I don’t know what kind of tricks January was pulling out of its hat, but whatever they were I hope there’s enough to spill over for the rest of the year (and the year after this, and the year after that…and after that…!). It’s been one good news after the other here in our household, one in particular is rather exciting but I’m keeping mum about it for now. More deets in a couple of weeks maybe. :D There’s been plenty of good reasons that’s keeping me distracted lately, and this little boy here is mostly to blame:

I love him. I really do. I look at him and I feel my insides fill up with happy, multi-colored sparkly emotions. Everything about him is so FASCINATING! His teeny tiny fists that have a surprisingly strong grip on his pacifier, his spiky hair, and the hilarious way he grins and smiles when he’s sleeping. Such a doll! :D

I have to learn to manage all these distractions though. I literally stop right smack in the middle of whatever I’m doing, and would do something else that’s not even remotely on the same thread from what I was initially doing. Like I would be telling my sister about these shoes I found and then oh, wait I think I need to vacuum my room, and did anybody get that Hydro bill off my desk, I should have paid that yesterday! I have to keep reminding myself to sit down, sit STILL, and for crying out loud please write down whatever it is I plan to do next so I would stop confusing everyone including myself.

And on that note, I’m gonna go do my nails now.

Okay Holiday Poundage — no, you CANNOT stay on my thighs any longer. It’s time I deal with you the best way I can:

Yeaaaaah babyyyyyy!!! I’m upgrading my “tilt, tuck, and tight” hip-hop abs moves and will work it like they do on So You Think You Can Dance! Zel and I also got a couple of videos with Lisa Rinna of Dancing With The Stars on it, with workouts that include “Super Rumba Burn” and “Paso Doble Matador Burn”. Like WHOA. I can already feel my fats withering away just by reading the back cover of the DVD. Hahaha.

In the Friends episode where Ben was born, Rachel said she can’t believe that one of them has one of these (a baby)…then Chandler goes, “I know. I am still one of these.”

CHANDLER I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU MEAN.

I met my nephew for the first time today!! He’s so precious, I want to kidnap him and bring him home and squeeze his chubby little cheeks and teach him to call me Tita McPretty. Which I will, whether my sister likes it or not. Hahaha!

I’m itching to post his pics, but I think my sister and brother-in-law should get first dibs on that. I don’t want to be the one who steals their thunder! All I have for now is this:

Welcome to the world, my adorable little nephy! Tita McPretty promises to make her chocolate chip cookies the best in the world just for you. :)

xo

Screwy. That’s a pretty cool word. Screwy. Screwy, screwy, SCREWY.

I found my “lost” USB the last weekend while cleaning (it wasn’t lost, it was at the bottom of my drawer all along) and in it were some Polyvore stuff that I did several months ago, when all I did all day, all week, for three months, was visit that site and download torrents.

Aaaah, those were fun days.

Anyway these were in one folder, and I remember doing this wishing I had something better to do with my time other than what I was doing at that very moment. Haha!
