Catty Females Rant

Hey everyone!

After these past few days, I can't help but look at Matt and think about how thankful I am for him. A few friends are having issues with their significant other. Granted, they've been together longer than Matt and I have but still.

Yes, Matt and I have our arguments - what couple doesn't? - but it's never been so bad that we almost breakup, etc. Maybe it's because we have only been together just under a year [March 20th] but still, I never want to go through what my friends have been through.

I really admire how much some of my friends have dealt with and still seem to stay strong. I'd probably lose it.


Another thing I've noticed lately is how catty some females are.

WHAT THE HELL!?!?

I told a friend of mine that she needs to move away because of all that stuff. I hate how I'm not able to be around a few of my friends when they're having issues. Hopefully things work out for her, one way or another.


Another thing that bugs me so much is girls at the bar.

It's February. I don't know how some girls can wear skirts/dresses without leggings or nylons! I was cold and wore pants. But that's not really what bothers me.

It started 2 weeks ago when this girl was dancing with a guy. It was very hard to tell if they were boyfriend-girlfriend together or just-friends together or if they even knew each other before dancing!

Anyways, so Matt's friend danced with the girl a bit then backed off because the guy started coming over. He did nothing. Later Matt's friend was really dancing with her [girl initiated it] They were really getting into it and close to the end of the night, the guy just shimmies his way between the girl and our friend. Basically staking claim.

If our friend hadn't backed off quickly, the guy would've started getting physical.

So we went back to the bar on the Friday that just passed that girl was there. I was dancing with Matt and she was basically on is butt. I'm not jealous but it was driving me nuts because he had said a few times for her to back off and we even moved away but she never got the hint.

I decided to be a little more passive-aggressive. When I had my arm around Matt's neck, I put my elbow out. Needless to say, she got an elbow in the head a few times. She got the hint and backed off.

I don't understand how girls can be like this. Get a hint! Granted, not all girls are like this. I know for a fact my friends aren't at the very least.


If any females are reading this, please make a conscious effort to stop being so damn catty.
The world needs nicer people, this isn't acceptable.


Anyways, see you in my next blog!!

Allergies in Winter?

Hey everyone!

I finally figured out why I've been getting such headaches lately!

I'm not 100% but it's either just sinus congestion or a sinus infection. For awhile I was blowing my nose every morning with half blood and half mucus. The blood was from the fact it's quite dry in my place, but with carefully placed containers of water that was adjusted. Now it's just sinus pain.

Yesterday I woke up with a major sore throat and kept spitting out mucus. Nasal drip! Now today I woke up and couldn't breath through one side of my nose.

Luckily we have some sinus medication but I also did this miracle thing called "Neti-Pot"





Basically you take warm water [they say to boil it to make sure it's safe] into the little pot, mix in the saline [ie; special salt basically] solution and pour it through one half of your nose. The water will go through your sinus' and come out the other side. Basically, do this over a sink or bucket.

Up side:
It helps allergies and sinus problems.

Down side:
You feel like you're drowning.

For me, it works better than sprays. Especially because I am very prone to nasal drip. For those who don't know, nasal drip is when mucus drips down the back of your throat and causes major irritation.
So when I poured the neti-pot through my nose, not only did my eyes water but I started to drool. [not a cute look for anyone]


Keep in mind, I don't have a cold or any cold symptoms and this is all started because of allergies. Luckily I go to the clinic next week, so I'm going to see about going back to the allergist and getting retested. I think I probably qualify for the allergy shots now - especially with last year's hay fever incident.


I'm so glad the apartment is starting to look really great. Minus random boxes that Matt has yet to go through, the living room is great. We still need curtains because our bedroom had sunshine straight into my eyes. Summer might be brutal if we don't get curtains because we get the morning sun.

I'm so picky so it'll be hard. We finally got new bedding. Grey and black. Also finally got a new trashcan! We had a silver one that was such a weird shape that when it was full, you take it out and half the trash bag was empty! Got a really good one at Wal*Mart yesterday for 15$


It's getting to be really nice out, so I open the window a lot. Definitely helps with the allergies but not great. I'm surprised how nice it's been. Especially for February! Makes life easier because since it's relatively nice out I can wear skirts with leggings.



Well that's about it

Neti-Pot lovin!
