PMS Diaries

I'm an emotional rollercoaster but I assure you that I'm fine. No, I haven't killed anyone. Yes, I'm still a walking contradiction. To be honest, I've been trying to be productive in other ways or at least, I keep telling that to myself. I closed Facebook over a year ago and recently, decided to get rid of Instagram as well. No, nothing drastic pushed me into that decision. Yes, stalking exes and coworkers will be harder but I'll survive. If I'm going to provide a reason as to why I did it, it happened after talking with one of my good friends and realizing how much time I was wasting on social media. What's the point anyway? We try to portray our lives on social media as a mix of perfection and spontaneity and for what? For a like? For a comment? I mean, I'm pretty sure at this point everyone's tired of my face, my cats and Boomerangs of my record collection. We need to get over ourselves and understand that we're not that interesting and...

"I'm doing you a favor!" Relationship boundaries: Chapter I Greetings! If you're familiar with my blog you know about the pizza incident (if not, click here ). You know, the one where you've been daydreaming about some leftovers and you finally arrive home and it's half-way there (or completely gone). Last night, I failed myself. I ordered pizza and wings for an incredible Wednesday night in by myself. Since I'm not an animal (I only ate half of the pizza and six wings), I decided to eat the remnants of the previously mentioned feast this afternoon.  As humans, creatures with consciousness, memory and common sense; most of the time we learn from our mistakes. If we did something in the past that had consequences, we do everything in our capability to avoid repeating those errors. That doesn't apply to Ryan Scott.  As I opened the pizza box and noticed a chunk of it was missing, I didn't know how to react. A couple of minutes earlier, I w...

Almost midnight and I'm awake... That only means one thing. The Red Monster has arrived. Greetings, favorite people in the world. It's my birthday week and my body is in auto-sabotage mode. My period decided to grace my life three days before her due date and I'm already borderline intoxicated with Midol and Ibuprofen.  For someone like me, anything past 10:00 o' clock is past my bedtime. I'm living on the edge by even considering being productive tomorrow after not having eight hours of sleep. But hey, I'm all about the YOLO life. Talking about YOLO, after careful consideration and a terrible hangover Monday morning, I decided not to drink ever again. We all know that's a lie but I don't think my body will be able to endure that kind of behavior anytime soon. I mean, it was fun, I had a great weekend but the consequences were destructive.  Oh! And guess who has been working out and eating healthy? This bitch right here! Wanna know why and how y...

I twisted my ankle two hours ago... I started writing this entry on April 26th and here we are, it only took me two weeks and a half. Greetings, muffins! Iiiiiit's Monday and it feels like one too. I had a couple of beers yesterday celebrating the mamas around me and as usual, I'm regretting it. Also, guess what? Yes, you're right! I'm fucking ovulating. #Blessed . But let's go back to my ankle. It was a Thursday afternoon, I was minding my business at the office and forgot to close the pet gate. A cat walked in, I freaked out, tried to chase him away but my leg was asleep so I kind of sprained my ankle. It was terrible! My legs weren't shaved and I had a three-week-old pedicure gracing my toes. I waited around seven hours for Ryan to drive me to the hospital cause "it wasn't that serious" and "it could wait". I ended up with some ornamental crutches, bandages and a fascinating medical bill for my collection. I'm still in pain an...

Is it that hard to pay someone to give me those quirky romantic comedy bangs!? Yes, it is. Very. I have serious trust issues with cosmetologists... Hello, beautiful unicorns! It's PMS week and I'm alive and able to tell my story. No, I wasn't kidnapped or banned from writing. Yes, I'm still in a relationship. Hell, I posted a #MCM picture on Instagram this week. I know, it's been a while but nothing has changed. My life continues to be an emotional roller coaster and the weather keeps being an asshole in good ol' Cincinnati. When people ask me how my relationship is going, I always answer "I haven't killed him so I guess it's fine". I think it's a pretty fucked up answer but that's the rawest reply I can provide. In all honesty, we've been pretty fucking amazing. Ryan went on a guys trip to Nashville last weekend and we've been in a honeymoon phase since he came back. Deep down I know it will be over pretty soon. Quite fran...

Am I diabetic? Is eating a bag of Oreo Thin Crisps and a bag of Baked Ruffles almost at the same time, considered dieting? I mean, they're healthy, goddamnit! Hello, folks! I'm already ovulating cause there's a lord out there blessing me unconditionally. These past few days have been crazy, to say the least. Zillow was part of my favorites and I staged some pretty amazing fake dates in my Instagram story. Delirious you're calling me? Yes, you're completely right. But... I had my reasons. I won't get into details though. That's not my style. I mean, it is but not for serious matters.  On Monday I talked about this huge zit that I had on my nose. On Tuesday I had three additional ones. Today, I checked my period tracker and the little green dot announcing my ovulation was visiting. I seriously can't catch a break! I've been craving/eating sweets all damn week. I'm killing the whole "No, I'm a salty/greasy food kind of gal" thing....
