Bus Wars

Basically if you don’t take public transportation…mainly the bus…you may not sympathize with my situation.  The situation that is the full on bus etiquette war I'm in with another woman at my bus stop. 

So every form of public transportation has it's "rules" and things that people just know about and obey.  You get away with not knowing things maybe your first/second time around.  After that - no chance underpants.  Such things may include (but are not limited to):

• No speakers (ie cell phones, boom boxes, video games, etc.)
• Not sitting directly on top of another person (if and only if there are no other seats available)
• Elderly, disabled, pregnant people allll get first dibs on seats 
• When going on the escalator down to your train, you stand to the right and run to the left (might change depending on the city)

Now those are just a few…however my BIGGEST rule is how you get onto said transportation.  Now in NYC, at a bus stop, there is typically some sort of line.  The first person stands wherever and then everyone else that arrives stands behind them.  Now of course there are times where it's more of a "cluster", in these situations, you normally have an idea of who came when and everyone files in accordingly. 

There is this woman at my stop every morning and seriously - we're in a huge fight.  First let me explain her.  She looks like she has no idea where she is and doesn't know anything, but don't let that fool you - she knows exactly what she's doing!  She always is wearing a longer trench coat.  And my favorite part is her head gear.  I can't even describe.  She has one hat that kinda looks like this (yes it has fur, too):

However, most of the time she wears a scarf around her head, ties it under her chin, and puts a Yankees bucket hat on top.  What?!  Not necessary.  It doesn't even add warmth!!

Now the fights…every day she comes sweeping in on the corner and pretends to not see the 10 other people standing in line.  She cuts to the front EVER SINGLE TIME!!  So the first few times I let her get away with it, now my friend it's on.  Every day we're in a war/battle.  

I now can track the bus on my phone, so when it starts getting close, I position myself to be in front (not cut necessarily, just be in front to box her out).  This morning I shoved myself in front of her, however there was an older woman to my side with a cane, so I obvi let her go ahead of me, she was livid!  Mainly because I almost pushed her over.  

Another time I just pretended I didn't see her "merging" into the line, and I just stayed really close to the guy in front of me not letting her in, she was soooo pissed off.  My blood literally boils when I see her. 

She's not going to get me - not if I can help it!  I don’t even want her seat, I go to the back of the bus (she sits in the front), but it's just the principle of the thing! 

It's officially on biotch…it's on…game over for you and your stupid hat!

A Few Lil Snipets

So lets discuss a few things.

1. I woke up to one of the alarms (not sure if it's fire or carbon monoxide) beeping because the batteries were dying. Soooo not necessary. I was so mad. How is that an appropriate way to enter into a day?! And the beeping is piercing, loud & incessant - it doesn't stop until you change the batteries.

So I muddled through it and I'm gonna have to change those suckers tonight. Sorry to all my neighbors that stay home all day - whoops!

2. I get to work, obviously sweating, you know because it was 24 degrees this morning. I have a love/hate with my North Face coat - the damn thing keeps me so stinking warm - but then after my walk into work I'm dying. Like who sweats in a temperature that your sweat could actually freeze?! How is that even possible?? I prob should have paid more attention in science class.

3. Upon getting into work I put my wedges on and go to walk for coffee…omg embarrassing moment….loudest squeaking…EVER!!! Like people were staring because it was so quiet in my office and those really set things off. So insane. Then I tried to slink back to my desk and quickly Googled "squeaky shoe fix" - yup - that happened and I was told to put hand cream inside my shoe. We all know that I'm always up for a challenge and to try new things, so hesitantly I smeared cream all inside my shoe. Low and behold…I let it dry and the stupid trick worked!!

So if you are ever in that sitch just slather on some good 'ol hand cream and you'll be back to business in no time!

4. I bought 3 lbs. weights last night. I read on Goop about this new Tracey Anderson workout you can do in 15 minutes.

I know a lot of people swear by her, so I thought I'd give it a try! I mean other than me looking like a fool, there really isn't anything to lose.

