Hi all,

Okay, okay, it's been forever since I posted (lots of stuff going on, but more importantly, just lazy), but as my good friend said "This is the epitome of your blog site". So, this one is going to be short and sweet. Please note, I've actually done some other cool stuff, probably should post about that as well....

Cost of all this to The Broke Socialite: M'NFN FREEEEEEEEEEEEE

Ok, enough with the bragging. I had an EPIC weekend. It amazes me how I get all this stuff for free. Basically, I really was just suppose to go the parties (hey free booze is enough to make this socialite happy), but low and behold, my charming personality (hahahahahaha) scored me a free 3-day pass to concert from some man (to be nice, he's actually turned out to be nice) but BEST yet, after he gave me the ticket...HE LEFT ME THE HELL ALONE. Now that's what I call a amazing weekend (having to put on my girlish charm kills me sometimes. Just give me my drink, food, etc and leave me alone) (and yes, totally sounds bitch-y but ladies (and some gents) can feel me on this one.

Either way, my gay husband came through on the front half, so much love to him. I had a great weekend with friends (new and old) and couldn't ask for more.

So, many highlights to this weekend, but now this one is getting lengthy.

So to sum it up, here is a clip of Deadmau5 performance from the festival (I've saw this performance in a way I never seen it before (total inside joke :))



This photo also sums up Sunday (can't believe I was covered in mud, ewww and yuck (thought I did become a hippy for a nano second)

The Foreign Exchange - The Last Fall

So, my sister from another mother introduced to the group and song and I must say, it is f'ing awesome. Maybe cause I'm in a bit of funk does it sound so memorizing. Either great song and great video (slightly disturbing). Lyrics spoken so true........

It's a been awhile

Hey all,

I know it's been some time and a lot has gone on since the last post (LOTS of work travel, new apartment, PLENTY of fab events). So, I have a ton of posts that I need to get up and out.

This has definitely become an open entry into my life and the things I do and think. Nothing really profound in this particular, more of a kick in the butt for me to start writing again. My gay husband said something to me recently that open my eyes to a realization. He said "you seem real centered now". I now that doesn't really mean a lot, but it really scared the shit outta me. The fear that lies within me is when you are at peace, what comes next. It's the "what comes next" part that terrifies me. For some odd reason, I just can't envision life past peace. And maybe that's my problem, I envision peace as a short term feeling/thought/emotion etc. Now, I've never been a chaotic person (at least I don't think, you'll have to ask all my exes about that), but to be at peace, is chaos to come next? or nothing?

Life is honestly really good right now. Good with family, good with friends, getting better day by day in my relationship with God, so my confusion lies as to why I'm not doing backflips in excitement. You know, I was talking to Awesome Guy (I really need to change his name) and he said something to the effect of "I can dream big now". And as I pondered on that statement, I realized I've never truly "dreamed big". Now, here's the difference, I knew I would do amazing things, but they've all just kinda fell in my lap or just happen. My entire life has been "ok, I'm going to do...." and then I do it and it just happens. Never truly encountered an obstacle. Not saying that I want to encounter an obstacle (or is that what I'm saying, too early to confuse myself), but I've never dreamed of doing something that just seemed out of this world. Maybe that's the problem, I don't dream, I just do and maybe that minimizes my current and future goals.

I don't know. I'm sure today is just a debbie downer type day and tomorrow I'll be "Miss Assurance" again. Either way, I am glad I did this post out. Maybe now my butt will start writing again.

Hell, maybe I just need a hug

Because Valentine's Day is so far away and National Pig Out Day (i.e. Thanksgiving) is no where near, this one is for the swine lovers out there:

Enjoy!!!!

Update: My 40 Day Fast I'm getting tired

So, I'm coming towards the end of my fast.

This week is fruits and veggies only. Trying to do right by fast and leave it as that exactly, no processed foods, flour, grains CHESSE (or cheese, how I miss you).

Honestly, I feel like I'm struggling more this week than last. I guess last week because I knew I wasn't eating, I felt okay. This week, however, knowing that I'm only eating fruits and veggies, I AM ABSOLUTELY STARING. (Insight: I actually am not the biggest fan of veggies. Prior to fast the only veggies I would pretty much eat were broccoli, cauliflower and potates (and those were mostly fried)).

I can def feel a change in my body and mind. I def feel a sense of clarity, but I can also feel my body now kicking my a** because I'm depriving it of food.

Honestly, there are times this week when I'm just like forget it. I don't feel like praying, I don't feel like reading the Bible, I was just want to sit and veg (no pun intended) out. But, one of my good friends said something to me that I really took to heart. He said, "It's not like Jesus stop being Jesus for a day".  I thought about it for a sec...that was so true. I'm sure there are days when He was like "Ugh, all these sick people bugging and ish. I just want to take a break" (or at least that's what I would say), but he didn't. He helped all his brothers and sisters. He was tempted left and right, but knew his Father sent him for purpose and it was he needed to fulfill that purpose.

Okay, so clearly, I'm not Jesus (nor do I want to be, sounds like a tough job), but if he could deal with all  that was tossed his way, me not eating meat and cheese is nothing. At the end of the day, will this make me a better person, probably not, but it does allow me to begin my journey on building a stronger relationship with God and Jesus.

So, to all those who don't feel like doing certain things, I say it's okay (one: because I'm a believer of if you're not going to do whole-heartedly, then don't do it at all; two: Hey, He understands. Not the best excuse not to do anything, but he does). Just continue to work on yourself and how you can be a better bro or sis to the world.

Okay, onward to reading my gossip blogs (i know, i know, such a hypocrite, but He's working on me).
