weather be better

Most of the time I feel like I have nothing to talk about when I write on here. That's why I have been massively slacking on updating it.

Today I am going to write about something extremely boring...the weather.

I'm sure that everyone and their mother has in some way experienced the "deep freeze" of 2010 in some way. Well let me just tell you, Wyoming got her fair share of ridiculously cold weather. On Wednesday night, I swear it got down to -30 degrees....that didn't even factor in the windchill. It was complete arctic tundra here. I swear if I can survive the winter here I should get a medal....at least. I might even make myself a certificate off of publisher and hang it on my wall. It would be a worthy occasion to celebrate.

What's funny though, is that I am not sure if I would rather have the freezing temperatures or the massive snow. In Michigan a legitimate snow storm would include 10 or more inches. Here, they call getting 3 inches a snow storm...I'm not even joking about that. On the radio all last week there was near mayhem at the idea of getting more than 3 inches...I on the other-hand being a Michigander, was not put off by this supposed "snow storm". I did hear that all you back home got a hearty amount of snow....I really don't miss that. So I guess all in all I would rather take the freezing temps if that means there isn't that much snow to deal with. Who knows, maybe Wyoming gets just as much snow as Michigan, it is only the beginning of January.

I was going through my camera pics yesterday and found a delightful picture that I forgot I took. It's a little late in the year already, but I didn't think anyone would mind...
Happy New Year! This little gem was downtown...isn't it so cute!

New Year, Better Andrea

My name is Andrea and I am a struggling 32 (nearly 33) year old woman. I am not married, have no children, no pets, and no real responsibilities. Yet, I cannot for the life of me, get my act together. I have a decent job that barely covers my bills. I have an apartment downtown that I love, but struggle to keep clean. I eat whatever I want whenever I want, even though my body is begging me to stop. I never exercise.  I drink alcohol nearly every weekend, to excess. I am a statistic. I am like every other wandering millennial.  I want to do better, I want to be a better and more healthy version of myself. I'm not publishing this stuff. I'm not expecting anyone to ever read this actually. I just want to write it down and declare it to myself. ANDREA... BE BETTER. I want to give myself little goals. Not goals for the future, but goals for right now. So that I can see in a week, a month, or a year from now that I was able to be better. My goals for this week: Actually

Valentine's Day....because, February

I have really uninteresting opinions about this specific holiday. I like it and hate it all at once. It's very confusing. Valentine's Day pros: Chocolate everything. I'm not a huge chocolate person, but if you want to feed me chocolate covered raisins/peanut butter/strawberries/bread, I probably will put it in my mouth. It's on a Wednesday this year. Hump day. Beautiful. I get to buy cheesy valentines for my friends and family. It's not like I can find WWE related stationary at Walgreens all year round. I have to take advantage while I can.  Gives you a reason to get a skanky hotel room with a hot tub in it. Never did that, but it sounds awesome.  I like making a big deal about dumb stuff...especially if it gives me a reason to drink prosecco with frozen berries in it.  Valentine's Day cons: For some reason, I am convinced I will receive an enormous edible arrangement. This has yet to happen. I'm not sure I even want it to, but there you go.

an uncomfortable clothing choice

For some unknown reason, Jorts have been the topic of many conversations lately. Jorts = Jean shorts. [GUEST NOTE: "Jorts” – a combination of the words “jean” and “shorts” – are used to describe the somewhat hideous attire often sported by NASCAR aficionados, Green Bay Packer fans, men over 40, and men who probably ought to be over 40. If you wear jorts, you probably have minimal relationships with women. Sometimes jorts are accessorized with a lovely cellphone belt clip and a braided leather belt, but not always, as sometimes the jorts-wearer lets the jorts speak for themselves.] I think it's because of the White Trash Birthday Bash that I recently had. Not saying that only 'white trash' wear jorts . . . just a lot of people that attended the party had them on. [GUEST NOTE: I can count the number of acquaintances I know whom habitually wear jean shorts on one finger. Although, I’m fairly certain this summer will bring more to light. HINT: Missouri.] I don'
