It's my turn...

:)

I haven't been on here in pretty much forever but I didn't want to disappoint Andy because he said he was sure that I would post this up when it happened... So why not?

I'm ENGAGED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Who knew Jenny's wedding would come true?!

And yes... it is to Andrew Robert Smolenack.

Truthfully, I did it for the rock. What girl in their right mind would turn down one of these?! Forget that we've been going out for almost two years... it really is for the pretty sparkle!

Jp babe. I love you. And I'm very happy. And it took you freakin long enough!!!!

I was having post-wedding depression after Jenny's nuptials were all said and done, but now we get to start planning again!

"Preggers"

Okay... I have to know... WHAT is WITH this word "preggers" that I keep hearing around?

In an email that Jenny sent me yesterday, she told me "don't pull a J&T and get preggers before the wedding!"  I ignored it, thinking that it was just another one of those weird things that Jenny would say. (and no, there's no wedding as jenny's statement suggests, I'd have to get a less committment-phobic guy first . I guess letting me move in after a year and four months is good enough?! )

Then this morning... I heard one of the DJ's on a morning show say that "it's rumored that Lionel's daughter, Nicole Richie, is preggers." AGH! It's driving me crazy! It's like the work chillaxin' or ginormous or GUESSTIMATE. UGH... except this one isn't really a mesh of two words. Still, it sounds very annoying. And by the way... as a professional business person in a REAL company, you really shouldn't use the word GUESSTIMATE in a business conversation. You sound like an uneducated idiot.

One thing for sure... you'll never EVER see me say on here "I'm PREGGERS!!!" If so... someone please shoot me.

On a brighter note... guess what's coming out in less than a month?!?!?!?!

HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HOLLOWS!!!! 7 of 7!!!! Whoo hoo!!!!

Okay... and on a LAST note, this is the stupidest thing I've heard of in a while. How ghetto can the parents be?!!??!?! Imagine growing up and having to introduce yourself... "Hi! I'm 4real" Uh... yeah.

Pair told not to name son '4real'

WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) -- New Zealand authorities have blocked a couple's bid to officially name their new son "4real," saying numerals are not allowed.

Pat and Sheena Wheaton said they decided to name their new baby "4real" shortly after having an ultrasound and being struck by the reality of his impending arrival.

"For most of us, when we try to figure out what our names mean, we have to look it up in a babies book and ... there's no direct link between the meaning and the name," Pat Wheaton told TV One on Wednesday. "With this name, everyone knows what it means."

But when the parents filed the name with New Zealand's Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages, they were told names beginning with a number were against the rules.

The government office has opened negotiations with the parents about the name under a policy that says all unusual names must be given case-by-case consideration.

"The name has not at this stage been rejected," Registrar-General Brian Clarke said in a statement Thursday. "We are currently in discussions with the parents ... to clarify the situation."

Clarke said the rules are designed to prevent names that are "likely to cause offense to a reasonable person." Satan and Adolf Hitler were proposed names that have been declined, he said.

If no compromise has been reached by July 9, the baby will be registered as "real," officials say.

New Zealand law requires all children born in the South Pacific nation to be registered with the Births, Deaths and Marriages registry within two months of birth.

I'm moving in with the boyfriend and am selling absolutely EVERY piece of furniture/electronic I own... even the *gasp* couches!!!

Sofa couches

Yes... mine look EXACTLY like that except mine still have tags on them. Hahahaha...

My Craigslist ad:

I'm moving out of my condo into a place that is already fully furnished so I must sell my most beloved pieces of furniture... a sofa and loveseat that was purchased a year ago. The situation with my furniture is an interesting one... spur of the moment buy with my roommate, both of us never home at the condo to use the couches and I being anal retentive have never taken the sale tags off of them.

I don't have pictures of my actual couches so was able to find these online from Ashley Furniture. I GUARANTEE that my couches look EXACTLY like the pictures posted here.

Stats on the couches:
Color: Stone
Fabric: Microfiber
Protection: Teflon
Set: Sofa & Loveseat (just like the small picture)
Age: <1 year old
Usage: 3% over one year

I am willing to part with the entire set for $600 obo.

On top of this, I also have to sell:

~ a 36" SONY TV (tube) with matching TV stand/entertainment center (remote included) $250 obo.
~ a 20" Panasonic TV with internal video tape player (remote included)$50
~ a Samsung 6 changer DVD player (remote included) $40
~ a petite black basic armchair with wooden legs (purchased at bed bath and beyond) $25
~ a white TV/entertainment stand (can hold a 36" TV no problem)$25
~ a DVD stand that holds up to 120 DVDs $20
~ an upright basic black halogen torch $10
~ plastic four drawer stand (black & clear) from Staples $5

Anyway... I just got an email from a girl who's interested in looking and buying most everything because she had moved in with her boyfriend and sold all her furniture and it didn't work out... and now needs to buy. EEPS!!!  Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaandy!!!!

