Got some BAWWWWWW out of my system in a previous LJ post that broke my silence prior to this post.
So YEAH HI NOT DEAD. SAME OL' SAME OL'. Blah blah.
Though I will apologize for the hormonal outburst. BLAH BLAH INSERT DISCLAIMER ABOUT HOW I DON'T LIKE TO PROVE THE STEREOTYPE THAT WOMEN ARE UNABLE TO CONTROL THEIR EMOTIONS DURING THAT TIME OF MONTH. But when my hundred pounds of overweight are making me finally start to skip monthlies, LET US JUST SAY SOME THINGS GET A LITTLE BACKED UP AND COME OUT ALL AT ONCE.
But I've already begun taking steps to combat the underlying issue (being a heifer), and hopefully I can start off slow enough that I don't get frustrated like I have every other time I'd attempted to get off my fat lazy butt and give up two weeks in. (Since we're already into month two of my "getting up off my fat lazy butt more often", I think we can call this a success already).
Sibling and I are starting to work together again instead of constantly snarling at one another. I've driven more often, leave the house regularly, if not frequently, and have begun engaging in some vanity activities like dying my hair, using pore strips, and experimenting with eyebrow wax. (THERE IS MUCH PROFANITY INVOLVED, BUT HOLY HELL DOES IT DO THE TRICK.)
I'm hoping I'll be able to get something out to family this year; I'm absolutely terrible when it comes to mailing things since I never know the proper protocol for mailing boxes and things. But this year, I'm going to do my best to figure the damn thing out, because I think my brother and I are past old enough to start participating in the annual family gift exchanges that go on around this time.
So we'll see what happens.

D'awww, he's gonna be a cute kid.
