Please throw some at me. NOW. Thanks. So, last Wednesday I decided I was going to jump on the "fit/diet/exercise/share your success with the whole world" train, a week later...what have I accomplished? NADA. (To be fair, I was out of the office at a hearing all day yesterday, or this post would have come then.) Seriously though, I have not worked out ONCE the past week and a half, can we say PATHETIC! I. HAVE. THE. TIME. I.AM. LAZY. Geesssh. I will never ever in my life be a morning person, try as I might...I think I have come to accept this that I won't ever be able to wake up and workout in the morning. I like sleep way too much. I get PLENTY of sleep these days, but it doesn't matter how early I go to bed I cannot ever seem to jerk my big behind out of bed till the very last minute. I mean really? It's actually quite ridiculous. Anyways, I digress....point being most afternoons I have my gym bag packed and I am ready to go but something always seems

Oh that Don Draper!

I started watching Mad Men last night, been meaning to for a while...sad I waited so long! LOVE LOVE the clothing, the hair and the glamour! I also LOVE how curvy the women are and the boys still drool over them. But, my oh my...that Don Draper is quite the man whore now isn't he? He's quite nice to look at though...I'm only two shows in so I don't know for 100% yet if I will be hooked seeing as how I actually have to make sure I continue to order them from Netflix, but for now I think it looks pretty dang good! Do you all watch? Throughout law school I really only kept up with a few shows because of a lack of time. But, now heavens~ I LOVE TV...even though we aren't home a ton because we are such popular/busy/socialite type people (ha, you can laugh now) due to DVR I am able to watch much more TV! As for now we watch: Brothers and Sisters, Grey's, Private Practice, 24, The Good Wife, most of the time House, a LARGE amount of Bravo, HGTV and ESPN. What

Manic Monday

Why must weekends FLY by?? I had a wonderful weekend, I just hate to see it go. Friday night we ended up having a little get together, bunches of friends came over to cook out...we had a large time. Somehow I managed to only take ONE picture (gasp!) the whole night... But, I do LOVE this picture. This is me with three of my very best friends from high school...four of the famous "fab five." ha! (the fifth lives in ohio, and we rarely get to see her=(, hopefully she will move closer one day!) Seriously though, always have a great time when we all get together and Friday didn't let down. This was all of us outside beside the fire pit. So fun, can't wait to do it again. Saturday, I drugggg myself out of bed at 8:30...I headed up to Montreat, NC for a ladies night! My mom's best friend who is like my second mother was celebrating her 60th Birthday and we had quite a little mother/daughter PARTY! It rained for much of the trip...but we did enjoy a nice lunch in

Kenny can tell ya how i feel....

"We went out last night Like we swore we wouldn't do Drank too much beer last night A lot more than we wanted to" Not so much in a blogging mood right now, a little sleepy. Now gotta gear up for a little cook out at our house tonight...need my second wind ASAP. Off to Montreat, NC tomorrow for a lovely ladies weekend. Hope you all have a good one.

Nothing to take it back to. Nada.

So, I was thinking about doing a "take it back thursday" post...I was looking thru old pictures (probably the main reason i do a take it back thursday, love to look and reminisce) and wondering "what the hell did I do this time last year??" Well, duh...I was in SOCIAL HELL, studying for the SC BAR examination. So, yeah...not so much to report on that end. My outings were confined to the library and my "study closet" in my house...thank GOD that is over. So, I'll just ramble today instead...okay? Good. John Edwards= BIG LYING CHEATIN NO GOOD SON OF A BITCH. HAITI. Please keep donating. I know not everyone can do a lot (myself) but every little bit helps...

I don't wanna be a copy cat BUT...

I think I am! I have seen so many blogs that do a "weigh in" Wednesday feature and I am stealing the idea! So sue me. I NEED it, BAD. My weight has always fluctuated...but when I got married in June 2009, I had lost some weight and felt pretty good about my body. Well fast forward to now...and yeah, not so much. I have literally gained 9 pounds since my wedding. UGH! That doesn't sound like a lot, but when you are 5'1'' it is A LOT! Every freakin pound shows when you are so short. Anyways, I got to thinking about it and I think/pray/hope this will help me get back on the fitness train. I need y'all to judge me...seriously. Judge away. I did Weight Watchers for real one time where you go and weigh in and it was so good for me because I would literally be embarrassed if I didn't lose weight. Those old bitches in there would judge me! AND IT HELPED. SO next Wednesday will be my first official weigh in report, wish me luck! Hope everyone has a

My night with the golden globes...or ehhh twitter?

