Very Superstitious

I often feel the need to have a preface for things. Kinda to ward off comments on things that I have already thought through. So here is the disclaimer: I have faith in God. I do believe all things can be done through Christ who strengthens me. I walk with conscious faith in the higher being of my choosing. Thus I do consider myself a Christian. HOWEVER I'm in to astrology and I have lots of superstitions that I stick to!


Im walking out of my door headed to work. They've been painting my apartment complex for weeks now. Sooo between myself and my car are two men on ladders painting. Ppl are walking under happily not knowing the bad luck they are possibly accruing for themselves!! Although I do have somewhere to be I walk myself alll the way around the building. Yes its that serious. This time last week I had to be carried AROUND the ladder b/c I refused to walk under it or on the fake ivy they have planted!


For example here are some of the old wives tales that I know of: 
Step on a crack break your mamas back (no jk)
- Don't look into a broken mirror
- Don't make a toast w empty glasses
- Don't talk about ppl or you'll have ugly kids
- DO NOT SWEEP MY FEET!!!
-Dream about fish someone is pregnant
- A baby isn't supposed to see themselves in a mirror until a year or 6 months
- Don't take the Lords name in vain
- If it rains on your wedding thats good luck
-If you're carrying low you're having a boy
- Heartburn during a pregnancy the baby has lots of hair
- Born w a hole by your tragus you have the gift of second sight
-If during your whole pregnancy you pick the gender u want, they'll be the opposite but w your chosen sex tendencies (cough cough)
- Right hand itch ur getting money
- Left hand itch, your about to owe someone ALOT
- Eye jumping or ears burning, someone is talking about you
- Dream about an ex, they're talking about you
- DONT BREAK THE SEAL!
- If you touch the _____ you must smoke
-If you drop the _______ your mate is cheating
- New years: 1st person through the threshold of your home must be a man w money in his pocket. Don't bring dirty clothes into the new year. Cook a pot of black eyed peas and cabbage!
Deep sigh . Thats all I can think of! I think all things happen for a reason and I don't want ANY REASON for things not to go my way. Lol some of these may seem far fetched but hey, if I do go through a spell of hard times I know its not bad luck. Bc I take preventative measures!!

I don't do numbers!!!

Sooo I got this great idea to do a blog for my natural hair anniversary which is in 3 DAYS (woop woop) By that day by the grace of  baby Jesus I will have a great blog with a collage and length checks and everything :-) 
The sad thing is, had I not uploaded a picture of my big chop on Facebook the day I took those safety scissors to my head I would have NO IDEA what day this nappiversary was! :((
Lately I've been thinking about how I cannot recall the dates of things that should be significant! 
Example:
- I was in a relationship with a young man for about 9 months. I have no idea what day an 'anniversary' would occur. Nor do I know his birthday >.<  horrible. 
-Idk what day I graduated highschool
-I cant remember either of my grandmothers bday (charge it to my head and not my heart)
-what day of the year is fathers day or mothers day?
-what date will I graduate college?
-Every time I am about to write the date I check my phone! 
- I thought I met the current beaux in February. Yesterday he informed me it was October :/
As a girl aren't I supposed to come installed with some internal date book for special moments??  When was my first kiss or lame sap stuff like that?? And don't get me started on phone numbers! I know mine, my moms, and my dads. The end! Its a great thing I wasn't born at the time that each town had a specific number for 911 >.< 
Idk I will try to do better. I have a selective memory and I don't like math. Those two combined is probably why I suck at this.
THE NUMBERS I HAVE RETAINED:
May 17
March 1
Dec 30
Oct 24
Feb 28
April 10

Summer Time FINE

Ok sooo on the outside looking in I may be tiny, skin and bones, "need to eat something' blah blah blah. All the rude things ppl say to skinny ppl because apparently our lack of body fat means we dont have feelings. But I digress... Anywhoozle I am actually at the highest weight of my life.I didnt gain the freshman 15 I gained the junior 20! Today I tried to put on my favorite jeans and I couldnt get em past my knees. >.,<
     So Ash why dont you just go up a size? Good question MegaAshleigh heres my response: A HELL NO!
I refuse. I wear a size 3 and thats the end dammit! grrr So I kindly took off my too tight Levis and put on my jeggings. Pajama jeans as SOMEONE kept calling them <---- side eye of death... So anyway yea I put on my fat day pants and came on  in to work.
    *Disclaimer* By no means do I feel that I am over weight, I have no plans to be anorexic and when I look in the mirror I do not see a 300 lb girl.
 I do however KNOW that I cannot fit my jeans. And although I titled this summer time fine I would really just like to shed a few before jean seaon rolls on back around.
    In highschool I made a goal to buy 100 pairs of jeans (dont ask why, these are the confessions of a shopaholic) All of those jeans and all bought since then are a size 3-5. I am NOT donked out there is no reason I shouldnt be in those pants! grrrrr Ok I pay my student fees for a reason and I shall return to using the RAC!
    Im one of those ppl who has to write things down for them to actually exist sooo imma do a lil research on the best fitness plan to get back int to your favorite jeans and viola it WILL happen... 
   I'll do a follow up and maybe some healthy eating tips I pick up I hope anyone reading this and feeling the same way decided upon completion that theyll get summer time fine with me :())
Thanks.
