There's magic in the air!

And that, my friends, is a magic called ANESTHESIA.

Coming up in a few short weeks, I'll be undergoing some lovely surgical procedures. Specifically, a tonsillectomy, septoplasty, and just for good measure, they are also going to scrape the walls of my nasal cavities down.

Are you jealous yet?

I'm telling you this so that in case you find yourself with an abundance of popsicles and dairy-free frozen treats (like maybe some lime sherbet?) in the coming weeks, bring it my way. Everyone keeps telling me this surgery is a bitch, and I believe them.

I've started preparing by procuring The Walking Dead and New Girl, and finishing up my other series I was behind on. Related side note: any good book recommendations?

I started a notepad on my phone because I come up with so many brilliant ideas I need to blog about but I'm never in a spot I can blog and then when I sit to blog, guess what? Poof! They are gone. I know that's not just me. Right?

This morning I caught a very short whiff of popcorn and instantly, my life was not complete without popcorn. It was the most intense craving ever ever ever.

I made dinner last night for the first time in weeks, other than our chosen-family Thanksgiving. I'm pretty proud of myself. Yes, dinner every three weeks is something to be proud of.

I'm jealous of Bernadette's hair (you know, from Big Bang Theory?). Her hair is a gorgeous color and it's always so adorable. I am in love with her in pigtails. I am also sort of in love with Amy Farrah Fowler.

I am super excited that today is Wednesday because I thought it was Tuesday.

A winner... finally...

would love to try it out! thanks!

Yay for Elaine! I've sent off an email and if I don't hear back in 48 hours, a new winner gets picked.

Meanwhile, I'll try to be around more often. Even if it's just to post a bunch of shit I already posted to Instagram. Deal?

You know what? I hate people.

I try to stay out of conversations about politics. Partly because I don't care and partly because it makes people stupid and petty. I'm so sick of hearing about everything related to politics. I live in a Republican state so for the last 24 hours, all I've heard about is how this country is going to hell because we reelected Obama; I'm moving to Canada (this one makes me giggle); now gays are going to take over the world; the economy is going straight to shit... Oh for hell's sake, please just shut up! It is what it is.

There are two girls outside my window throwing different sized colored balls onto the grass. It's freaking windy out there. Just go back inside because you make no sense.

I can't believe it's already November. I don't know what happened to July or August or September but especially October and I kind of want it all back. Halloween was doing a fantastic job of distracting me from my life and I was happy for a minute.

Everyone keeps posting things they are thankful for and I just want to say, I'm thankful for my husband. He really spoils me and we have an amazing relationship and all in all, everything in my life is great. Now, I wish my depression could realize that.

Related note: depression is an asshole.

I've been sick for the last week and I'm over it. I want to eat everything but then every time I eat, I get stomach pains and nausea and it's ridiculous.

Sorry for complaining. I'm thankful I don't have some sort of incurable disease. Especially because House isn't on anymore so I would never be cured.

Dear Grey's Anatomy: What the hell? Seriously, I would break up with you but I just can't.

There has been a dire shortage of cupcakes in my life recently and I really would like to resolve that.

Hulk smash!

So, Halloween is over. You've got the leftover candy and sugared-up kids to deal with for days (or weeks if they trick-or-treat like I did). You've also got pumpkins on their last limb. What do you do with them? Throw them in the trash? (The pumpkins, not the kids. Well, possibly the kids, too.)

NO WAY! Load up your pumpkins and your high-as-a-kite kids and get to Cornbelly's!

click me to make me big!

Smash those pumpkins to smithereens! Play some games and have some fun; here is a schedule of events. While you're there, enter to win a really ridiculously great grand prize - a Thanksgiving Point Holiday Escape! Seriously, this is a way better option than chucking them in the trash.

[side note: Please forgive my gratuitous use of exclamation points. I think I've ingested too much candy.]
