I don't wanna do this

I'm sooo out of my mind these days. I really miss the blog and bloglovin' and my blog friends. I've not been dating at ALL. But really..I've not had any time to date.

I just got accepted into grad school! Woot woot.. so there's that.
I'm just a two weeks away from my first 5K..in which I will be running..the entire way. Kill me now.
I'm going to New Orleans at the end of May, and I have no money.
I'm in the process of trying to find an internship that isn't considered typical for grad school.
My dog is extremely sick today, I have no idea what's wrong with him..and I'm too broke to take him to the vet.
Australia dude has been MIA..and he seems to be the only one who can turn my frown upside down.
My family is having issues, but this past weekend with family was amazing and much needed.
I really could use a drink (wine, beer, rum, etc) but I'm trying to lose weight (5k coming up ppl).
I'm painting canvas to sell and just recently made one and sold it for WAYYY less than it's worth

(I didn't realize how much work it was going to take until I finished it).

Grad school stresses me out because I don't know if I'll be able to keep my job.
If I can't work while in grad school, I can't pay my bills.
If I can't pay my bills then I'll have to pull out more student loans...ugh.

Typing this out makes me want to scream, because I've not seen it all laid out like this yet.
Notice how none of this stress is caused by online dating issues, but just real life. I've whined to multiple bloggers and friends about how I wish I could take a vacation from life and just blog for a week and catch up on reading my fave bloggers (see sidebar >>).

I have, however, began sponsoring a couple blogs, and I'm loving this! Both of these ladies are so awesome. I just love being able to sponsor them. They've both offered to help me grow my blog, and I enjoy reading both of their blogs! You can check em out here:

I've also agreed to guest post more than a few times! I love it! I sometimes find myself catering more to other people's blogs (through guest posting and commenting) than my own. I'm sorry :( I'll try to be better!!

I'm hoping to have a date this weekend..possibly. Maybe that'll boost my spirits up just a bit.

It's the final countdown ♫

So remember Australia dude? You know, the tall, bearded, cheerleader dude with the awesome lifestyle?

3 weeks from now..we will hopefully finally get to meet. And I'm so stinking excited. He's suuuuupppeeerrr sweet. And respectful. And doesn't bring up sex.. mainly because he knows (from the OBVIOUS statement I have on my online dating profile) that I don't like when guys talk only about sex.

I really like him. 

Yeah, yeah...I know I've said that in a LOT of posts about other guys...shut up and let me have my moment. 

Even though a relationship is probably unrealistic with him, I'm to the point where I would love to have a reason to NOT date anymore. I've never been in a committed long distance (more than a short drive) relationship.. but I could try? Maybe it would teach me how to take things slow when it comes to dating.. maybe.

I was soooo sick for the past couple of days, so my weekend was filled with orange juice, mucinex, and Netflix. Finally feeling a little better today and working a 12 hour workday :( no fun to come back to after being sick... Oh yeah..another 12 hour work day tomorrow = kill me.
Thankfully I have Friday off! This Thursday one of my loves Sundy Best will be in Johnson City!!! I am so stinking excited! I don't typically go out on weeknights because of work, but since I get Friday off, my booty will be hanging out with the Best!!!

Check em out ;)

SMS Link Up :)

Like I've said before, this is one of my FAVORITE link-ups. And it always works out so perfectly with the online dating scene.
This is a guy I started chatting with through Tinder. Such a shame because he's pretty adorable.

I can't make this sh*t up!!

Oh and remember ginger beard that I was SUPER excited about? Here's what he said:

Me: Let's play random questions!

Him: Okay sounds good, you go first.

Me: Where do you eventually want to live, like after you've graduated and decide to settle down?

Him: I've always loved Georgia , but I'd settle for anywhere but here!!

Me: Sweet!! Okay you're turn :)

Him: What's your favorite sex position?

.....

WTF?

So at that point I sent him this long ass explanation about how that is the most irrelevant question. Keep in mind that he asked this question before asking ANYTHING about me like: what do you do in your job? I would think that might be a little more important in getting to know me. . . Needless to say we've not talked since then...

Ugh boys are dumb.
