pretty waste

i haven't posted for a while for the sole reason that every time i get on to this site, i forget my password. i have about three different passwords and i constantly change them into variations of the originals. i confuse myself and it's so annoying. also, aside from the world not ending yesterday,i really haven't felt the need to update. what i'm writing now is out of boredom, stalling on the dishes and excuse to not watch the latest tremors movie that nick has been obsessed with all weekend.

andrew passed out on the couch. we have to get up early for a WIC appointment tomorrow so i decided to let him get as much sleep as possible. which reminds me i actually have to do the dishes tonight so i can bathe him real quick in the morning.

our house has been so clean lately. i think the sunshine has pulled me out of my depressive state. or i'm just going through an OCD phase. but it's been really nice. i feel much more relaxed when everything is in it's place. nick picked up the living room today and vacuumed the inside of the couch. i'm generally in charge of the kitchen since it's in constant disarray after every meal. but enough about cleanliness.

this last week i found signs of andrew's first tooth and just today it popped fully out of his little gum (: i'm so excited. and then on thursday he started pulling up on furniture. pretty soon he'll be cruising and then before we know it he'll be walking. i'm hoping it's by his first birthday. i have decided for sure his birthday is going to be at manchester state park the first weekend in august. i'm going to do a toy story theme and get a buzz lightyear pinata. i've already made the guest list. it's basically the the shower list with a few people crossed out. i'm getting his pictures done in our yard (the pond, the landscape and the lighting is too beautiful to have them done in a studio). and the invites are going to include these pictures so those who are unable to come will have a nice photo of andrew anyway (: we're waiting to get the pictures done until the end of june so andrew's eyes will have time to heal.

we're also planning another trip to california in the beginning of october. i'm kind of disappointed that we won't be going for my birthday because i really wanted to spend a night in vegas (and get nick drunk enough to marry me), but i guess that probably would never work anyway. it'll still be exciting to go though. we might end up going to the san jose area anyway depending on if nick's mom moves. it'll be nice to get away no matter what.

so yesterday the world was supposedly ending. i knew it was all talk. i'm just hoping that the hype of 2012 will calm down. it's so annoying. the more people preach about religion, repentance and judgement day the more it pushes me away. i was raised to have a personal relationship with god and ever since high school my friend sierra and i have observed a trend. it's suddenly 'in' to be a christian and people (lots of people) in my life will not shut up about it. it just irritates the shit out of me. as if nobody has anything else to say that 'oh my god i love jesus.' as the saying goes "going to church doesn't make you a christian as much as standing in a garage makes you a car." i have no judgement about anyone who believes in any kind of religion, but why make a show of it? and it makes my blood boil when people don't know their facts. before you wave your hands around and label yourself anything, get your fucking facts straight. i lose a lot of respect for people who don't educate themselves. especially when it comes to controversial topics involving religion or politics. don't even get me started on politics. anyway. that was just a little rant about what really grinds my gears.

i just remembered i melted butter in the microwave to put in my pancakes and it completely exploded everywhere. just another mess to clean up.

toodles.
