On my death bed
Last night we picked out the bridesmaid dresses, went to dinner, and I threw up at the Diner.
I either have food poisoning, or some type of virus. (Real life Bridesmaid movie-only me)
Last night was one of the worst nights of my life.
I currently have a 102.8 fever.
And no health insurance.
I hate you 2011.

After work today, some of the girls and I are going to try on some bridesmaid dresses. Which reminds me… I hate trying on clothes. Taking things off, and then putting something else on is super annyoing.
Luckily, I gots my dress!

Big time changes ahead.
I didn’t want to say anything until it was official, because they kept extending me…but Friday is my last day at my summer job.
It’s true; I was only supposed to be working as a receptionist for the summer months until I found that perfect full time teaching position. Then my grandfather got cancer, my world collapsed, and I stayed at a job where I didn’t have to use my...

Christmas Crafting!
I decided to make my friends and family some homemade gifts this year. I already showed you the crayon monogram that I made for my cousin. (It turned out great!)
I also made a few sets of coasters. I know, exciting stuff!
They were really easy to make, but slightly time consuming. I didn’t take many photos of the process…but here is what you need.

I basically spent the entire 4 day weekend under my electric blanket.
My body is used to the temperature being a constant 99 degrees.
I am shivering at work.
This day is stupid.

Over the river and through the woods...
We’re on our way to the Jersey shore for Myles’ family Christmas. His grandmother is the cutest little lady on the planet, and the house will be bustling.
I think there are about 35 grandchildren, and 57 great grandchildren. (only a slight exaggeration)
We haven’t seen this side of the family since we got engaged, so bring on the questions!

Myles and I are NOT exchanging Christmas presents...
I ran out for a few last minute things, (a Christmas sweater for myself) and called Myles on my way home.
Liz: I got you a little present.
Myles: What is it?
Liz: Just a little Christmas treat.
Later at my house...
Myles: I went out and got you something.
Liz: You did? Something legit? Why?
Myles: Yes, I think you are really going to like it.
Liz: Ohh. That's awkward, I got only got you a gingerbread cookie.
PopPop: You got duped Myles. Might wanna hit the return aisle.

I was just filling out an address on an envelope for a co-worker. I wrote the street address, and then looked up at the paper, saw Chicago, and finished the zip code without looking.
Wait… how do I know the zip-code? Let me double check it.
No I had the wrong zip-code. I seriously wracked my brain for 5 minutes trying to figure out why I wrote that.
Then it hit me.

Gift Idea
It is probably too late to order this gift in time for Christmas, but I think it’s too cute to not share.
It’s a cross stitch iPhone case!
It’s a silicone case, with holes in the back to personalize your phone.
These are the designs on Amazon, but you could use your imagination/a pattern to create anything. They have a bunch of colors too!
The perfect gift for the crafty...

Dj Play My Song
Last night I was stuck in some terrible traffic. I thought about putting on some holiday tunes to pass the time, but quickly switched it up to the hardcore rap station. The song that started to play sounded like it could be my new jam. The lyrics…” I do, I do, I do, I do.” I thought ohhhh maybe we could play this at the wedding. Let me text my DJ/friend and ask him if he knows...

Sometimes when you want something nice, you just...
I have been dying for the Naked Palette, and I managed to buy it for less than the original cost…including body butter, and 14 free samples!
(I found out Myles went to 2 stores to try to buy me the 2nd version-which doesn’t come out until Feb. What a guy!)
This morning I was so excited to try it out that I managed to make myself look like an Atlatic City cocktail waitress. Oops!

Shocker!
Remember when these fools thought people were actually going to pay $35 to eat crappy food?
Could have told ya that was never going to happen.
I am going to respond with: Open Bar. Less Money. Done.

No Thank You!
Every Christmas the same things happens in my family gift exchange. I put lots of thought and effort into everyone’s gift, and in return I get something that I would have been thrilled with at the age of 10. Without fail.
Last year I got…
From my 22 and 19 year old cousins: Their response when I opened it “You used to love Eeyore.” Maybe once, for a week.

I have sleeping issues
Lately I haven’t been sleeping well. I spend every night half asleep, and my mind is racing. Last night at 3:00am I went downstairs, got a bottle of water, and tried to convince myself that I NEEDED to go into REM sleep. I wish I hadn’t.
I had a horrible nightmare.
I was in Myles’ room, and there was a bee’s nest on his floor. I told him to remove it and he casually said...

maryanne asked: I was so excited when I saw your Erin Condren post because I haven't seen anyone with the EC Wedding planner and was wondering if you could review it. There are NO reviews for it online! I have her Life Planner and love it, is the wedding planner worth it? I've been debating whether or not to get one and I just can't decide without knowing more about it.

I have really enjoyed reading everyone’s drunken stories.
That lead me to look at Facebook pictures from college. And, It’s not that I don’t have stories…it’s just that they can not be shared. You guys, I did some things. Things that we can never speak of again.
Let me just leave you with this photo.

Call me in 10 years...when you find the liquor
Before Thanksgiving I got a Facebook message from my highschool class president. It was the whole, “it’s been 5 years, we love each other, let’s have a reunion.”
The night was to include a full open bar, and dancing at a local hotel for $30.
I messaged back and forth with a few high school friends, thought about for a second and decided…

Oh NOW you want to be my friend
3 times in the past month I have had a company try to kiss up to me at the last second. Let me explain…
I take my time when making online purchases, searching for coupon codes and discounts. I usually go through the entire process of placing the order, and then if the final total is too much I back out.
This has resulted in 3 different companies realizing that I almost placed an order, but...
