Cracked ribs or not…2010 is starting off AMAZING!


When my loverlover Maxie BBM-ed me at midnight-“You’re Featured Blogger!”, I didn’t believe it, so I made Gabby check…and yes, I am 20 Something Bloggers January Featured Blogger!

I really don’t want this post to sound obnoxious, but this title, this month, truly means a lot to me-20 Something Bloggers is a HUGE community, over hundreds of thousands of talented bloggers are on this site-just to be nominated in itself was a huge honor. THANK YOUThank you for voting for me, seriously, whether it was on your own or I bugged you about it. :) I joined 20sb when I first started blogging almost a year ago, and through it, I have found some of the most ridiculously talented writers ever, met people whom I can’t go a day..an hour without talking to, people I have flown across the country to meet, and it just keeps getting better. If you are a 20 something…I encourage you to join. We’re friendly.

I know my blog is kind of different. I don’t really fit into any “category.” But that’s how I am, in real life, and I can’t help but to translate that over here. Whatever mood I’m in, whatever the status of my heart, whatever badass shoes I just found, or the latest personal pickle I’ve ran into (literally), you hear all about it, and you accept me and if I think about that long enough, right now, I will cry. So 20 something or not…Thank You for reading, for encouraging, for making me laugh and cry and think. Blogging has made me a better person, and I know it’s because my life has been touched by all ya’ll sharing your experiences with me.
{Seriously. Do it. I know I am.}

I also want to thank The Tiki Tiki for featuring me as one of their Latina Bloggers You Should Meet in 2010.

They said-“We like Liz over at It’s Unbeweavable. She’s a former make-up artist who does PR and marketing and makes us wish we were 26 again. Fashion, fun, honesty, with a little cursing on the side.” Thank you…oh and dolls? I WISH I was 26 again. I’d do things just a wee bit differently. But thank you, besosbesosbesos, and the cursing part made me laugh. Shit. Need to work on that. Latina’s be calling me OUT! :)

It’s been a good day…and it’s only 2 am. Tuesday, we’re going to get along just fine. Nice shoes, homie.

I've heard and seen your name around but have never made it over here, and now I have no excuse not to. Can't wait to read more. Also? This part:

"I don't really fit into any "category." But that's how I am, in real life, and I can't help but to translate that over here."

I LOVE THAT. I've been asked lately why I don't write about one particular topic, and I'm like… because I don't live one particular topic? So yeah, I get it. LOVE it. Kudos, lady!
