And I’m Taking the Plunge

by starzskymoon on March 12, 2010

You know there are days when I sit and think about all the accomplishments I’ve had in my life.

High school graduation.

Getting married (MAJOR FAIL).

Divorce (MAJOR WIN!).

Undergrad completion.

Master’s Degree hanging on the wall.

And now I’ve reached the point in my life where I think, what else can I do?

A PhD seems kinda out there only because it will get me nothing in the path I have chosen (just like that lovely master’s I got).

Then the answer hit me . . .

Okay, really, I knew this is something I needed to do all along, but the “I’VE SEEN THE LIGHT!!!!” story just seemed so much better.

I have officially sent in my application to sit for the abhorred CPA exam.


They say it’s harder than the BAR.  The hardest exam out there a professional can take.

The overall passing rate for the nation is around 60%.

And I hope to be included in that statistic by the end of the year.

Wish me luck, bloposphere.  My first part is being taken in May.

TMIT: That Time I . . . Cried . . .

by starzskymoon on March 11, 2010

TMI ThursdayI promise all things righteous that I’m not *that* kind of girl.   I don’t cry over much.  I give off the perception that I’m overly tough and insensitive; that I have a heart of stone.  So when it comes to tears, you don’t happen to see them drizzling down my face too often . . . except for maybe when Duke loses to Maryland and ties for the ACC #1 spot . . .

But I digress.

And mom, you should totally stop reading right now because what I’m about to post is not something mother-daughter appropriate.  Then again, it’s not like I’m a princess, either.

I am a girl who is a driven hard when it comes to sex.  I like it.  I’ll admit it.  Nay, I love it.   And sex is sex is sex.  Sure, it can get emotional at times, but most times I bone to release frustration, anger . . . what have you.  And no, it doesn’t always have to be sex with a partner.  I do do the *unthinkable* and *unspeakable*.  I mean, remember that post when I showed you all a picture of my friend?

I thought so.

So this week had been extremely rough on me.  In fact, the past few weeks have been rough.  I’m sure the majority of you have gathered that from my posting lately though.  I haven’t exactly been my self . . . I’ve kinda been that angry, crazy cat woman lurking in the shadows, just waiting to pounce on your face if you dare make a false move.

Moving on.

Since A hadn’t exactly been feeling up to par lately, I’ve been a little . . . neglected in that department.  And when I feel neglected, I start to get, well, cranky.  I mean, who wouldn’t in all honesty?  I like my love.

Finally, we had a breakthrough this week and we were ready to go! go! go!

And my levels kept rising . . .

and rising . . .

and rising . . .

until finally the inevitable happened and BAM!  Miracles occurred.  Babies were born.  Angels sang . . .

And I . . .

I, my friends?  I . . .

cried.

Over an orgasm.

Randomness That Makes My Heart Happy AND Upset

03.10.2010

I have so many things running through my mind right now I can’t even fathom writing it all down, but alas, I’m going to try.
Firstly, this effing cast is getting on my last damn nerve.  It’s been on for two weeks now and it’s already starting to unravel.  I still have that blasted brace they [...]

Alice. Dear, Alice.

03.09.2010

I’m a huge Tim Burton fan . . .
I’m an even bigger Johnny Depp fan.  How can you say this man is not the sexiest man alive?  And I dare you to comment and tell me you think otherwise.  We may very well start a rivalry.
So putting the two of these together?  Throb-worthy.
In my eyes, [...]

Whip It!

03.08.2010

If you’ve ever seen Whip It! then you’ll have a little bit of a clue what I’m talking about.  And if you haven’t seen, well, I highly suggest that you do, mainly because it has my favorite girl crush, Ellen Page, in it.
Last night I had the pleasure of doing a tweet-up with @tigerlily13121 and [...]

Why Are You a Pussy

03.04.2010

Man,
I don’t understand you.  But then again, do you really even understand yourself?
Why is it when you get sick, you turn into the biggest baby around, demanding our attention like a puppy, pleading with us to take care of you like we’re your mother and then wanting nothing more than the love and affection we [...]

Please, Your Mother?!

03.02.2010

I had a good laugh last weekend.  So good, in fact, that it quite frankly made my entire week.  I was able to live through the whole thing solely on one truth that I learned while at my friend, M’s, mom’s house for her birthday.
You see, I get a big quick out of gossip queens. [...]

Faster and Faster They Fly

02.26.2010

Is it just me or has this week been on a rampage of speed???  I mean, really!! I don’t think I’ve ever had a week fly by as quickly as this last one has.  And the really sad thing is that I’ve posted only once this week . . . wow.  Does that tell you, [...]
