Midweek Confessions

How much do I love that you can do bullet points in blogger? ALOT! I just totally forgot the three points I was going to post 24 hours later and I still can't remember what my points were. snap! I got some new makeup today thanks to the suggestion of Pink Lou Lou. Desperately trying to be a GIRLY Girl and master makeup- even tho I have no clue how to put it on properly I also bought a pair of fake eyelashes. I'm going to attempt putting them on again. Someone stop me if I end up looking like Amber from Teen Mom Speaking of Teen Mom, I stood in line for so long at Walmart that I got suckered into buy a Teen Mom magazine. 

Mid Week Confessions

I bought some glasses online and realized I needed them fit to my ears because they kept sliding down my nose like a little old lady. I decided to take them to Sears, where I had purchased glasses the year before, in hopes they wouldn't realize they weren't Sears glasses. All was well on the first visit. However I needed them tightened just a bit behind my ears so I went back a second time and the Dr was working. I gave him my glasses and he looked at them and I could just tell. He asked me if I had bought them online. I cannot lie to save my life. So my eyes go up and to the far right corner of the ceiling and I say in a very high pitched trying for innocent voice "maaaaayyyyyyybbbeee??" He laughed and told me it was ok, he was just curious about the quality of them and how if any they differed from store bought ones. So we talked about that and he said you don't remember do you? I said remember what? He said you were here last year and we had a whole convers...

Mid Week Confessions

I have been SO beyond crankysauce the past two afternoons. It seems like noon hits a switch from Happy Cherrybear to CRANKY Cherrybear. In my attempts to get my house looking clean and put away I may or may not have taken the boxes that aren't fully unpacked and I don't want to deal with, and put them in my spare room/office-which is quickly turning into my junk room. Which would be all fine and dandy if I wasn't having a house guest in a few weeks. Whoops. A few weeks ago I had the most humiliating thing happen to me at work. I was coming back from lunch and my Chiro apt had ran over, so I was really hustling it to make it back to work on time. There weren't any parking spots in A-the lot right by the building, so I ignored the Do Not Enter signs, and grabbed a space in the big parking lot and ran to the building, ran to the elevator to try and beat the clock.  One problem. The whole Do Not Enter. The head of security saw me illegally doing that and radio'd...

Mid Week Confessions

I have voicemail anxiety. I get nervous when I see I have a voicemail on my cell phone, no matter WHO it's from, I will almost do anything to avoid listening to it. In the same vein as last week getting obsessed with food, I realized I also get obsessed with TV shows. This is only worsened by the fact that I got rid of cable at the beginning of this year and now watch Hulu Plus and Netflix from my Roku, which I LOVE btw. Since i'm not flipping thru channels, I tend to stick with watching all of the seasons of one paticular show. Earlier this year it was Greys Anatomy, then In Plain Sight, and now The Glades  Which is great, minus the part where Hulu Plus doesn't have all seasons, so I end up buying a season on Amazon. Sneaky, very sneaky. Sometimes I don't know what day it is unless I look at my clothing. Pink=Weds, Jeans=Friday. All other days i'm just here.  One of the rare things I will miss moving to the other side of town, (FRIDAY! EEPS!) is my McDonald...

Mid Week Confessions

I had one of the most embarrassing moments of this year last week, which I can't believe I'm going to admit here but here goes. I was at work on Tuesday impressed with my really cute Target dress I was wearing. I bent down to get my grapes out of the bottom crisper drawer and unbeknownst to me I had a static cling issue, and the liner of my dress bunched up and rode WAYYYYYYY up. It all happened so quickly I didn't realize it until someone came up behind me and told me the color of my unders. You'd better believe i grabbed the back of my skirt, RAN to the bathroom, and after making sure i was alone, contorted in all kinds of positions in front of the mirror to figure out what was shown and HOW I did it. I really try to be Modest, so this was beyond egregious to me. I was thankful to realize that my dress had not shrunk to hoochie level, and it was merely the static cling that made it ride up. Still though. Talk about EMBARRASSING! I'm not going to wear that d...

Mid Week Confessions!

