Well, hubby came home this weekend after the longest 6 weeks of my life. (Seriously, I don’t even think our last deployment was that bad. Yikes.) And these two kiddos are the happiest kids in the world, and finally back to their normal behavior.

So, a few things:

Tomorrow is October 1st and there are going to be some very big changes to my blogs.

– I’m moving my free themes over to this blog, and any future ones will be published here.

– I’ve changed my username from slightlyawsm to slightlyawesomeblog!

– My usernames on all other platforms / social networks is now gabbyguzik. I considered changing the username of this blog to gabbyguzik as well, because lack of uniformity drives me nuts. But that’s not going to happen. I just decided to make my username a bit less juvenile.

– Forever working towards better written, structured, posts instead of crazy randomness that nobody’s interested in. Remind me of that next time I babble on and on.

– I updated my theme, and it is nifty as fuck — go look at it! Do you see my menu bar on the right? Do you see my comment/note inline integration in my post pages? Do you see I have a banner/badge now that you can copy to your blog to tell everyone “I LOVE GABBY’S BLOG!”? Well, I do. So make a button for yours and we can swap. Free traffic, dude.

– Also? I officially started filling out my fafsa so that I can finally go get a degree in this web design nonsense. So, don’t expect to pay $15 for tumblr themes forever. 😉 Get your butt on the waitlist for a custom theme NOW!

And, I love you Tumblr.
That is all.

We went to the Honolulu zoo in August. I have mixed feelings about trips to the zoo. On one hand I’m like “Ahh! Yay! Animals! Let’s go see them because they’re awesome,” and on the other hand, I get there, and I’m sad, “Awww, poor animals. They should be free to run around and be awesome.” Like the last photo? That makes my heart hurt. Ugh.

But— can we talk about how turtles are the cutest things ever?

This photo hurts my eyes.
Why? Well, I’m not pregnant, for one. And you certainly could guess by the bulge in my belly. I’ve had this photo for almost three weeks, and I haven’t posted it for one reason only: I hate the way I look. I hate the dimpled look of my thigh (not sure what’s up because they don’t appear to be on my other thigh.) I hate the way my tits sag, my hair looks greasy, and and I loathe that god damn belly bulge.

I’m so tired of starting to change, and then getting frustrated and giving up. I don’t want to sit here and delete photos of myself and my family just because I’m dissatisfied with my appearance. I can’t feel like this anymore.

I’m pulling out the 30 Day Shred DVD for September.
Just once I’d like to finish it. Guess we’ll see?
