Kick Monday right int he face. It's totally ok.

This bi-polar weather is really getting to me. My poor little soul can't take it. "It's 80 degrees and I'm so haaaaaaaaapppppppppppyyyyyyyyyy!" but then "It's cold and rainy and I want to cry and sleep and hold my kitties." The weather really effects my mood. I know this about myself. I get seriously down in the dumps in the winter sometimes. The solution my friends is to pretend that it's still spring outside and buy a dress at old navy on sale. This way you get in the spring mind set, get a shopping high and don't kill your bank account (hello $20.00 dress).

I'm just going to keep talking about good things.

My brother will be here Thursday with my nephew.

I saw my grandmother Sunday and she has improved a lot from just last week. She can laugh again and is getting better at talking and getting more movement back.

I'm still on a Hunger Games high. The more I think about it the more I feel that the movie could not have been made any better. I also had a dream where I was Katniss last night which was great when I got to snuggle up with Peeta but bad when I was trying to not get killed! Also, that probably makes me a creeper dreaming that considering I'm 28! I need to see it again. Melissa, I know you read this so let's go!

Ok I'm feeling much better now. I'm going to get ready for work and kick this day right in the face.

Furture stint on mob wives

Obviously this jacket was a very necessary purchase. It was also on sale! Don't look at me like that!

I'm hopeless.

Mission Impossible: Boots protocal

The life of Ginny has been pretty boring this week. I have been searching for a new pair of boots and not finding anything I like. Well that's not true, I found a pair I like they are just too expensive.

$198 made by Fossil. I don't want to spend that much money for boots but they're so pretty!

The other issue is that I need knew clothes. Not want, but need. My jeans and work pants are looking rough. I have about $200.00 on an American Express gift card so do I buy a pair of boots or buy clothing?

Please let me know what you think I should do in the comments because I can't decide.

Let's move on from my first world problems.

Two bloggers recently gave me awards: Sassy Pants and You Fancy Me Mad (formerly Hug in a Cup).

Sassy Pants is like my internet doppelganger. We are so much alike it's scary. If we ever meet the world might end. The Mayans have already predicted that. I love her blog and was very flattered that she gave me a shout out.

You Fancy Me Mad is a great blog to check out for movies, tv and music. We have very similar taste so I really enjoy her blog.

Ok, I'm almost done here. I just wanted to share with you this video of Michael Buble singing a duet on stage with a 15 year old named Sam.

"Holy shit balls mom!"

Running into your #OKCupid rejects and something about a hurricane.

Happy Friday lovely readers. Us East coasters are getting ready for Hurricane Irene. Better pull my boat out of the water. I seriously hope that you know I'm kidding. If I had a boat I'd be on it right now with T-Pain and Andy Samberg.  You never know how seriously to take these things.  I mean obviously if they tell you to evacuate you should and I would not want to be near the coast on Sunday but the news just goes crazy with this stuff.  I have a flash light and candles.  I'm going to get some extra water and maybe some tasty snacks and have a hurricane party with the cats.

Speaking of cats - I saw this hoodie in Target with a lion on it and I knew I had to have it.


I don't know if I've mentioned this before but I pretty much love anything with lions or tigers on it.  Maybe it's the cat lady in me.  I also love hoodies.  How could I resist?  I didn't.

Anyways, I had an interesting T ride this morning.  I look up from my book and I totally recognize the dude across from me.  Every dating website I've been on he's messaged me.  Over the years I've been on a few dating sites off and on.  I try one out for a little bit and I either get bored, annoyed or start seeing someone so I delete my profile.  I've tried Match, OKCupid and Plenty of Fish.  Every time I put a profile up on one of these sites he is on there sending me a message.  I always ignore his messages because his profile creeps me out.  He sounds way too desperate and I get the feeling he would cling to any girl that showed him any sort of attention and there he is sitting across from me. 

He didn't give me any strange looks so I don't think he recognized me but then again he was wearing sunglasses so for all I know he could have been staring me down.

I have a track record of running into people I've rejected from dating sites.

Christmas of 2007.  I'm at a former co-workers Christmas party when I see this guy walk in who I had been on two dates with a couple months back but just wasn't feeling it.  I had starting seeing someone else so I broke it off using that excuse rather than "I'm just not into you".  He seemed cool with it at the time. 

He sees me and makes a B line directly for me.  I can tell by watching him that he's drunk which is odd considering he told me he didn't drink.

I don't drink drunk dude:  Ginny!!!  What are you doing here!  It's so good to see you!

at this point I'm having the most awkward hug of my life.

me:  Hey I don't drink drunk dude.  How are you?

IDDDD:  Oh man well this girl I was seeing just dumped me so I decided to get drunk.

WTF!  He was so anti-drinking when I met him and now he's wasted.  He poured his drunken heart out to me for a few minutes and then wandered off.  Ok, I can deal with this.  He's harmless and just upset about being drumped.

And then I see him standing up on a chair.  I don't know how I knew what was going to happen next but I did.  He's going to make an announcement.  Shit, this is bad BAD.

IDDDD:  Guys!  Guys!  I have something to say.

the whole party stops and everyone looks at him.

IDDDD:  This girl!  This girl right here!  She's a really great girl.  And even though she wouldn't date me.  I still think she's a great girl.

This is the part where I die.  I just stand there and I can only imagine the look on my face.  This is why I'm not seeing you!  Because you are out of your flipping mind!!!  The rest of the night I'm fielding questions about how I know him and I tell the truth, that we met online.  I think I turned quite a few people off from online dating that night.

The second incident happened in May of 2009.  I was at a party talking to this dude.  He seemed nice enough but I didn't know if he was my type.  While we're in the middle of our conversation he suddenly asks me "do I know you from somewhere?"  I didn't recognize this guy at all so I said that I didn't think so.  "Are you on okcupid?  Is your user name xxxxxx?"  Why yes that is my user name and I am!  Ok, freak out time, what did I do?  "Yeah we were messaging back and forth and then you just stopped responding."  Oops, sorry about that dude at party.

I was really embarrassed but must have played it off well because he wasn't too upset over it.  He found it kind of funny.  I just don't understand why this crap keeps happening to me.  Does this happen to anyone else?  Running into your OKCupid rejects?  It's a pretty horrible situation but makes for great blogging right?

I hope this doesn't turn you off from online dating.  I think it's a fabulous tool to meet new people and if anything you get some awesome stories out of it.


And now I leave you with a hurricane themed song.  Take it away Panic! at the Disco.
