 Yes Prince William and Duchess Kate have a most adorable baby boy. He came into the world at 4:24 pm London time on 22 July. I am so happy for them! I wish I was in England when the baby was born it would have been an amazing experience to see the little Prince with his royal parents and all ten million people there as well. Unfortunately I couldn't be there due to being broke so I had to watch the whole thing online. But it was live and damn it I watched the whoooole thing. It took hours. From the second the news started covering it I was there as a virtual presence. I absolutely love babies and to see this little guy who is not even twenty four hours old is incredible. Kate looked fabulous, her dress reminded me of Princess Diana's when she presented William to the world on the exact steps thirty one years ago. [Obviously I wasn't alive when that happened but I found the video online and watched it] Anyways, we all miss the dear princess. Kate is so lucky to have married William and have a baby with him. Happy birthday little Prince! Oh and in England they call diapers "nappies". That's awesome. And I painted my nails in honour [British spelling] of the baby boy. Don't they look gorgeous.

So after two days since the birth of the royal baby, Kate and William announce the little prince's name. It's the most perfect name ever, George Alexander Louis. How cute is that?! I could just die. He is not only cute but very special. He is third in line for the throne. After his dad and grandpa. Such a big responsibility to be the future king of England. I have always loved England I want to live there some day. I mean I really really really reallyyyyy want to live there! First I need a great job and lots of money. Once I have that I will make the move and be absolutely happy residing in beautiful London. Maybe develop an English accent, that would be splendid. I would have to or else I would sound like a douche from some foreign land. But by that time Prince Charles will rule as king. Although it might be Prince William as king because I have recently read that Queen Elizabeth plans to bypass Charles and pass the throne to William. So of that's true then happy late birthday William you get to be king thirty years earlier! As for Charles. . .wow man that really sucks for you. Homeboy waited for over sixty years to become king and now it's like, sorry not happening! I know I would be angry. Unless he doesn't give two royal craps about becoming king and was gonna abdicate anyway then that's cool it's all good for William. So we will just see what happens. 

Back to the baby. . .

I can honestly say I spent all of Monday. . . and Tuesday. . . and Wednesday reading and watching videos both live and not about the royal baby. Colour me obsessed. [colour=British spelling]. I announced my congratulations on Twitter, Facebook, email, texts, yelling in my backyard to anyone outside. [just kidding about the last few] and I signed the baby guestbook on Google Plus. You should too. There's like a billion signatures on it. 

So in January the Queen changed the law about which child inherits the throne. Before it was if the firstborn is a boy he automatically is the heir, however if a girl is born she will be the heir if later she doesn't have any boy siblings. If she does then the younger brother is the heir. How unfair is that? But the Queen decided that has to change. Not for her child but for her grandchild. The law now says the firstborn, no matter what sex, will be the heir. Many people including myself were hoping Kate has a girl because of that change. That would be history being made right there. The girl would be a Princess instead of a Lady. Now that is fair. Thank you Queen Elizabeth. But the change was unnecessary due to the royal baby is a boy so we will have to wait a while to see if the next royal baby will make history happen. Prince George's child! I will be quite old then, in my fifties. Ughh I don't want to be old! And imagine how awesome the Trafalgar Fountain would have looked in pink water!

So with all this being said. . . 

Congratulations to William and Kate on the birth of their beautiful son! May all the happiness and health be with the royal family. I send you many, many hugs and best wishes. Have fun and good luck with parenting!

I also recently discovered there is a Kate look alike [actually there are several]. As well as look alikes of the following: Prince William, Prince Harry, Queen Elizabeth, Kate's sister Pippa, Prince Charles and I know I'm forgetting a few but it's okay the main family is accounted for. I couldn't believe it! There are people who look exactly like the royal family. Where's my twin? And it's not even for protection purposes, it's solely for entertainment. These people make mad money pretending to be the royal family. I want that job! Sh*t I wouldn't have to work a single day in my life if I looked like a royal and got paid thousands of dollars for it. I mean gawd damn. So jealous right now.
Now fake William and fake Kate need a fake baby. . .

Until next time. . .