5. I feel the need to put in a lil plug for this show I saw. It's a live thing, so don't go looking on TV for it! But it's called Mortified and it's beyond hilarious. It plays in various cities, so I highly recommend you looking into seeing it. Basically it's regular people that get up on stage and read from their angsty teen diaries or past school projects or journals. It's ridiculous. I literally was in tears listening. And then it got me thinking that I'm sure I have a few gems of my own - I should prob dig those out. maybe I'll just transcribe them on here for all to enjoy.

So that's that for now. Happy Wednesday you lil punks!!

Oh Ron...Do Go ON!!

Hello friends!  Happy gross Tuesday!  It's raining and not pleasant here - so hopefully it's a lil nicer where you are.  How were all the weekends?  Mine was pretty solid!  I'll recap for you.

Well my bday was on Friday, so there's that.  I woke up, got out of bed and said - make this a good day!  I didn't feel like doing anything, but I was trying to pump myself up.  So I took extra time doing my hair & makeup, put on new outfit, and embraced the day.  I left my apartment and it was kinda misting out, but not too bad.  I literally didn't even make it up the block and the skies opened up - TORENTIAL down pour.  I was like a drowned rat. 

I had an umbrella but it didn't do a thing with the sideways rain that was going on.  I finally got to work and I was basically wearing no shirt because I had on a white button down.  So it was like I was just wearing a skirt and my bra.  One of the "head guys" at work who's about 78 years old was like "umm do you want a shirt, I have an extra in my closet".  Totally sweet, but I just stomped passed and mumbled "I'll be in my office wringing myself out - see you in an hour".  And then my secretary scurried in and gave me her desk fan which she set up for me so it would blow in my face and try to dry me off.  Oh and did I mention that my hari was a rats nest and I had makeup streaming down my face?!  Oh I didn't - well that happened!  And don’t worry I'm still using bronzer to pretend I'm still tan from the summer - so my face was basically half brown/half white and I had mascara dripping down.  So that's how the day started - awesome.  The rest of the actual day didn't improve by much.  And all my friends here weren't going to be here that night, so I planned on just going home and wallowing. 

So I left work, went and got a mani/pedi - trying to salvage the day.  After that a girl I work with (who was supposed to be going out of town) texted me and told me to meet them at this bar because she was going to stay in the city after all.  So I was back and forth and then forced myself out.  And I'm glad I did - it wound up being a great night!  Just a few work peeps and a lot of alcohol.  We went to a few different bars and things were getting a lil cray.  We randomly met these 2 men from Haiti who were amazing.  They were older and talking to us for awhile.  Oh this was after some other man spilled his glass of red wine down my leather bag (that I got in Barcelona) and I almost lost it/burst into tears.  Anywho…the one guy, Ron, was quite a character.  At one point I was standing with my work crush (oh don’t worry he was there all night buying me drinks and having fun) and this was our exchange with Ron:

Ron:  Are you 2 brohter and sister??

Us:  (giggling/shocked because we look nothing alike) umm no!

Ron:  Well good because you 2 need to date!

Us:  (laughing awkwardly, giggling, me looking at the floor/turning purple, etc.) 

So basically we're married now - at least according to Ron.  Soooo after that we wound up at this dive bar. Really fun - and this is when things start to get hazy.  I know I invited myself to a co-workers wedding (awesome) and I know I took myself home around 2 am.  I also know that I changed my shoes on the sidewalk. I also know that I woke up on my couch in a t-shirt and undies around 6 am with the TV & lights on with Whole Foods mashed potatoes in front of me.  So choose your own adventure as to how my night ended. 

Then Saturday morning came and I felt atrocious.  I was heading to West Chester, PA to see some of the girls.  I made a miraculous recovery though by the time I got there and it was all good.  I was able to power through and have another fab night!  We went to a great dinner, caught up, and went out to few fun bars.  All of us pretending we still "have it"!!

All in all it was a great weekend - despite it being my birthday!  Happy work week - we're almost there!! 

