Rootbeer Floats

rootbeer

I’m addicted to rootbeer floats, and it’s all Mike’s fault. He took me to a frozen yogurt stand that had the best $0.99 rootbeer float ever, and it’s been all downhill since then!

So much so, that I had to stop at the store and buy ingredients to make them myself because Dairy Queen was getting rich off of my rootbeer habit.

I realize something is missing from the picture, and on my trip to Target last night, I bought a box of striped straws.

Gastric Bypass

Star Jones finally fessed up!

Hit Weddings

brideMike and I eloped so that we wouldn’t have to deal with any Wedding Planning, and our wedding celebration, as cute as it was, was about as much planning as I could handle.

Weddings are a huge undertaking, and if you’re up for the challenge, Hit Weddings can help make sure you are prepared. There are tips on everything from invitations to wedding favors to writing vows.

The website is super cute and well organized, which I think lends itself to credibility and trust that Hit Weddings can help you pull off a beautiful ceremony and reception!

Letterman visits Ball State

lettermanI graduated from Ball State in 2002. Never heard of Ball State? It’s where David Letterman went to school. Now you’ve heard of it!

Every year there was buzz that David Letterman would be coming to a homecoming game or to speak at commencement, and it never materialized, but now that the brand spankin’ new communication and media building is being named after him, I guess he really is going to show up!

Letterman has been a big contributor to campus, sponsering three annual scholarships for telecommunication students for the past twenty years.

New Bedding from Terry’s Fabrics

StratfordSince Oliver has a tendency to get a little too excited when he plays and ends up peeing on my bedding, I think it’s time for new quilted bedspreads on all the beds. Terry’s Fabrics offers beautifully bedding that creates a calming atmosphere in your bedroom as well as keeps you warm and comfortable at night, so that you can unwind in style. It’s also machine washable!

Merry Merry Quite Contrary

Oh, Merry Miller. You made such a fool out of yourself. It would be a teensy bit understandable if it were Brad Pit or George Clooney, someone that would make you star struck, but it’s Holly Hunter. You got tongue tied because you were interviewing Holly Hunter. Via satellite.

Really…it can rain indoors

I wasn’t joking when I said it was raining in my living room.

The water absolutely has to be because the upstairs neighbor causes a flood when showering. The water clearly had soap bubbles in it.

Drip Drip Drip

I walked out of the bathroom this morning to see my dog, Ollie, sitting in the middle of the living room, looking around trying to figure out why it was raining indoors.

I immediately called maintenance and left a message, telling them I could run over as soon as they were able to take a look. I get the call around lunchtime, hurry home, and the maintenance pokes around, and then goes to talk to our new upstairs neighbor.

He comes back down and says that he figured out where the water was coming from and it shouldn’t happen again.

The girl upstairs was showering without a shower curtain and flooding her bathroom.

Next she’ll be using the toaster in the bathtub.

Tie a knot in that thing!

If you’ve forgotten how crazy my dog is, let me remind you…

Last night I threw him on the bed while I was putting the sheets on because he likes to jump around and play while I wrangle my bed back into order. After I took that little video, I threw my big down blanket on the bed on top of him, and he hopped around having a gay old time.

All of a sudden, it looked like it was raining in my bedroom. He got himself so excited hopping around, that he peed all over everything, so I had to strip the bed again and start all over.

Personalized School Supplies

I used to get SO EXCITED when it was time to shop for school supplies. untitledFresh pencils and notepads were the only reason to go back to school. I can’t even imagine how excited I would have been if all of my school supplies were personalized from Identity Direct.

I could have gotten a Tinkerbell lunch bag with my name on it! Which totally would have come in handy, because we had some Jello thieves in first grade. The teacher actually smelled each of our breaths to see if we had stolen the cherry Jello from another girl’s lunch.
