one is funny if any of you have a crazy mother-in-law
It's not how it seems on Sex and the City
Well, my first blog. I was not a fan of blogs until I read my sister's semidesparatehousewife@blogspot.com which made me laugh so loud my boss came in and got pissed because I wasn't working-whoops! I am not half the writer my sister is, however I thought it would be fun to make a blog about being a single girl in contrast to her blog about being a wife and mother.
At the moment I am sitting at work (marketing intern)....fun times! I cannot wait to graduate and get the hell out of this town and get a real job. My bosses are going through a divorce and at the moment are once again standing outside my office having a screaming match. I love my job.
So, being a single girl is interesting to say the least. When I say it's not how it seems on Sex and the City, I mean it. I love Sex and the City.....sadly I have every episode on dvd as well as the trivia game. On the show, the girls have fabulous jobs, fabulous friends, rent controlled apartments, and gorgeous men around every corner. Now as a senior in college the jobs are hardly fabulous, but hopefully next year that will change. I do have fabulous friends though, can't complain there. Rent, not so cheap but it's worth it to live where I live.
Men deserve a paragraph of their own. The city in which I live actually made it on the list of the 100 worst cities in America for singles. Fantastic. You would think a college town would be swarming with hot guys but noooooo. That would be too easy. Now there are a few hot guys in town, but most are arrogant pigs. The worst part is - even the not-so-hot guys aren't arrogant pigs!! It's like they think that since men are so hard to find, we girls should be content with what we get. It's not wonder I tried Eharmony in December. Yes ladies, at 21 years old I tried internet dating. Now, not tooting my own horn, just being honest, but I am pretty good looking. I may not be the hottest thing on earth but I have no trouble finding men. And I like to think of myself as a good catch, so why do I always seem to find either A. emotionally troubled men or B. cocky assholes. hmmmmmmm........interesting.
Must go for now, the bosses are threatening to fire everyone. YAY!
