Things I don’t want to hear as soon as I walk in the house:
Shit for not getting ashes today and the reasons I’m a “heathen”
Shit for what time I leave the house in the morning, be it too early or too late
Shit for not making my lunch at home today (or apparently ever)
Shit for coming home and being “in no mood/state to talk”
Shit I hear as soon as the...

Someone just asked me what my favorite song was.
That is so much pressure! I judge so hard based on music.
Thankful
I have ridiculous friends who discuss such important topics with me:
On what we’re giving up for Lent: I’m giving up meat for lent again. And bread… I really need to lose weight and I feel like Jesus will help me.
On a certain piece of drinking paraphernalia: I don’t remember seeing it on Sunday? What did you do with JT and I’s love child?
On what Disney Princess...

In Case You Missed It of the Day: Speaking of which, Amy Poehler returned to Saturday Night Live last night to reunite with former Weekend Update co-host Seth Meyers for a special birth-control segment of “Really?!?” which delved into all the wacky, anachronistic mishegas the Republicans were up to this week.
On the one hand, I hope Amy returns to Weekend Update more often. On...
Useless announcement: I wish my first name was Blair.
It’s my middle name, and my grandma’s maiden name. Of all 50-something of the Blair grandkids and great grandkids, I’m one of the only few who still have the name. If I have only boys, I will continue to have children until I have a daughter. So I can name her Blair.
I will say: I do love my name. Brenna Blair. It’s...

If I said I was crying before, I was lying. I am openly crying at my desk. This is the sweetest story. Perfect for today. Read it here.

Well this stupid (and heart-breakingly accurate) Thought Catalog post just set me back 30 minutes.

LOL.
Reason #1 I need to get my desk moved:
I almost just fell down the stairs……..for the third time today.
PS- I’m wearing flats.
Reason #2: I think I’m high. It smells like a dentist’s office up here. I also just spent the past 15 minutes crying tears of joy. So either the fumes are making me loopy or my parents’ strong suspicion that I’m mentally ill is correct- whichever.

Looking at my next loan payment and whimpering at my desk. Damn you, past-Brenna, for choosing to attend a private college instead of going to a damn SUNY school.

I'm so incredibly happy.
I walked into my new job, former internship, yesterday and someone waved from their office and yelled “Welcome home, Brenna!”
An hour later, I saw the same person in the hall and she grabbed me, hugged me and said “I’m so happy you’re here.”
These two events sum up my feelings about yesterday. I woke up today feeling incredibly grateful- and I know I’ll...

If All Else Fails, You Can Always Go Home →
In tears. Perfect.
I’ve recently started to feel like my physical home is not my actual home. I told one of my friends this and she gave me that look people sometimes give me whenever I say something deeper than how much I want to go shopping.
I’ve felt so uncomfortable with this realization until I read this post. Now I’m all smushy and weird on a Monday morning. It’s...
Original Les Mis Cast Members Will Appear in Film... →
I don’t really give a flying f about the original cast, I’m just so excited to own Les Mis on DVD and force my friends to have obnoxious singalongs with me every.single.day. In other news, I’m going to go listen to my Broadway musical Pandora station.

Of course, today is the day my fabulous friend from undergrad texts me and tells me she’s coming into Zeno for an interview! Great, let’s do lunch. Great, today’s the day I gave up on looking presentable. Great, I’m wearing a potato sack, my hair’s a fro and I have no makeup on.
Great, postgrad and livin’ the dream, lookin’ fabulous every day....
