Just an FYI.....

If you are looking for some Scentsy discounts, there is a huge sale on closeout items going on right now!

Blurbs, because I apparently don't have anything important to say

Hi, folks! It's been two weeks since the last time I said anything. Longer since I said anything important. I do need to get better at this whole consistency thing.

Life is mainly back on track after the month-o-suck. Just busy. 

In the meantime, here are a few short points of my interest.....

I saw 'About Time' this weekend. Go.See.It. It's wonderful. Charming, funny, sentimental.... Just adorable.

Speaking of Rachel McAdams, there are rumors of her and Ryan reuniting. I'm crossing fingers that it is true.

This cute little buzzfeed exhibits why they are meant to be together.... http://www.buzzfeed.com/mackenziekruvant/ryan-gosling-and-rachel-mcadams-forever

My work FINALLY got me a decent phone. I've been stuck using a first generation Blackberry for 5 years.

Thanks to some finagling from our CFO, I was able to get a brand new Hot Pink IPhone 5c. It's glorious.

I wanted a cute display of my work perks for the cover of this phone. Shutterfly actually does have the option of getting a case with a liner (adding a layer of protection to what would otherwise be just a pretty piece of plastic). However, the design options they had weren't really what I had in mind.

I found exactly what I was looking for on Zazzle, but their cases didn't seem to be very protective.

That is where PicMonkey came in. I basically recreated the design I liked (with a few changes) in PicMonkey and then saved it as a jpg. Then, I went back to Shutterfly and used the option of just uploading one picture as your case background. In just a few short days, I shall have my customized-just-the-way-I-want-it phone case.....

It is ridiculous just how excited I am about a phone case.

Also, I'm not receiving any sort of compensation from Shutterfly, PicMonkey, or Zazzle. I wouldn't mind some free cards or a photo book, though, Shutterfly.

I feel both ahead of the Christmas game and behind it. I've already crossed several people off of my list in the present department (when usually I do not buy the first gift until Black Friday) and I have a set of cards already (thanks, Minted). However, I still feel like I'm playing the rat race game.

Running. I need to do more of it.

I also need to do some sort of weight training.

I just feel blubbery. Not good.

Monday Musings

Happy November!! Already, this is a great month.

Seriously, I think that at least 15% of my horrible mood in late Sept and all of Oct was the weather. Florida "winter" is more like everyone else's Fall. However, we didn't have one this year. So, basically we spent 9 months in a state of heat and humidity. Ya'll get Winter Blues? Well, I got the Summer Blues. 

It is amazing what a drop in the humidity and ten degrees of temperature will do for a person's overall outlook.

A couple weeks ago, I had the pleasure of meeting up with My Twin.

Marianne and I met through blogging and I just adore her. It's ridiculous how eerily similar we are.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Has anyone been watching 'The Originals'?

I love.

No, I really love.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I was walking through Target and saw these.....

NO. Just no.

Leotards or "bodysuits" are not acceptable in 2013, unless you are actually a dancer.

No.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Each year, my friends at work don cute semi-Halloween outfits. Then, we go out to a fun, yummy lunch.

Aren't we adorable?.....

Also, one of our stations was at a Halloween trick-or-treating event. This was our table after about five minutes.........

I did have more candy to replenish the stash, but we basically sat at an empty table for three hours.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'm a dork and already have my tickets for the 9pm showing of 'Catching Fire.' I.AM.SO.EXCITED!!!!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I spent all weekend wanting sweets. For which I am kicking myself.

Today? Today, I want salty and cheesy. For which I am also kicking myself.
