Things I Just Don’t Get 2

I wrote my first “Things I Just Don’t Get” list over a year ago. And guess what? There are NEW things that I just don’t get!

  • Peplum – Why? Why do you wan’t something that flares out at your waist?
  • Hashtag overuse – Please stop Instagramming/tweeting things with #all #of #the #hashtags. #Also #see #hashtag. #And #some #more #hashtags. #Did #you #forget #a #hashtag? Also – if you’re only updating Facebook and no other social media channel – cease hashtag use. It’s not transferable.
  • Dr. Who – whenever I see pictures of that phone booth, I just think of Harry Potter or the Phantom Tollbooth (no idea why on that second one.)
  • Animal print skinny jeans – I’m sorry I just can’t get into this. Also see: floral skinny jeans. I know I’m not fashionable, but whatever.
  • Mullet skirts/dresses – I know there is an official name for these, but I just don’t get it.
  • Coconut Oil – put it on your face! put it in your food! Use it as deodorant (I saw that last one on Pinterest today I swear.)
  • The song “Next to Me” by Emeli Sande - OMG I HATE THIS SONG. I don’t know why but it reminds me of “Colors of the Wind” from Pocohontas. Blech. I change the radio immediately when this comes on.

What things don’t you get?

So What! Wednesday

Taking a page from my fellow blogging mama Shannon, I’ve got a few things I’m saying “So what!” to:

So what if…

  • I haven’t blogged, I mean really blogged in forever.
  • I still need to write about my Seattle trip, and my Nintendo Wii U party, and Sadie’s 1st birthday party.
  • It’s raining today. I got a haircut last night and it looks fabulous. :)
  • All I had for dinner last night was a bag of popcorn on the train home. And then some Funyuns when I finally made it home.
  • The day after Sadie’s party I did absolutely nothing. Barely got off the couch. And it was beautiful outside. Oh well. I needed to recuperate!
  • I had almost as much dessert as I did lunch at my work event today.
  • I pass out on the couch almost every night. I should just go to bed earlier, but I always think I can stay up!
  • Sadie’s birthday presents are still sitting in the den from where we unwrapped them. She’s played with some stuff!
  • I haven’t even begun to think about thank you cards yet.

What are you saying SO WHAT to this week?

My Dearest Sadie, You are now 1 years old. A bonafide toddler! I can't believe my eyes as I watch you walk/run/stumble around the house. Nothing is safe anymore! You are also the most delicious little girl on the face of the planet. Weight/Length- In … Click here to read the full post →

I am now the parent of a one-year-old

Also titled under, "How the hell did this happen?" Yes, Sadie Faye turned 1 on Saturday. There is no post yet and also no 12 month photos because a) I'm a slacker blogger, as we all know, and b) we were at a wedding the night of her birthday, so I have a … Click here to read the full post →

Just Keep Swimming, Just Keep Swimming, Just Keep Swimming, Swimming, Swimming…

It would be awesome if I could get my sh*t together. Wait up, why the asterisk? Fuck it. SHIT. I feel better. But seriously, I feel like I'm swimming and my neck is barely above water. (Just keep swimming, just keep swimming!!) It's a vicious cycle of … Click here to read the full post →

Dear Sadie, On March 27th you hit the 11 month mark, and the countdown to your birthday has officially begun. Whenever someone comments that they can't believe you're turning one already, I want to stick my fingers in my ears and go "LALALAALALALALA CAN'T … Click here to read the full post →
