Make vodka lemonade with basil....


I actually really don't drink much but that sounds really good right now.

So much has happened thus far in 2014 I feel like 8 months have passed and I haven't stopped to take it all in.

Being in a relationship has been so amazing, I know I haven't been the best friend or sister or anything lately but it's hard to not want to be around the person you love all the time.

I've also been really consumed by work and the constant struggle of getting promoted is draining. I'm at a standstill now and even though I've only been there 9 1/2 months I've never worked so hard to prove myself and it's discouraging to have so many interviews and have so many rejections. It will ultimately just motivate me even more to work harder at finding a better job. I don't know how (e:terry) worked an inbound call job for so long... It's a 10 hour day of allowing people to vent and be angry about situations you have nothing to do with. I can handle customer service but this is just relentless and depresses me. I love the amazing benefits but the work itself is pretty much the same day after day... Time for an alumni membership and some serious networking.


I just got a second job driving for über which I think will be interesting and profitable for the short term. My goal is to do this for about 6 months and pay off my car and all my credit card debit and a chunk of my student loans. My coworker drives for them on his days off and makes some serious cash so why not?!

I seriously love having a new car...


Finally moving out of the parental home and into an apartment with my man... Super excited to have my own home with my guy. We are shooting for a month from now if not sooner.

I am in a kickball league and learning hoe to play on a team... A new challenge as I mostly despise team sports and cheering and all that. I actually won the game for us last week.

I miss my sweet little nieces so much, hopefully I'll stop being so broke soon and I can't visit this fall. On the note of being broke my bank was hacked this past week- hackers need to get right and steal from people who actually have money. That in addition to major hive breakout and being subjected to my mothers' two week long 60th party celebration in which I've been staying at random places because she gave my room to her guests has been probably the worst week yet of 2014.... She has every right to do that however it sucks to miss my luxurious bed and smart TV...


And then I remember that I have heath care and no imminent threat of Ebola and I think overall my life is pretty damn good. Later peeps, love ya!

I miss you lil blo baddies. Besos!

I was interviewed for an assistant team lead position which is exactly where I want to be in order to move into a training or writing position and was not selected. In laymen's terms, this sucks so bad.


It's super difficult to not be bitter about the fact that I see way more men than women move up the ladder. It also sucks to see the company choose to promote those without an education. I worked so hard to finally finish school and do it right. Makes me second guess who I work for and I want to continue my career with this company or go elsewhere.

I do my best daily... And this last quarter I had the highest performance ratings on my team. In short, I do the best job in the shortest amount of time with the highest customer satisfaction ratings. Apparently that still isn't good enough or noticeable to those in power. I try so hard to help customers everyday... Against the struggle of a terrible new interface and systems that are archaic or don't work properly and I still get damn good ratings. I also put together presentations and submit teammate success stories for others to encourage recognition.

I realize this is me complaining about the monotony of corporate world and its backwards ways, but I know I'm worth more. Time to piloting the pavement once again and find an actual career where I am placed in a position that allows me to thrive. It's a waste of intelligence, creativity and talent to be complacent and stay where I'm currently at.

I'm also bitter that likely all the men around me make more money for doing the same work that does not nearly meet the quality of mine. Not gonna get bitter, just better honey. Ba leeeeee dat hunni.

I can get a little raw chicken sandwich action at work...


I'm so hungry but so afraid to eat. The cafe at work will now be only for beverages and packaged items like hummus and pretzels.


This is the struggle. I love raw fish, meat.... But chicken is not a raw item that one ever wishes to consume. Maybe a little food poisoning before my vacay will get this body looking right!!!

I don't approve of cyber bullying and you're unsolicited message is an example of the faceless and baseless comments unhappy people feel they can hide behind because they are sent electronically rather than in person. If you have something to say, say it to my face.

PS. I really love my giant grey alien eyes. :)
