“I am the master of my fate, the captain of my soul.”
– Morgan Freeman, (Nelson Mandela) in Invictus.
Weird.
It is SO strange to me that people I haven’t spoken to and quite frankly tried hard to ignore since high school text me at odd hours of the night, ask how I am doing through mutual friends or text me consistently “hey” with no real purpose for contacting me.
There is a reason I do not talk to you, and a good one at that. WHY ME??
“One day he is going to disappoint me, that’s hard to believe.”
– Again, my cousin Jeff - as Augie, his son was signing a Christmas song for us.
“There basically like dogs.”
– My cousin Jeff, referring to his children, Heidi and Augie who we were bribing with cookies to sing us songs.

In case you haven’t visited this website, do it now. I know it may sound douchey but it’s worth it, I promise. It’s like Pandora but better.
Again with the sex jokes.
Me: Mom, what did you do for Farrukh today?
Mom: A lot…
Me: Like what? A lot doesn’t count.
Mom: “I had sex with him.”
HOLY FUCKING HELL, merry fucking Christmas. SICK.
Oh please...

So I had a lapse in judgement earlier this week and asked my younger sister if we could slumber party it old-school style on Christmas Eve.
Anyway, we’ve had a blast all week but now she’s being a real creep, and I’m starting to regret this decision.
Merry christmas, etc. (if I don’t make it to morning)
She loved every f’ing second of it. Every f’ing second. That...
“C’mon Farrukh, I always wait for you sometimes!!”
– Stanley, trying to get FQ to wait in the locker room for him. FQ’s thoughts in his head “Am I with Cheyenne?” THANKS JERK!! :)
Murray...
Last night, Joanna and I were in the car alone (so she will defend this and I will not back down) she was telling me about a friend with the last named Murray (pronounced like any other Murray last name, Murrrreyyy), instead she pronounced it like she was French, Mur Ay.
Hopefully you figure out how she said it because it was hilarious. She claims I mispronounced it incorrectly back to her, yeah...
I just won MAJOR street cred with my younger...

21 year olds are the best.
Indeed she did. The text was disgusting but it still made it on the site. This same sister of mine woke me up singing Rock-A-Bye-Baby and then preceeded to spoon me, she was big spoon, shit got awkward. Mom took pictures.
Grad School
Applying to grad school is ZERO fun. It’s like applying to college all over again, only to several places and 5,000 times the intensity. I spent the day writing my Personal Statement, holy feelings.
I still have to do a short biography and adjust my personal statement to fit all schools. I can’t WAIT to be finished with this whole process, oh my word.
Oh yeah, FQ is dozing on the...
SNL and Gilly...
My older sister Joanna may or may not, scratch that - DOES, have a strange obsession with Gilly. Guess who just popped up on the opening scene of tonight’s SNL - hosted by James Franco?
GILLYYYY.
She is pumped.
James Franco is sexy.
“No Natalie, a tasteful peck is all you get.”
– Natalie’s respectable, law school, no idea what they talk about, boyfriend - in reference to her wanting to make the Kiss Cam at the Magic Game and obviously behave inappropriately.
“I feel like trying to teach you manners is a full-time job.”
– Cheyenne on why opposites attract. (via mundaneisme)
Oh Natalie, I only speak the truth my dear. GOOD LUCK CRO :)
Struggling...
My brother is in a rough place right now and I feel like I am right there with him, struggling next to him, trying to find my way out with him. Nothing will be the same without him around, I love you C.
Tumblr Diet Promise Bandwagon
No more cheese - in any form! I love cheese, too much. Okay, maybe a little cheese but intake is decreasing by 500%.
And possibly 2 a days at the gym, some spinning, swimming and kickboxing combos? Probably so Yoga with Brown Man too - sounds perfect.
“I could just eat this child alive these days…how can she be a SENIOR at...”
– Lisa, Momma Dukes, Sharecropper (whatever you’d like to call her) in reference to a picture of me and her in NYC in September.
Oh Lisa...
My mom sent me an e-mail yesterday with the subject line “Your blog posts warm my heart,” but I am just so confused because the last post I made was Fuck Marry Kill.
I KNEW that would make Mom proud :) ESPECIALLY because I re-blogged it from my sister’s blog, hello inappropriate but awesome family.
It's extra fun to play Fuck Marry Kill when the...

