My tree is lit, Charlie Brown Christmas is playing on my iTunes, and I'm drinking red wine.
I feel like it can't get much better than that.
Oh wait, it could. I could not be alone.
But, tonight I am, and that is okay. Because I have a Christmas tree, and Christmas music, and red wine.
I hung up a mirror/shelf/keyhook thing beside my door tonight. I love that it's so short that probably no one but me will be able to use it without bending down.
So when buying whole grain pasta, it's really a chance on whether or not the brand will be any good.
The brand I made tonight was just terrible. Saaaaaaaaaaaaad.
part of Lisa's christmas present came in the mail today, and I've got one more thing for my dad's xmas present left to come in.
I think I would like a cat.

Random Thought #76
Wow, it's been a while, eh?
Life has been busy. I got my acceptance to UT Tyler, finishing up my two classes I've been taking this semester, holiday shopping, turning 22, going to weddings, and decorating my lonely apartment for Christmas.
Found out some sad news tonight, that my dear Holly is moving back to South Carolina. I'm excited for her, and all she will get to experience, but I will surely miss her.
It's been cold and rainy here lately. Which means I get to wear coats and scarfs and hats. A winning combination, I tell you.
I have a Christmas Tree up.
Tonight I drank some red wine, and it was delightful.
I have another "He's Just Not That Into You" post to do [several more, actually]. I'll start again once I finish my final.

He's Just Not That Into You If He's Not Calling You...
Men know how to use the phone-- from the book
And we're on to chapter 2.
This one was interesting. I'm going to include texting in this realm of communication, because it's such a part of our lives these days.
My best friend Meagan and I used to contemplate on why the guy we were interested in, and who seemingly returned those interests, wouldn't call or text for days and weeks at a time.
We were constantly thinking about the male in question, so we couldn't fathom how he could just not call or text us, or forget to, or be too busy.
This was the solution to our thought conundrum:
I had read a book several years ago that described the mental process of men and women like opening up a browser on the computer. Women had a million browsers and pop-ups open all the time, and she was unable to minimize or 'x' out of the screen. Males, on the other hand, had the ability to minimize and 'x' out the screen at their convenince. In fact, they rarely had more than one browser up on the screen at a time.
Hence, we decided that males were single-minded, and if they were ever focusing on something else, then it made sense for them to not think about us.
We excused them from ignoring us because we thought it was only fair. I mean, of course we think about them all the time. We've got their 'browser' right in the forefront of our thoughts, while our browser must be minimized in their minds while they are doing important things, like working, reading the bible, spending time with their friends, not thinking about us for two weeks.....
Wait. What?
Exactly. It's a load of crap.
Oh, sure, they say they're busy. They say that they didn't have even a moment in their insanely busy day to pick up the phone. It was just that crazy. Bullsh-t.With the advent of the cell phone and speed dialing it's almost impossible to not call you. Sometimes I call people from my pants pockets when I don't even mean to. We may try to make you think differently, but we men are just like you. We like taking a break from our generally mundane day to talk to someone we like. It makes us happy. And we like to be happy. Just like you. If I were into you, you woulf be a bright spot in my horribly busy day. Which would be a day that I would never be too busy to call you.
Well, eff.
All the excuses I have ever made come rushing back to me. And all I can think is, "I am an idiot."
Because really? If he liked me? He would WANT TO CALL ME.
And the excuse that they aren't a phone person?
That's bogus.
Regardless of his dislike for talking on the phone, he should respect and care enough for you to call you, if only because he knows that it will make you happy.
If he's not calling, not texting....
He's just not that into me.
Because if he was, he'd want to talk to me. The book says so.
For the record, a man who likes you wants to spend time with you. And he'll only settle for talking to you on the phone five times a day when he physically can't get on a plane to come see you.
It's sad that I can't even fathom someone liking me that much, that they want to talk to me on the phone. But that's not the point. It means I know what I need to be holding out for. Someone who's into me, not someone I have to make excuses for.
What about if they say they are going to call, and don't? Or they forget to? What then?? I mean, that happens, right? We all do it. I can cut him some slack here, right?
No. Barring disaster... he should never forget to call you. If I like you, I don't forget you, Ever. Don't you want the guy who'll forget about all the other things in his life before he forgets about you?
If the guy you're dating [or interested in, I'm assuming] doesn't call when he says he's going to, why shouldn't that be a big deal? Because you should be dating someone who's at least as good as his word.
And of course, I enjoyed this information as well-- Really busy is just another way to say "just not that into you". The word busy is a load of crap... Remember, men are never too busy to get what they want.
Come on. Admit it. We've heard it. We've made that excuse for them
And it's just a simple, 'he's just not that into you'.
Reality hurts, but in a good way.
So note from Greg, the author:
Sadly, I can't be with you ladies all the time, fending off all bad excuses, and thereby, bad men that come your way. But what I can do is paint you a picture of what you'll never see with a guy who's really into you: You'll never see you staring manically at your phone, willing it to ring. You'll never see you ruining an evening with friends because you're calling for your messages every 15 seconds [or checking it every 15 seconds to see if he's called or texted you]. You'll never see you hating yourself for calling him when you know you shouldn't have. What you will see is you being treated so well that no phone antics are necessary. You'll be too busy being adored.
Well.
Things I had to learn this chapter:
So while reading this book, it's a little painful, a little embarrassing, and a whole lot educational.
But really? I don't want to settle. I don't want to be the girl who puts herself out there when the guy is so obviously not interested in her. So don't waste your time, ladies. If he wants you, he'll call you. He'll want to call you. He'll want to text you. He'll want to remind you that he's interested. He'll want you to know that you are on his mind.
Otherwise, move on.
A friend was telling me earlier tonight about how his roommate had been dating this girl for 6 months. The girl told the roommate that she wanted to spend the rest of her life with him, and he promptly broke up with her.
I cringed, because while I can understand her exuberance, I wonder if she was trying to hold onto something that was never really there in the first place.
Yeah, guys, we fall hard and fast. Sometimes not, but sometimes it's kind of ridiculous. We've been known to scribble down our first name with your last name. We occasionally tell our friends that we could see us together one day, married and all that jazz.
We're females. We do this.
That poor girl's mistake was telling him. Obviously, he wasn't that into her.
So, girls, keep your mouth's shut. If you like a guy, great. But don't overwhelm him. Be a little aloof. Make him beg you to spend the rest of your life with him. He should be the one laying down that statement, not you. He's chasing after you, remember? And if he's not?
He's just not that into you.
And we're on to chapter 2.

