Inhale....1...2....3....Exhale.....(no this is not a drug reference)

Hello All,
Sorry it's taken me so long to update this, but life's been pretty bleak for weeks now. :( Yeah I know, but instead of whining at you about it (what I want to do) I'm gonna try to highlight the few positives in my life right now (what I should do). So here it goes-

1) Living with Nikki is an absolute dream! We are getting on so well and share so many things in common (love of old jazz, Muppets, dorky jokes). There's been much laughter, understanding, and kindness in Duke 216 and for that I am super grateful. We're so happy together! :D

2) There's a guy. Ok, not quite in that sense, but I've made a new friend who is quite lovely. We've been hanging out a lot and it's always interesting to talk to him and fun to be around him. Not sure that this is going anywhere, or even if I care that it does- just simply enjoying feeling special and the company of a good-looking, kind-hearted, fun-loving, and slightly outrageously insane individual! lol. So yeah, not a huge deal, but a good sidenote.

3) Friends. So ok, they might annoy me or give me a REALLY hard time sometimes (like lately), but hey, at least I have them!

I think that's about all the gratefulness and positivity I can squeeze out of myself at this hour and day in time. More soon, I'm sure. I hope you all are well and hope to hear from you too!
Love,
Allie :)

Worst Week Ever

So this is mainly for venting purposes but this week = not so hot.
1) Had my heart broken in new and different ways I never thought imaginable.
2) Suffered the anxiety of friendship complications.
3) Worked down to the bone for days on end.
4) Had co-workers ditch responsibilities.
5) Was attacked by ants that have made my foot swollen.
6) Had to miss work cause of number 5.
7) My life is nowhere near being as together as I need it to be.
8) Blah.
Sorry to complain, but this is the sane-est way of venting I could think of. Thanks for hearing me out, whoever.

hello, yes hi it's me

Ahh, hello to the readers!!!. I’m Michael U. and I get the honor and the fortune of co-writing on Ms. Allie C.’s blog now and again. About me: Well I have horrible grammar. I hope it will show because I really pride myself on it. What thrills my days,? I like to do volunteer work, that is, any kind of volunteer work. On one of these blogs will explain my volunteer theory but it goes to the tune of “conscience volunteering (that is without the intent of personal gain) violates every selfish motivation of human nature, yet, it makes the whole world go ‘round.” Also I really like to study biology and well, in the larger picture, I guess that I am pretty thrilled with life in general. The world is a very cool place. I also share a good vibe for 12s, purple, and quotes. My opinion?, this web logging thing is gonna be a pretty cool ride. Buckle up.

Sincerely

Michael U. (you can probably call me Mike, i think)

Wells-Fargo Wagon!

Hallo, hallo, hallo. I have very exciting news about the blog you are currently reading. It will officially be shared by moi (Allie C.) and by the outrageously funny and talented writer Michael U. (you can prob call him Mike). We've decided to split the blog and I know you are all clamoring to read our updates, so without further adieu, be aware that there are now two sets of posts being created within this blog. Much love- Allie.

Welcome to My Nonsense

Hallo! Apparently- I now have a blog. Good gracious. Lol. Many of you may be wondering about the curiosity that is both my blog address and blog title. The address is explained as such: purple is my favorite color, 12 is my favorite number and who doesn't love a party? Those who know me well understand just how strongly I feel about purple and 12 (especially 12), but those who don't realize the depth of my love for these two things yet- you will, oh you will. :) As for the title of this blog, it comes from one of my favorite quotes that I think epitomizes my life (especially lately). It goes, "When the light turns green, you go. When the light turns red, you stop. But what do you do when the light turns blue with lavender and orange spots?"- Shel Silverstein, ladies and gentleman. So without further adieu- welcome to the absurdity, bizarrity, and just plain weirdness of my life.