And also, you’re at work.
HAHAHAHAHA, I LOVE this game. And Joanna, too - le duh.
Best sister IN THE WORLD.
My older sister Joanna and I are into this new thing called Sisterlovefest 2009 AKA Holiday break. We just had a conversation about tandem bicycles, me being honky, her 6 AM arrival to Tampa on Saturday followed by Cracker Barrel. This conversation was prompted by the below. Holy shit, I LOVE HER. 6 DAYSSSS.
I posted this on her FB wall.
Cheyenne Overby I know what I want for Christmas, a tandem...
Oh Keifer...
Keifer: Julian, are your parents hispanic?
Me: Look at Julian, dumbstruck.
Julian: Are you serious? No Keifer, I am but my parents aren't.
Julian is 6'2 and Puerto Rican as they get, his name is Julian Jose Torres.
Now that Keifer is around, I'm not the one saying all the dumb stuff : )
“I touched your boob, we are always in a no judging zone.”
– Julia Manhart, my best, in reference to this new game she plays. LOVE THIS GIRL.
Success.
Leaving work at noon - lunch and couch here I come :) Lazy day watching movies sounds PERFECT, beyond it really.
Woke Up With A Bang.
Not literally, that’s gross.
Circa 9:03 AM, I jolted out of my slumber, ON THE BOYS COUCH.
I was supposed to be at work at 8 AM - hello oversleeping.
Finally made my way in after my bagel fell on the floor, a mess of a morning and a migraine now. Leaving soon, I think -stay tuned.
Thursday Night, in review.
Things I learned at my last Tacky Christmas:
It’s SA-KE (not table hitting) BOMB (table hitting).
Sake bombs done that way are WAY more fun that right out of the cup.
People DO steal faceplates out of very nice party buses.
Some dates really are big enough ass holes that they throw up on the bus driver (not mine, mine was great).
Telling your friends “The ostrich head is in the...
Monday Morning Office Talk
A couple months ago, when it started getting cold outside, we were told our heating pipes wouldn’t work because of the construction going on in Ruby Diamond. Well, it is currently 62 degrees in the office.
Strange men walk in (I have my jacket covering the upperhalf of my body, snuggie like) Well, she’s cold [In a creepy country, LCR (Leon County Resident) accent].
Me - Yes, I am!

Big Kid Decisions.
I have found myself having to make a lot of these lately and while my planned has changed several times, I have found a new and permanent one.
GRE January 15th.
Walk in the Spring
Intern in Summer and get my degree
Grad School in the Fall - in preference order,
1. FSU 2. NYU 3. Arkansas
Here we go big kid decisions, here we go.
Tiger Woods
To add to the fuss, I am disappointed, I expected more out of him. For the record, if I was his wife, I would have done the SAME thing, whatever that “thing with the 3-iron was.”
Colin.
As a follow up to me not finding him a date, partially because his knee is purple from when he ripped it out of his skin playing football, partially because he is on Percasets and we will be drinking and partially because I only had two days, today his FB status reads…
Colin McQuillen tore my acl, awesome.
GLAD I DIDN’T FIND YOU A DATE, CLOWN!
“Get me a ticket to the game, I won’t count on it since you couldn’t...”
– Colin (in his normal ASSY fashion) - referring to the bowl game and my lack of producing him a date to Tacky Christmas.
Tonight's Gonna Be A Good Good Night...
Tonight is the annual Tacky Christmukah date function - WOO. It is one of my favorites and my last one, seeing as I am a senior, hold the tears. I will cry enough for the both of them.
GAME ON.
