The D word.

The D word.  The D word is the code word I use for the ex love of your young baby life and or your ex future.  We don't name the puppy these days, just call him/her... The D word.  I will go ahead and share with you that I have been fortunate, or unfortunate enough to care about two special people, both names started with D.  As does the word dating.  So... it only makes sense to us. 

So none of my blogs have necessarily been about boys.  So this one, and hopefully only this one will be about it.  Living with two beautiful and intelligent young women, there are many boys that run through the talk of everyday dinner and social talk.  Although none of us let boy talk fill the complete air of all of our conversations, they always seem to creep up at some point.  One of my girlfriends who is happily boo'd up brought it to my attention that all of her single friends are all in contact with their ex boyfriends.  I, who am perfectly happy being lonely (really I am, not just a sad plea that I convince myself of) am one hundred percent guilty of this, as are both of my roommates.  We don't keep in every day touch with them, but there is always touch.  As I date or not date others and months go by, it begins to feel weird that I have not "checked up" or the D word has not "checked up" on me.  It is nothing big, but maybe just a hello, how have you been? 
-Why?

If I ever do decide that I am ready to move into a relationship is this something that I need to kiss good bye as well? . . . Obviously the D word blog has caught me in a good mood tonight, because I am not always as positive about our "check ins" . . . Sometimes, ... often times, I want to slowly cut one, or both of the D words, mainly one though.  I think D words like to slowly string women along as a back up plan, or is that what we are doing?  Who is really guilty?  Can we really blame each other? 

Eh gross.  In my case, I really do care about the(se) D word, as a person.  We both are well, but do not go well together.  It is almost as if we like to sometimes check to make sure the flame is still there, and once we do... the same things happen and we go back to our normal lives without each other.  Phsycotic  right? .... right.  I do however know that almost all of my girlfriends have been guilty of this act on more than one occasion.  The D word.  The word to use to mention when you are walking out the door and you are asked, where are you going?  The D word, that is your answer.  A way to let everyone know, you know how stupid you are, and to remind them that they are as well because we all have our guilty pleasure, our D word.  Damn you D word. 

I can't keep up with these turning tables. 

City Sisters

Sooo when I first moved to OKC, I knew uhm.. no one.  I set out to get my first job, scared out of my knickers.  I decided to get a job at Buckle (Very top secret info, don't judge, I was 19... hater.)  Anywho, The day of my interview came up and I got a really weird freakish eye infection, where it watered constantly and I could barely look at the light.  I needed to cancel, but what kind of message was that sending?.. This girl can't even make it to her interview... NEXXXT.  So I went.  Tasha interviewed me, eye watering and all.  Little did I know, Tasha would become one of my best friends.  My first year in the city was crazy.  I dealt with a lot of things here and back home that first year and these people helped me get through, and shape the lady that I have become. 

Now four years later, everyone has gone on with their lives which have ended up winding down total opposite roads.  That is how I know it is true friendship.  Everyone is completely different from each other, and all busy with very different lives, but we all get together one time a month for our monthly girls dinner date.  Tonight was dinner date number seven.  It might seem like a simple task, but getting 5 ladies in their midish twenties together is harder than it seems.  Let me brag a bit on my Buckle ladies ;)

 Tasha and I still work together at ULTA.  She moves, I move.  She is still my boss and I love every minute of it.  She has two of the sweetest cutest boys in the world.  CJ and Davian.  <3 them  She is probably the most caring and compassionate woman a person could ever meet.  I don't know what I would do without her. 

Ty is ... Ty.  :) Ty is crazy and outgoing.. she talks all the time and jumps from subject to subject without apology.  She graduated from UCO and now is a free bird.  She works all the time so that she can play all the time.  She is always in NY, or Vegas or her next trip, to Barbados.  She is a single gal with two puppy kids of her own and loving their company way too much lol.

Rachel is hilarious.  She is very down to earth and compassionate as well.  She has two twin babies.  Kellon and Macy.  Adorable.  She is married to her Buckle sweetheart and they pretty much have the fairytale ending, although she always assures me to take my time ;)  She is from a small town as well, so I know she always knows where I am coming from. 

Dacia is so sweet and probably a bit too innocent at times.  She would give money or the shirt on her back to anyone.  We have to stop her sometimes.  She lives in the Elk City area now so we really only get to see her once a month.  She has a serious boyfriend but no children or ring as of now.









These girls are more like sisterly figures to me.  Even though I only get to see some of them once a month they are always full of big sister advice for me.  They are all extremely different and all have different plans and ideas on what success is to them.

Our dinner tonight lasted through appetizers, entrees, drinks, three and a half hours and tons of laughs.  Sometimes it is nice to get away from every day and slip into the past.  It is nice to reminisce about the good days, but it just as good to plan the future.. as long as you know you have people to keep you up through the good and bad. 
I am so lucky to have sisters like these women.  Love them all.

Scurrr I'm gonna fail.

Okay, my spring break...

My spring break was nothing crazy.. well except one night, I celebrated my 22nd birthday again somehow, and they all bought it.  (My birthday and the drinks ;)) I might of headed downtown on a week night with my roommate and some of her coworkers.  The night was uhm, a fail or a success... depending on how you look at things.  It was fun to say the least.  Let me just say this, I woke up in a closet with no shoes, an abercrombie? shirt on and a bruise on my chin.  That was the first time in yearrrsss that I have become stupid and acted like a 19 year old sneaking alcohol from their mother's liquor cabinet lol.  I suppose I thought I would bring a fun spring break to OKC? Not sure what was going through my mind but everyone woke up alive and no one drove anywhere.  The 2 most important things.

The other days of my break were spent more productively, working... working... working and a couple of movies.  Today has been a day of organizing, groceries, a jog, a teeny bit of studying and enjoying the weather.. Hope everyone else has enjoyed their break.  See you lovers Tuesday.

Thought that I would just share a sweet lil pic I took, my grandma and grandpa :)

I took a very basic photography class and got to try to attempt to find my creative side.  This is one of the pictures that I took and that I actually love.  These two kids have been through more than just years with each other.  Although I am not the biggest believer in long lasting perfect relationships, and question if I am the relationship kind of gal of times this picture makes me want to be in one eventually.  I sometimes think that I just want to be an aunt to all of my friend's children and just have a great job and maybe a fish, buuut at the end of it all do I want to be in a rockin' chair alone with 9 cats? EEk I don't know about that one...  Good thing I have plenty of time, I think I'll take it. :)

Meh, I'll throw this one in as well... he was a sweet fella I seen at a gas station and I begged him to let me take his pic.  He let me, but only after talking my leg off for almost an hour.  He was a sweet widdle ole man.  I got my picture and life lessons and he got someone to listen to him ;).  Success at it's best.
