Sensitivity Sucks

Still reeling from the awesomness of the concert last Sunday. Brandon actually got a tweet from Austin from SWD about the vids he posted from the concert, and a few from For The Foxes (me too!). I'm such a dork, but it feels awesome! Heheh!

Aside from that, nothing too crazy. Saturday is Dora the Explorer's 10th anniversary and apparently Baltimore is recognizing Dora the Explorer Day, so I think I'll take the girls to Kinder Farm Park to do some 'exploring'. :-) Got in another drama fest with the Sensitive Sally's on Facebook yesterday. Simply put, if you get that upset over such a vague status update that regards weight, YOU ARE WAY TOO INSECURE! But, they won't admit that flaw, so they try to explain their outbursts or retardedness with stupid phrases like 'Who cares how much we weigh? As long as we're happy with ourselves!' then post an update praising one end of the spectrum. I feel sorry for these people, two in particular, because the intensity of their argument shows they have deep issues in this light. Many females dislike me for A) My thin build, and B) My confidence. I know who these people are, and I hope one day they realize they don't need to hate someone because of their happiness. We can't all be so lucky to love ourselves, but I truly wish we all could. I would never say being thin is better than being big, but would I ever want to be big? Hell no. I love my body. But what someone else weighs isn't my problem. Apparently they want it to be, though. I guess, simply, haters are gonna hate. I'll just smile and wave, and know they hate me because I have something they want. :-D

BEST. TIME. EVER.

Well, needless to say, I got that night off. I was stoked when I found out, not as stoked as I was at that concert. We'll get back to that. As far as real life things, we signed up for our new place today. Looking for that perfect spot was stressing me out to no end because of the time restriction, and I realized yesterday that it's another year before Illyana goes into school, so I don't mind if we simply rent a little while longer. As long as a) It's a single family home or townhouse, b) At least two stories, c) A safe area, and d) Nicer altogether. After some research we visited our choice location today and we were so impressed, I signed on right away, although our move-in date isn't till October 29th. Heheh! I wanted to make sure we definitely had the place, as it seems to be a pretty popular choice around here. Although it's not back in my home city yet, I'm happy to not have that stress again for a little while, and happy it's still near my work so I can come home on my breaks. :-D

This weekend was phenomenal. Friday night we hit the carnival, spent loads of cash and came out with a big blow up Dora for Illyana that Brandon had to charm off a woman manning one of the games. It always works. We also got three goldfish I've named Buddy, Sprite, and Silly. When we went to Wal-Mart to get supplies for them, Brandon got jealous of my new pets and aquired himself two Betta fish he's named Dragon and Phoenix.  Saturday night Brandon and I went on our weekly date night and saw The Other Guys, got our 3lbs of candy and had a great time. I'm so happy we get to spend these times together, especially at the concerts. Speaking of, the concert was epic, to say the least. Long story short, Brandon is now best friends with For The Foxes and Austin Tofte of Swimming With Dolphins, after meeting LIGHTS last Sunday and afterwards had hours of conversation with her via WoW. That man has quite the personality! But, never fear, Austin and I had our words. I gave him hugs, got some pictures, and he signed a shirt and his CD for me. For The Foxes also all signed a shirt for me. In retrospect, that seemed dumb considering I get these shirts to show off at work and now they're signed so I can't wear them. Blahhh. Heheh! Oh well, it was a night I'm not going to forget. We always meet the most awesome people at these things. Jimmy and Scott at LIGHTS, Chris, Christine and Keith at this one...more peeps I can't list because it would be too long. :-D

Well, I should go to bed so I can get up early and tidy this Goddess forsaken home. See ya's!

I suppose a change of scenery would be nice...

I've moved my blog to this site, I was bored of the old. Considering we're moving in a few weeks, it seems fitting. Today's been rather uneventful, Brandon called earlier to ask if I planned to 'weed things out' today, as in separate the things I want to move with from the things I want to rid ourselves of. But we have no boxes at the moment, so it's in my belief that that would create a mess I don't wish to have to tiptoe around. I wish it had rained today. Brandon gets off work if it rains continuously for a while. We don't NEED him to work a full week, so I get frustrated when he doesn't get at least one day off due to rain. I feel bad for him, not many people could work 50+ hours a week in this heat, wearing long pants and carrying equipment around. Becoming a lawyer will be a very significant change from that. I'm anxious to go into work at night to see if my request off has been approved. Swimming With Dolphins is playing at a bar in Baltimore, I just found this out last night, on Sunday night. I'd love to go, especially because there's the off chance that Adam Young could be there. Brandon just go to meet his favorite musical person...my turn! I suppose we shall see.
