What I'm listening to....

Kelly Rowland- 'When love takes over'
Adele- 'He wont go' (yes, I'm sick of her too but this song KILLS)
J.Cole- 'Work it out'
Kyla La Grange- 'Been better'
Rihanna ft. Jay-Z- 'Talk that talk'
Robyn- 'Get myself together'
Dirty Vegas- 'Changes'
Monifah- 'Touch it'
Melanie Fiona- 'It kills me' (hot guy from csi in vid...YEAA!)
Robin Thicke- 'Love after war' (hot vid gahh)

Ignore that last post. How depressing! I like how when I'm having a bad day/week/month I take it out on my blog and sound ultra depressing/ungrateful. Life is a bitch, I need to get over it. What do I expect? Money to rain from the sky? To drink mass amounts of tequila, have unprotected sex, and NOT be 9 months pregnant before I know it? It's easy to let the moment (and my crazy emotions) get the best of me.

Things I'm currently loving:

Bullet points
Harper (I cant wait to be best friends)
Crisp winter days with no rain
How lucky I am to have the people in my life that I do
Kaskade ft Neon Trees- Lessons in love
Being an independant woman
Infinity scarves
My crazy sex life
Christmas trees & vanilla scented candles
The pearl district at night
Stumbleupon
Tequila (i love to hate)
Boyce Avenue
$1 pregnancy tests
World Market

I am 100% uncertain about my future, and completely terrified. I have to remind myself though that God never gives you more challenges/obstacles than you can actually handle. I am constantly learning and growing from my never ending mistakes. Every day I am reminded by my daughter why I need to move forward, why I need to prove people wrong, and why I can do anything in the world that I want to do.

It's

crazy how every single relationship changes when you have a kid.

It's even crazier how all of my "friends" only come around when

they're interested in drinking.

If only....

If only I had oodles of money & a big fat pad. Sigh.

I can let my life pass me by, or I can get down and try

I actually had a few hours to myself tonight.

It was very refreshing.

I sat on my deck & ate NY cheesecake with sliced mangos,

a glass of riesling, and Maxwell on Itunes.

Life will work itself out.

One of the sexist men alive. No doubt.

Little snippet of my life from the past few weeks. Shopping to make myself feel better.

Everything is crazy as usual and most days I feel like I'm at a constant breaking point.

I can't break though, I have somebody depending on me.

Things always get better.

say what you mean and mean what you say

Long island on the top floor. Nice.

View from PCG.

I <3 Portland.

Had a lovely Thursday catching up with a couple long time friends at PCG. Great happy hour, great long islands, great appetizers, great company. I swear I wasn't there by myself, I just have no pictures of them together. Boo. Then it was off to Rontoms with Katie & that was a night, let me tell you. Tequila will do it to ya every time.

Had to throw in a pic of the boo on Easter Sunday. I wasn't even going to put together an easter basket, but I'm so glad I did. It made me feel so much better about my motherly skills. Haha.

Good night <3
