New Obsessions Tuesday

FINALLY it's slightly warm outside - like I didn't wear a coat at lunch warm.  Soooo with this warmer weather comes some new things that I've seen/done/tried/love.  Enjoy! 

1.  Run - DO NOT WALK - (or do walk if you're like me and will most likely trip and fall if you run with such excitement) to see Neighbors.  It was absolutely hilarious!  I related on so many levels and just laughed so hard.  Even though I don't live in a house, with a husband and/or a child, I DO live in an apartment and have found myself becoming more and more like "that old cranky biotch in 12D". The "kids" across the hall throw these ragers and if I stay in on a Friday night - it's because I need sleep - NOT because I want to hear them.  I may or may not be jealous that I wasn't invited, but that's not the point.  Anywho...it's a must see.  And can I please add...when did Zac Efron get so freaking hot??  Why am I a cougar?!  Do you think he'll go out with me?!

2.  I'm totes obsessed with this new Bobbi Brown blush/lip stuff/amazingness.  It's called "Pot Rouge for Lips & Cheeks".  

I have it in "Pale Pink".  It's fantastic.  I use it for both and it's so easy to throw in your bag and take with  you at night.  They have a bunch of colors and it's great for that "dewey" or "glowy" look.  I highly recommend it!!

3.  You guys - I've jumped on the "Oil Pulling" bandwagon.  I've gone there.  If you don't know what it is, here's a quick overview read this.  I use Coconut Oil and I've been doing it for over a week now.  I'm giving it at least 2 weeks before I'm going to even look for "results".  If nothing else, my mouth feels a lot cleaner.  I do it first thing in the morning - basically I keep a teaspoon and the oil in my bathroom - I get up, take a teaspoon and begin to swish!  During the 20 minutes, I take my shower, start to do makeup, make my bed, etc., basically my morning routine.  The first time I thought it was FOREVER, but now it kinda goes by quickly.  There are so many benefits, so I'm really hopeful this works!!  

At first I was like...

But now I'm all...

Soooo let me know if you take and LOVE any of these suggestions!!  And if you don't - don't tell me!!  Enjoy!!  XOXO

NUT CAP SHELL

So Spring has Sprung…apparently.  According to my allergies at least.  According to actual temperatures…not so much.  I'm hoping for a lil warm up soon!  A little update on my life…some positive, some not so much.  BUT I know I've been a lil MIA, so this should cover the past few weeks.  It's a lil "Pro Con Pro"…sorority style flashback.

+ I went to Chicago & Houston to see some very fabulous friends.
                

·       In Chicago we did a lil shopping, caught up with old friends, ate/drank (are you seeing a theme here?!), went to RPM (which we ordered just about everything on the menu and it was all amazing - despite not seeing G&B - it was a fabulous time), and we went out and pretended to be young again.  All in all - a fantastic trip.  Chicago is one of my fave cities - the people are great the food is great - so much good going on there!
·       In Houston I went to a rodeo, ate some amazing food, drank some amazing margs and   beers outside and yup - went to a Crawfish Boil.  It was pretty much one of the best weekends ever - further fueling my "maybe I SHOULD move to Texas and just succumb to the fact that I might belong there" theory. 

- I had to sit in a doctor's office waiting for an appointment and this was what I dealt with:

·       A guy bringing his dog in a little bag and pretending like no one is seeing it.  Did I mention this was a doctor's office?!  And the dog would bark and the guy would just like look around like nothing was going on - still pretending he wasn't trying to stealthily sneak a dog into his appointment.

·       The obnoxious woman next to me told the receptionist that she didn't have time to wait (like the rest of us are all just free birds with nothing else to do but wait for the doctor).  Then she was filling out a form for her and her husband and she looked at him and goes "what is your birthday".  Ummm what?!  This is your husband.  He was like - "you don't know?!".  To which she replied "I can't remember everything."  If that relationship isn't rock solid I don’t know what is.  Annnnd then she proceeded to call someone they were discussing a "whore monger"…she was a real peach.

·       Another woman decided that it was in the best interest of the whole waiting room to hear her play whatever ridiculously loud game she was playing on her phone.  Awesome.

+ My co-workers and I decided to organize a House Crawl this past weekend.  It was pretty much amazing.  We went to 3 different apartments, had shirts made, drank too much and just kinda fratted out a bit.  It was a really good bonding experience. 

+ My sister and I met Mindy Kaling.  Yup - that's right - got a picture and all.  We went to an event at Bliss that she was at and next thing we kenw we were lined up waiting to see her…and then all of a sudden we were in a photo booth with her.  My sister sat on her lap, we had 4 "poses"…one of which my sister gave her a noogie.  Sooo that happened.  She was as awesome and fun as you would think she'd be!

+ I did a massive Spring Cleaning - got rid of 4 bags of clothes (donated them of course) and just really cleaned things up!!

- I had to go through stuff I hadn't seen in years...including things I prob wish I never saw again.  I.e. cards from old boyfriends, things I thought I threw out, cards/notes from people I don't even know who they are…aka "Can't wait to see you when you get back.  Have fun with your family.  Love you!! John". Ummmmm I don’t or remember one person named John.  I have zero idea who it is and who sent me such love notes.  

+ Saw a few good plays, movies, TV shows…

·       Bullets Over Broadway with Zach Braff - really good!  It's a new show on Broadway and I definitely recommend it!

·       The Other Woman - my sister and I saw this the other night.  I wasn't expecting to like it as much as I did - honestly I laughed out loud in more m parts than not.  It wasn't like "best movie ever" - but it was exactly what I needed - a nice light rom-com.

·       If you aren't already watching these shows/watched these shows - you need to get on board stat - Southern Charm & Chrisley Knows Best.  Honestly - they are both so amazing.  I literally died over Christly Knows Best - I can't even handle that family. 

+ There's a new hot guy in my apartment building - on my floor - like 3 doors down from me. 

- I stood at the elevator with said gentleman the other day and iddn't know what to do - so we just stood there awkwardly in silence waiting.  Then we got in…I wiped the drool from my mouth …and I was so distracted I forgot to push the button to go to the bottom floor….so up we went to the top!  Then I casually/awkwardly/Lizzie-esque had this convo:
                       Me:  Soooo did you just move in?
                       Him:  Nope been here for about 6 months. How long have you been here?
                       Me:  Four years. (this is going swimmingly)
                       Him:  How do you like it?
                       Me:  It's good - nice and quiet. 
ANNNNND scene!  Not only was that one of the lamest things for me to say - we reached the ground floor and out he went…haven't seen him since.

There you have it people - a (I swear to God this is what I just said in my head as I was typing and went back to type this because it needs explanation) NUT CAP SHELL (I believe I was trying to say both "nut shell" and "recap").  Yup - I'm loosing my marbles!!  Be back soon…just gonna go try to find those quickly!
