Vrrrom Vroom..

  Random Trivia Day:
   Do you know what always makes me smile? EACH and every time I see one?


   Ding.. Ding! A Sweet Limousine..

      Did you ever play those little paper games growing up? You know, the ones where you wrote out what you wanted to drive, where you wanted to live, how many kids you would have? I ALWAYS wrote down a limo as one of my choices. A white one. One with 80's style lights, a  hot tub, and an endless supply of Diet Coke. I'm not sure why- something about it seemed totally awesome to my 5th grade self. I have a good chuckle now at the thought of driving a limo to work everyday, hauling my speech materials in the trunk.


On my way home today, I saw a white stretch limo.. and giggled like a 5th grader.

Winter Wonderland...

Winter Wonderland
Winter Wonderland by 662 Eaton featuring glass shades

      Hip Hip Hooray! Another snow day tomorrow! Now what on Earth shall I do on my unexpected day off??? Hmm... 

 As for tonight, tooling around, knocking down my TiVo percentage, and playin'  is right up my ally. I found a nifty little website from a magazine that lets you throw stuff together. Jazzy, isn't it? And if I had unlimited funds right this very second to spend on my snow day---sigh... all those goodies would be going home with me.

Awkward and Awesome Thursdays...err, Friday

Happy Fwiday (speech slang for TGIF)! Here's to a semi-sane week! Recently, a pal sent me a link of a lovely, little blog. Indeed, quite lovely. After stalking her blog leisurely reading a few posts, I have stumbled upon a re-occurring theme-- "Awkward and Awesome Thursdays". Yeah, you get the idea. Head scratchin' thoughts to ponder on all things weird and wonderful. 

                                     
What a hoot! After laughing at a few, I am pleasantly reminded of how "fearfully and wonderfully made" we all are. Forget about what others think of you! This month, I am gonna relish in my awkwardness-- and wince painfully at yours, too!

Awkward: -wearing tights to work. Point of clarification- wearing ripped tights all day, after an "overaggressive" therapy session, at 8:00 in the morning. 
                       - having a kiddo (much later in the day) tell you "your rip looks like the letter /F/"...... uhh thanks??
                       - Unknown caller: "May I speak to Lindsey, please?"
 You: "It is she"( or is it: "I am her", "Here I am", "It is me".. so weird)
                      - Driving home( still with tights on), catching the car next to you fervently picking their nose. They notice too. Awkward eye exchange. (Do you smile/ nod/ look away/ pretend you were looking at something else?)

Awesome: -my current obsession with Krylon Satin Almond spray paint
                      - Ann Taylor Loft's jewelry line...but it might be awkward that I like it. I am turning into a Maw Maw.
                            -a PK kid FINALLY understanding the difference between over and under..whew..
                     -my manly husband needing Vitamin C Gummi Bears.
