Monday Coolness

Hello ladies.

Yes, he's back. New Old Spice commercial for your enjoyment today. :) Happy Valentine's Day to all of you.




Happy Monday. *firework colors!*

Who Has Vacation?

I have vacation!

We have a whole week off for President's next week. Commence to celebrating. On the list...

• hittin' up the range and doing some shootin'.
• shopping with one of my sisters? Perhaps...
• heading up north to see cousin's band? Perhaps...
• I really think I might finally throw that wine-tasting party.
• craftiiiing a.k.a. my favorite thing ever!
• reading, I have a lot of books to read at the moment.
• Buffalo Wild Wings!!! We got one in town and haven't been yet, we'll fix that.

That list could totally change, and probably will. We might have to take Arthur (my Civic) to the shop. Boooooo. Let's all start praying now that we don't have to. That could get expensive. :/

Any suggestions for me next week? Anyone want to join me on any adventures?

Monday Coolness

It's fairly obvious I love commercials, right? This one started making the rounds last week and it's the cutest thing ever. I can see my own children doing this one day. (Mainly because between hubby and Grandma Jocelyn they'll have plenty of Star Wars knowledge.)



Happy Monday. Don't forget to use the force. :)

A Whole Range of Feelings

So my team is totes in the Big Game this year. Go Packers!!! I also dug up my old Favre jersey (since I don't have one with a current player's number). I questioned whether or not I would sit through the half-time show.

You see, the Black Eyed Peas and I have a love-hate relationship. I love their older stuff. Their newer stuff... welllll... I guess we could leave it at the fact that I rarely love it. I typically find myself thinking, "What IS this?" Then I feel old.

So half-time could be great, or it could be confusing. I had no idea what to expect.

Overall, solid A performance. The whole thing was really well put-together, the songs flowed nicely, the costumes weren't God-awful, and Fergie didn't totally offend my eyes (although I have to mention Will.I.Am's headpiece... ummmm... whaaaat?). I even enjoyed most of the songs they performed. AND Usher. I mean, I grew up in his hey day (is there a space in there?) and the man can DANCE.

Then Slash showed up, which was awesome. I love Slash, my brother used to have hair like him (R.I.P. Nick's glorious hair). But then Fergie went and gyrated on him. And let rip the WORST rendition of "Sweet Child of Mine" to ever hit my ear drums. And I've heard that song done at karaoke multiple times. I cringed. Then I said words. I almost tweeted, but the whole lack of a laptop interferes with that at times. I cringed some more, and almost wept.

But that wasn't the worst part.

See, while shopping with sissy awhile ago, I heard this AWFUL bastardization of "I've Had the Time of My Life." You know, the famous ending song from Dirty Dancing. The song that made a generation of girls want a pink twirly dress and a Johnny to dance with. I heard it in the store, almost threw up, but then promptly forgot about it.

Until half-time.

When Will.I.Am starts singing it. And Fergie joins in. And I almost lost my Captain and Coke. Now I know who to blame. And now I'm ashamed for enjoying any of the half-time show at all.

I'm going to go watch the Packers win now. And then enjoy a new episode of Glee. Happy Super Bowl.

*Check*

Check another thing off the list. I went and had a Brazilian blowout today. My. Hair. Feels. Amazing. I will be doing this regularly now. I would include a pic, but it really wouldn't do my hair justice. I seriously want to just sit here and feel my hair all day.

If you have curly hair and money to spend, do it.

So let's check one more off the list. Up next... maybe a wine tasting party? I do have a week long break coming up so I'll have more than enough time to prep...

**EDIT** I should point out that the only reason this one got done so quickly is because my awesome mama bought me a gift certificate for my birthday. Thanks mom. :)

Yo

So I've been slacking off with the blog a little lately. I've just been SO TIRED this week. Like, super tired. And before anyone asks, no I'm not pregnant so that's not it. (You have to realize this is a standard disclaimer when you've been married three years and produced no offspring.)

I do have a funny story for you though.

I have a first grader who likes Bon Jovi.

I discovered this yesterday. Gives me hope for the future that she likes Bon Jovi and not Justin Bieber. Yay for parents with good taste!

Happy Friday.

Dude

It's February.

Yesterday was the 100th day of school.

I only have nine school days until a week-long break.

That is all.

Happy Tuesday.
