It's been a little while, I know. Work has been crazy, crazy busy since the beginning of the new year, and we haven't seen any sign of it slowing down. Not that I'm complaining, busy nights at work mean bigger paychecks. What with the wedding planning and all, a little extra money here and there is always nice.
We had some set backs with the wedding planning, but in the last couple of days most of them have been smoothed over. Most of them. At one point we had our honeymoon picked out, planned, and paid for... and then we decided it wasn't what we wanted, cancelled it, and started back at square one. Our original honeymoon was a 7-day Caribbean cruise... which would have been awesome, except that we didn't want to spend out honeymoon with 1500+ people. Soooo... we're going on an 8-day self drive tour of Scotland! Since it's our goal to move there in the next few years, we thought it was a great idea for Jon to see/ visit the place we eventually want to call home. Needless to say, we're more excited for the honeymoon than the actual wedding.
Other than that, not much to report. We are going to the Old West End Festival, which is uber exciting. And we plan on going to Cedar Point the weekend of my birthday, hopefully, if all works out as planned. Really looking forward to that, I haven't been to Cedar Point since I graduated high school... so forever ago.
Oh... oh..... Oh! Jess! I have a secret. A huge secret... like uber huge secret. Like so big, it's ridiculous. However, I can't tell you about it until I see you in person... that's how IMPORTANT it is. O.O
And now, with that I bid you adieu for now. hopefully I can post something later in the week, or next week... maybe.
P.S. Jess and Marti... you guys need to post more.....

Update
I'm terrible at keeping up with this blog. But oh well. xD
Wedding planning is going well, we're probably about 75% of the way there. Just have to find a photographer, and DJ and all the big things are taken care of after that. Then it's just all the little things. We're definitely not gonna have one of those weddings where no one knows you got married and you have to find out that it happened after the fact.
It's actually really nice to have so much done already. My wonderful Matron and Maid of Honor have been so supportive, and helpful. Dresses picked out and ordered already. Couldn't have asked for two better friends in the world. Jess and Marti, I love you both bunches, you're the best sisters and friends, that's all I can say.
If you want to keep updated on wedding stuff... find my instagram, it's more or less the only place I post about wedding stuff. Too many family members are on Facebook, too many people with opinions that are unwanted, and unasked for.
Other than wedding planning, we're planning our honeymoon. Well, actually we're just finalizing details. We've already paid for our honeymoon. We're just planning travel, hotels, and what we want to do with the 2.5 days we have in New Orleans. We've never been, but there is so much to do. Fresh seafood, jazz, beignets, cemeteries, old buildings, and voodoo shops. And that's just New Orleans. After that, we're headed on a 7-day cruise to the Caribbean. Visiting Jamaica, Cayman Islands, and Mexico. So much to see, and so glad we have a bunch of SD cards for the camera. LOTS and LOTS of photos. xD
Besides wedding and honeymoon, it's just been work, work, and more work.

Where did October go?!?! o.o
So, I have been accepted into two schools for nursing. Chamberlain, which was my first choice, and Columbus State Community College. Both good schools, one so much more expensive than the other. Even as an independent student, I'd have to pay over $2000 out of pocket. Give you a hint, I don't make enough to afford that. And of course, the financial aid advisor has continued to try and push me to take out a VERY expensive private loan. Give you a hint, I don't have high enough credit score, nor a co-signer to take out a private loan. So, that's where the other school comes into play. It’s a
community college, which there is nothing wrong with, a 2 yr ADN program. After
scholarships and grants are accounted for, I’d only need about $1500 covered,
and student loans would be more than able to cover that. So, I’m going to a seminar
to get the official nursing school application process started, and hopefully,
I’ll be able to start there as soon as possible. :)
Hm, I've started the long and arduous journey of looking for a new job. I love what I do, most of the clients, and the people I work with. However, I cannot stand being underpaid, under-appreciated, and working for people that do not care about their clients, or their therapists. The only thing they care about is making money. It's pathetic, and I can't stand it. I need a place that's not so spa-like, not my kind of setting to be quite honest. So, here's hoping I can find something more up my alley soon. ^.^
Other than that, Jon and I got new tattoos the other day. They turned out amazing, as you can see in the pics below. Yay tattoos! xD

