Boot Shoes

Hip Hip HOOO YAA! It is Friday.

I am beyond excited for this weekend
Specifically This:
Well not actually that since I don't know that dude, but we will be attending an ugly sweater party tonight. Yippee!
Then... THEN
There will be shopping tomorrow, and a GINORMOUS holiday party at a friends. With a Band. And Food. And hopefully sequence.
Then... THEN... TTTHHHHEEEENNNN
Sunday= Christmas Partay with my fam, since I will be jetting off to the winter wonder land that is South Dakota and Colorado for Christmas.
Pretty rad line up, right?
To express my excitement:

Monday

Today I dropped off some holiday goodies to one of my customers and stated that "well... since today is Friday, I think they will be here on Monday or Tuesday." The problem with this statement.... today is MONDAY! I am super competent, just can't keep my days straight.

My Sure Cure for the Grumpies

A few weeks ago I was wallowing in my lack of social life due to being on homework house arrest, when my little brother, Nick, Came to my rescue with this:



At first I laughed hysterically. Oh Miley, you look almost as awkward as me when you dance...

But this quickly evolved into a deep love. Eventually it was Rhonda and I driving to the turkey trot with this song on repeat, much to her three year old niece's dismay (you see she is a true Miley fan and prefers the more obscure songs).

Not to mention this video reminds me of Country Thunder.... what if Miley was at CT this year!? Squeeee! I get excited just thinking about it!

Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Christoper Elbow

Last Wednesday I did my Boss Lady a favor and dropped her cute little granddaughter and her (still buzzed/wasted from the previous night) friend off at the airport. 7am. Despite how it sounds it wasn’t bad. In fact, it was kind of fun to pick up two freshman girls from the dorms, who were ready to fly home for the first time since departing the nest… sigh, those were the days!

Wait. I never lived in the dorms, and my parents have never lived more than 20 miles away from me… but a girl can live vicariously, right?

Anyhow, here comes the point. As a thank you my boss gave me the most adorable chocolates I have ever seen in my entire existence! If there were an America’s Next Top Chocolates, these would win!

Now presenting Christopher Elbow Chocolates:




Aren’t they way cute? I bet they taste great, would make me skinnier, smarter, and more beautiful (because that’s what chocolate does, duh!) but I just can’t bring myself to eat them, it seems too destructive…. Like that time I had a dream that I purposefully broke all the ink thingies on clothes to ruin them… what a horrible thing to do subconscious, Shame On You!

Just thought I would share this cute little treat with ya’ll.

Happiness is an XXL circus tent

Today I got a little giddy when I was invited to view my Aunt Rachel's snapfish album of Mattalies wedding.
.
Unfortunately, three pictures into the 714 picture album was this horrific scene:
Oh and here is picture number four:

SEXY SEXY SEXY

This lovelyness was at the wedding rehearsal, and it was negative 764 degrees outside- so to keep warm I had to borrow my uncle Tom's XXL Kenneth Cole jacket. I promise there is a cute dress hiding under that circus tent. There is my explanation for the outfit.

As for the face... there really isn't any excuse. I guess that is just how I look at wedding rehearsals. God Help Me!

Guess who's coming to dinner!?

Lunch actually, but the sentiment is the same.

THE SCHOCK'S! (the Boys parents)

I guess it's official, after almost two years of dating, Danny and I have decided that things are just too perfect, and that we should probably shake it up.... How are we going to do this you may ask? Well by introducing my quirky family to his lovely parents.

YES... My Mom, Dad, Step mom-Diane, three siblings birthed of the aforementioned women, four dogs, one fat cat, and a partridge in a pear tree.
(one of these things will not be attending the lunch, can you guess which one?)
Please say a prayer for the Schock's, they no not what they are going to embark on.

This post is actually a request more than an actual post: What should I serve for this little black Friday luncheon???


Oh and I wanted to share my coping mechanism...

Any time things get a little intense, I will close my eyes and envision this:



I finally made it through Science and Social Studies Methods! and I am pretty sure that I got out with a big fat A (despite splatering red food coloring on the first row last night)! Partly because I was obsessive compulsive about my assignments .This is a new development, I have NEVER been obsessive compulsive about anything, well anything but the below list:

* Milk, and if it has crusties at the top of the jug (gross)
* Sheets that someone else may or may not have slept on (double gross)
* Having clean feet, this my largest camping challenge. Out door peeing? BRING IT!
* Mason Jennings
* The Mayan Calendar
* Twilight- the books, I can't get down with the movies.
* Beating Tracy at workouts :)
.
One thing that I NEVER was obsessive compulsive about- HOMEWORK!
.
Anyhow, to Celebrate I had a fatty bagel this morning with pumpkin cream cheese.
.
This reminds me, I would like to amend my above statement to include pumpkin flavored things during the fall. I am a little obsessive compulsive about that too... coffee, cream cheese, cake, beer.... Wow those french fries look delectable, do you think I could get pumpkin added to them?
.
I digress...

The Bagel:


I also spent some homework free time surfing the web and saw this (at Idiy):

This is the twin sister to the banner that I had hanging up at Mattalies shower, and to think my one original, un-stolen idea, is in reality not original.

I love it though. Now it lives on a large mirror in my bedroom. This way every morning when I awake I can think CELEBRATE!

- The semester is almost over!

- It is a 2 and 1/2 day week!

- I will be eating 5000+ calories this Thursday (damn you good morning America!)

- Pumpkin Flavor.

CELEBRATE!