Andy emailed this to me and I got a good laugh out of it so I thought I'd share it with everyone else...

And also... I can't help but think that this would be EXACTLY Omar's view of a great idea... if you've ever read the stuff he writes about on his xanga...


When you occasionally have a really bad day, and you just need to take
it out on someone, don't take it out on someone you know, take it out on
someone you don't know.

I was sitting at my desk when I remembered a phone call I'd forgotten to
make. I found the number and dialed it. A man answered, saying "Hello."
I politely said, This is Chris. Could I please speak with Robyn Carter?

Suddenly a manic voice yelled out in my ear "Get the right f***ing number!"
and the phone was slammed down on me.

I couldn't believe that anyone could be so rude. When I tracked down
Robyn's correct number to call her, I found that I had accidentally
Transposed the last two digits.

After hanging up with her, I decided to call the wrong number again.
When the same guy answered the phone, I yelled "You're an asshole" and
hung up. I wrote his number down with the word asshole next to it and
put it in my desk drawer.

Every couple of weeks, when I was paying bills or had a really bad day,
I'd call him up and yell, "You're an asshole!"  It always cheered me up.

When Caller, ID was introduced, I thought my therapeutic asshole calling
would have to stop. So, I called his number and said, Hi, this is John
Smith from Verizon. I'm calling to see if you're familiar with our Caller, ID
Program?  He yelled "NO," and slammed down the phone.

I quickly called him back and said, "That's because you're an asshole!"

One day I was at the store, getting ready to pull into a parking spot.
Some guy in a black BMW cut me off and pulled into the spot I had
patiently waited for. I hit the horn and yelled that I'd been waiting
for that spot, but the idiot ignored me. I noticed a For Sale sign in
his back window which included his phone number, so I wrote down the
number.

A couple of days later, right after calling the first asshole (I had his
number on speed dial) I thought that I'd better call the BMW asshole too. I
said,

"Is this the man with the black BMW for sale?"

"Yes, it is", he said.

"Can you tell me where I can see it?" I asked.

"Yes, I live at 34 Mowbray Blvd., in Vaucluse. It's a yellow house and the
car's parked right out in front."

"What's your name?" I asked

"My name is Don Hansen" he said.

"When's a good time to catch you, Don?"

"I'm home every evening after five."

"Listen, Don, can I tell you something?"

"Yes,"

"Don, you're an asshole!"

Then I hung up, and added his number to my speed dial, too.

Now, when I had a problem, I had two assholes to call.

Then I came up with an idea. I called Asshole #1. "Hello." You're an
asshole!
(But I didn't hang up.)

"Are you still there," he asked. "Yeah," I said.
"Stop calling me," he screamed.
"Make me," I said.
"Who are you," he asked.
"My name is Don Hansen."
"Yeah? Where do you live?"
"Asshole, I live at 34 Mowbray Blvd., Vaucluse, a yellow house, with my
black Beamer parked in front."
He said, "I'm coming over right now, Don. And you had better start
saying your prayers."
I said, "Yeah, like I'm really scared, asshole," and hung up.

Then I called Asshole #2.
Hello, he said.
"Hello, asshole," I said.
He yelled, "If I ever find out who you are."
"You'll what," I said.
"I'll kick your ass," he exclaimed.
I answered, "Well, asshole, here's your chance. I'm coming over right now."

Then I hung up and immediately called the police, saying that I lived at
34 Mowbray Blvd., Vaucluse, and that I was on my way over there to kill
my gay lover.

Then I called Channel 9 News about the gang war going down
in Mowbray Blvd., Vaucluse.

I quickly got into my car and headed over to Mowbray. I got there just
in time to watch two assholes beating the crap out of each other in
front of six cop cars, an overhead police helicopter and a news crew.
NOW I feel much better.

Anger management really works.

I was all alone at 10am on Sunday morning (Andy's off again on one of his many business trips), waiting to meet up with Jenny to go to the Bridal Bazaar at the Del Mar fairgrounds when I decided to see what cartoons were playing. I ended up instead watching the Top 20 Country countdown and couldn't help but tear up when I saw this video.

Already completely in love with this somewhat depressing song, and was really happy to get a chance to see the video. Chalk it up to the "many issues" that Andy swears that I have... but tears were brimming by the beginning of the video. Such a touching song! Anyway, if anything... the lead singer of Emerson Drive is HOT.  *sigh* and my obsession with white guys continue...  or at least ONE white guy.

And some eye candy for the guys...

I absolutely ADORE Carrie Underwood. She's got a great voice and she's hot too! I'm completely in love with the black top she has on in this video.

No country music jokes okay?!
