Have you ever?

Washed your pants on a Sunday night, hung them to dry, and then come Tuesday morning when you put them on realize they are still damp? But, it is too late to do anything about it because you are already walking out the door for work?

Oh yes.. I am wearing pants that have a damp butt and waist.

Steve the Cat

I am the proud owner of a cat that loves to snuggle.... that is until he has had enough, and then he will bite the crap out of you.

Also, I used the FREE photo editing site Picnik to play with these pictures. It is easy to use and incredibly addicting.

Fantasy Football

... is crazy! Mr. Account is in a couple leagues, I am even in one myself, but my work neighbor is insane about it.

All day long I hear his constant phone calls about the league / player trades / rules / playoffs / random stuff about all the players, etc.

And all of these conversation are held on speaker phone. I think I am going to go crazy.

Team Aniston

I know the whole Team Aniston / Team Jolie thing was so 2005, but I have always been a fan of Jen Aniston and will continue to do so.

Here is why… If I think a celebrity would be fun to hang out with / go shopping with / share a pitcher of ‘ritas with, then I like them. I think Jen Aniston fits all of these requirements. Angelina… not so much. No doubt, she is a wonderful humanitarian, but she is not my cup of tea. So, when she was recently quoted saying that she fell in love with Brad while filming Mr. & Mrs. Smith, that moved her even further down my list. Everyone knows that Brad and Jen were still married at that time. Why would she add fuel to that fire? Let the past be the past. No need to rub it in Jen’s face.

The Hair Trifecta

I have expressed how I am borderline obsessed with my hair. I am not going to lie – I love my hair and I really hope that the baby gets my hair genes. (I know that is is bad to wish for your unborn child to possess certain genetic traits, but oh well….)

That being said, come October / November, my scalp gets really dry. Not everywhere, just my hairline. Combine that with dark brown hair and well, you get the picture. I think I have finally found the right combination to solve this problem.

Olive Oil. Tea Tree Oil. Plain Shampoo.

After extensive online research, I think this is the best combination. Once a week, I will smell like I salad - olive oil rubbed onto the trouble spots, then covered with a shower cap for 30 min – 1 hour. And tea tree oil shampoo is all I use now, but I make my own. I added a couple drops to a half empty bottle of Suave clarifying shampoo and voila! I have only been doing this for a couple of days, but I noticed a huge difference immediately. Flake free, plus soft and shiny!

Self Magazine

This seems like it might be legit.... I guess we will see in a couple weeks!

Click here for a free subscription to Self Magazine. This is one of my favorite magazines - they have such great exercises and it is easy to read while working out.

Spotted

I love all things Gossip Girl... and Blair is my favorite! In this week's episode, so looked FABulous at her birthday party. Love the hair. Love the blouse. Love the makeup.

If you have an extra $1,990, you too can look like Blair. BUT, if you are wanting the top to look just like hers, then you have to make a trip to the tailor.

But my main question here is how she got her make-up to look that way. It is absolutely perfect. I am going to be on a quest to perfect that look.... tips or suggestions?

A day in the life...

Sample phone conversation from yesterday morning:

Mr: You left the milk out this morning.
Me: Did you put it up?
Mr: Yes.
Me: Why are you calling to tell me this? Get back to work.

I am not the only one that gets these types of phone calls – right?!?