Things I had to learn this chapter:
- If he's not calling you, it's because you are not on his mind
- If he creates expectations for you, and then doesn't follow through on little things, he will do the same for big things. Be aware of this, and REALIZE he's okay with disappointing you.
- Don't be with someone who doesn't do what they say they are going to do.
- "Busy" is another word for "asshole". "Asshole" is another word for the guy that you're dating.
- You deserve a f---ing phone call. [that one was my favorite, expletive and all]

He's Just Not That Into You If He's Not Asking You Out......
Because if he likes you, trust me, he will ask you out--from the book
For the record, before I begin this blogging series over the book I'm reading [which is "He's Just Not That Into You by Greg Behrendt and Liz Tuccillo], I want to clarify something:
Unfortunately for me, most of this is nonexistent right now in my life. At all. Working full time and going back to nursing school full time leaves very little time for socializing, much less dating. So while I'm not writing or reading this because of current personal dating experiences, I am reading and writing about it because I am a female. Who occasionally likes males. And gets caught up in the ridiculous mind games that we females like to play. Actually, I don't like to play the games, they just seem to happen without my consent.
The point is really just to remind myself that whenever these crushes do occasionally pop up, not to feed myself ridiculous untruth's about myself and the current crush. I need a lovely slap in the face about how it's supposed to be, and I like to think this book would do the trick.
So, Chapter 1 Thoughts:
Men find it very satisfying to get what they want. If we want you, we will find you.
Gosh. It's really painful to hear some of this. It's even worse knowing I do the exact things that these girls do. Make excuses.
• 'Maybe He Doesn't Want to Ruin The Friendship' excuse
• 'Maybe He Wants To Take it Slow' excuse
• 'Maybe I Don't Want To Play Games' excuse
There were others, but these 4 stuck out to me the most, because in the past 7 years, I have fed these lies to myself multiple times.
I like to think that if I stick around long enough, if I give enough hints, if I come right out and say it, that will be the thing that propels my lack of a love life into a love life.
Foooooolish.
I also have made excuses for them- "they're busy, they've got a lot going on in their life, they need time, they don't know that I like them, so that's why nothing is happening".
Also fooooolish.
The author's take on not ruining the friendship?
In the history of mankind, that excuse has never ever been used by someone who actually means it. If we're really excited about someone, we can't stop ourselves--We want more. If we're friends with someone and attracted to them, we're going to want to take it further. And please, don't tell me he's just scared. The only thing he's scared of--and I say this with a lot of love-- is how not attracted to you he is.
Ouch. But really? So true. If he's interested, our friendship will only aide in the relationship, not hurt it. And eventually, [and this is truth, readers] you won't get to be friends with that male anyways. He'll start dating someone else, you'll start dating someone else, eventually marriage will come along, and that friendship that you value so much will go ka-put.
So screw the friendship. If he's worried about it, he's not into you. If you think it's important, he won't be around forever as your friend. So don't make that excuse for him. And if he makes that excuse, don't waste your time.
I'm not wasting mine.
The author's take on the going slow issue?
If a guy truly likes you, but for personal reasons he needs to take things slow, he will let you know that immediately. He won't keep you guessing, because he'll want to make sure you don't get frustrated and go away.
Well. That's good to know. We've all heard it, thought it, wondered about it. Those issues that are in his life? Sure. Maybe they're real and an actual legitimate excuse. But if we're that important to him.... he'll let us know up front what he wants.
I like that.
The author's take on not wanting to play games? [this was my favorite]
Here's the little letter that went along with this one, because I needed to hear this one so much.
Dear Greg,
This is dumb. I know you're not supposed to call guys, but I call guys all the time because I don't care! I don't want to play games. I do whatever I want! I've called guys tons of times. You're such a square, Greg. Why do you think we can't call guys and ask them out?
Nikki
Dear Nikki,
Because we don't like it. Okay, some guys might like it, but they're just lazy. And who wants to go out with Lazy Guy? It's that simple. I didn't make the rules and I might not even agree with them. Please don't be mad at me, Nikki. I'm not advocating that women go back to the Stone Age. I just think you might want to be realistic in how capable you are of changing the primordial impulses that drive all of human nature.
Or maybe you're the chosen one.
Men, for the most part, like to pursue women. We like not knowing if we can catch you. We feel rewarded when we do. Especially when the chase is a long one. We know there was a sexual revolution. (We loved it.) We know women are capable of running governments, heading multinational corporations, and raising loving children — sometimes all at the same time. That, however, doesn't make men different.
Man.
I get so frustrated with not being able to do something when it comes to relationships. The male has so much power in the initiation, and I feel like I have to sit back and wait on them. And I DON'T LIKE THAT. I want to be able to do something, I want to not be at their mercy!
But I also don't want a guy who's just not that into me. As unfair as I think this all maybe, it's still true. If he's not interested enough to pursue me, to chase me, to ask me out.... He's just not interested.
And look, the book agrees and empathizes with me--
I know it's an infuriating concept — that men like to chase and you have to let us chase you. I know. It's insulting. It's frustrating. It's unfortunately the truth. My belief is that if you have to be the aggressor, if you have to pursue, if you have to do the asking out, nine times out of ten, he's just not that into you. I can't say it loud enough: You, the superfox reading this book, are worth asking out.
Favorite sarcastic comment by Liz, the female voice of reason in the book--
But now Greg is telling us that in this situation, we are supposed to do absolutely nothing. The guys get to pick. We're just supposed to put on our little dresses and do our hair and bat our eyes and hope they choose us. Why don't you just tie my corset too tight so I can faint in front of some man who'll scoop me out of the way just before the horse-drawn carriage runs over me? That'll get his attention.
What I had to learn this chapter.....
• An excuse is a polite rejection. Men are not afraid of "ruining the friendship."
• Don't get tricked into asking him out. If he likes you, he'll do the asking.
• If you can find him, then he can find you. If he wants to find you, he will.
• Just because you like to lead doesn't mean he wants to dance. Some traditions are born of nature and last through time for a reason.
• "Hey, let's meet at so-and-so's party/any bar/friend's house" is not a date. Even if you live in New York.
• Men don't forget how much they like you. So put down the phone.
• You are good enough to be asked out.
So. Chapter 1 down, and I already feel ten times smarter about life. At the same time, it makes my life a little easier. I don't need to worry about what a guy is thinking about me. I don't need to worry about doing something to attract his attention, or sounding funny or smart or whatever all the time just to impress him. I don't need to over analyze his every word, action, and et cetera and what that might mean for me. I don't need to worry about not being available for him or whatever.
I just need to do my thing. And if he's interested, he'll do something about it. If he's interested, he won't let anything get in his way. Not even me, right?