And to finish things up here, I shall be seeing my beautiful partner in crime later in the month. It is going to be a glorious 4 day weekend for me. It's going to be awesomely fun. It's been a while since we've truly been able to spend a good length of time together. I miss her desperately, and this is seriously needed. I need a girl's day... several days. xD Shopping and such. ^.^
And so, with that lovelies, I bid you adieu. Toodles. :3

Updatey fun
So, I have come to terms with the fact that no one really reads this blog anymore. Doesn't surprise me. It's nothing great. I don't even have time to update it regularly. My bad. It's called a busy, and very hectic schedule. But I'm still going to post on occasion, at least updates. I may start another section/ blog that is focused on my wedding planning adventures, body positivity, and maybe even one that is focused on massage therapy and my adventures in that along with my upcoming adventures in nursing school. Maybe. Big maybes.
But, as mentioned above, I'm getting ready to go back to school to get my ADN. It should only take about 2 years. Which means, I can continue to do what I do now, and then once I'm done, get a nursing job, and then go back , possibly, for my BSN.. maybe later on down the road if need be. It's all gonna depend on when Jon and I plan to start a family, which I won't lie, we both want to as soon as possible. ( He swears we're going to have twins the very first go around. o.o) We're hoping to wait until after the wedding, I say hoping because anything can happen. xD
Emm, news on the wedding, as of right now, there is actually quite a bit. Our first choice for the ceremony venue fell through. They were requiring us to have BOTH the ceremony and the reception at their site. However, we've had the reception venue picked out since day one more or less. But, that's ok, we found this wonderful little church in Maumee, and it's half the price that our first choice was. Score. We have our officiant, the wonderful family friend, Mr. Woods. I have my dress, which I'm currently holding off paying for, simply so that I can get another 6 months of them holding on to it. Because the girl apparently screwed up and it was ordered WAY too early. Moron. xD Hmm, other than that, we have some decoration ideas, not nothing really set in stone other than purple, blue, and peacock feathers. Otherwise, it's kinda whatever I find on Pinterest that I find well, interesting. ^.^
Jon and I went and saw my favorite movie on the big screen this past Sunday. Gone with the Wind. It has been my absolute favorite movie and probably book for that matter, for as long as I can remember. Meant a lot to me to have him willingly sit through an almost 4 hour movie ( we'll call it 4, since it's only shy by 2 mins. xD ) and not complain about it.
Umm, other than that. I've just been really busy with work, and such. Added more hours to my schedule, you know because that goes well with school. xD Anywho. I think that's enough for now. Yep. ^.^

Whoot for news
It's probably about time for a quick update. I mean it has been a few weeks. Granted it's mostly the same old, same old.
Work has be hectic, I've been picking up/ covering hours for people whenever I can, the extra cash is nice. though most of it goes right into savings for reasons. Reasons I can't say yet. I'm not exactly allowed. xD Only Jess and Martika know why... but they too have been sworn to secrecy. When the time comes, I'll post all about it on my blog of course.
In exciting news we got a kitten. Her name is Ripley, she's adorable. She's a little brat though, always wants to play when we want to sleep, and vice versa. xD The other cats are still getting used to her, but Jon and I are now apparently official crazy cat people, because we have four of them now.