Monday I used the electronic pencil sharpener in our office to sharpen my eye brow pencil (makeup) from home since I packed basically everything in my home. It worked so well I contemplated getting my own instead of a wussy makeup sharpener. Not gonna lie, later in the day I used a paper clip to get something out of my tooth. (Right now would be where My Mom would say that's the reason she carries floss with her at all times.. yeaaah..) I am completely in love with these shoes! Flip Flops, Bows, and Glitter. I am in HEAVEN!! Our suite holds around 30 offices. Two of those and held by people not in our division, because of space issues. The problem is, that one of the offices gets visited by an Adjunct who looks almost identical to one of our adjuncts. So whenever either of them walk into our office, to enter the suite, neither of us know which person it is. The Real Adjunct, or Not Adjunct. (adjunct substituted for real name)  EVERY....

Mid Week Confessions

It's that time again. You know how we do this thing!! I was in the bathroom at work, washing my hands, congratulating myself on putting together a somewhat decent outfit, when I noticed something hanging from the arm of my jacket. The price tag. Complete with Orange Clearance Sticker. The sad thing is this is not the first time that I have worn this jacket. I have been singing along to one of my favorite songs for a few months now, but one part of the chorus I wasn't sure what she was saying, so I kind of just mumbled and made up a word that sounded like it fit, but totally wasn't a word. I had an AHA moment this morning when I realized FINALLY what the word was. And it was an easy one, which made me feel even more stupid.  I listen to NSYNC regularly. Yes, I know they haven't been popular in years, but they were my favorite band as a teen/college student and I have mad love for them. I'm not ashamed to say when I get married "This I promise you" w...

Mid Week Confessions

I really want to wear false lashes since I have such puny lashes, which just clumped and fell out this weekend, again, grrr, but i have no clue how to put them on!  I tried once and it was a massive fail. I have really been trying to live in the moment and not be so focused on capturing every single moment with a picture, hence the lack of photos on the blog. But I struggle when my nephew is around! On one hand I want to be present and in the moment, but on the other hand I want to get as many of him as possible since I get to see him so little. Which means I take tons of him and then realize at the last possible moment that we only have one picture together the entire weekend so I try to get a decent picture with him, and he's tired and wanting a nap, and getting a picture with a toddler is like trying to wrestle an octopus anyway.  Massive fail. Then I feel bad that we don't have a nice "Framer". I really don't feel like I LOOK like an adult most of t...

Mid Week Confessions

Tim Tebow at the Met Ball is my new computer background and I am not ashamed to say it! I spend an inordinate amount of time on Craigslist every night trying to find a decent priced Queen Sized bed. My church is now following me on Twitter and after I saw that I told Kim that I guess that meant I had to stop complaining so much on Twitter and behave myself. I drop food on myself. I'm pretty sure this has been well documented on here. Last week we took MWS out for a surprise thank you lunch and I totally dropped a fork full of food on my chest. #canttakemeanywhere I fell prey to the colored denim trend and bought myself a pair of pink capri's. The Jury is still out on whether they are cute on me or not. I'm 30 and not a celebrity so the odds are not so much in my favor! I talk to myself in the grocery store. People most likely think I'm nuts, and possibly I am, but I talk to myself while I shop and look at products. I really need to stop but it...

Mid Week Confessions

Last week I had email and phone communication with Company ABC that I order products for at work. For two days we went back and forth trying to sort out an invoice discrepancy. Finally, I scanned my paperwork and sent it to them, to try and track down what had happened. 40 minutes later I received an email from my contact explaining what had happened. The invoice was for a DIFFERENT COMPANY. Could be why she couldn't pull up our invoice numbers or the correct account number. I was hugely embarrassed and decided we could never order from that company ever again. I get my news and weather updates from Twitter. I had no clue we were under a Tornado Warning until I saw Tyler had tweeted it.  Sometimes, ok alot of times, I wait to do my dishes until 1. my sink is full or 2. i run out of glasses. I just HATE doing dishes in my sink and my dishwasher doesn't work. I am pretty doggone excited about spending the coming weekend on my couch. I have been somewhere 3 out of t...