Insomnia to the Fullest

Yeah I have been going to sleep around 6am for about a week now.
I don't know what's wrong with me.
Actually I lied. So many things are wrong with me but nothing relevant to this issue. . .I think.
There was one time it was still night time when I fell asleep. I think it was around 5:30am. Sooo not much sooner than usual but at least it was still night time. I should really watch the sunrise since I see daylight before going to sleep. I mean what else do I have to do at 6:15am? Yeah that's a great idea I will watch the sunrise in a few hours! [I will most likely be up but if not then I will be sad that I fell asleep early] On school nights I go to sleep around 1:30am.
So with that said you're probably wondering what time I wake up. Somewhere between 1pm and 3pm. It varies.
Today it was 1:30pm. It kinda sucks because some of my day is already over and I wasted it sleeping. But it's not like I have things to do that requires me to be up early. Like school or anything. Thank goodness. I am glad I don't have to wake up every single day at freaking 7:30am. Ugh I am so not a morning person. Don't judge me. I haven't slept that late since. . . I don't remember when. Middle school? Elementary school? A very long time ago. So it's quite weird to sleep that late now.

Tomorrow I will go to the beach or a water park or something. So waking up around noon should be good and then I have the rest of the day to soak up the sun and get my tan on. Please don't be cloudy. Although I think you actually get tanner when it's cloudy. It's what I've heard.

Well it's 3:30am now I want to go to sleep but. . . I. JUST. CAN'T. I mean I can try lying in bed, closing my eyes and counting sheep but I would have better luck winning the lottery. I get so restless in bed when I'm trying to sleep but can't. I end up getting up, watching tv and eating some food. Whatever it is. Even if I'm not in the least bit hungry. I eat when I'm bored. There's nothing to do at night. It gets really boring. But I always find something to do online. A project of some sort. Mostly I just watch videos on YouTube, I love that website. Best around.

So there is an insight of what my life has become. The life of an insomniac.
I don't believe in sleeping pills. They'll kill you. [You never know]

In other news...

How on Earth does my bowl of pineapple look like the pineapple pictured on the can??? I demand an explanation of that! The damn things are mashed up like apple sauce for babies who don't have any teeth to chew them. When I bought this can of ''crushed'' pineapple, I expected to find small pineapple chunks like those pictured. But no I had to basically drink my bowl of pineapple sauce. #Fail. #Disappointed. #LateNightSnack. It tasted good but come on I had to eat the whole can to get satisfied. And in about ten minutes I will be raiding my fridge/pantry for something else to eat. Solely due to boredom.
Alright now it's 4:30am. What to do. . . what to do. . .
I will get back to watching youtube vids. This is a long blog post. Didn't plan on that at all.

Until next time. . .

Fireworks at Silver Beach

Happy Independence Day!
I love fireworks. They are always so pretty to look at. And fireworks at Silver Beach in Michigan are even better to look at than anywhere around South Bend or Fort Wayne. I had a great time at the beach. Jaimie and I arrived around 6:30pm and just played in the sand making sand castles and enjoying the weather. It wasn't too hot so that was good. I don't like boiling to my death. Surprisingly the fireworks didn't start until eleven and I was becoming annoyed that it started that late. The one time I went before I don't think they started that late. But maybe they did, I don't remember. It was a few years ago. Last year I believe I watched the fireworks at the 4H Fair which was also fun but Silver Beach fireworks are much cooler. Not to mention the beach itself. I love beaches. Michigan beaches, Florida beaches, Croatia beaches, they are all incredible. Especially Croatia beaches. I mean the Adriatic Sea is magnificent and so blue that you want to swim in it all day. Overall my Independence Day went great. Except the whole beach parking misadventure. That was truly awful. To drive around the damn beach for over one and a half hours is really ridiculous! There was absolutely no parking available anywhere! Not the paid parking near the beach, not the paid parking farther away, not the free parking even farther. Not anywhere! I wish I was exaggerating. I was going to scream and  just stop traffic if I didn't find a spot to park. Finally I found a spot and it was near the beach. Thank God. Walking with Jaimie to a far away parking spot would be a nightmare of its own. Especially at 11:30pm when the fireworks ended and I couldn't see where I was going. I think I would have screamed then too. But I got lucky with the parking. I wish I could have been lucky an hour sooner but it's okay. It all worked out. Yeah the traffic afterwards was bad. But at least we were in our car. Waiting. Just waiting. To move. Even a little inch forward. But nothing. There was no moving. For forty minutes we sat in the parking lot. That's what happens when everyone from Michigan and everyone from Indiana and probably a few hundred people from other states come to the same beach. Traffic gets a little crazy. There was seriously no walking room on the beach. It was the most people I have ever seen in my entire life! From shoreline to where the sand ends on the road there were people sitting. If I had to guess how many people were there, I would say at least five million. And that number feels small to say.
Next year I want to see fireworks somewhere else. Somewhere more exciting. I had a great time at the beach but I like adventure and new things. I'll visit the fireworks at the beach again some year.

Until next time...