What Is The Universe Trying To Tell Me?!

Hey kids, lil 'ol me here!  Sorry for the long pause - things have been beyond hectic, but I'll give you a few updates on my life and what's been going on in good 'ol Lizzie-ville.  Apparently I'm into the "'ol's" today. 

1.  I went to DC this past weekend - yup my old stomping grounds!!  It was sooo much fun.  Jason (Ruby's husband - ps he picked his name and was super excited about it - best thing ever!) picked me up from the airport Friday night and then it began!  I met Ruby at their house, we changed, got ready and into the city we went!  We met up with a bunch of my old work cronies and Sydney even surprised me! Hilary and Kit met up with us later too.  Things got wayyyy out of control, as per usual with this old work crowd.  We basically just had a debaucherous evening that ended with me throwing up in an ally (which may or may not have been a gas station, but I'm sticking to an ally because it sounds more classy).  It was one of the most fun nights ever!  I woke up on Ruby's couch, fully clothed, with my hoop earrings still in.  Saturday was not as fun.  The girls came over for brunch and I was so not feeling well!  I tried to drink a lil bit, but that just wasn't an option.  So we all just hung out and had a low key day.  My flight back was super early on Sunday, so it actually was for the best that things remained under control!

2.  I saw American Reunion with Giuliana on Sunday. Seriously - it wasn't as good as I hoped it would be.  There were definitely a few funny parts, but I just really hoped they'd knock it out of the park and it was kind of flat lined for me.  BUT I mean I had to see it, it was part of my youth and generation.  I mean I was class of 1999, too!  BUT after the movie we walked around our neighborhood adn enjoyed the gorg weather.  I'm such a nerd, but I really love where I live in this big crazy city!

3.  Not only did my Pilates class kick my butt on Monday, my spin class kicked my tush yesterday!  Like I'm having trouble moving people!  And I have another Pilates session today!  Wahhhh!

4.  TV notes:  Giuliana & Bill is making me sob like every episode.  I'm so obsessed and I want to be like in their marriage - I heart them sooo much.   The Voice is unbelievable!  I'm like in shock after every episode.  

Last night was no different - my girl RaeLynn got sent home - NOT COOL!!  But it was a hard choice, I just think she's so darling!  And can we discuss Adam Levine for just a minute.  Like I want to jump his bones and his little performance only solidified that we were obviously meant to be married.  I'm just saying.

5.  Lastly, I've been feeling a little "meh" lately.  Can't quite explain, but just not myself and a little "down in the dumps".  Well I think the universe is trying to help me express my feelings because I kid you NOT this was my "playlist" that was completely RANDOM on my walk to work this morning:

Survivor - Destiny's Child

I Wanna Go - Britney Spears

Empire State of Mind - Jay Z

Wonderful World - James Morrison

Rolling in the Deep - Adele

I mean - COME ON!!!  Like could this be anymore telling of my life right now?!  INSANITY!!

Ok that's all for now folks, but I promise I'll be better…and by promise I mean…

The Night Dana Carvey Wouldn't Leave Me Alone/I Heart Austin

Ok - "surrrry folks - parks closed - moose outside shoulda told ya!"  And if you don't get that reference I sorta feel sorry for you.  

Anywho - sorry for the delay - I had some brother's wedding things to tend to last week!  Their big day is coming up in 2 months!!  Wahhoooo!!  But I digress…now back to my story!

Thursday Night

Hazel had a work happy hour that she had to attend/run/organize/be everything for.  So I joined her - never one to turn down free food/drinks and it was another gorg night!  Basically after a little while, I was being more awkward then I've ever been.  No one really wanted to talk to me and one gentleman actually said "you look like a lost soul".   So that was my cue to exit and just sit myself at the bar and watch basketball until she wrapped up!  So I headed to the outdoor bar, got a seat and was answering emails, watching the game, entertaining myself.  Next to me was this guy - I swear to God was  Dana Carvey look-alike.  He even talked like him - that voice he does in the "isn't that special" skit.  

Oh and he was a office furniture salesman.  Dying.  Well he took a liking to me and would.not.stop talking!  He was about 50+ and I really had no interest.  He kept telling me how pretty I was, asking about dating in NYC, said he'd like to come visit.  Oh that's right folks - he was looking for an invite to come visit - what?!?!  My favorite line was when he looked at me through his spectacles and said "you have really pretty eyes. Everyone tells me that too.  We have like the same eyes.  Let me look closer (leans in) - yup they're the same."  What is going on?!  I wanted to crawl under the bar stool and cry.  This was the best TX had to offer me?!  I'm sorry - he was a nice man, just came on a little thick and I clearly wasn't into it.  I was very polite and kind though, I wasn't rude.  Eventually he left - sigh of relief all the way around!

Hazel finished up and had invited her brother and his wife to join us for a few drinks.  It was great to meet them - totally love!  We hung out for awhile - it was just so nice out we didn't want to leave!  We had a great time!!

Friday

Austin day!!!  Yippeeeee I get to see Hermione!  I got up and Hazel had to go to the office for a few hours.  So I went to breakfast at this place - Twin Sisters.  It was great - a nice leisurely morning!  Then I headed back to meet Hazel and got ready for our trip to Austin. 

We left and grabbed lunch on the way - prob the most amazing place I've ever been to.  We had BBQ at Rudy's that was the best I've had in my life.  

It's served on paper - that's right - just paper.  And we had some sides which were even more amazing.  The clientele was straight up Texas - I loved every second of it! 

We got up to Austin and headed right to Hermione's apartment.  After our initial yelling/squealing with excitement over seeing each other we all get ready for dinner.  First we had a drink at this great Mexican place then we headed to Lamberts - again - amazing.  I think I prob gained like 10 pounds on this trip! After that we went out to a few bars - so much fun!  Some of the best people watching I've ever seen!! 

Saturday morning Hermione had to head out of town - wahhh - but Hazel and I got to stay at her apt!  We went to breakfast at this place - soooo hometowny I loved it.  I had "migas" - yah that's right I know the lingo.  For those of you NOT in the know - it's like eggs & tortillas.  They were superb!  Only in TX do you get chips & salsa with your breakfast - it was fabulous.  Then Hazel took me on a tour of campus and downtown Austin!  I hit up the bookstore - saw a few key places.  After that we went for a walk around the lake - again - weather was amazing! 

The afternoon was spent a great bar - sitting outside - enjoying some beer!  We watched the basketball games, a few of her friends stopped by, nice and relaxing!  We also went to this area of Austin - Rainey Street.  Basically this guy just bought up some old houses and converted them into bars - it's the coolest little section.  We went to Clive - it was fabulous!  Here are some pics:

We didn't stay out too late - I had to get up at 4:30 AM for my flight, which was not the most fun - BUT no biggie! 

Sunday

Sunday came wayyyy to quickly.  I was so sad to leave Hazel!  I had such a good trip and it was fun to see a new city.  I'm pretty much obsessed with Austin and would love to go back soon!  It's such an amazing city!  It's never fun to come back from vacay - but it was good to be home in my apartment and back into a routine!

Cupid's Arrow Must Have Missed Me

Happy V Day!  Not to be confused with "VD DAY", which is something I'd never want to be involved in!  Sooo I've had a bit of an interesting day today.  Let me break this down for you.

- Wake up, as per usual.  The girl living above me screaming "HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY"…this is not as per usual and this was certainly NOT the way I wanted to begin my day.  Nevertheless, here we are.

- My hair was like static central.  I had taken a shower the night before (after the gym) and so I decided to throw it up in a cute ponytail, but the static was uncontrollable.  So I tried to curl it a bit, put it up, sprayed it and now it won't move - apparently I have like ammmaahhhzing hair spray. 

- Can't choose what to wear.  Didn't want to wear "red" and be cheesy, but didn't want to wear all black and be "that girl".  So I choose a black dress, black tights & red pumps - cute right?! 

- Got caught up in the Today Show…annnnd now I'm late!

- Roll into work late, awesome.  Go to my office, I'm sweating because I basically ran the mile to work.  My wrap dress is all discombobulated and basically my boobs are hanging out.  Quickly fix that. 

- On my way to get my daily breakfast of grapefruit, I run into the "head boss" guy here.  This was our exchange:
 
Me:  Morning!
Him:  Ohhh you're all dressed up today!  You look nifty!!
Me:  Umm I dress up everyday!
Him: Welllll sometimes.
Me:  Awkwardly giggle and slow jog back to my office. 

Sooo basically I thought I was dressing up for work most days - apparently not so much.  Sweet.

- Back to my desk to receive this card from my bestest Valentine - Isabella.  This pretty much made my day.

- Filed my taxes.

- Went to the school I volunteer at during lunch.  I swear if you ever need an ego boost - just catapult yourself into a first grade class.  I literally opened the door and they were screaming "I missed you" "We love you" "Will you be my Valentine".  It was great!  Made me smile!  So they were bananas today - they had a few "parties" and were literally off the walls.  The hour went by quickly - I almost felt bad leaving the teacher - literally they were insane today!

- Grabbed a salad on my way back to work.  The salad guy was the most action I got all day.  As he was handing it to me, he winked at me and said "Happy Valentine's Day".  Awesome - I heart you! P.S. the salad was awful - not sure what happened - but I basically had to throw it out. 

- So now I'm hungry and I'm heading to a spin class after work - hope I don’t pass out. 

- Celebrating tonight with a glass of wine and some last nights' episode of The Voice & Real Housewives of Orange County! 

I hope you all have fabulous Valentine's Days!!  XOXO

Super Re-Cap

Happy Monday, my little pretties!!  I hope you all had fabulous weekends.  Mine was very low key and family filled.  I had a baby shower for my cousin and stayed at my parents for the whole weekend! It was just so nice to be home.  Sometimes you just need it - and it's like the best thing in the world!

So - GO BLUE!!!  Giants won!!  

Wahoo!  The first thing my mother said when they ended the game was…

Mom:  ugh - you'll have to take a cab home from work Tuesday!
Me:  why's that?!
Mom:  you know - with the ticker tape parade and all.  There'll be too many crazies and drunks.  I don’t want you walking home.
Me:  I think I'll be ok - but I do love you. 

Oh how she worries - gotta love her!!  Anyways….the game - ahhh the game!!  So good!  I love when it's exciting towards the end like that.  And I heart Eli.  Tom Brady - not so much.  And this picture just made me laugh.  

Sorry - Pats fans - but it did. 

Now onto the rest of the game.  Here are my take-aways:

1.  I didn't love the commercials.  The only one I can even really remember liking is the Sketchers one with the dog - I actually laughed out loud.  Too cute.

2.  Kelly Clarkson rocked my socks off with the National Anthem.  

I was so nervous for her and after last year's Christina fiasco - I was scuurred.  But she pulled through and did a phenom job.

3.  Miranda Lamberts pink microphone with rhinestones - totally necessary.

4.  Cee Lo is basically my hero.  Like who else can pull off that ensemble?!

5.  Madonna was ok for me - I think she was a little "flat".  I was just expecting so much energy and excitement and I really wasn't "wowed". 

6.  The men who were bouncing off the wires - like how did they find out that was a real "job"?!

7.  MIA - really not necessary to give the good 'ol U S of A the bird.  Keep it to yourself - this is a family show. 

8.  Nicki Minaj - you are incredible.  That's all.

 So who's watching THE VOICE?!  Season 2 - starting now!!  Cyrusly - I'm so excited!!!  OH and don’t forget - second installment of RHBH is on tonight, too!  OMG fab night of TV watching coming at me live!!  Until next time!

