Celebratory Overload

Hello, blog!

So... how about March and April, huh? Whew. Really went off the grid for awhile there. School got pretty busy so I had less time to check in. At any rate, I am back now and eager to resume all vital blog functions!


Guess what day it is today? Go ahead and guess!

...............

It's my sister's birthday! I bet you were thinking the correct answer was Mother's Day. Am I right? Well it's Mother's Day too, so you're not totally wrong. Just wrong in my eyes. Anyway, I have enough trouble remembering holidays without worrying about whether any of them will come on the same day. Kind of a bitch, really. Now I have to celebrate twice as much as I normally would've had to. And celebrating makes me tired.

What can I say, I'm a lazy bastard.

But WAIT! There's more!! My girlfriend is graduating from college today. And by today, I mean literally F*CKING today. And by that I mean that there is an entire commencement ceremony and (you guessed it) celebration.

What it all comes down to is that I will spend this entire day in a constant state of celebration. And I didn't sleep last night... This is gonna be a nightmare. Complete and total celebratory overload.

Now I'd like to take a moment to stop cursing the heavens and actually say a few positive things.

To my sister:

Happy birthday!!! I love you very much and I miss you more than I ever thought possible. We used to fight nonstop and for awhile, we hardly spoke at all. And now we're both adults... It is a weird feeling. I don't know if this means anything, but I am so proud of you.

To my mother:

Happy Mother's Day!! I love you as well and I miss you too. There isn't a day that goes by that I am not reminded that I am only where I am now thanks to you. You put up with me through the worst times and were always there for the good times too. I appreciate you so much.

To my girlfriend:

Happy graduation! I know how excited you have been to finally be done with college and it is finally here! You made it through and I always knew you could. :)  I love you very much and congratulations!


So that about sums up my thoughts. I am about to embark on a day of celebration, and though I may not see each of the most important women in my life today, I will certainly make up for it by seeing each one of them just as soon as I can. I love you all!
