Thursday Shenanigans

Hey dears! It's Thursday! Also, there are less than TWO weeks until my birthday. Luckily for you, you still have plenty of time to get me a birthday present. ;)

In other news, I have plans to be extremely productive this weekend. I know I've said that a lot in the past, but I really believe that to be true. So...without further ado: some Thursday Things. (aka SHENANIGANS!)

  • I was fairly tame in college. No extreme late nights, no crazy parties. It seems that I might be making up for that now. This is difficult because I'm older and my body needs sleep more than it did as a 20-year old co-ed. ha. Life is fun.
  • Solider Boy is the sweetest future boyfriend a girl could ask for. I'm so glad he's my friend right now.
  • I danced in the parking lot in the rain last night. It was amazing. :-)
  • Tonight I get to go to Blue Tango. I LOVE Blue Tango. Seriously, if you're anywhere close to Cougartown and have a love for dancing, then you need to get your butt there pronto. It's great fun.
  • Tomorrow I get to go to Ft. Douglas. I've never been there!
  • Also tomorrow I'm going to the temple w/my bestest roommate, Roommate R! :o) I'm rather excited to be there with her tomorrow.
  • I went to a really good Thai restaurant last night. It was nummy. 
  • My trainer is pretty fantastic. He has made me find muscles I didn't even know existed. My inner thighs? They are sore. :P
  • My hair is getting REALLY long and I LOVE it. :o) It's great.
  • I already have an idea of the epic summer adventures I'm going to have - it's going to be one GREAT summer. :o)
  • Finally, here's a list of everything else I'd like to get done (there's a TON more I WANT to get done, but I'm trying to be realistic here)
    • clean off bottom of night stand
    • clean out and clean off cedar chest
    • clean bathroom (maybe. still debating this one. ;) )
    • Update St. Patty's day wreath for door.
    • Decorate for St. Patty's day
    • Start to make (maybe do the whole thing?) my new bag for Disneyland
    • Make a spring table runner
    • clean out fridge
    • clean out pantry - organize it!
  • Sounds do-able right? right. :o)
Have a great weekend everybody!

This happened yesterday:

Christmas threw up in my living room. here, i'll prove it to you.


yup. definitely a disaster zone right now. so what do I do to combat the disaster that I need to deal with?

  • I made a mail organizer. (I tried to follow this one tutorial, and then....me being my mother's daughter I tried to guesstimate on my own measurements. This mail organizer is one of THE ugliest things I have ever made. but....it's functional!)
  • made a pumpkin pie. I did not do any pie baking for Turkey day (we ate dinner @ Mimi's cafe...that story coming later!) so today I did a little baking here and there.
  • made my favorite jello salad. I'm cooking dinner tomorrow night for Monkey Man (and maybe some friends? we'll see) and I'm rather excited about it!
  • danced around in my kitchen to the wonderful sounds of Michael Buble and She & Him Christmas albums (seriously, they rock. go buy them! The She & Him one is only $5 on Amazon MP3 Downloads right now!)
  • went and bought fun new Christmas floral things. as if i didn't have enough Christmas stuff to begin with...
  • and now I'm contemplating making some new pillow covers for the holidays.
and yes...the mess is still in my living room 24 hours later...ha ha ha ha. I promise it will be gone....eventually. ;)