Mid Week Confessions

I confess that I have a slight bit of road rage. When I am driving on a 4 lane road, especially when the lane ends, I really get mad when people come up beside me in the ending lane and want to pass me to merge in. You know the lane ends, behave yourself and merge in instead of trying to pass me to get 3.4 seconds faster to where you're going. You're not going to get there faster if you cause a wreck!! I also have a big of parking lot annoyance. For the past several months at work I have been parking in the same spot. Two weeks ago out of nowhere someone has started STEALING my parking space! No my name is not on it, but seriously people. Stop it! I only get more annoyed when I see that they have a pair of handcuffs hanging from their rear view mirror. To me this looks 1. Stupid and 2. Trashy, and 3. Tells me it's one of the CJ majors that work in student patrol, which is located RIGHT INSIDE THE DOOR THEY PARK BY! Like seriously!! You work right inside the door. Wal...

Mid Week Confessions

This is rather embarrassing to admit, but, I got a letter from the Library informing me my privileges have been revoked. Apparently a book I returned had wet pages, (ahem from my milk spilling, yes It's my fault) I *stupidly* thought since the book beside it, which was mine, dried, then it would be fine. Um yeah, not fine. Whoopsie! Now I have to go chunk down twenty eight dollars to have my privileges returned and I'm wondering if this is going to go on my permanent library record???! I went all day today thinking I looked super cute and so put together until I saw the pictures I had taken and went UGH. Why is it that you can look in the mirror and think your hair and outfit look good and then see yourself in a picture and realize you were greatly struggling? Am I the only one this happens to? My breaks need replaced on my truck and this is resulting in very LOUD squealing and grinding noises. I am SO embarrassed when I go to church and people hear my loud truck. Nowh...

Mid Week Confessions-The Crankysauce Edition

So I know E is on vacation this week (oh how I wish to be her!) but let's face it, I've got alot of stuff to confess. So E or no E, the confessions must go on!! I am learning that I have a huge character flaw of when I am stressed or in a bad mood, irritated, ect. I just want to be left alone. I don't want people to ask me questions, or have to chit chat, I just want to be left alone. This goes well at night since I live alone but doesn't play out that well at work when I work in a front office with 2-3 other people. I'm beginning to fear for my future husband as this isn't going to work out so well if and when I get married. Separate wings anyone?? Something KMuss said at Bible Study last week really stuck with me. I've heard it before and really needed to hear it again. She said that our Joy should not come from our circumstances and our emotions.  Oh boy howdy, I confess that I am horrible at this.  I live life on my emotions, or so my Mom tell...

Mid Week Confessions

I may or may not email Kim and Audra with the subject line of "Important" only to have them open the email and read that I need outfit help. I also may or may not have emailed a co worker with the subject line of "HELP" in order to get her to come up to the front office and watch a student for me so I could escape to the bathroom. Desperate times call for desperate measures. I get insanely proud of myself when I have made it to 2 pm without getting any items of food on my outfit. Yes, I am 30 years old and still working on this! I really should stop writing these days ahead of time, because the following day I spilled milk on my shirt before 7 am. Before I had even left my apt for work. Do you see now why I need outfit help? I buy food at Menards. Before you think this is insane, they have quite the selection! For example, I love Frosted Mini Wheats, well Menards has their own off brand of them, which are quite good, and their 27 oz box was 1....

Mid Week Confessions

I did my dishes for the first time in 3 weeks last night. Now before you think I'm slovenly I will say this is because my Mom has dropped by my apt the past two weeks and done them for me. I may have waited to do them until she came though in hopes that she would wash them for me. I had loaded mashed potatoes for a snack Tuesday. A 9:30 am snack. In my defense I need to grocery shop and it was that or tuna. I have on a white ruffle shirt with my Pink Cardigan today and I am so worried that I'm going to get food on it at lunch. I have a huge tendency to get lunch on myself. And no, I'm not 4, just that talented. Yup. Totally got tomato juice from my sandwich on my shirt. Attractive! And I just realized all of my confessions have to do with food. nice.

