haven't ranted in awhiles, so...

I haven't put a rant up in awhile, and I just wanted to make sure that people knew I'm still alive and there are still things that displease her majesty, her majesty being me. :)

Let's start from the top of the list of things that have recently been buggin' me:

1. Ugg Boots on college campuses

This is a widespread epidemic. It seems as though unsuspecting young college women have stepped in colorful piles of dogshit and have been brainwashed into thinking that said colorful piles of dogshit are stylish/cute. As a lipstick feminist, I'm offended at the new generation of chicks who now believe that comfort must equate with ugliness. We're raising a new breed of women who refuse to wear heels, however low, or shoes that feature neither steel toe nor any point whatsoever because "they'll make my feet hurt!" Yeah, but come this summer you'll still be wearing pink dogshit with your miniskirt. That makes sense. I'm sticking with the Facebook group "all those wearing uggs should have their legs severed at the knees".

2. PDA

No, I'm not talking about your Blackberry or any other Personal Digital Assitant. I'm talking about the compulsion some people have to openly tongue, grope, or otherwise mangle their significant others in public. I care not if you are straight, gay, or just a slut.. I don't need to see that. It doesn't get me off to see you playing hide the salami with your gf on your lap in broad daylight. As a matter of fact, it's quite repulsive. That's why we save that stuff for dark, alcohol-fueled parties on Saturday nights--that way, by Monday we've forgotten all about it.

3. Sorority girls

This one's tricky because not all sororities are the same. Some sorority girls I've met have been very sweet. However, I am reserving this category for the whore-ority girls with giant fruit fly glasses and no sense of sisterhood. These ladies' (term used loosely.. just like them!) have the super powers of: cattiness, bitchiness, promiscuity, the ability to talk exceptionally loudly on a pink rhinestone-studded cell phone(I sincerely do not give a shit if Tracy drank so much last night that you found her in her underwear on the balcony of Chi Psi Tri. I'd care more if she'd jumped), and of course the ability to get themselves in terribly funny alcohol-related mishaps. As an RA, I'm privy to lots of things like that. But I don't find it remotely amusing to be awakened at 5am on a Saturday morning because you totally can't find your key and you have nooooooooo idea where it is because you totally had it in your pocket when you went out last night and you must have left it when that really hot guy totally had his hand in your back pocket and you knew you shouldn't have but you let him anyway cuz you were soooooooooo totally drunk! omg omg
Yeah, save it.


I know this one was mostly about me griping about my fellow women, but I've been holding that in for awhile. And having Bruce in my life is making me a little more sympathetic toward guys since there's at least one sweet one out there :). I'm sure I'll have rants for them soon enough.

Other than that, just chilling, taking my time with this whole school thing. Things are going relatively well. How are you?

I wouldn't change a thing now that you're here

I haven't been on here in ages, it seems, and I know it's not that people are reading this regularly anymore, but I just felt the urge to come and update somewheres to switch things up.

So yeah, Josh and I broke up, again.. and I'm dating a new and wonderful guy that I met on the internet. No, your eyes did not deceive you. I said the internet. And he is really wonderful. I can't begin to describe all the great things about him because part of me is just aching to get to what happened last night. Heh, before you get all worked up, let me tell you there was no sex involved. Feeling better? Okay.

So, B. is this great guy. He drives all the way from Westland to see me on his day off.. and he brings his laptop to show me a tv show that he thinks I'll like. So he comes in and we watch together sitting on my bed.. and then we end up making out, as is kind of the norm for us these days (yesterday being the second occasion for us making out). And it's great, and he makes me laugh and smile, and he turns into this completely different, sexy person who makes my palms sweaty and gross. It's just amazing to me how different he can be at different times. He's completely surprising in so many ways.. I'm like wow all the time now. Especially yesterday. And he promised he'd leave at one instead of 12 because I always want him to stay, and we began making out at like 12 minutes to 1 (because I was compulsively checking the clock hehe) and when it's like 15 after he's like, "I really have to leave." And I'm holding him above me and just whisper, "But it's so easy to stay..." and he kisses me again and he just is like, "Okay, but I'm staying until 6 and I get to take my shirt off!" Which made me giddy in the schoolgirl way. When I asked him why he decided to stay even though he made me promise not to give him a hard time about leaving earlier he was just like, "Well you're here and not there..." And I was just like :-D.

I recognize that the use of so much "like" is annoying, but I really cannot help myself. I've been giddy and amazingly happy for what seems like ages now but in real time has only been a few weeks, and it's all because of him. He takes the hard edge off everything and tinges it in a rosy glow. Everything he says is sticking with me.. :) I can't wait to see him again. It's just the lack of complications, and the fact that I only have such a limited time with him that's making it all so much sweeter so quickly, but also makes me feel safe since when I leave, it's over. So I'm just enjoying myself immensely. He's such a sweet talker that I can't wait to see him again. It'll probably be next week so I should just settle in for a long wait... :) It's all good.. He's not currently dating anyone, and neither am I, so who knows what could happen?
