THE BEGINNING TO AN END
I'm married!!! Vegas was great and I loved every minute of getting to experience it with Matt my husband. But now that I'm soon to be moving to the UK to be with Matt.. I think, that in the spirit of new beginnings it's time to bring this blog to an end.
It seems fitting that a new blog is needed to chronicle my adventures as a newly honest slut so fear not readers; I will still be around but just at a new address. It's been great fun recording the misadventures belonging to my single life and most notably - it brought me and my husband together!!
Thanks for all the good times and hope to see you at my new spot which I will hopefully begin updating more regularly in the new year once life has settled down a bit www.honestslutchronicles.blogspot.com

GETTING MARRIED
So Matt and I are getting married! What does this mean to you my lack of faithful readers? Probably absolutely nothing... but to me - lots! It is perhaps rushed and not in the usual order of things and since going public with the news I've discovered goes against the grain of a lot people (even those who I always perceived to be much freer thinkers, but I digress).
In considering this decision retrospectively I know these 2 things to be true:
1) I knew from the beginning when Matt and I started to get close that it would end this way and
2) If I try and consider an alternative, there is none!
So you see it's the right thing to be doing and I know that things are gonna be great once we're properly together and sharing the same zip code (at last)! I feel I should add that, after rereading everything I've said so far, it reads almost like I'm trying to justify getting married - but this is hardly the case!
In the last few months I've become very familiar with the notion that it's one thing to decide you're gonna do something and quite another making it actually happen. Starting a long distance relationship, then deciding to move abroad and then deciding to get married whilst only seeing each other for a few precious moments inbetween is one of the harder things I've ever done. And, one which fortunately most people can't relate to as I wouldn't wish it on anyone unnecessarily.
But I can tell you this much; it is these 2 thoughts listed above that get me through. ¶ 2:33 PM 0 comments

I know it doesn't count much in the way of a post but it was my honey's birthday yesterday and seeing as we call each other honey - I couldn't resist! ¶ 4:40 PM 0 comments

BIBLE BASHERS
I'm all for people to practice their own religious beliefs but when they try to force said beliefs on me then I start having a problem...which brings me to my point. Lately one of my sisters has taken to mail bombing me with some pretty hardcore religious email. You know the kind; 'pass this on if you love the lord', 'do you pass the test? I got 100%!' and the like.
Judge me if you will but my personal belief is that if there is a god then he's sitting up there laughing his ass off at his so-called "followers". I mean really, if god created humor would he really want people to take him so seriously? And if god created us to be independent and have choices would he really appreciate all the needy drivel about him being the only way? And if god was such a loving and forgiving god would he really condone all that shite that so-called christians spout about all the non-believers going straight to hell? (I say so-called because I have huge issue with those wife-beaters who go to church every Sunday and have the audacity to prop themselves up with self righteousness and judge others because it's okay - they're a 'Christian'...f*ckers!)
I guess what I'm saying is that I find it a waste that we were given the ability to think for ourselves yet so many people chose to accept the stuff that in most cases is droned into us as kids about the bible and religion. I think if god had known that so many would just blindly follow what ever we were told like sheep he would have saved himself the trouble and hit snooze on days 5-7. ¶ 1:47 PM 0 comments

CRAZY IS AS CRAZY DOES
You know we all have our crazy days - well, at least I'd like to think so - but this one makes me worried... Lately I've been a little forgetful. You know, walking into the other room and once there forgetting what I came for or forgetting people's names, birthdays, where I work etc etc. This kinda thing I regard as pretty normal, BUT forgetting to rinse one's hair after washing it and sitting through an entire hour of television then only realising that something's wrong whilst trying to blowdry one's hair and it's sticking to the back of your hand as you try to dry it...well that I consider a little effed up!
So there I was with my sticky hair when I finally twigged what I had done and I had to go rinse my hair out under the basin tap. I swear I was embarrassed to know myself; I think I may have even heard the cat stifle a giggle! I can't wait for Matt to get here in 2 weeks - clearly I am due for a break! ¶ 2:25 PM 0 comments

If my blog were a garden it wouldn't kick anyone's ass at the moment, infact it would probably be overgrown with weeds! As Avatar from Overworked and Underf*cked is always saying, one of the most annoying blogger habits is blogging about why you're not blogging but unfortunately I have no other news other than what's going on in my life at the moment.
Sad but true! I've been busy pressing on with all the things that I need to do to move overseas and unsurprisingly there is a sh*tload! I am going out with the girls on Thursday night and I'm looking forward to getting toffed up and looking fab **just because I can*** I deeply suspect that lots of whiskey will be consumed and I will end up staying out later than I intended and if its a really good night possibly even pushing on to somewhere else for a spot of dancing around our handbags and fending off wannabe dance partners.
This is a hope I'm clinging to at the moment because I really need the break from reality - things have gotten a bit too real lately and I'm looking forward to checking out for a few blissful hours... I may or may not blog about it on Friday depending how my hangover feels so if I don't have a good weekend! ¶ 5:26 PM 0 comments

IMMORTALITY
Good news everybody! If this poster is true then I'm gonna live forever! Hehehe... I'm not actually gonna launch into a huge tirade and bitch and moan about something in particular I'm just feeling a bit grumpy today is all. I've woken up tired the last few days and feel a bit run down and like I have a bit of a cold. I think I need to go back on the detox... I'm reading the book at the moment and they say that when you get sick it's the body's way of getting toxins out of you so perhaps I haven't done it enough.
In other news the girl I work with has resigned so that brings about some changes at work but I'm not really fussed cause soon it will be my turn to leave! Yay! Plans seem to be getting somewhere with me going to Norway and I am relieved as I think it was stressing both me and Matt out trying to figure things out before. Now I just need to pack up my shit, sell some of my shit, quit my job, sell my car and fly me and my cat overseas...