We're slowing making the house more like a home, finally deciding on colors, and the types of plants we want in the garden. You know, like couples do. It's nice. It's all falling together, even if it does take some time and money to get it all done. Our biggest expense is going to be the new mattress we really need/ want to get. It's a bit pricey, but it'll be worth it for the wonderful sleep we'll get once we have it.
I've also forgotten how wonderful Netflix is. We finally got better internet service. Everything is clear and fast, we can watch Netflix properly, YouTube doesn't take ages to load, it's fantastic. Such a long overdue little thing we needed to get done. I can watch all those fun documentaries, and tv shows I love. ^.^
I'm trying to figure out where exactly March went. Where February dragged on for what seemed like ages, March blew by like nothing. It's weird. But Spring is on it's way, and it is truly welcomed... I'm done with snow and cold weather.
For the time being that's all I have to say. That may change, I have a feeling a small rant is coming up, nothing too terrible. I promise. xD
05 March, 2014
In like a Lion and out like a Lamb..... yay March
It's update time, you know, because that's fun and all. I've been good about it, makes me happy that I can at least semi- keep this updated. It's the one thing I do on a regular basis anymore. I almost never get on IMVU anymore, no one else is ever one and the reasons I used to be on all the time are no longer there (aka, depression, anti-social personality, no motivation, toxic relationship, you know the old norms). But enough of that. Onward and such.
I made a horrible and yet, great mistake last week. I picked up hours at work, lots of hours... early hours. I am not a morning person. Somehow though, I made it through and I will have made as much in only a week, as I do in an entire pay period. Heck yesh. On top of that I still have this week and tips too. Awesome. It'll be a really nice paycheck next week. I can get ahead on bills and put some into savings.
Jess and Charles are supposed to come down and visit me this weekend, really excited for that. I miss my partner in crime. Plus it's an excuse to drag Jon out of the house for couples activities like KDB; think Chuck e. Cheese for adults, kinda like Dave & Busters. I think we're all looking forward to that, being the nerdy dorks we all are. Then other activities like dragging the guys around shopping/ exploring at Easton and Mario Kart couple against couple... so excited for that. We don't get to hang out with too many couples, and the ones we do, we usually don't do much. So this is such a nice change.
Hmm, I pre-ordered Frozen, because you know, it's one of my absolute favorite Disney movies now. It's still a bit of a wait for it, but I'm excited. It was my one splurge this paycheck. I feel really good about keeping myself on a decent budget now. I never really had that ability before, but now that I have all kinds of responsibilities and bills to pay, I had to force myself to learn to budget and save money. It's good to be a responsible adult. xD

But enough of that. I don't have much else to ramble about. Other than the weather finally looks like it's decided to be spring. So excited for that. Nice warm weather, adventures, gardening. It'll be nice.
I'm finished for the time being, hopefully I'll be able to post about this awesome weekend, hopefully. Until next time! Toodles!

Bedknobs and Broomsticks ... or something like that
It's kinda about time for another more or less bi-monthly update. It works though, I suppose. Better than before where I'd go months with nothing posted here. The mobile app really helps. xD
Well, Valentine's day kinda backfired on me. I went more or less all out on it for Jon, giant Reese's cups, a sappy card/ love letter, and tickets to see Iced Earth ( our couples massage got cancelled). He however, failed to realize it was Valentine's day. Awesome. I love him to death, but damn it, he can be seriously oblivious to the world around him.
Work has been busy, but it's good. I like being busy, even if some nights I swear it's gonna kill me. I dislocated my thumb years ago, and it's weaker than my other thumb, and it likes to pop and crack a lot. So I have to find ways to work around using my thumbs, and drop more elbows, otherwise, I won't last long as a massage therapist.
Jon and I finally got around to going to Half Priced Books.... big mistake. Jess, if you read this.... it's like Ukazoo... only better. We shall go there when you come visit. Along with Cosi for the Sherlock exhibit and of course Lush in either Easton, or Polaris. Yay adventures! But back to Half Priced Books... we spent hours there, and it was awesome. Found Rant by Chuck Palahniuk, Moulin Rouge, and Chicago all for less than $12. Awesome deals.
I made a random trip to Target ( to find those pjs we saw at the one in Toledo, Jess... neither of the ones near me has them ):< ) and found the complete first season of Game of Thrones on BluRay for $30... definite score, usually it's like $50, so I'll take the discount on it I can get. Also managed to snag the Targaryen edition of season three from Best Buy for the same price as season one. Should be here in the near future. Excited for that.
I bought Jess her birthday gift, which she knows about, so I can talk about it. It's an awesome t-shirt. See the pic below if you don't believe me.

