Puppy Love

I had the most horrifying dream the other night. Kanye was preggers and died giving birth. Obviously. Because he's a boy and he didn't have a way to birth the pups. So they basically clawed him from the inside out. Until he died! WHY DIDN'T WE JUST DO A C-SECTION?!? ugh. Hindsight is always 20/20. I worry about Kanye all the time. Every day he's not staying with my mom, I worry that he snuck out of our backyard or maybe he got out when D left for work. On my way home, I am always checking the neighborhood and praying I don't find him...

The Worst Thing!

My mom did an engagement photo shoot with Kanye and Bella on Monday!  He actually looks kind of hopeful and in love in these pics, right?! My mom's going to make them a cute little veil and top hat combo and  I'll dust off my Minister badge and we're going to get these two hitched!  Last night, D was having the WORST NIGHT EVER! Quick story. One day last October, D was having a horrible, terrible, no good, very bad day. We were getting ready to go to the Margarita Society Charity Ball in Dallas and it was...

5 Things

5 Things I'm currently obsessed with: 1. Losing Weight. Let's just get that one out of the way. It's all I'm thinking about these days but I swear I'll return back to my normal, sugar-cookie-eating self as soon as I've put on my swim suit cover up on that last day of that cruise. There. Done with that obsession. NEXT! 2. Our themes for the cruise! Last year we went with this classy Jersey Shore theme the very first night and I'm certain the tables near us at dinner were like, Lawdy, what have we got here... Slutty chic. The other...

Weekend Update

Friday High: I had been seriously lusting after this elephant drawing I pinned a while back but I could NOT find the source for it. So, I got on Etsy during my afternoon I-need-a-brain-break break and I found a smaller, equally adorable drawing for only $15! It's in Postal Service land right now but it will be hanging in my dining room area corner soon. My inspiration elephant. Probbbbably pretty expensive. Doesn't he just make you happy?? Kind of looks like he's smiling. My affordable stippled version of an elephant Okay,...

The D.E.N.N.I.S. System

I think I got D.E.N.N.I.S.'d at the gym today! Anyone who is not familiar with The D.E.N.N.I.S. System, please stop reading now and either go watch Season 5 Episode 10 of Always Sunny or just watch the below YouTube video. (TV-MA, ya'll) So, there I am, just doin' my little workout in the corner of one of the rooms at the gym, minding my business. And in walks The Guy. He introduced himself but I forgot it immediately because there was something about his super light wash cargo jeans and wife beater that told me this guy wouldn't be in my life for long. Now, The Guy did not follow the proper order of the DENNIS...

Weekend Update

Friday High: How completely baller our cabin was in Ruidoso! Seriously, we were geeking out about how cute it was! All raw wood and antlers and snowshoes hung in an 'X' on the walls! And the best part? The fireplace turned on with a LIGHT SWITCH! And the fire itself was behind a plexiglass window! THAT MEANS my man couldn't fuss and poke and fiddle with it all night, because nothing drives me absolutely nuts like him never leaving the dang fire alone when we build a fire! It was so wonderful! We all snuggled up on the sofa and watched...

Tulips from Outer Space

Friday Friday FRIDAY! I am going skiing this weekend dressed like a bear. Because... why not? D got me these fabulous fringed tulips for Valentine's day and they're perfect! I've never seen anything like them before so I said they looked like they were from Mars. And we decided Martian tulips would be a great premise for a horror film. The only issue is that it's a plant! Not cut flowers. So my first question (after saying thank you) was, "uhmm... are you going to help me keep those alive?!" He likes to tend to plants....

Friends with a Capital F: Part D

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY, lovahs! In honor of Valentine's Day, I thought I'd do a special Capital F post for D because when it comes to best friends, he takes the cake, putting up with my crazy on a daily basis and all. The quick and dirty history of D and I: D and I were classmates turned lab group partners turned study buddies turned friends in college. We both went through breakups our last year of college and he was my person that I drank wine out of coffee mugs and sat around playing video games and being sad with. He helped me...

Currently

Watching: Netflix! Mel and Andy gave us their spare Wii and it was set up on with their Netflix account! So, since we're criminals and all, we've been watching old episodes of The League and the other night we watched Snatch on their account. Thanks, guys! Eating: Less carbs. Less everything. Must. Fit. In. Swim. Suit. Goal weight.  ~10 or 15 pounds ago. My legs and booty will always be voluptuous so this is as good as I'm going for. Pay no attention to the fact that this swimsuit doesn't match. Thinking about:...

Weight Loss Update

It's grim, ya'll.  I lost about 8 of the pounds I put on (YaY!), then went to Houston this last weekend and gained 4 of it back. *sigh* Luckily, D is watching the cruise date approach, too, so I have a partner in "oh snap, how did we let this happen!?" I actually convinced him to agree to no carbs after lunch. He was like, "Yea... Okay. So... it's not like we're carb vegan freaks (I think he's talking about you, Mel). We're just... smart about our carbs". Yes, sweet boy. If that's how you need to think about it. So it's about to get real boring up in our kitchen at dinner time. Chicken and veggies. Now...

Weekend Update

Friday High: Hugging and snuggling my Mel! We got to Houston kind of late, threw on a pair of heels and went out to Baker's Street Pub for dinner and drinks, just like old times. Friday Low: Accidentally getting drunk at dinner. We were all sitting around at Baker's, chatting and catching up and I had a salad and some soup and was ordering wine and the next thing I know, I look at D and I'm like, "uhmmm I'm drunk" and he just kind of laughs and says, "oh yea, that wine getting to you?" and then about 20 minutes later I'm like, "No....
