5 Things

1. The Starbucks Reduced Fat Turkey Bacon Egg White Sandwich on a Whole Wheat English Muffin - Gluten free? Nope. Organic? Don't think so. Dairy free? Not even. Delicious, convenient and keeps me full until lunch when I snoozed 4 times and don't have time to make a breakfast (which happened like three times this week)? Ab-so-lutely. 2. White nail polish - It takes me back to Home Room in 8th grade, painting my nails with a bottle of White Out and then picking it off the rest of the day. But it seems to be all over the blogs. And, I...

Water Works: An Update

Tomorrow (today; I wrote this Tuesday night) is going to be SO exciting. Do you remember my post about Water Conservation from WAY BACK in 2012? Well, tomorrow, I have a big presentation. Huge. And if it goes well, it's one giant step for my company's water conservation practices. And I'm like a buzzing little hummingbird, like a hummingbird on Red Bull and Adderall, just freaking out about how exciting it all is. It's actually a misnomer to say that I have a presentation tomorrow. I have a whole slew of people flying in tomorrow...

Puppy Love

No puppies were posed in the making of this blog post. This is the true story of how Kanye makes sure I do not forget to take him to my mom's house to play with her pup, Bella. Oh Good Morning. I think I shall keep an eye on you and make sure you don't try to leave this house without taking me with you. Don't mind me. But really. Take me to Bella's house to play please. I'll just wait here for you to finish getting ready. But don't forget about me. How's your breakfast? Good? Good. Ok. You have shoes on....

Weekend Update

Friday High - The new Theory T-shirt I got at TJMaxx for like 15 bucks tied with dinner, drinks and gossiping with Ashley. Hipsters be crazy. In labels.  Friday Low - OMG where do I begin?! With the flat tire at 6am? Or the issues getting the spare on? Or how about the line at Discount? Or even better, the fact that Discount didn't take my company Car Maintenance Card so waiting in the 30 person line was a waste of an hour of my life. Boo on Friday. Oh hai, the lug wrench doesn't fit the lug nuts. Cool. Loitering...

I'm a Crusher, Cady, I'm a Crusher.

You guys. I have a problem. Can you guess what my problem is by this picture alone? If so, you might also be a Crusher. Back in the day, when I had a Blackberry... with a tracker ball... and touchscreens were a thing of the future... I was a BrickBreaker fiend! I barely even noticed the state of Hawaii when my family went to visit. I was too busy Breaking. You know, the little pong game where you break tiny squares with a ball bouncing around your screen? What is it about that concept that is so timeless? We are going to be playing...

Obamanation

Why? Why do people hate Obama so much? I realize I'm naive. I realize there is a lot more evil in our government than I'd care to know. And I know Obama is in a position of power that some people believe he is not using correctly. I get that. But why JUST Obama?? Why are signs like these that I saw in a convenience store window in Mayhill, NM so common but signs of this nature about Governors don't exist? Or Senators? Or Supreme Court Justices? Aren't they ALL responsible? And when people say the government is corrupt... how? How is...

choreographed light saber dance fight

Oh yes. You read that correctly. D and I went to his cousin's wedding two weekends ago and although I took a blogging sabbatical, I'm not going to not blog about that wedding. It was BY FAR the most interesting and memorable wedding I've ever been to! He proposed at a Star Wars convention. They were registered at ThinkGeek.com. I mean, I was kind of expecting some... eccentricities. And by that, I mean I was HOPING for some eccentricities. But their invites were pretty typical and the venue decor led me to believe this was just...

Currently

Alright alright alright alright alright! I'm sorrrrrrry. No good reason for not blogging for a whole week other than a case of PMS that had me laying on the couch refusing to do anything productive whatsoever. Multiple nights involved me asleep by 8pm. Being a lady is hard work. Watching: The Spurs go! And also slowly working our way through the new Arrested Developments. Holy macaroni, Portia de Rossi looks SO SO different! I thought it was a totally different actress! She's not as good of an actress anymore... Ellen has ruined her. Eating:...

Summer Bucket List

Today I'm on the road so I wrote this post ahead. Why I feel the need to disclose that, I'm not sure. I guess I don't want you thinking that I'm spending my time in the passenger seat typing a blog post on my iPad. No no. That would cut in to my napping and/or asking D random questions ("Do you ever meet someone and wonder if they have like... a really dark secret?" or "If you could quit your job and open a small business, what kind of business would you open?" or "What ARE this?" speaking in a Russian accent while pointing at things...

Friday Friday Friday!

Muahahahahahahaha it's my Friday, y'all! Tomorrow, Daryl, Kanye and I are loading up in the truck, hitching up the Jeep and hittin' the road. First stop is D's cousin's wedding in Albuquerque, New Mexico. This will actually be the first Gonzales family function I've attended! I've met one set of aunt and uncle but this will be my first time meeting most of his family. I have no idea what to wear. I got a red lace dress and D said his aunts would love it because "they love lace and crochet and stuff like that" haha but I'm not sure...

Chickens!

When I was younger, my mom used a tactic with me where she wouldn't tell me 'no' when I came up with some scheme or obsession. She'd just listen politely and nod and then go about her business because in a couple days, I'd have a new obsession. Typical mom stuff, no? The stuff that was really important to me stuck around and that's when she knew she'd have to actually deal with the fact that I wanted pink hair or 18 piercings in my left ear or, Lord help us all, to be a spy. Unfortunately, I never outgrew this childhood quirk, as...
