Ahh It’s officially Baseball season. :] Absolutely LOVE my Atlanta Braves!

Freaking a, man. I’ve been in the moodiest, bitchiest, whiniest mood for like 1.5 weeks now. Erghh! But I don’t even know why. I love my life, but people just tend to piss me off! lol. And it’s been with the littlest things too. >:[

I’m sick of hearing about stupid things. I really wish that I could just delete like, everyone on Facebook except for a select few.. but then I know there might be a time when I need someone I deleted. Facebook is such a dilemma in itself. Everyone’s writing all these college papers on why “Facebook” and other “Social Networking” sites are such negative influences in peoples lives, and I definitely agree. There are more cons than pros. Although on the Bert Show this morning, they said that research shows that Social Networking sites are a way to release stress, and people do that instead of going to therapy. Like it’s almost like a reassurance type of deal. Like, when someone goes on a diet, they feel the need to tell everyone around them that way people know and can confront you when you’re eating something unhealthy. And when you type something on Facebook or whatever, then do the complete opposite, someone is going to confront you about it.. I dunno if anyone 1. reads this or 2. understands what I’m saying..
But, then Social Networks have all this negativity & bullying, and just stupid drama. Who wants to be around that?? Because definitely not me. I don’t care what “he said/she said and you’re not a whore” kind of stuff. I want to know what people are REALLY up to. Like, where you’re headed in life, what you’ve overcome in life-how it’s effected you. I think THAT is the interesting stuff. Because half these people that post stuff online, and especially pictures.. the pictures might look good, but the stuff you post, and your attitude makes you NOT all that cute! Just saying.

Bleh. Anyways. Hope everyone had a good day. :)

I think I’ve become numb to people coming in & out of my life. I mean, it’s been happening since I was 4 years old, so how can I NOT be numb to it? But still, it hurts. I just don’t get people at all. It’s like that quote “we ignore those who adore us. adore those who ignore us. love those who hurt us, and hurt those who love us.”

Life is so good other than stupid drama, but that drama has past anyways. I have the most wonderful husband, the friends that we do hang out with are pretty awesome, & our animals are pretty much like our children. :) I don’t know what I’d do without all those things. It’s been three years since Pete & I have been together, and boy, it’s been a rough 3 years, but the best 3 years of my life. I’ve learned SO much about my life, and I have never been happier. And I just know that it’s going to continue getting better.

I would write a lot longer post, and put all my thoughts at the moment, but I don’t really have the time to do that right now. I hope everyone has a wonderful day! :)

“Trust Few, Love Many <3”

I wish I could live by the saying “The only people you need in life, are the ones that need you in theirs.”, because then life would be SO much easier. But I’m too caring to do that. I’m so sick of people taking advantage of friendships these days.. not only mine, but other peoples as well.

There’s this quote I read and posted on my Facebook last week.. “Everyone wants to ride in the limo with you, but what you need are the people who would ride on the bus with you when that limo breaks down.” Basically that’s saying that everyone wants to be great friends with you when something huge is going on in your life, but then when things are just normal or you’re going through tough times, not many people still want to be around to stick with it with YOU. If you understand what I’m saying… But I think as a friend, or a best friend, you should be there no matter what.. you should be there MOST through the “just normal” or tough times.. that way they have someone to fall back on when some things just come crashing down.

But I feel like people my age just close up.. like they don’t want any help at all. I sit here and tell people “I’m always here for you.. ALWAYS.. just a phone call away, I’d be there in a heart beat.” Because my friendships mean the world to me. I treasure them, just like you are supposed to. But I feel like, no one takes that offer. I don’t want to make the same mistake twice.. I stuck around in a not so good friendship for SO long, and I finally let it go this past October.. and that friend didn’t make any effort to amend the friendship. So I made the effort in that friendship, I ended it. It was like a one-way friendship. I feel like I’m kind of doing it all over again, but then again, I’m not sure. I mean, most people my age.. have kids.. that takes up a lot of time.. but when you’re out partying with someone else.. and I didn’t even have an invite and I’m your so called “best friend” how do you think that makes me feel? Yeah, not good at all.

I just have always wanted that “best girl friend”.. I have my husband, and he is my all time best friend.. and I have my sister, but she is also young and has so many other things that are “so important” to her.. But I just want that ONE girl, or just person for that matter, (not including my husband, I know he’s always here for me) that I know I could count on for absolutely anything, and they would also come to me for anything as well.. I’m sick of people using me and taking advantage of me. From now on.. I’ve decided.. I’m not gonna make the first effort in my existing friendships.. and in new ones, I’m gonna do it until I feel like they aren’t making it back. I’m just gonna see how things play out, and if I’m worth keeping as a friend, they’ll let me know by their actions. I love all my friends, and they know it. I just hope they feel the same way back.