Awesome, right? Right. xD And of course, I had to order one for myself too, because it's just that awesome.
I don't remember if I mentioned it before in my past update, but Jon got me to sit down and watch The Walking Dead. Love it! Sooo much. I love zombie movies, but this show takes the cake. It's fantastic. Gory beyond belief and dramatic. Right up my alley.
Is anyone else done with the snow?! Yes, I know Toledo has gotten a lot more than the Columbus area, but damn I'm done with people who can't drive in snow and the cold in general. It's supposed to be 54 on Thursday for us, but that means lots of flooding. It was already pretty bad tonight after our freezing rain episode. Can it be summer yet?
Had a massage today, first 90 minute that I've ever gotten. Needless to say I probably won't be getting anything but those from now on. It was better than a 60 min and allowed the therapist to seriously focus on my problems and it felt wonderful. xD
Other than all that rambling the only thing I can think of is that I want/ need a kitten. I'm not ready, nor is Jon for babies of our own, so I think a kitten is a nice compromise. Right? A little fuzzy bundle of joy. xD
Ayup, I'm done. Hope you enjoyed my ramblings and mishaps for the time being.

Updated awesomeness ... yay? o.O
Well, we're done with the first month of the new year. So far so good. I'm more or less ok with how it's going so far. I wish I could get more hours at work, but that'll come as I get more experience and clients. But alas, such is life. Granted, I have been picking up a few hours for one of the other girls and even if it's only 3 hrs, it really does make the paycheck a little nicer, as do the tips. All in all, I can pay for my car and insurance, and still have a little leftover to cover groceries or something nice for myself or Jon.
Valentine's day is slowly approaching, I'm at a loss as to what to do/ get Jon. I want to do something nice for him, he's always been so wonderful to me. I was considering tickets to an Iced Earth concert ( in April), or going out to a nice supper and a movie. I dunno. Hopefully I'll think of something, and hopefully he does something nice for me too. Hopefully.
I've found that I have a relatively unhealthy addiction to the movie Frozen. Anytime there's nothing on tv lately, it's my go to movie. Not too bad I suppose, I could repeated watch The Phantom of the Opera (like I've never done that before) or Gone with the Wind. I just love the movie so much, catchy music, and lovable characters and I LOVE Elsa... absolutely adore her.
I made a horrible mistake... and my horrible, I mean wonderful mistake. I went to Easton Town Center... it has a LUSH store... I spent more than I should have, but it was wonderful. Bath bombs, and massage bars galore, ok, like 4 bath bombs, and one massage bar.. plus an awesome conversation with one of the employees which landed me free samples. Awesomesauce.
For those of you who actually still read this, I'm hoping to visit Toledo again in probably March. Sorry it's so far away. But I've picked up a lot of hours for the one girl at work, and I have things to do here. Plus, I have to budget the trip. The last one, was not so well budgeted and the last bit of the month was a little difficult, but I made it through more or less unscathed.
Other than that, it's been going well. Jon and I are strong as ever. Work adds a little tension, but we muscle through it all and are happier. It's nice to be able to be with him, to have him want me. Never thought I'd truly find that, I just thought I'd go through life being used and more or less abused. I can't express how happy I am that I don't ever have to worry about that with Jon, because I know he'd never do that.
But I think for now this is a good stopping point, I'm just rambling like I usually do.

