So hi.
It's been a little bit.
But I was bored and kinda nostalgic, so I decided that it was bloooog timeeee!!!
The reason for my boredom and nostalgia is that my sister graduated today and also I forgot to renew my netflix subscription so I have no shows. Both equally important life events, I think.
But, no. My baby sister who is a baby is now graduated from high school. It is a bit alarming. They are letting babies graduate now. What the hell?
That or she's aging. But I think the baby thing is more plausible.
Anyway.
I went to her graduation. It was real long. And real crowded. And I waved real aggressively, but I don't think she even saw me.
But it was all worth it because afterwards we went to get Mexican food and I got to eat like three chimichangas because chimichangas are actually amazing and will change yoru life for the better and like one margarita because it was the daytime and I am not an alcoholic!
But for cereal, I am super proud of my smallish sister and her shiny new diploma and her fancy square hat.
We're gonna be in college together, it's gonna be weird. Because I, like the idiot that I am...am going (trails off into mumbles) back to stupid school...
Ugh.
Yes, I know. We all expected this when I got a sociology degree. I KNOW. THERE WAS REALLY NO OTHER OPTION I KNOW THAT OKAY.
Bluh.
It just sucks cause I wanna be a functional adult with a job I like and stuff who doesn't live in their parent's basement.
(Though, and I will be real w/ you here...I like my parents and their basement. My parents are cool. We hang out, like, socially.)
So yeah. School is a thing that's going to start up here in a few months. I'm going online because the prospect of having to attend school in real pants terrifies me and because I dislike human interaction. So...yeah. I'm planning on doing that whole transition to teaching deal cause I'm pretty good with kids or whatever.
They're cool. We like the same stuff (pokemon, apple juice, and pretending that we're dragons when it's cold and we breath out steam) and I've spent the whole year doing some sort of tutoring...so yeah.
Ima substitute teach while I do school then teach for reals or whatever. Or at least that is the current plan. We know how good I am at sticking to plans! I have eight majors, just reminding you!
Mmm, but in other news my sister is getting married.
I'm the maid of honor because I am the sort of person who deserves honor.
Her fiance can do math and I can kick his ass at smash bros, so I'm cool with him joining the fam or whatever.
It's just...I didn't expect that a wedding involved so much, like, planning? It's stressful and I'm doing practically none of it?
Just listening to my sister talk about it basically gives me anxiety-based hives. It's like "oh no, the harpist cancelled so now we have to find a new harpist and DO YOU KNOW HOW FEW HARPISTS LIVE IN INDIANA? THREE. THERE ARE THREE HARPISTS IN INDIANA AND ONE IS BUSY AND THE OTHER TWO ARE DEAD." and then it's like "so we need to rent a tent and it's GOING TO COST THE SOULS OF OUR UNBORN CHILDREN PLUS A $900 DEPOSIT."
It's stressful. And it is all happening at the same time.
When I was, like, a smaller human than I am now, I thought that adult life and things like wedding planning were arranged as, like, one problem after another. A series of one by one issues you had to address then fix.
But, no. That is not how life works because that would be easy. Adult life means a billion stupid problems all happening simultaneous and you're so tired all of the time and your degree is just a piece of paper and now you have to go back to school to get another piece of paper and you just want to make a blanket fort and hide in it but you can't because you're an adult now and apparently that is not adult-like behavior!
Ahem.
It's been a long couple of months.
But the weathers warm again, so that's...good? Most days its good.
Some days its scary because warm weather means increased snake activity. I was kayaking with a friend earlier this week and I saw a snake and it was So Scary. I was So Scared. But I had been talking in a British accent before I saw the snake (because I'm a moron) and then after I saw it I just kind of...forgot? To drop the accent?
So I was screaming curse words and things like "ROW FASTER IT WILL EAT US I'M SERIOUS IT TOTALLY WILL" but in a really dedicated British accent. So it sounded like I was just doing a bit.
Like "I don't remember this part in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, but damn girl you're selling it!"
So, yeah.
That happened.
But, other than that I liked kayaking. Or, as I call it, Floating Down a River For a Couple Hours With Very Occasional Paddling. I'm a very lazy kayaker. Paddling only happens when there is, like, a clear and present threat of me hitting a tree and capsizing.
So yeah.
That's whats been happening with me lately.
I lead an exciting life, I know. It's normal to be jealous.
