oh guys... honestly, if you're still here thanks for your patience. two weeks MIA? what the hell right? as per usual i have no real valid excuse for my absence, but if it makes you feel better i'm week #2 into my 3rd year of nursing, my face has viciously exploded into a preteen breakout, i've had 2.5 school-related panic attacks and i'm pretty sure i gained 6 lbs over the course of the weekend. some might call that impressive.

are 100 calorie snack packs still effective when you eat 3 in one sitting? just curious. asking for a friend? i need a restraining order against my fridge.WHY CAN I NOT STOP HOARDING ALL THE JUNKFOOD?!

a classmate told me i looked like katy perry today.(you can stop laughing now) i think she meant the fact that i was dressed like a 12 year old and not so much my looks. i friggin wish. don't crush my dreams. can i get russell brand with this deal?
{shirt~mossimo from target with a DIY hacked neckline}{coral pants~O'Neill from Winners $10, maybe that was a hint no one else wanted them?}{shoes~payless}

all time favourite meal. i could eat mexican food everyday. in fact... maybe i do? 6lbs story completely unrelated. (totally a lie.)


I hate Fall. Perhaps a risky statement considering the loads of blogs I've been reading lately (oh yes I still stalk you even when I'm not posting) filled their eager anticipation of Autumn's rude cold snap.
Fall is totally bullshit guys, here's why:
- back to no social life (school). yes I like learning and no i don't want to be in university forever, but being in a state of panic for three consecutive months starting the moment school begins is not something i actively look forward to ya know?
- cold/rainy weather. perhaps you live super south and your idea of "layering" is an extra tank top and a decorative scarf... heck i'd look forward to weather like that too if your Fall means 20C degrees instead of 40C. but where i live the only thing i want to wear when i wake up in the pitch dark, -5 degree morning is an ugly ass heavy winter jacket, old (but warm as hell) fleece pants and a scowl. trendy among elite canadians.
- clothing colour options. i went on a little wardrobe update shopping trip last week and was more than annoyed at the lack of hues on display. yes, i get it. dark, drab and depressing (look ma, alliteration!) seems to be the only option year after year. i walked into countless stores and a wash of sadness fell over me each time. when i was younger i wore various dark shades out of pure shyness and wanting to blend in, but i'm branching out now. i'm on a mean, loud colour streak lately and if i want to wear orange pants in september or january i most certainly will. furthermore, they should be made readily available to me year-round. weird? yes. greedy? no. wait. i mean yes.
- everything is dying and/or already dead. blooming flowers, blossoming trees, baby birds and butterflies? not for me thanks! i'm good over here in my frozen, grey wasteland staring at dead cedar corpses while trying to decided which shade of dark gross i should wear today! does this shirt go with the colour of my cold, grey soul? no? what about my attitude? ;)
10 creepers:
I
fucking
love
your
guts
out.
First: you made me snort diet pepsi into my nasal cavity when I got the email alerting me to your cute post comment.. and when it took me 5 minutes to read your post [i had to leave halfway to go blow my nose to stop the stinging] you secured your little crowded nook in the space where most people have a heart..I like to think that space is taken up by a gilded cat shaped chocolate nugget. Which is obviously rotting in my chest, which explains a lot.
You know why I'm not that mad that you've been gone for 2 weeks? because you come back with this fucking masterpiece. I'm also apparently job shadowing a sailor today, so don't mind the language. And now I just caught a glimpse of your 'tags' for this post, and i laughed so hard I startled myself. If I promise to bathe you in jewels [kinda creepy when you visualize it] and let you wear obnoxious colors year round will you PLEASE MOVE THE FUCK CLOSER TO ME. I don't think that's too much to ask really.
Ps.. the reason I love fall? I can wear indecent dresses with tights, thus making them mom appropriate. Toss in some boots and I'm a happy camper.. until the snow sets in then I'm even angrier [I'm surprised it's possible sometimes too] than usual. At least this year I have underground parking, but I also have to walk to my new studio so you better believe I'll be on quite the 3 month rant this winter.
...sometimes I get mad leaving you comments because I go off on tangents and I don't think I'm as funny as I can be. However, today I'm making up for it by quoting you on my blog and sending all 60 of my followers over to stalk you.
I'm sorry in advance.
your sister from another mister,
merl.
sooo after i clicked send for my comment, I got a 'url too long to compute' message and there's no back button on this tiny comment screen AND I ALMOST TURNED INTO THE HULK BECAUSE I SPENT SO MUCH TIME WRITING THAT AND I WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO REPLICATE IT.
thank god it worked. green really isnt my color.
Green and red match so well though Merl.
Yeah I know Lesley you are fantastic. You live in my country but the dollars it would cost for me to get to you makes me sad in the pants...I mean, sad in general. The good news is that I have you on facebook and every oportunity to stalk you from the comfort of my pjs or in this case, wet bikini.
Your perfectly illiterated sarcasm has me asking on many of occassions "Why the hell don't more people read her blog" . Perhaps because you take 2 week mini vacays to let all the clever build up so that you can make Merl snort out her nose?
Whatever, it was hilarious. I love fall though, such pretty colours that make me go..."aww look at the pretty colours"...then WINTER comes and I shake my fist, I cry and I gain weight because it's so dark in the morning I dont want to wake up to work out, it's so cold outside that all I want to do is eat.
BOO WINTER, yay fall!
YOU'RE ON FACEBOOK?!?! so yes not only have I come back to your blog again, but now you need to add me on the book. Obviously I can leave my full name on your bloggity because hellooo I have a couple businesses that help feed my cats and I kind put my full name on that shit soo.. Merl Kinzie. I except a request by the end of tomorrow or else..
Okay, so I totally didn't know that you were still in Nursing school; I thought you were already an RN! In any event, I just started my third year of Nursing as well and I know how you feel, panic attacks and all.
Oh also, can I make your top picture into your blog title, please? Its beautiful!
Linda I just read your comment over again. Your sad in the pants comment almost made me pee my pants. Thank god you're back on the book of face again, because it was a lonely month while you were gone. I too like to sit in a bikini while creeping your guys' facebook. (long awkward pause).
Furthermore, can we talk about how i lived life before Merl and Linda?! A lot of strange looks I tell ya. How do I do this top picture business?! I like the idea but I am HTML illiterate. this baby needs a clean sweep, the purple map is getting to be old news.
I can help, facebook me sometime. Or you can give me your password I can do my magic and you can reset the password after. But I'll do it when I get back from vacation mkay?
Ok, so can I join in on the Linda, Merl, Lesley sangwich (that's how Linda's mom says it...ha)?
I swear I have the same pants in olive green that I bought at Winners for $3 so I just tore my closet apart to verify and I can't find them. Eff.
Glad your back, i miss your posts when you go away!!
xXx
