Confessional Friday (4)

Linking up with Leslie again at A Blonde Ambition for one of my favorite link-ups.

I confess that this weather makes me want to roll the windows down on my car, drive around, listen to country music, find a field, and stare at stars.

I confess that I used the last of my favorite OPI nail polish sample. It's one of those small bottles and I have no idea what the color is called. My manicure turned out all thick and chunky since it was the end of the bottle.

I confess that eating every sweet and carb insight was terrible for my weight loss but at least I'm back on track.

I confess that I used my credit card rewards to get some Old Navy gift cards so I could get more clothes.I bought like 3 dresses. I can't wait until they get here.

I confess that I want to try the new Wendy's flatbread sandwiches, but let's be real, I REALLY miss the Pita sandwiches they had back in the early 2000s. Do you remember those???

I confess that the paint chipping off my bumper from the hail storm a few weeks ago is really irritating me. I don't want to pay to get it fixed. I also feel that this is ridiculous and that half the issue is that the paint job must have been shitty but I can't complain to Toyota. WTF.

I confess that I did a Confessional Friday link up last week and forgot to actually link up!

I confess that I'm using this disgustingly high pollen count as an excuse not to run. But seriously, when I ran the other day with the pollen count at like 4000 my throat was killing me.It felt  like it choking me.  It's at like 7000 today so I'll be even worse.

I confess that I'm trying to be more proactive about my happiness. I am very lucky all things considered. I shouldn't be comparing myself to others and feeling so competitive with job searching.

I confess that Steve will be here in 25 hours (he gets in at 11:30 am tomorrow) and I can hardly contain myself as the hours creep by.

I hope everyone has a good weekend and a happy friday!

Confessional Friday 3

I confess that I have been pretty much watching nothing but 30 Rock. That's why I have all these weird Liz Lemon references.

 

 I confess that I am a little over excited for Mad Men Season 6 to start Sunday

I confess that I ate four bunny Peeps the other day. My parents and younger brothers surprised me with a quick visit on their way back to Pennsylvania from Valdosta on Monday where they were visiting my brother and new nephew. We had dinner and hung out and they left the next morning. They brought me peeps and a chocolate bunny!!

I confess that I finally decided to do that thing to my phone where I make the apps and background all crazy girly. I'm not sure how its going to turn out. I kept going back and forth on this decision. Has anyone else done this??

I confess that all my friends with puppies make me jealous. I don't have baby fever I have puppy fever.

I confess that for the past 4 days I've been eating ever carb and dessert I can. What is wrong with me?

I confess that I was looking at the amount of weddings we have coming up this year and when they are and got nervous about all the gifts and travel expenses especially with the fact that I am still looking for a job in the DC area. They are mostly family weddings, too. This deadline of June is creeping up way too fast for me and the struggle is getting real.

I have a lazy weekend ahead but it is T-minus 8 days until Steve is here for a 4 day visit and I can't wait! Friday took way too long this week!


Also - Happy Birthday to my good friend JULIE! We've been friends since high school, used to plan our fake futures in AP Euro and on AIM freshman year of college (more on that later).

Confessional Friday (2)

Happy Friday! Linking up with Leslie at A Blonde Ambition again for Confessional Friday.


1. I confess that I haven't been doing so well at my whole make up make over.  Remember how I was going to wear less makeup? Yep, that didn't happen.  I mean I'm not wearing like 3 colors on my eyes anymore, I have one all over shade and darken the corners a little bit which is less than I was wearing before, but I'm still putting on foundation, concealer, bronzer, eye shadow, eye liner, mascara, and filling in my eyebrows. My routine is going a little faster and I'm using less foundation so all in all less make up isn't my thing.

2. I confess that I'm going out tonight for a friends birthday and I bought a new dress at Target. I'm a little low on spending money this month but I decided I'd rather not eat than buy this dress. This is the first time I've ever decided that. I used to wonder how women picked fashion over food. . . I get it when it's the right dress. I got a great dress and a great necklace. Obviously things I can wear again.

3. I confess that I've been cheating on my diet with these chocolate covered potato chips. I'm sorry, I'm trying to only have like 2 per day but they are so good.

4. I confess that when I shop alone, I talk to myself in my head like I'm Rachel Zoe. I say things like "Oh, I love a good chambray!" "Bah-nanas," and "Look at that peplum. OBSESSED!" It's kind of ridiculous.



 5. I confess, well, okay, this one is embarrassing. I was hard boiling eggs the other day and I heard this weird chirping.  I SWORE it was coming from one of the eggs. The water was just warm.  I mean deep down I KNEW there wansn't a baby bird in that egg that was still alive.   However, leave it to me not to think "Oh hey, these have been refrigerated, I'm sure if there were a baby bird in the egg it would be dead, not  chirping." I swore I was going to cut one open and find a dead baby bird I could have saved. Nope. Eggs were all clear. I'm just crazy.





Those are my confessions for the week.  I have an exciting weekend ahead and I plan on posting about that Sunday evening.  Thanks for stopping by!

Confessional Friday!

I got really excited about this link-up with Leslie from A Blonde Ambition. 
I heard about thanks to Nadine at Back East Blonde.

First of all, my favorite part of reality shows are the confessionals.  People are raw, honest, and say ridiculous things, especially the Jersey Shore confessional. . . 

SO the fact that I can confess some things to you seems pretty great!

1.) I confess that I haven't been eating my chocolate (yes I only got chocolate candy) from The Sugar Factory as slowly as I wanted.  It is just so good. 

2.) I confess that I considered going up to DC this weekend and then realized 10 hours Friday and 10 hours Sunday was just way too much for me.  I'm sorry, Steve, I love you, but that's exhausting.  For more on why Steve is in DC and I'm in Georgia read about the move here and his job here.

3.) I confess that I was so obsessed with House of Cards on Netflix I finished it in like 3 days. Seriously, if you haven't watched it, do it NOW. If you don't have Netflix, it's worth the subscription to watch it. I am now re-watching Lost from beginning to end. Around Season 4 or 5 I got annoyed and boycotted it until I could just watch the whole thing and get answers.  The last episode I remember involved time travel and a bomb. I'm currently on Season 2.

4.) I confess that with the sun coming out, I'm dying to get a tan.  I am naturally the color of a marshmallow. This weekend, I will be purchasing some Jergen's Natural Glow and maybe another product to speed the fauxbronze along.

Sorry for the Twilight reference. This was like 3 or 4 years ago, okay!

5.) I confess that I love and hate my new running/work out. When I say running, I mean alternating walking, jogging, and a few short bursts of actual running. I love that I'm not getting up early and I'm normally pretty motivated after work, BUT I'm hating how lazy I am afterwards. Seriously, I just put on my pajamas, have dinner, and sit on the couch (and probably watch Lost) until 10pm when I finally go to bed.

6.) I confess that I'm trying to wear less make up every day. I usually put on a full face (more to come on that). It's a weird adjustment, but we'll see how that goes.  It wasn't that stellar this week, to be honest. 

7.) I confess that when Steve left, he left shampoo and body wash here. On the weekends, when I know I'm probably not leaving the house, I totally use it so I can smell like him - well, kind of.

With all of that TGIF! I can't wait to do a whole lotta nuthin' this weekend.  
Hey, Netflix, this means we're cuddling.
