Still in Pain, But...

I am planning on going shopping once I get better. Estimation on when: the coming weekend. Estimation on how much: who the heck knows. I'm cheap as hell, so I'm likely not to spend much. Really, I just want to walk around, look at pretty things, and fantasize about having an awesome job after college that will help feed my clothing addiction.

Forever 21 is just one of the places I want to hit. I really want to introduce some lace and lines to my wardrobe but still have to figure out how. I will definitely look for Forever 21's Modern Slip Dress and the Pantomime Tri-Color Dress. Well, gotta go. Time for my meds.

Where, Oh Where, is My Gallbladder?


I have four holes in my belly and haven't been able to sit up straight since Thursday. I just had my gallbladder removed. Ugh! I had what is called laparoscopic, or keyhole, surgery. Basically, they didn't have to open me up completely which is awesome because I can get back to real life sooner. Not yet though.

The lovely and amazing Daniel, my boyfriend, has been with me this whole time, having switched shifts, taken days off, and charged i.o.u.'s that were owed to him in order to be with me. He's cooked (amazing food), cleaned, and has helped me sit up every single time.

While I waited for my meds in the car, Daniel surprised me with a stuffed pink dog! He knows me so well... I love pink, love dogs, and really love the way he surprised me while I was at my worst.


Although Daniel has been making super healthy meals I did manage to sneak in a chocolate covered cookie marshmallow (or two, actually three).


My recuperating days have consisted of soup, movies, and lovely conversations with Daniel. Part of me wants to go back to school as soon as I can, but I could really get used to this pampering. Now, if only I could get rid of these four holes and sit up on my own I'd be really happy!

The Likes and Dislikes of a Neurotic Mess

Hello there,

And Welcome.

Recently having a need to rant about something other than design, I have decided to create this place. Sure it might seem a bit shoddy at the moment but hopefully with some new metaphorical paint and fresh flowers I'll be able to fabricate a feeling of girly heaven while updating the world (or the one follower) on my misadventures in writing, diy projects, and life.
