In case you guys were too lazy to click on the links, I'll break the news to ya. The song "Baby one more time..." was first released TEN YEARS ago. Yup. I will give you a second to think about that. Ten years. What were you doing ten years ago? I for one, was very busy playing with my Barbie (who was still married, btw) and being jealous of Yvette L's boobs. Who gets boobs and their period when they're in the fifth grade, anyway? Not me, that's for sure.
Anywho.
Today is Halloween.
Last time I dressed up for this holiday, someone was still driving Britney crazy. And I think Christina was still in a bottle.
I don't take this day very seriously and usually just see it as a(nother) day to buy and eat candy like it's going out of style. I have no plans for tonight. Other than watching a movie and sleeping. Because I'm boring like that.
Now, onto more pressing matters.
Remember how I got a job after a brief period of unemployment? Well, that didn't work out so well. I hated it, REALLY hated it and quit after a while. So, again I found myself not working. To entertain myself, I started babysitting my friend's niece part time. And I FELL IN LOVE. That little girl is the cutest thing in the world. She's always happy and singing and dancing and sometimes she gets confused and calls me "mommy" and I MELT. I also teach her lots and lots of great songs. Seriously guys, I always knew I wanted children, but now? I can't freaking wait.
Since I was only working in the evenings, I used all of my mornings to look for jobs online, go on interviews and patiently wait by the phone. Until I got THAT call. I got the job I really wanted and I'm absolutely happy. I LOVE the hours, the people I work with, my boss, the pay, the fact that you can take home some of the work and make some extra money, the fact that my boss treats us once a month to a "group outing" (the movies or Dave and Busters or dinner, etc). I love it all. So, yay.
In other news, my love life? Non existent. I seriously have not met any new guys. Even the 2 guys I work with are gay. Of course. I stopped talking to my exes and I found out SeparatedGuy (formerly MarriedGuy) is not only NOT separated but also has two kids. But that's another post for another day. Also, I had a nice pseudo heart to heart with LongTimeCrush (I haven't blogged about him yet) and in all my chick glory, I will dedicate a whole post to me over analyzing and stressing over every single word he said. And didn't say. Obviously.
Speaking of things people can't say: Raise your hand if you saw this week's Gossip Girl episode. If you raised it, let's discuss. First of all, Nate and Jenny? I soooo called it! I'm so happy for them and I loved it when GG called him "Jenny's knight in shining Armani". Second, I literally teared up when Chuck and Blair didn't get together because they can't say those "3 words, 8 letters" but I think Chuck is right. They're not the type to go on dates to dinner and a movie... They need the thrill of the chase and if they do get together, it would all be over. Which is the same situation I'm in with LongTimeCrush.
Ok, so this has been the longest post ever so if you made it all the way to here I will give you a gift. Because I love you guys. And I love the RHCP. And the Bee Gees.
Enjoy:
