Workin' for the weekend

The only thing getting me through 3 tests and a paper this week?

-----

I'm going here on Thursday....

Maybe I'll throw my sociological theory book into the Bellagio fountains. We'll see how the test goes.

Celadon Wedding


I made this a while ago for my old roomie Lauren's January wedding. She is doing celadon, brown, and platinum..with gardenias and sand dollar flowers. I'm mildly obsessed with the dress...I'm gonna call up Monique later and put it on hold for 2019. Maybe Evans and I should go into business.

Threat

Psycho Carly has strong-armed me into a blog tag. Posting the fourth picture of the fourth album on your computer. She threatened to make inappropriate comments on my blog and facebook until I did so. She made good on her threats today with comments that include bodily functions that should not be discussed in public forums...everyone thinks I'm a dainty girl, and we cannot have that image being tarnished.

So, here ya go. I'm at work (or I'm not at work if this will get me fired)..so here is this picture of hellishness that is saved on our desktop for no apparent reason.

Squirrely

I want an entire Christmas tree covered in these for a little kid's room. I don't have a little kid, but boy, if I did, they would have a squirrel ornament covered Christmas tree.

Well there ya have it

After my 7 hour date with Wolf Blitzer and my recliner last night, I think I need a breather from any and all political analysis. So, instead, I will focus on the shallowest of campaign topics. Do you think we could do that? Yes we can...man, I'm hilarious.

First, Cindy. She looked beautiful in her little marigold suit. I think Lindsay is disappointed that we won't get to see her first-lady fashion come to full fruition more than the fact that her husband lost.

Usually Michelle looks beautiful. WHO FREAKING STYLED YOU LAST NIGHT WOMAN? And Jill...lime green? Lime green for your husband's vice-presidential presentation? Gracious people.

This was even more shocking because the Biden women are gorgeous and classy and are living my life in Nantucket...white jeans, polos and all. Give me a call Jill.


I think Obama's acceptance speech would have been even more affective with the following additions:
-A gospel choir singing "yes we can", not just chanting like the lame crowd
-Oprah giving cars to the entire crowd at Grant Park
-The 106 year-old lady that was mentioned coming on stage shaking her cane at him saying that she thought she was voting for Ron Paul
-Changing the 70's powder blue carpet on the stand to navy...honestly people...please consult me next time
-Brad Pitt and Angelina's kids doing a choreographed dance with Obama's darling daughters


Here's to the next four years!
But can we please put Ann in the white house in 2012?.. I would really appreciate the fashion blogging material.
So classy.

Anorexic Halloween

We were going for accuracy, and I think we did pretty good. Maybe I can lose 90% of my body weight by next year so I can look exactly like Mary-Kate.

Flannel, leggings, starbucks, scarves....complete lack of talent, starred alongside John Stamos, famous for being famous....check, check, and check. We've practically lived the same life.
