Self Improvement ? My Verbal Vomit

Hey, hey, hey and happy Tuesday to you! I had off yesterday for President?s Day, and as the first day off since the Christmas holidays it was mucho appreciated. I thank you all for your feedback on my last post, I?m going to try to start updating more and see how I feel about it. I do like writing here as it makes me feel like much less of a crazy person, but I still get a little uncomfortable since it was such a point of contention in my last relationship.

I had a lovely V-Day date with my roommate, we got our nails done and drank beer and ate wings. Personally, I feel every holiday should include beer and chicken wings, but that?s just me. Her and I also had a great conversation about how we generally feel like we?re getting ourselves more together lately, and how much better we?re feeling because of it. I?m working on three years of living in Arlington, and only feel like I?ve given it a real chance recently. For the first two years all I could do was countdown until the time when I could leave and move away, and I think it really fucked things up for me. I didn?t let myself become close to the people I was around all of the time, and as a result they didn?t let themselves become close to me.

I?ve been making more of an effort lately to see people, and hang out, and get to know people and it?s paying off because they?re finally getting to know me too. I?ve gotten a lot of ?I had you pegged completely differently? lately, and I?m getting invited to things I almost surely wouldn?t have a year ago. Does that mean I have 5 weddings and 2 baby showers between April and October, yes, but I?m excited! My roommate, Adrienne, was away for the long weekend and I usually would have used that as an excuse to not go out and do anything. Because ya know, I can?t go alone, but I didn?t. So with that in mind, let?s dive in.

Friday I drank all of the Bud Light on the planet, while playing darts and other bar with some of my work friends. I can usually muster a pretty decent game of Cricket, but saweet jesus was I on point on Friday.

This was my second double bull in a row, I went on to hit about 6 more

I was home by like 10:30-11 which meant I was up by 8:30 on Saturday. I had no intention of sitting around the house all day by myself doing nothing, so instead I took myself out on a little date. Sure, I wore my glasses but it was nice! I hit up the Courthouse theater, which is amazeballs with it?s reclining leather seats and saw Silver Lining?s Playbook. I really liked the movie, especially all the Eagles nonsense and Brad and Jen (not theeeee Brad and Jen RIP) are super cute together on screen. After the movie I went to dinner, and sat at the bar alone eating and drinking, until my friend Sharon joined me a few hours later.

wearing glasses out totally threw me off my game btw

Sunday did involve lots of lounging around, until I ventured out for trivia that night. I wasn?t the only one who thought a Sunday night trivia adventure could be fun, because 16 of my friends also showed up. We had a great time taking advantage of the Monday holiday. Even though we all SUCKED at trivia. Now I?m not sure if this makes me sad or just adult-like, but the best part of my weekend involved things I purchased for the house yesterday. One was a rug that I?ll show you once I get it (or you can go look at AP?s because I copied her since I want to be her ;) this is not news to her) and the other was a 5 drawer organizer for my bathroom.

I'm so organized, it makes me ridiculously happy

Anyway, that?s your weekend update. This week looks to be pretty standard, I?ve got a bridal shower and bach party this weekend that I?m looking forward to, but that?s about it! Hope y?all are lovely!