Here's to a new year and new adventures
So, it's been a little while. Sorry about that. December was a very busy month for me. Had the final Suspect Earth show of the year. It was awesome, one of their best shows to say the very least.
Christmas has passed. It was a quiet affair for us. We made supper together and went to see the Hobbit. It was actually really nice. Made some of our own Christmas traditions. Jon surprised me with a beautiful necklace, my mama got me cast iron cookware, Jess and Charles got us some really tasty Earl Grey tea.
The new year came. Jon and I spent the evening together with a few bottles of sparkling juice, and yummy food. It was the first time in years that I didn't get to spend it with my brunette partner in crime. Kinda saddening, but there's always next year. *crosses fingers*
As those of you who actually read this know, I had a job interview back in December, it went well. Well enough to actually have gotten the job, and have been working there for a few weeks now. It's a decent place to work. A little intimidating at first, I've never worked in a therapist position before. I'll get the hang of it eventually. Besides I need the money, car payment and insurance to take care of, you know adult things.
I'm so proud of my brunette partner in crime, she was finally able to move out of her mother's house, and overly stressful environment that lingers there. On top of that her wonderfully awesome boyfriend also moved into his own apartment, so proud and happy for him as well. Congrats to both of them. ^.^
As for the start to the new year, I've decided to eat healthier, not saying diet, but less soda, and less Subway ( it's a go-to food) and less sweets. I've been promising myself for awhile that this was something I wanted to do, so now seems like a good time to do it. Been putting it off for far too long.
I even found one of the Lush stores near where I live. Can we say score?! xD I know where some of my paychecks will go now and then.
If you haven't noticed, I like to take pictures and I love to post them on my blog. It's an awesome outlet for me. I love Instagram, it's a major addiction of mine.
We have have a very happy cat and I have a very happy goof, which in turn makes me a very happy spazz.

Kitty cuddles, mermaids, and conspiracy theories
I know I said that I'd be away for awhile and that still stands. However, I thought that I'd at least update you... those of you who actually care, where life has me at the moment. It's been a little over a week now since I moved to Columbus. It's going quite well, granted yes, I know it's only in the first few weeks, but I know things are going to be just fine from now on. Things have fallen into place, as they should be. I'm still waiting on my licensure to come through so that I can find a decent job down here. Before I do that, Jon and I need to decide on a car so that I can actually go to work. Right now though, it works for us that I don't have to go into work. It means the things around the house get done. Though he's always telling me thank you for doing the laundry, feeding the cats, making the bed, or doing the dishes... things I don't need to be thanked for. I live here too, I can be helpful in as many ways as possible if I don't have a job right now.
Other than that, I've finally finished God of War III, took a while, but 10 hours to complete it for the first is apparently pretty damn good according to Jon. I'm quite proud of myself for it, I've never finished an actual video game before. xD
Emm... Mothman festival is this weekend. Can we say EXCITED?!?! ^-^ It's going to be a good weekend, and I can't wait. Neither can Jon to be honest. It's something we both really look forward to. Yay for nerdyness! xD
There's more I want to go on about, but my head has started hurting again... so I think it's time to go lay down for a bit and just try to get rid of said headache. Time for the Little Mermaid and kitty cuddles from my babies. ^.^

This may have been a mistake...
Ok, maybe not as awesome at it would seem. It actually gets pretty boring with nothing to really do. I mean the down time is nice, don't get me wrong. But today is Monday, so Keanu isn't here today, it her day off. Translation, I'm here by myself, so I don't have anyone to chit-chat with. Bleh. xD
Oh, well. It's a paycheck, I'm not going to complain too much about it. Even if info hate this job with a fiery passion, because at least I have one and I don't have to depend on my mother or father to take care of me. It's a nice feeling.
I'm both looking forward and not looking forward to my paycheck on Friday. I missed a day and half because I was I'll and had no voice. Kinda hard to do phone sales with no voice. But I may have made up for it this past weekend, I had some damn good orders and I make commission rather than hourly. So as long as I make at least what I did last paycheck, I'll be happy. That's enough to put a down payment in a used car if I choose to this month. Or it's enough to rent the moving truck to Columbus. So many choices.
This hasn't turned into a rambling blog at all. It's wonderful. What else were you expecting from me? Exactly! xD
On an even more random note, dad got grandma Bond to ride on the motorcycle, it was great.
She hates the photo, something about she's taken better pics, but we all love it.
Emm, Jon finally got his new bass. Two very impatient weeks later. It's so pretty. xD
Hmm, the only other things I can think of to being up would be that I got Keanu to start reading Game of Thrones, and she LOVES it. I feel awesome about that. ^.^; Other than that, I can't really think of anything else to say right now. Don't be surprised if there are several surveys filled out on my other blog tonight. I still have 4.5 hours of my shift tonight to sit through.
Love you all, toodles. Xoxox
