Breakfast and Blogs


--this comic was just a bonus.

Josh made me pancakes this morning. What a sweet husband! I learned that if I asked him to make me breakfast I could catch another 15 minutes of sleep untroubled. The pancakes were pretty good too. It's been so long since I've actually eaten breakfast (sorry, Mom), that it inspired me to get writing at the early hour of just, um, 11:00 am. Note to self: start getting up earlier.

Right now we're getting ready to move out of first apartment and head to Nashville. We've taken all of our pictures down off the wall, boxed up our books, and we said goodbye to church friends. I had a job interview Monday, so if all goes well I should be set to climb the corporate ladder starting June 16. and speaking of June 16, our first anniversary is coming up! Josh and I have been married almost a year. Also speaking of June 16, I got our wedding pictures finally. I won't post them all online, because that would take away my fun of getting to show them to you in an album, but I'll give you a little taste to whet your apetite, and on that note, I'll leave you.

What's Happening?

I wanted to start a blog again so I could get back into writing, but I didn't think it through completely, because I now need to come up with something to write about. Josh told me to "just be my normal, funny self." No pressure there. But anyhoo, here's a look into the fabulous life of...me.

On TV:
I have two new guilty pleasures.
1. Dancing with the Stars. Everytime I watch it it makes me want to put on a skimpy costume (I think some of my lingerie would probably suffice) and leap and twirl around our apartment. The only drawback to the show is the part where people get kicked off. Why can't they just all be winners?
2. The Bachelor. I turned on the season premiere out of curiosity, and then I got hooked. My favorite moment so far? On last Monday's episode, Matt sent Amanda packing, and right before she left he tried to feed her some crap about how he really meant everything he told her, and she said "well you couldn't have meant it or I wouldn't be sitting here." Then, she told Matt (who was already bright red with embarassment) that he was a d*%$#! b@^. It was priceless!
(His response? He said "well, I didn't feel it as much with you as I did with the other girls." Yeah, that's right, 'fess up, Liar.)

In the DVD player:
Life's been pretty stressful, what with the job hunt still in full swing, and the upcoming move to Nashville, so if I sit down to watch a movie, it had better make me laugh or feel good. High on my list of favorites right now are 27 Dresses and Enchanted. 27 Dresses makes me want to get married all over again (but preferably on the beach...to James Marsden), and Enchanted makes me want to have little girls (or, as Josh puts it, "living dolls that you can dress up and buy stuff for").

In my purse:
Most people put books on their nightstand, but I like to have a nice juicy mass market paperback in my purse. For eight dollars I can guarantee I will never get bored on the go. I just finished My Best Friend's Girl which was pretty cute (for a $6 book), but it took me 150 pages before I realized the main character was African-American. It mentioned her corn rows early on, but did I get the clue? No, the picture in my mind looked something like this:

Well, that's all folks! I'll catch you on the flip side the next time I have nothing better to say.
