More about me....

I 'm a 27 yr old girl. I am transitioning from red to blondish hair. I like to eat Italian food, fajitas, and CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES. I like to sleep in if I can. I don't stay up late and sometimes wear my make-up to bed. I hate to do laundry. I like to clean the house. I have a two puppies that I spoil worse than the cat, which makes me feel guilty. I'm addicted to pretty clothes. I like to dance around the house and blare the music. I prefer going out to having to cook. I want to work out but i haven't found the time. I want to be married to Lee forever. I hate when people lie to your face. I love diamonds and want lots of them. I hate MINI VANS. I love animals and want lots of land so i can adopt plenty of them. I love soaking up the sun by the pool or at the beach. I hate girls who have a tan as dark as can be since i can't get one hardly. I don't think you should wear tight clothes if you don't have the body to do so. I like to have control of the remote. I hate baseball season because it lasts too long. I would have plastic surgery if I really needed it (oops... already did!). I don't like it when you can tell they're fake. I love Iced Caramel Macchiatos. I love spending lazy days with my husband. I love to go swimming rather than just sitting there. I hate girls who wear make-up to the gym. I get jealous of Lee's poker. I want to find a way to make playing poker on the internet impossible. I love having Donald as my best friend, but at the same time I miss the mess out of Katie.. it hurts that she hasn't called to tell me she is pregnant, i had to find out from someone else... I love going to the movies. I love it when it rains, i think it is romantic and calming.. I am not afraid of hurricane season, but i am terrified of Tornadoes.. I want to be rich and i want to be a housewife. I finally have a job I enjoy. I pray when i see car wrecks and funeral processions. I miss luther so much it hurts.. and see alot of him in Teddy and that makes me miss him more, yet remember him fondly. Did I mention I love pretty clothes?

Question

Q: How are your Saturday nights different now than they were five years ago?
A: 5 years ago we were still in college, so Saturday night meant there was somewhere to be. Either a Sigma Chi thing, or back home going out to dinner, or Donald and I throwing a video game deal at one of our apartments. Now we either go out to dinner or cook at home and lay low. No more bars!

Haircuts

Well I am not blonde yet, we started with highlights. She had a toner out on after, so I suspect after a few shampoos it will get a little brighter. I am going to go back in 2 weeks and get more. And then more before our trip in June.


Not only I got my hair done, the puppies did too! Teddy was matted so he got shaved, and i think the groomer was confused because Lola is pretty much shaved too. I think they were busy and rushing this time, I am a little unhappy... But they are still cute. Teddy looks like he has the wrong sized legs!.

The pups also have seat-belts now because I will be driving them alot in traffic to be watched while the kitchen is being re-done. I had them once and stopped short and Teddy fell in the floor... so this is safer. You can see that Lola is thrilled!

Tonight we are having grilled halibut and saffron orzo. I have lost 5-6 pounds so far and have 10-15 more to go for Skinney Bitch status!! I only have 8 weeks to do it, so I need to be super serious the next 2 months. This will be hard since we will start eating out 90% of the time with the kitchen gone. I mean, I am NOT doing dishes in the bath tub!!
Smart One's should let me endorse since I will be eating their food so much!

Rhut-Roh Rorge...

So i walked into work today and Deborah said "Woah... you feel ok? You look whooped!" I slept well last night but I can't seem to shake the fuzzy feeling of having just woken up. Yesterday around 2pm I got this terrible "i am about to fall asleep at my desk!" feeling. I hope I am not getting sick. Booo!

Rambles...

Ok so I have an appt to get my hair done on Friday. I am going to talk with her about how realistic my goal is. If it will be difficult, then I will wait until May to do my hair. I just don't want to look bad in the pictures on the 30th.
Lola has decided that pushing her ball under the sofa is a fun idea. We have an old duvet fill shoved under there because she would do this so often and then she barks at you every 30 seconds until you give in and get it for her. Now she has discovered that you can still shove things down the side which means I have to lay on the floor with a hanger and dig the ball out. She currently is in barking stage and since I have been doing it every night this week, I refuse! She alternates between going to the side of the couch here it is and barking, to standing by lee's head and barking. Once she stops (if ever) i suppose I will get it for her...

This guy at work, a client, called me at 4:30 today to tell me he was going to call me in the morning to talk about a project. So... he called me to tell me he was going to call me? And I also have a meeting with him tomorrow at 2 to go over a project to get the cost down.

Teddy will be 1 soon! I don't know what I should do for him! He is so big and we just love him to pieces. I hate that he has to get shaved, but he may actually like it. He pants alot and as pretty as a long skirt looks, he may just need to be short.

So after the great-hair-color-debate is done, I will put up a picture.

Off to bed (early!!)

To blonde or not to blonde... that is the question...

A little over a year ago, I went from blonde (for all my 26 years of life) to red. And I really love the red! I am the only one in my family that is blonde and can't tan! So the other day I asked Lee if he preferred one or the other and he said "I would like to see you blonde again at some point." So now I am obsessed. Do I do it now? Do I wait until Summer? We have a photo shoot set up for April 30th and I don't know if I should do it before then??? I am about to make an appointment, either way I need my hair done, and I don't know what to do!! I was watching The Hills last night and like Lauren's color. I don't look good with really really light blonde hair, i get too washed out...


Ok so here is me blonde:



And Red:


Now the Red picture is better because I had on makeup and the sun wasn't in my eyes!! I don't know what to do! I feel silly!

Addiction Continued...

So on Hungry-Girl.com, I read about these Tofu Noodles that will "change your life!" I found them at Central Market today so I am going to try them either tonight or another night and see how I like them. In extreme frustration, I am unable to find Boca Meatless Chili. I found another brand but the website had said how extremely awesome this stuff was and I needed it to make taco salad tonight. So, if this brand is yuck, I will try the noodles! I mean, the entire package of noodles are 40 calories... how badass is that????