Spam-A-Lama Ding Dong

Does anyone ever look at their Spam mail??  Every now and then it catches my eye - normally it's about "Single Christians" or "Single  & Jewish" - it really doesn't discriminate race, religion, ethnicity - it just some how knows that I need help in that department.  Sometimes it's about medications and drugs - sometimes Viagra - again - doesn't' discriminate.  So today I thought I'd let you all take a lil look at my morning Spam Inbox.  Come along on this journey of dysfunctionalness with me.

Today this is what I was graced with...

Let's start with the Omaha Steaks - have I ordered them as gifts - yes.  Do I want to order them for my singleness - no.  Would I eat them if you sent them to me - obviously.

Now moving on to the "Belly Fat Blast!" - which will come in handy after my Omaha Steaks endeavor.  This is slightly misleading.  The subject states: "4 foods th​at KILL fat and 7 food chemi​cals that CAUSE​ it", however when you actually open the email, it says:  "Now I'm not talking about specific foods…" UMMM  well then what kinds of foods were you talking about when you said "4 foods that KILL"?!  Just wondering.

Ok so "Find a Dentist" - pretty benign/typical spam.  But what got me was the subject:  "78 Million Americans Lose All Their Teeth".  If that doesn't scare the b-Jesus out of you - I don’t know what will!  Where do they get these statistics?!

FTD Flowers - why don't you just rub it in that I'm single?!  That's why the "singles" ones and this are normally together.  Along with the Omaha Steak - I'm depressed because I'm alone, I eat because I'm depressed, and then I go on a singles website?!  I see what you are doing here Spam - I've got your number!

You can see the obvious connection to me and "X-Ray Technician" - so I won't even go into detail there.  And lastly 1Ink, perfect now I can get all my toner needs from them - because I have many of them!

Soooo according to my spam box - I'm single, depressed from not receiving Valentine's Day flowers, I'm a future x-ray technician, I'll prob die because of all the Omaha Steak I ate and I failed to "blast the belly fat" and will most likely not have any teeth.  BUT at least I'll have toner!!!  So there you have it folks!  Lizzie ….this is your life!!

Just A Few Week Things

Hiya!  Ewww I actually hate that I just said that.  It reminds me of that awful girl on Small Wonder - the one with the red hair…

Is anyone still reading this after I seriously referenced Small Wonder?! Sooooooo anyway...

Ok so 2 quick new beauty obsessions:

1.  I've been having some mayja black circles under the 'ol eyeballs so I really needed to address this. It's weird because they're not puffy, just dark circles.  I'm trying this out...

It's called "All About Eyes Serum De-Puffing Eye Massage" and I'm seriously obsessed so far.  Not sure it's really doing anything, but I love the way it feels, so if that's all I need right now, then so be it!  I enjoy Clinique products, generally they're pretty good and do what they say for not that crazy amount of money.  This was $26 - so not terribly bad.  Especially since the ones in the drugstores were about $20, I'd rather pay a little more and know it's a good product and I have sensitive skin, so I can't use just anything!

2.  Now I know you're all going to say that this came out years ago and why am I just NOW jumping on the bandwagon?!  

HOWEVER - this little gem, "Rosebud Salve" just came out in this packaging and that's why I'm obsessed.  I hate sticking my finger into my lip balm for a few reasons:  1)I'm OCD and I don’t like germs 2)As clean as I am, it's still my finger and then putting on my mouth/lips…you see where this is going 3)inevitably someone (usually the last person you'd want) will say "can I have some?" and then you're obligated and it gets awkward.  So I stick to this format and things stay clean and awkward-free!

What does everyone have on the agenda for the weekend?!  I have a few things up my sleeve and I'm thinking it's gonna be a good one!  Tomorrow night I'm going to a "grown up" networking mixer with my old sorority and a fraternity from my college days.  Should be VERY interesting.  It's an open bar - so I mean things may get a lil cray to the cray.  Although there will be 60 year olds there, so may not be as "poppin'" as I'm hoping.  Saturday I have a little outing planned to obviously find my future husband.  We're leaving this fine city in hopes to find our destinies!  We being me, Giuliana & Carrie. Should be interesting and I'll be sure to fill you in Monday!!  Have great weekends and stay warm! XOXO

A Little 'O This...A Little 'O That

So I clearly have some 'splaining to do.  

