I am sucking at both Entrecard and my blog this month… with the vacation and tax day and just life in general, everything has been so chaotic.
I have a lot of memes to do so hopefully the internet (which has been down at work) will finally be fixed and I will be able to get those done today. That’s also where I used to do most of me Ecard drops, so I’m really hoping to be able to reciprocate drops so I don’t look like an antisocial poo poo head. Truthfully, I may not drop cards, and comment on a lot of my favorite blogs… but I am still reading them. I subscribe to every blog I adore just to make sure I don’t miss anything.

As much as I love spring… and the lovely weather that comes with it - well, the lovely weather outside of Texas - this time of year is unusually hard for me. I think it’s something internal and subconscious that I am not even aware of at times. It was during this seasonal period many many years ago that I had my reality turned upside down and began the itty bitty steps that led me away from the jerk of my life. Of course, I ended up taking him back after a while which then caused me to wake up and realize who I was and what I deserved from life.
I know I am being cryptic… and that’s something I promised myself I would never be on this blog. I’m here to reveal it and let it be told… but that part of me is so hard to deal with. Granted it brought me great triumph and an understanding of myself that I would never give back, but man it sucked.
Over the years, I have been asked to write a book, to document the life that is Monique, and each time I have said “no thanks”. And it’s not because I have anything to hide… but because I feel that opening certain doors would cause me to fall to pieces…. which might not be so bad if I knew how to get back up afterwards.
And that is the fear.

All right. I am back, feeling super refreshed and ready to once again kick the worlds ass.
I took several days to relax and be mindless… I didn’t even drop any Entrecard’s (gasp!).
In fact, I was so relaxed that I didn’t even do my usual freaking out when that horrendous hail storm hit us last night. I was walking around telling everyone to chiiiiiiilllllll out… I mean seriously, it was just a hail storm. Outside of totally destroying our brand new truck, busting out all the windows in our house, or potentially killing one of our girls, what else could possibly happen?
So now I can finally get around to maybe finishing the vacation stuff as well as that whole 100th post thing I’ve got going, plus I am a part of several postcard exchanges and I wanted to post a few of those here too. I have boatloads of postcards, so if any of you would like to exchange one, please let me know. When I started off I wasn’t too excited about it, but as I got more and more cards, it actually became fun.
In other news, it seems I might be getting promotion at work. Not sure if it’s a good thing or bad thing. As they say, more money = more problems. As if I need more stress in my day to day life.
With that said, I am off to finish my current batch of postcards and then kill some horde on World of Warcraft. Right now, those two things relieve my stress better than any drug can. I’m such a simple girl, ain’t I?
