Quirky, Snarky, and Douchebaggery

I really just needed to say those three words. That's all. Mr. Husband and I made a trip to Best Buy today and bought a few new movies that were super cheap, including the Lord of the Rings Extended Edition Trilogy. He got it for half off so he's been like a small child all night. He's watched all of them back to back. It's got something like 15 hours of extra stuff on it and each movie is anywhere from 30-45 minutes longer than the original ones. So here it is, 2:45 am and I am bouncing off the walls from caffeine, cookie cake, and apple pie sugary overload.   I am pretty sure before the holiday season is over, I will not be able to fit into any of my pants.

Random Thoughts of the Day...

November Thanks 2011

You all knew it was coming. I really didn't want to do a "thankful" blog as it seems everyone is doing these in blogs and all over Facebook. But there are a few things I am genuinely thankful for this year and I really need to put them out there. 
  Fall always makes me feel nostalgic. I love everything about it. The turning of the leaves, the crunch of the leaves under my feet, the holidays and family time, the crispness in the air...everything about Fall makes me happy. This year, there has been a death, a birth, and a marriage for starters.
  As I stated in my November 2010 blog, "People shouldn't be thankful for things just in the month of November. They should be thankful for something every day that they are alive. With all it's ups and downs, life is still a wonderful thing, and by far, better than the alternative."

Failed bath Attempt...Again

In a previous post, I mentioned how much I love to soak in a nice, hot bath. I also mentioned that I tend to fail in doing so because, let's face it, I am not the most patient woman in this world. Cooking something in a microwave seems like an eternity and I normally end up with food that is cold in the middle. Waiting for packages to come in the mail will cause me to not sleep for days. Even when I know they will be here on a designated day, I still can't sleep until said package has actually arrived. If I am going somewhere the next day, say, Disneyland, yeah, this woman is not sleeping at all. Doesn't matter that I have been there 12+ times in the 3 years I've been in California, the anticipation and wanting morning to come will keep me awake most of the night. So why would my bath time be any different? In order to see just how impatient I am, I actually took it upon myself to time my bath two nights ago. I had a book and had planned a nice soaking session, with some reading and relaxing as my main goal. This is what actually happened...

More Randomness...

Here it is, another Sunday, another random meme. I hope you all enjoy reading these as much as I enjoy doing them. It's a great time killer and an awesome way to procrastinate.

Mr. Husband Saturday

I have been in a bit of a writing funk lately. I took a meme, and instead of answering the questions myself, I asked Mr. Husband for his answers and told him they would be going on my blog. He would do his own but he has it in his head that his punctuation sucks so bad that he wouldn't be able to do it. I think he would just rather me do it.

Fawk You Fridays with A side of Confession

It has been a crazy week here. I think we got the stuff all done to the the city off mom's back, and with the help of one of my best friends, we got some smaller stuff done around the house. I love Fall. It is my favorite season, the changing of the leaves, the crisp cool air, and the nostalgia I feel when I make a hot cup of tea, curl up under a blanket and just think back.  I just hate everything starting in November up until January. All the holiday stuff we rush around to do takes the fun out of the holidays itself. I don't ever remember my parents rushing around like people do now. Was it just because life was simpler then? Or were they just better at hiding it? The day after Halloween, places already had the Christmas stuff up. Black Friday starting earlier this year, it's all just annoying. The holidays are about being with friends and family, and enjoying one another. It just all irritates me.

Wednesday Random Thoughts

Just because we all need a bit of randomness in our lives and honestly, I don't have it in me to do a whole blog post right now. So let's just write a bunch of crap and see where that goes, shall we?
