Featuring Regina In Being…Regina

Hello again Blog.

Sorry I didn’t write earlier. I had a pretty nice weekend. I played some Left 4 Dead with my bf and we went Christmas shopping for gifts for our families. We were standing in line at Dick’s Sporting Goods after picking up a pull cart for Jeff’s mom and this old lady comes up to us and tells us how bad the pull carts are for your back. We were just like…Um..Thanks and turned away.
I’m not a fan of snow at all. It snowed again last night and for once, the schools had a 2 hour delay so that means our streets don’t get plowed until right before the bus is going to run. That also means that I had to drive to work in slush this morning Not fun at all. Thankfully, my wonderful boyfriend cleaned off my windows before he went to work this morning. Super sweet guy.

I also just want to say that I love Oprah. She’s pretty great. Her magazine is a good read. It is uplifting and has informative articles. Sometimes she opens my eyes to different situations going on around the globe. I’m totally in the same boat with her regarding her weight issues. She keeps bouncing around with her weight due to stress and media pressure. I’m sure it’s hard to be a bigger black woman on daytime tv. I mean, look at Star Jones, she ended up getting all her fat sucked out and then she became ugly…well…uglier. haha..

Hello Blog world. I haven’t blogged in a long time and I figured I was getting a little old for Xanga and that my friends don’t really read my blogs on Myspace so here I am. I doubt very many people will read this but it’s ok. I just needed a new place to write. PLUS I think I want to start reviewing books so I needed a blog to do this. I like free books…a lot.

So let me introduce myself. My name is Regina. I’m currently living in Vestal, New York with my boyfriend of 2 years. My relationship is on a rocky point at the moment due to a recent fight but hopefully we will get over it soon. I work at a newspaper. It’s pretty interesting. I just started a few weeks ago. Today we had layoffs of people. This is my first like “real” job with like a 401k and stuff so it was shocking that they just let people go in the middle of the week, right at Christmas time but I guess people had been preparing for this for awhile.

My wonderful boyfriend and I moved up here from North Carolina so the cold weather that we are currently getting is a shock to us. It will be snowing later this week for sure. It’s also pretty scary being really far away from my friends and family but I guess I’m adjusting. Pretty much there isn’t much to do here when it’s cold…or when it’s warm either Oh well… Things will get better soon I hope!

Alright blog, that’s me in a nutshell. I’m going to go grab dinner and watch Fringe on the DVR!