I'm so sorry about my absence.  Just when I say it's a New Year's resolution to be more consistent - you don’t hear from me for a week!  Not ok!!  BUT I do have a tiny ounce of an explanation - soooo please don’t leave me!!!

First off - last week - JURY DUTY!!!  Need I say more.  In this fine city of New York it's not just one day - it's a minimum of two.  Oh and guess who got stuck in a 3 day jury selection but then didn't even get picked?!  That’s  correct - ME!!  So angry - still it makes me enraged.  It prob would have been interesting too, it was drugs, attempted murder, etc.  And the worst part was that we were in the courtroom the entire time, which meant no cell phones, laptops, magazines, books, etc.  Nope we just had to sit there and listen to the questioning taking place.  Awful.  The only good part was that the judge was semi-entertaining so he did make me giggle quite a few times.  Oh and don’t worry I made friends with a 70 year old drama coach (out of the 100 other people there, this is who befriends me). And this was by far my favorite line of the whole 3 days.

Judge questioning one of the potential jurors:  Do you have a problem believing the credibility of a witness that has used drugs in the past and may have been using at the time of the incident?
Guy:  Actually I'd have a problem believing someone that wasn't using drugs.  All of the people I trust are drug users.
Judge:  Weellll that's a new one!  We don’t have time to get into this but…REALLY?!

And there you have it folks!  So that's how I spent the majority of last week.  Then I returned to work to a deluge of things to do - slightly disgusting. 

So that brings you up to speed and now I'll go over a few things from this weekend/some recaps and we'll go from there! 

- Jersey Shore - ummm I  may or may not have cried when Vinny left.  

Also I love that some random girl stole Pauly's necklace and then showed up at the door with it on.  

Ballsy and amazing. 

- I saw Contraband on Saturday night with Giuliana, let's just stay my stomach is still feeling anxious. It was awesome.  And I heart Marky Mark more than I ever have.  

Like I'm in love.  Is that weird?! We then went out for some Mexican food - had some amazing "skinny" margs (not the package kind - they actually made them from scratch).  Then we went to this most weird bar - I can't even describe it - but lets just say everyone in there looked like they were from the '90s - like straight up out of 1993. They were the motliest crew of characters I had ever seen.  At one point I thought Giuliana was going to get kicked out when some guy asked the score of the Patriots/Broncos game and the bartender said that the Broncos won and she was said - oh I thought Pats won.  He gave her a look of death and then said "we're never speaking again" and walked away.  Basically that was his way of "joking" with the guy and she "blew it".  Sooooo there's that.

- Golden Globes - I thought they were kinda flat.  Nothing crazy happened and I wasn't really that excited with them.  But I do have to give a few shout outs to best/worst dressed (in my opinion) and my guuurrll Reese - blew me away.  Like my girl crush is even larger now - I heart her - she's just so amazing. 

Best:

Worst:

Just not a fan - I don't love the severe red lip and the top - not my thing.

It looks too wrong - just too harsh or something.

Love the color, love the top, but wtf is going on with the bustle/right side.

This is way too old lady, doesn't do a thing for her.

Can. not. get behind the blue hair.  The dress is ok - not loving the shoulder pads.

Just no.  And it looks too small.

- Yesterday I saw Live with Kelly.  It was sooo fun.  She's a doll in person and was so fun and nice during commercial breaks.  And Seth Meyers co-hosted.  

Here's the thing - I know he has a girlfriend and all - but I'm just throwing it out there - I'm better and we'd have more fun.  So unless Jason Segal gets to me first - Seth - I'm right here.  Waiting.  Anytime you wanna ask me out.  I'll be here.  Sooo don’t wait too long.  I think you should be my husband. 

Ok so now you're up to speed on my life.  I know - so exciting.  I hope you're able to get through your days knowing all this about me!
