i haven’t made time to ride my horseypie at all this fall. what is wrong with me? i miss him a lot!
i stayed up aaaall night long reading the other night, finishing the third and final hunger games book. [loved this series! i didn’t think i would actually love it so much, but it definitely sucked me in.] and when i say all night, i mean steven was literally walking out the door for work as i read the very. last. line. it was crazy. usually reading puts me to sleep, but nope, not on this night. i was so gung-ho to finish and now i’m mildly devastated that it’s all over! and thank goodness i had nowhere to be the next morning.
i. believe. in. coffee.
is there a take-your-wife-to-work day? i think there should be one. i want to go to work with steven and watch him in his work habitat. and distract everybody from being productive.
i’ve kind of been having a mad love affair with etsy lately… not that i wasn’t already in love… but now that i’m a for real etsy-er myself, i can hardly leave it alone. i want to make themed treasuries every night and then browse through other people’s. [these are the ones i’ve made so far!] such a gold mine of beautiful things… people are so cool. also, i’ve totally been doing that instead of pinteresting. sorry, pint.
in a fit of sweater cravings, my mommy-dearest and i went thrifting together yesterday evening and got a whole bunch of super cute sweaters for an absolute steal. such a good feeling! i love treasure hunting like that. some people really don’t like it, but it makes me feel like i found an awesome secret that no one else can have. honestly, if i had the patience and the self-discipline i’d never pay full price for anything. oh, if only.
oh, but on the topic of being thrifty, i recently bought exercise socks at the dollar tree. yes, i did, and it was scary. i was like “who AM i?” and then i texted my brother about it. but you know what? they’re squishy and i like them!! exercise socks are basically disposable anyway, right? [people from the 1800s are turning over in their graves at that sentence because they totally had to “darn” all their socks.]
vampire diaries >> gossip girl. [what happened to you, gossip girl??]
not thrifty: want. want. want.
i keep a list of words i like on my iphone. example: espionage. and i keep list of words i hate on my iphone. example: stipend. ew. if you want to discuss words ever, i’m game.
sometimes when i eat pumpkin pie for breakfast at lunch time, i’m like yessss, i’m a grownup and i can do this if i want! and then i just feel sick. i don’t usually do that. but, well… i did today.
i may or may not know all the words to “oh, canada.” and i may or may not have had my eyeball dreams fulfilled when my two favorite canadians, biebs and buble, twitpic-ed it up together in front of christmas trees last week. oh my g. you know, if ryan gosling had been in that photo, too, the world would have definitely exploded. oh, canada. stop what you do to me, i don’t even know you!
my christmas playlist is 11.5 hours long. which is just not enough, if you ask me.
i think i’m legitimately going to read twilight for the 4th time. i’m a little prone to obsessive behavior. try not to psychologist me. or, i mean, you can if you want.
Don't start fretting about your age just yet! I'm 29 and I have been fearing the big 30 which is still a good 8 months away!!!
My Christmas playlist isn't that long either I play lots of oldies in my classroom during december while they create masterpieces!
New header!!! I miss your old one I loved the cursive script…Is your script font hand written by you or is that a font you purchased somewhere?
I confess I haven't read the hunger games series just simply fear of I won't get into the books (futuristic and fighting for survival I dunno seems like it would be hard for me to "enjoy")
Loved this post! You are so cute!
I love these random thoughts…
Hunger Games. I've heard about these books, i'm just not sure why i'm not reading them yet. I better get on this.
I need to get in to thrifting. Your luck with sweaters inspires me. Especially since I can't afford whole priced clothes.
Conglomerate…best word ever, at least in my sorta limited vocabulary. I should work on this.
Vampire Diaries. I've never watched this show, but I love GG, and if it's better than that then i don't see how I can go wrong. And, since we're on the subject of vampires, i'll just say that I totally get your Twilight OCD tendencies. Too bad the first time I read them it almost ruined my relationship with the fiance. oops.
um i am pretty sure we could be great friends because the majority of these confessions = me. including the fact that we are not discussing that i turned 25 this year. also, do i need to start the hunger games!?
literally, every single sweet, enthusiastic, witty confessional of a post gets better and better.
so blessed that i get to watch my beautiful sister's creativity skyrocket!
I love lovely, random posts like this 🙂 although you did make me feel really old, heheh.
ha! loved this whole post. so entertaining! I can't waittt for Christmas! and lucky for me, people here in Amsterdam are already in full-on christmas mode! I have thought about starting the hunger games series, but haven't yet… perhaps I should. and pumpkin pie for breakfast sounds soo good 🙂
Hehe! I loved this. I believe in coffee too! I totally feel the same way when I eat dessert in the morning!! Haha!
When I read the hunger games my husband was SOOOO mad at me! I would have my little side lamp on in bed until 2 or 3 in the morning. I loved the series. Once I finished the last book I was devasted. I want more! I can't wait until the movie comes.
Also, I never NEVER pay full price for clothes. I'm a total bargain shopper but my hubby still hates it because he says I have too much. I can't help it. I just cannot get rid of things. You never know when you are going to need it. So I have all my old (probably from middle school) and like one new thing bi-weekly.
cmae, yes that is my handwriting 🙂
lost & found, conglomerate is AMAZING! and vampire diaries is super amazing. i'm obsessed. still love GG, too, i just don't think it's as good this season!
whitney, we could so be friends!! and yes, hunger games was tooootally worth it!
I am a thrifty shopper too. There is just no point to pay full price when I can find almost the exact same thing at Marshalls, TJ Maxx, and Ross. My favorite Nine West shoes I got at Ross for $15 and they were orginally $45.
Vampire Diaries and Gossip Girls are my favorite shows. They are so good.