Mid Week Confessions

  Have you noticed that I do really well at blogging when I have fun events to talk about, but I'm seriously struggling on the day to day blogging?  There is a lady in our parking lot that is a hoarder. like serious, hard core hoarder, if you opened the back of her vehicle stuff would fall out. I am slightly fascinated and horrified by this. As I got out of my vehicle today I looked into mine and realized if I don't clear it out soon there will be two of us here. I still have not gotten used to my new cell phone, so bless their hearts, my poor friends are getting all kinds of weird texts. It is not my fault! Samsung keyboards are alot different than my old keyboard! I still don't know why they need 5 arrows on it to go all over. It's not a word document people, just a text! While we're at it, I'm still having trouble answering my phone, Because I can't find the answer and the speaker button. I almost panic when someone calls me because I...

Mid Week Confessions

Last week I was so proud of myself that I had eaten my lunch and not gotten anything on my sweater. Until about 3 pm when I was in the restroom washing my hands. I looked at myself in the mirror, and thought, huh, what is in the cowl neck of my sweater? Lettuce. It was Lettuce people. I had been walking around for 3 1/2 hours with LETTUCE in my shirt. I love that it's warmer outside, and in the 70's this week, but I am not looking forward to having to shave my legs everyday again. I may or may not have purposely waited to do my dishes when I found out my Mom was coming to drop off something at my apt, because I was hoping she would do them for me. I totally ate my pierogies for Breakfast, instead of the lunch I was saving them for. I have a crying fest in my truck in the Menards parking lot the other day. I was out of tissues in my purse, and was so relieved to realize that I had a package of toilet paper in my back seat that I had been forgotten to , been to...

Mid Week Confessions

I confess that I let my annoyance and temper get the best of me and let Twanda out this morning. I have an awkward hair-do today that Bryna would say "oh nay-nay" to if she saw it, but in my defense it is super windy outside and curly hair+wind+not cute. So I pulled it back. Awkwardly. After having the stomach flu this past weekend I am still slightly terrified of food. Which makes for a great diet plan I have to say! "I'm only one stomach flu away from my goal weight!-name that movie! I talk to myself in my truck, while driving. And when I see that someone parked a MOPED in the parking space I use at work, I was really talking to myself, super annoyed. I didn't realize this until I parked in a different spot and turned to see the girl in the car next to me looking at me like I was all kinds of crazy. OK while we're at it, I talk to myself in stores as well. I was contacted for a Contest on my blog and with my birthday and then the subse...

Mid Week Confessions

I get *WAY* too excited when I see that I have a new Blog Follower. It makes me feel so popular!! I am still overwhelmed trying to find a place to live come July. I find something I think I like and then in some way it just doesn't work, or falls through. Getting discouraged. And then thinking of the ones I know who have sold houses and have nowhere to live, then I feel guilty for stressing so much. I made my Monday night  Piano Student raise her right hand and pledge to always follow Pink Wednesday, every Wednesday, No matter what. And yes, I even had her say "I Do Solemnly swear" I may have also taught her how to play Happy Birthday, just so she could play it for me on my Birthday. I may be celebrating my birthday all week long. Why not? I'm struggling with the blogging lately. With my new schedule of teaching three nights a week and Bible Study on the other night, I'm only home on Friday nights and by then I'm exhausted. I could blog ...

Mid Week Confessions

I may or may not *sometimes* wait to do my dishes until I have 1. No cups left or 2. no bowls left. This may or may not have happened over the past week as well. I also think of confessions to write all week long, and then when it comes time to write them I totally forget each and every one of them. Old age sucks. I *stupidly* bought a tanning package at a local tanning company and went tanning twice over the weekend. Until I realized that my back was flame read, and i felt like I had pin pricks all over my entire body.  Again, Stupidly, I had not looked at the medicine I take before, Stupidly, buying this package. Yeah, on a medicine where I'm not supposed to be in excessive sun or tanning beds. Fabulous. Again. STUPID! All because I wanted to be tan for my birthday. sighs. Last week I went downtown to have my Violin re-strung. I get lost everywhere I go and have no directional sensibility. I was driving around trying to find the building (which had a sign on it smal...
