Only me...
So I'm filling out this paperwork that's like 10 pages long. In order to be able to erase my answers, I obviously filled it out with pencil. AFTER I finish the entire package, I decide to read through all of my information for accuracy. Only then do I realize that at the top of the paperwork, in all caps, it says "PLEASE FILL OUT THIS FORM WITH AN INK PEN." Reeeaaalllyyy?? How is this possible?! This would seriously only happen to me! The kicker--guess what kind of paperwork it was? ADHD paperwork!!! How ironic is that! haha If that doesn't tell you something, I don't know what will! hahaha At least I can laugh at myself! :)

Valentine's Day, Shmalentine's Day
Valentine's day is the WORST holiday of the year! Seriously. Now, I'm not some bitter crazy person who's been smite-ed by the love gods. I'm not even single this year! I just honestly hate this day. Besides the fact that it is a completely commercialized holiday (who needs flowers and chocolates only ONE day a year?), it's also just an all around sucky day--FOR EVERYONE.
First of all, let's talk about all the single ladies out there. Most of these girls are depressed because, of course, they're single. But fret not my friends! Grab some girls who are also single and head on over to a lingerie store! Even if you don't buy anything, you'll get a kick out of the experience and have a ball with your girls! Then, grab some goodies and treat yourself to some yummy brownies! OR...choose my all-time favorite...Funfetti cupcakes! They're certain to put you in a good mood! :)
We also have to talk about the relationship gals. While I actually have a boyfriend this year, I am taking myself out of this category because I never EVER celebrate this day. Anyways...we have to split the relationship peeps into two groups...the grossies and the saddies. There really are only these two extremes.
The grossies are those typical girls who looovvvee Valentine's Day and everything about it. They have the 'perfect' boyfriends and get lovey dovey presents and eat at a fancy restaurant on this day. They say they are 'just sooo happy it's Valentine's Day.' Well how about this ladies--why can't your boyfriends be 'Valentine's Day sweet' everyday?!! It shouldn't take one day for them to tell you how much you mean to them. If they do...they're clearly not worth your time.
The saddies are the girls who wanna be the grossies. They have all these crazy expectations about how wonderful their boyfriend will be today and how amazing the night will be. But, honestly, with hopes so high, how can anything go right? These girls are always disappointed by night's end and will never have a happy Valentine's Day. They should just turn into me! haha Instead of going to a fancy dinner tonight, I'm taking a pole dancing class with my friend! Please don't judge me on this! From what I hear, it's a great workout and tons of fun! Plus, we got a super good deal on the classes! In any case...I'd much rather spend my night doing this than gaining an extra ten pounds stuffing back all the food from a fancy dinner (which is probably overpriced anyways)!
So...here's what I say...GET OVER IT PEOPLE! It's just another day on the calendar!!! If you only need one day of the year to show you're in love, then guess what...you're probably not in love. Might as well become one of those single girls again! Funfetti can never let you down like a guy can! ;)
Either that...or just don't celebrate it! Make everyday a LOVE day! Oh...and go out and try something new today! Like pole dancing!
Happy Loving y'all! ;)

I Wanna Shop til I Drop!
I really really really want to be a professional shopper. Does anyone know how to go about doing this? I mean, honestly, I could seriously rock that job! All I need is a little extra cash and I'm all set! I think I could shop everyday and be perfectly happy with it! :) Online shopping is fun too, but it's a little difficult because I can't try things on. And we all know every girl likes to look in the mirror and check herself out when we get new things!
I'd even settle for being a personal shopper for someone else! How awesome would that be! haha Spending someone else's money?!! Sounds perfect to me! Oh well...instead, I'll just have to be ok with shopping occasionally and hating everything in my closet. The joys of being a girl, you know! ;)
Short post today...sorry!

Taxes and That Southern Slang
Whoa baby, whoa baby!
It's been a crazy 2 days here in my life! Mostly, TAXES! This is the first year I've ever tried doing my own taxes (thank goodness for mommas!) and gosh dang if it isn't the hardest thing ever! Even the step-by-step e-file TurboTax thing is confusing! I can't wait til I'm rich so I can just pay someone to do this stuff for me! haha
The federal part isn't tooooo bad...but if you're like me and you lived in 3 states in one year (and worked in all of them), it becomes a bit of a pain in the tookus! (That's booty for those who don't know my awesome southern slang!) Luckily, I called my wonderful mom and started asking way too many tax-y type questions and she says "just send it over and we'll see if we can get that part done for you." AWESOME! SUCCESS! Now it shall all be worked out! ;)
Speaking of my southern terminology, I've been told many times lately by my friends here in Cali that I talk weird (yes, I know I have an accent, but this is not what they mean). So, either I just make up tons of words for fun, or I learned some things a little different than the rest of the US. Here are some examples:
I think I'll stop for the day and if I think of more stuff later, I'll just create a new post! YAY!!!
Have a good evening! :)

- Parking deck: apparently people call these parking garages. In any case, this is where you park your car like at a mall or something and there are multiple levels.
- Shanking: other people call this 'pantsing.' How dumb does pantsing sound??!!! Clearly, you shank someone by pulling their pants down in public when they least expect it.
- 'Putting up the dishes': My friends here say 'put the dishes away.' Also...dumb! haha I'm going to blame this on being short because I have to put dishes above me, so I say I put them 'up!' Totally makes sense to me!!
I think I'll stop for the day and if I think of more stuff later, I'll just create a new post! YAY!!!
