Nobody puts baillee in the corner

Hello, my dear readers. I know I haven’t written in a couple of weeks, and it isn’t fair to you. If I may, let me explain myself. 

1). I got a new job: I was offered an amazing new job at a movie theater where I get to talk about movies all day and get back to my own hood. Amy’s has been such a major part of my life for so long that it’s definitely an adjustment, but it’s a good adjustment. It’s been a hell of a past two and a half years but even with the bad, I wouldn’t change it because I wasn’t ready to leave until this very moment. 

2).My dad got diagnosed with Alzheimer’s: We knew it was the probable diagnosis for a few weeks, but it was worse to actually get the news. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t having a difficult time with it, but that’s for a whole nother blog post later this week. 

3) I went on vacation: I love Austin, and I can’t see my current self living anywhere else, but I needed to take some time away from the city. I worked the entirety of the 12 days leading up to my vacation, leading me to see all of my friends at ungodly hours of the night and morning, so I basically slept for the majority of the first two days I was home, and I didn’t have time to write and see all of the friends and family I only see a couple times out of the year. 

I’m so sorry I abonded everyone, so I’m going to try to write around 900 blog posts for the next couple of weeks to get back on track. Please don’t send me any angry sorority girl letters or start watching The Secret Life of Pretty Little Housewives or whatever shows are hip just yet. I promise I’m back.
