The Return of Lochnesa

I'm so sad the season is over, but it was such an amazing year with such amazing people!

I've really come to terms that relationships aren't the way they used to be and finding a husband has gotten harder and harder. So freezing my eggs is the smartest approach. Now, I'm not quite sure why MJ wanted to sit in clear sight of my, uhmmm, but she was making me feel so uncomfortable! Thank goodness she moved and we were able to proceed. Hearing that I'm healthy and able to freeze my eggs was a relief! It's something I'm going to do, but I will always hope for true love and a family the authentic way.

I hated seeing how horrible MJ's mom was towards her on her birthday. I have seen MJ with kids, and I think she would be an amazing mother!

Palm Springs! Palm Springs! Palm Springs! Time to celebrate Reza's 40th and end our summer with the best people ever! We didn't waste any time before popping bottles and letting the liquor flow! It felt like we were doing nothing other than laughing and loving each other's company all night.

Well, now I'm double-fisting the whiskey and having a great time... All until I get smacked in the head by MJ's bikini clasp! WE GOT A PROBLEM! WE GOT A PROBLEM!!! But it was impossible to be mad, because we were all having so much fun and we were ALL sh-- faced!Not sure why we decided to break into Mike's room. Maybe we didn't want him to isolate himself when it was our last summer vacation together. So...we break in! He comes out of the room like Shrek's evil alter ego ready to kill me!!! Why just me? We were all trying to break in. And of course, since I'm drunk, I take it very personally and Lochnesa shows up and I decide to throw a plate. Unfortunately my drunk a-- ends up hitting Reza with the plate on accident. Hats off to my girl Asa for creeping up on me and reminding me to "hook it" and then to "double hook" because I was about to take a dip into the deep end.

And now for my favorite moment... I'm sooo happy for Adam and Reza! They are perfection together. Reza is truly blessed to have found such an amazing companion to share his life with! Mazel to you two love birds! [video_clip_url:http://player.theplatform.com/p/PHSl-B/yT7k3t_YLXoZ/embed/select/MW_XvvXlzyWU]"Parting is such sweet sorrow..."

This has been such an incredible year for me. I reconnected with my friends. MJ and I really got a chance to learn more boundaries within our friendship, which only makes the friendship stronger! I also realized that sometimes, just because someone is your family, it doesn't mean they'll have your back. It's like I always say: blood may run thicker than water, but my loyalty runs thicker than blood. I never hold grudges in life. I believe in experience and growth. I'm grateful for everyone and every experience that has crossed my journey. But I'm now an independent woman trying to establish a successful career and create my own family, and I am trying harder and harder every day to better myself. It won't be easy, and I'm sure LochNesa will show up from time to time. But as long as I have loving people there to support me, I know I'll be OK!
