So I've been a grizzly bear in hibernation lately..if grizzly bears even hibernate? I was probably asleep during that class in school.
Anywho..can spring/summer come now please? I'm on "vaca" at home in West Virginia and left cold Nashville for six inches of snow and counting. Did I not move south to be in warm weather? It's like I brought the cold weather with me. However, I will have to say that I'm thankful for growing up in West by God Virginia because atleast I know how to drive in the snow. If one snowflake hits the ground on I24 or I65 there are pileups and traffic for miles due to wrecks.
This cold weather is also less fair for girls than it is for guys. I don't think guys understand how hard it is to dress cute when it's so cold out. And you have to lug your jacket around and hope that no one takes it while your out with your friends. Spring and summer have much cuter clothes and allow you to wear those fabulous peep toe pumps you bought on clearance at the end of last season (or if you're me, the cute new BCBG pumps you found on sale at a local boutique).
Basically winter just all around sucks. Seasonal depression, nasty weather, weight gain, oh my! And just in case you don't have a mother like mine who likes to tell you every detail the news shares with the world, this is the first year ever that all 50 states had snow on the same day. And people want to fuss about global warming?
Sadly, that's all I have for now. Even with 8.8 magnitude earthquakes going on in the world followed by tsunamis, I really don't have much to say. All we can do for those people is pray and hope for the best.
TTFN (ta ta for now)!

Lessons in Life and Love
Ok, so I swore to myself I wouldn't use this blog as an outlet for my ranting, but I lied. However, this isn't me complaining about work which is what I do 99.9% of the time. Instead I'm going to drone on about something I have discovered since moving.
In college I really only had one true boyfriend. Every other guy was just a fling or we dated and it never blossomed into a relationship. Now don't get me wrong, it's not that I didn't want a relationship but I would always find something wrong with the guy and dropped him before it got serious. My last semester of college and summer before I moved I actually thought I had gotten it right. Then he decided a relationship wasn't worth it because I was moving 6 hours away.
Apparently it takes moving for guys to pay attention. I can't begin to tell about all the guys who are now texting and calling me because they "like" me and what not. Hello! Where was this when I actually still lived in WV? Why do you like me now? I mean does absence really make the heart grow fonder? I don't think so...I think it's because you want to have your cake and eat it too and think you can get one over on me. Well I don't think so honey!
To all the guys in the world, don't be THAT guy. Please and thank you!

Moving On
My name is Tracey and I'm on Coangaaaaaaa
Ok, just kidding. My name is really Lauren and I'm in Nashville but a little piece of advice to all...your push up bra CAN help you get your man.

Now, to get down to business. Yes, I am originally from West Virginia and yes, I have all my teeth, and no, I don't have a relationship with my brother other than the fact he is my sibling. However, I would like to take this time to thank all those West Virginians who give us a bad name. Especially the wonderful couple about to pop out twins on the new season of 16 and preggo on MTV. You set such a great example of us for the rest of the world to see. And everyone wonders why I moved? That should explain itself.
I also looooooooove how I get labeled "West Virginia" whenever someone asks me where I'm from at the bar. Like where I'm from should be any indication of who I am. Clearly I'm not obese and I don't have a child or an STD so STOP comparing me to the stereotype. My best friend Lori called me rude when we were at a bar one night because I got a teeny attitude with this guy. In my defense, he told me the story of how he knew the wild and wonderful state. Long story short, think about the movie "The Hills Have Eyes" and that should give you an indication of how the convo went. So me rude, yes..sorry Lori (okayyyyy???)
I am now happy to be a resident of the great state of rockytop (GO HOKIES!). Sorry, my VT tourettes flared up and I just had to rub in that bowl win again. But seriously, I love it here. There is always something to do and I'm not bound to my bedroom like I was with my old roommates in WV. My new roommate is wonderful and always has me laughing and she asks before she borrows my stuff or wants to eat some of my food (what a change a year makes!). My best friend Lori and I always have a party wherever we go, and I loooooooooove it! Everyone envies us and I have to say, if I was an outsider looking in I would envy me, too. We should seriously have our own reality show. Unfortunately with the snow this weekend we haven't been able to get out, but trust me this weekend we will make up for that.
So, I'm not that impressed with this first blog, but such is life. I'm sure I'll have much to write about tomorrow after seeing what everyone had to say about the Grammy's and since I have to return back to work after a glorious weekend off. Fair warning, I hate my job so be prepared for me to rant about it.
Peace and blessings...peace and blessings