I don't need to over analyze his every word, action, and et cetera and what that might mean for me. I don't need to worry about not being available for him or whatever.
I just need to do my thing. And if he's interested, he'll do something about it. If he's interested, he won't let anything get in his way. Not even me, right?

Random Thought #74
The Middle Eastern man at the laundry mat kept calling the nickel I accidentally got stuck in the coin slot a 'nipple'.
awkward.
awkward.

Holy goodness.
I got my letter, and I start nursing school again in January.
Yesterday was one of the most incredible days ever.
Finally started my first IV.
I've got a ton of laundry to fold, and some yoga to do.
Then sleep, because tomorrow will be busy.

Random Thought #71
Went to a friends house to watch the children in their costumes ask for candy, enjoy a few drinks, and watch The Changeling. [the 80's version]. I'm a complete wuss when it comes to scary movies, by the way. That one wasn't even supposed to be that scary, but I screamed a blood-curdling scream more than once.
Fall back on the clocks is tonight. Or now.
Church in the morning at Soma. Starbucks before.
Studying and laundry after church.
I should hopefully be getting my letter from Tyler on Monday.

DISCLAIMER: this post talks about bra's and breasts. just a forewarning.
I think I may have found the holy grail of bra's.
Comfort, support, lift without any push up or excessive padding, and fits perfectly.
Dream Angels Demi for the win.
I have not once had to readjust my straps or rearrange the ladies. It's underwire, for those who aren't a fan, but there might be the same brand without the wire. It's also got a memory foam? [so the saleslady told me] and apparently it's to help the bra conform to your breasts, not make your breasts conform to the bra, which is ingenious. I like this padding because it's extremely thin, but still provides some coverage for when there's a chill in the air. I have the lined bra's that pose as t-shirt bra's, but those really add unnecessary layering to an already large chest size. This one works fantastically.
Seriously, I don't think the girls have ever looked or felt this good. The Dream Angel also comes in a full coverage version, as well.
I plan on investing in several of these.
