This Happened

So this happened yesterday and made my day. 


I think 1000 views is pretty cool.  I'm a huge dork, and I don't care who knows it.  Have a WONDERFUL Friday!!!

Maybe I Should Get This

I was watching Ellen when I got home yesterday {yes, I do TiVo Ellen, and HIGHly recommend it if you need to get your daily laugh on} and she showed this little video

Given recent events, I think I could get some use out of it.  I figure if I am not going to be communicating with people via the modern way, why would I take pictures the modern way?  But then that would mean that I would have to stop watching tv, stop using my cell phone, stop using this computer, stop blogging...OK, wait, wait, wait, wait, WAIT, forget it, I don't think I could live without Facebook AND you!  You guys keep me going through this difficult time.  So to you I say, THANK YOU!!!  And please don't stop reading.  :)  

Happy Wednesday!  Half way there peeps...HOLD ON, we can do it!!!

P.S. This was also on Ellen.  NBD....
Can I have him???

Running Out

On Saturday night, after taking care of the CUTEST kids ever, my good friend Aubrey came over and stayed with the Battles.  Aubs does not enjoy staying at her apartment by herself when her BF, Dill is out and about on the town, so we invited her to spend the night.  Anyway, we spent 45 minutes talking about these puppies....





...life is not as exciting as it used to be.  Ha ha.  Sorry that I am running out of things to talk about, but that's what happens when you don't know what's going on in the world and you're stuck at home with no where to go. 

ATTENTION WORLD:  I disappeared from Facebook, not real life...GEEZ!!!

What a Concept...

Today was the first Saturday that I have had to work during Lent.  My productivity was way up.  And by way up, I mean THROUGH THE ROOF!!!!  Maybe something good will come out of this "sacrifice".  Maybe NOW my boss will stop looking at me like this:


And start looking at me like this: 


Only time will tell.

 Hope your weekend is Super Bad Ass Sweet Daddy Jones!!! See ya. 

P.S.  I didn't miss FB much today.  Looks like EVERYTHING is looking up!  :)

Getting Status Updates Via Nicole is NOT Cheating

FB has become such a part of my life, that I sort of feel out of touch with the world.  Yesterday I went to lunch with my lady friend, Nicole, and she asked me to clarify what my dad's status meant.  I reminded her that I was in FB AA and that I had no idea what she was talking about.  {See, I can't even get through lunch without FB being a part of the conversation.}  Anyway, she continued to taunt me by sending me this text:


I really doubt that she will stay true to her word and not tease me anymore for the next 37 days.  It's a cruel world, people.  ;)

Have a Happy Thursday everyone!!!!

Day Two

Day two of Lent.  All limbs are intact.  We're off to a good start.  However, I was playing around with Photoshop online, and I desperately wanted to make this my profile picture:

UGH...my ♥ hurts.

  

P.S.  I almost clicked on the FB link on my shortcuts menu.  Time to remove it from the shortcuts menu.  Temptation sucks.  HUH...maybe this is like Lent, NOT minus the Jesus part....

Lent

Hi Blog Friends, how was your weekend?  Mine was AWESOME!!!  Girls sleepover was a HUGE success.  However, I have not gathered you here today to discuss that.  Today I am here to make an announcement...

 I was reading through the blogs that I love the other day, and came across a blog post about this girl that has vowed to be celibate.  My first thought was, WOW, Bitch is crazy.  My second thought, I haven't given up anything since Lent '99.  {Way back when I was still a Bulldog at good 'ol JMCHS.}  You know that time every year when Easter was coming and it was time to sacrifice for 40 days?  And it was right then and there that I made a decision.....

I made the decision that, I too, was going to give something up.  But what?  What could I give up for a short period {40 days is nothing} of time?  There is no way that I was going to vow to be celibate...are you kidding me?  Husbo and I JUST got married.  So I continued to think....What is a guilty pleasure that I don't need?  Something that I could eliminate from my life, and in the end possibly make my life better????  And then it hit me, like a golf club to the head, I have become EMBARRASSINGLY addicted to Facebook.  So it is here, on this blog, that I VOW to you, Blogsters, that I will be giving up Facebook for 40 days and 40 nights.  Like Lent...minus the whole Jesus part.*

And to prove to you how embarrassing my addiction is, I am going to make a list of all the reasons why my addiction is a bad thing {I guess this could be sort of like confession}

~ Signing onto FB often.  Often includes, but is not limited to:
              First thing in the morning
             At the stop every other stop sign on the way to work.
             In between phone calls at work.
             During a recorded statement. {Sorry Lynn}**
             Upwards of 30 times during FBS
             Upwards of 30 times during work
             Upwards of 30 times during anything that gets too boring
             Sometimes if I wake up at 2:00 am, I'll take a little sneaky sneak
           
~ Changing my profile picture more than once a day.
~ I once tired to erase the app from my phone and see if I could stay off...it lasted a day.
~ I mean, how many of you know what we did on our honeymoon???
~ How else would my family rallied over 1000 votes to win a free print from our wedding photographer
~ I updated my status 3 times today.  Lame.  I don't even want to know what's going on with myself THAT much.
~ I'm guilty of facebook stalking....I do it all the time. 
~ My feelings get a little hurt when my friends post pictures and I'm not in any of them.  {If FB is controlling my mood, this might be the best decision I have EVER made.}

Okay.... I think I have embarrassed myself enough.  The list could go on and on.     

I hope that I can make it the full 40 days without the thrill of a notification.  {Yes, seeing that little red box at the top of the page gets me all hot an bothered}  So if any of you facebookers are reading this, maybe you can let me check on your facebook for you? That's not cheating, right??? 

From this point on my profile has been deactivated.  Don't worry, I can reactivate it with a click of a button.   
I have no idea what I am going to do with all this free time.  Maybe I'll take over the world????

K, Love you lots.  And Facebook...I MISS YOU ALREADY!!!

*i don't know who reads this blog, but if this offended you, I am sorry.  that was not my intent.
*this doesn't really happen, just trying to get a laugh. ;)

Is This YOUR Tube?

This morning I was feeling down, and then I saw this on one of my home-boy's {yep, I'm gangsta} FB page


SERIOUSLY?  Who is this kid?  Did it make you smile, laugh, pee a little?? I'm still laughing and I watched it 12 hours ago.   

While we are on the subject of videos, here are a couple more of my favorites:


Yes, Ladies and Gents, that is La-Lohan her self, high kicking away!  Love it when stupid people do stupid AND funny things. 

Now I KNOW that a lot of you have seen this one, but it's a RIOT.  This little lady has got it right. {Sorry if you've seen it.  You're welcome, if you haven't.}



Who doesn't like BACON?  {Well, besides those vegan/vegetarian/pescetarian people}  This kid, on the other hand, has taken it a bit too far...



And last, but most certainly NOT least, a little Lionel.



Hope you've enjoyed this little bit of visual stimulation, and I hate to leave you, but like Lionel says "hello",  I have to say good-bye.  I have to go brush up on my hair braiding and nail polishing skills.  Tomorrow is Girls SLEEPOVER 2010!!!!

PEACE....I'm outta here!

A Little Piece of my Heart

This, my friends, is my cousins little girl, Mireya.  Just thought I would share.  She makes my heart melt.  Especially when she tells her mom that she wants to wear barrettes in her hair and a sparkly scarf like me.  One day I might steal, I mean, borrow her!!!






AND, their little boy, Nolan, isn't bad either!!! 



Sorry if this post was useless to you, but it means the WORLD to me! 

Have a happy first day of September everyone.
