Hump DAYEE!

Oh wow – I haven’t linked up for some confessions in well… a long time.

But since I really need to get back on this blog wagon (struggle city over here) what better way to do so than link up with Kat and confess?
Vodka and Soda

Tomorrow I am going to be featured on one of my FAVORITE blogs! Have you checked out Just a Trace? Because you need to ASAP. Or just do it tomorrow while I'm over there confessing some online dating history of mine for her Adventures in Dating series! Tracey is awesome, so make sure you poke around and check out her blog as well.

I have not gone to the gym in WEEKS. It is a disaster. I’m bigger than I’ve ever been and I need to get to work on myself. Fair was a great excuse, but now it’s over with and I need to get my ass in gear.

Another one of my friends got engaged last week. I’m at that age where every other week it’s a wedding, engagement or baby. Seriously, every Monday my Facebook feed blows up with wedding photos of the 3 or more weddings from that weekend. But back on the friend getting engaged note – it is about time! Her and her now fiancé have been dating for 5 and a half years! Anyways I am super excited for them and for their wedding.

On the engagement note, I’ve been getting a lot of the “when are you guys going to get engaged” question lately. Today it hit me that we have been living together more than a year. I didn’t really expect to live together that long without (cough) something or other on my finger. Three and a half years is plenty of time for him to make up his mind right?

I have something going on EVERY weekend for the rest of the summer. The sad part? Right now I am NOT excited about it. After Fair all I want to do is sleep and lay around on my couch with my dog. Is that too much to ask for? Instead I’m going to Salt Lake City this weekend for a shopping trip, have a pool party/stay the night type event the following weekend, a birthday and tour de fat (bikes and beer yo!) the following weekend, a bachelorette party the next weekend and then it’s Labor Day. No time for a lounging weekend at all in there. Oh the pain…. I hope if I could just have one solid 12 hour sleep sesh that I would be more excited for these things, or just for life in general. A 90 hour work week kills!

I’m needy. I feel like in my relationship I am constantly asking and wanting more, and it makes me feel like a whiny, needy, high maintenance whore. I’ve never really considered myself high maintenance. As a people pleaser through and through, most of my relationships have revolved around the other person. Recently however, I’ve realized that if I’m in this one for the long haul I need ME to be taken care of as well. Probably a good realization right? So why do I feel like a whiny little girl who needs affection and doting and mushy romance all of the sudden? It’s not a good look for me.

I feel like that was all a little scatterbrained. Post Fair brain is not firing on all cylinders. Here’s to hoping next week I will be back to normal!

  1. i think we all go through that (the needy part). however, it will eventually go away and you end up being like, GO AWAY AND LET ME BE! i kick my husband out of the house and say: go! do your thang! i need to be alone and do girl things!!

    thanks for linking up!

  4. Sometimes it's about talking about what you need and how you need it. Let him know what makes you feel loved and needed :)

    1. I'm glad someone got that - I thought my sense of humor was wasted on that graphic. Is it bad that is the first thing I think every time someone gets engaged? Thanks for commenting!

  8. This year has been a quiet year for engagements/weddings, but sooo many babies on my FB feed. I'm over here like, YAY look at my fur-kids! They don't have poopy diapers and won't ever talk back and I don't have to send them to college!

    I used to get pretty jealous and now I feel like I've plateaued out and I tell myself it will happen when it happens. I'd way rather have wedding-jealousy than baby-jealousy right now anyways.

    1. I'm totally all about my fur-babies too! I guess I need to let myself plateau a little and chill out - it will happen if it's meant to! Thanks and sorry I'm so late replying...
