Turns out I am a TERRIBLE Blogger!

I will never be able to make a living writing a blog! And really that is too bad, because if we are being perfectly honest I would MUCH rather sit on my ass and write a blog than go to a 'real' job any day.

That being said: All of you 'Bloggers' out there please don't attack me and tell me that blogging is a 'real' job. Cause I get it (obviously) I really do, blogging isn't easy. All the ideas you need to have and the time that goes into making a nice blog... Blah, blah, blah!! You go to my job for a week and you will know what I am talking about.

So really I'm not even sure why I still have this blog up and running? Can you erase a blog? I don't even know the real answer to that question.. Shoot.. I must continue to blog then! (HAHA let's count how many times I say 'blog' in this post! Shoot.. Sorry kids!)
I think my problem is really that I have all these great ideas that I want to write about, I sit down with my thoughts in my head and then there are so many things around to distract me! The internet is a CRAZY place! (I say that like I get caught up in internet-y type things, when really I just get distracted on 'stupid' things like Twitter and Netflix.) So really my only problem is that I have the attention span of a gnat.
(see right there I had to Google how to spell gnat. Then I started reading about them when really I have NO interest AT all about gnats!)

The point of this post was really to just state that I am a terrible blogger... Sorry kids!!

This brings me to another point... I say that a lot... "Sorry kids" "Okay kids" "Good job Kids" You get the point right?? Well I say it to adults, some are younger than me some MUCH older... As it turns out the ones that are MUCH older don't like it when you call them kids. They think it is demeaning. REALLY? Here is an idea. Don't be such a stuck up ass hole, and don't take things so literally.. Good-ness... I got in trouble. IN TROUBLE for saying "Good job kids" or something to that affect(effect?) to some old ladies at work...  Fuck outta here. That is all I have to say about that!! Get your head out of your ass. xoxo

This is all for tonight... Talk to y'all later.

Hey y'all I'm back for a minute.

October 31st, 2011. 


I'm really not sure I have anything to say about that! HA!! (I never did pick a winning business name.. Sorry kids.)


So it is August 2nd, 2012. A lot has happened over the last almost a year. Here I sit in the bath tub 'relaxing' after a shitty day.


The last 9 months in a nutshell: 
-Alex and I had our 1st anniversary. We still love each other! HA! We are 'trying' to make a human. (By trying I mean we occasionally engage in coitus and I am no longer taking birth control so a human might result from this. HA Y'all are VERY welcome for that visual! 
-Alex is done school. (HAPPY DANCE)
-We are back in the land where things make sense! (I missed home SO bad!)
-We both are working. I don't want to be working. Not that, that would surprise anybody at all that Amy doesn't like working!! 
-We found a 'nice' 2 bedroom apartment in Rosemont. (Pretty sure everybody in the building except us have cats. SO the back half <<public area>> of our building smells like rotten cat ass!)
-Our place is nice though.. I like it anyway. Really though I live with the man I love so what more could a girl ask for... Besides maybe a mansion with a swimming pool, a butler and a maid... **Wishful thinking**


Really though if I am being perfectly honest.. Nothing that exciting has happened in our lives.. We are pretty *basic (read boring) people! 


I still like to crochet. I learned how to crochet toques! That was an exciting life event! (Grandma Brown would be so proud!) My Friend Jacqui Cameron needed something to do while she was in the hospital with her awesome son Rylan (he had brain surgery and spent a month in Vancouver) So a bunch of girls decided to make baby hats and donate them to the hospital. I made <I want to say around 54> and the first half of them were donated. I even saw a picture of a baby wearing one of the hats I made. (Warmed my heart!) 


I have a new'ish hobby now. I like to sew.. I started sewing cloth diapers.(I am getting good too) The cloth diaper thing all started when I saw some videos on YouTube about families who cloth diaper their kids. First  I thought Ewe that's gross. But then I really got to thinking about it. And it seems like a pretty okay idea to me! First off WAY cheaper. Second disposable diapers sit in landfills for over 500 years 'they' say. And THAT is GROSS! Either way Alex and I decided we would give it a try. So for one day when we make a human as a result of our occasional coitus, I will have diapers to put them in! For WAY cheaper! I am all about cheaper! 


Anyway... Here I sit in my bathtub (I HAVE A BATHTUB AGAIN!!) my little toes are starting to look like the California Raisins, and I am SURE that Alex is wondering what the hell is wrong with me! (I have been in here for about an hour... I missed my bath tub!) 


I am fully aware that this blog post will be a cluster fu*k of thoughts.... But that is something that y'all will have to deal with!!! I just popped by to say HEY! and I might be around for a little while longer on this blog thing.. Or maybe I will post this and disappear for another 9 months. And If I did that would be okay too.  


So on that note... I'M BACK!!