As much as I LOVE LOVE seeing all the fashion and flirting that comes with awards shows, I would rather just see pictures the next day via us weekly, etc. than watch an entire awards show. I do enjoy the ones where there are performances, but otherwise, I get a little bored. So, instead I relied on twitter to keep up with the globes last night, how fun! We got back from Beaufort late last night and the ONLY show that hubs is obsessed with is 24. Well, the season premier was last night, so we watched that, and when I mean watched...I mean we watched THREE hours of 24. Somehow, we missed the last episode of last season, so we had to watch that as well. Of course, we watched this all on dvr, so we could skip thru commercials...but still, THREE hours? I do LOVE Jack Bauer though, this show is intense and it always keep me glued to the tv. Last night, we had to take a couple of "pauses" so I could catch up with the globes. It was so funny b/c I felt like I was almost watc

Why do I even look...

So, I have MORE than enough clothes right now, seriously...I can barely even wear it all. I told myself that I didn't need any more until I started getting spring clothes (unless I was buying something for a special event of course). And then...I go on Anthro's website and spot this delicious looking cardigan...something about it just looks so yummy to me! Sigh...if I were to buy the cardigan with the shirt underneath (b/c obvi that is what makes the cardigan so scrumptious) and the belt it would only be $250 ...ha! Might just continue to look...(or NOT look is really what I need to be doing). Anyways, we are off to our family's house in Beaufort, SC this weekend! I am so excited b/c the weather has finally calmed down a bit around these parts (65 and sunny today!) Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.

Well that didn't take long.

So... I only started blogging a few weeks ago and I told NO ONE! The only people who knew who know me in real life are my former roomies ChatTeaKathy and Kate! Only because they got me addicted to blogging. Anyways, some of my best friends have already found it...probably via twitter and me commenting to other bloggers, etc. I don't really care by any means, this whole thing is still just new to me and I am still trying to "find my way" in the blog world I guess. Anyways, it made me think of what direction I want my blog to go in. I fall in love with blogs for countless reasons...whether they are funny, give good fashion advice, give good book/vacation/product reviews (and sometimes all three!), are political, etc. I wish so bad I could be a "funny" blogger...but umm, think you need to actually be funny for that to happen, right? And yeah, I'm not funny. And...as much as I love fashion, I love it when I see what someone else's creative mind

Eat. Pray. Love.

Will you be my avatar?

Okay, so I have to admit THIS MOVIE IS PRETTY BAD ASS. When the previews first started, I had NO interest in seeing it at all. I typically don't enjoy "those" types of movies and honestly thought it looked DUMB. Hubs wanted to go see it so we did and even went to the 3d version, and it was awesome! You need to go see it in the theatre to make it worth it. The story isn't at all what I thought it was going to be, it is actually very good! I'm not going to say it is the best movie ever, but seeing it in 3d with all of the amazing special effects is WELL worth it. It was a little weird seeing these two things kiss.... We had a pretty low key weekend and it was wonderful! Much needed after the past few months...hope you all had a wonderful weekend!

Time to give up the Starbucks....

AND ACTUALLY EAT SOMETHING. I kid, sorta. We all LOVE her, but holy hell...I think it's high time that she eat a sandwich along with her million starbucks drinks a day. Let's face it though...I would be HER any freakin day given the chance.

awards, yo!!

My FIRST AWARDS!!! My former fabulous roomie chatteakathy gave me my first award....so excited! Okay, so I am supposed to list 10 facts about myself, here goes: 1. Hubs and I rescued a dog in September...I was NOT a dog person before and now I love my little Milly. Milly was stranded on the side of the river and was only about 6 weeks old. 2. I tore my ACL in high school, cheerleading! I dare you to tell me it's not a sport. 3. I grew up on the lake and LOVE to water ski 4. I regret not studying abroad in college. 5. I would go back and live college over in a heartbeat! 6. I have a little OCD in me. 7. I drink atleast three diet cokes per day. 8. I have psoriasis on my elbows and it really bothers me. 9. I CANNOT STAND the Clemson Tigers. 10. I wish I would have moved to Charleston right after college. My second award came from the always sweet Short Southern Momma ! Thanks girls!!!

This is the one I was given: FRUITS VEGETABLES LEAN PROTEIN VERY LEAN PROTEIN STARCHES Apple (small) Green Beans Ground sirloin (1x) Boneless skinless chicken breast Low Cal Bread (45 calories or less) Cantaloupe (1/2) Greens Wings

Manic Monday

Bitch finally got me. And....i am sick. ugh. Cold and some bronchitis goin on....sucky. I have been fighting getting sick for a few weeks...but I would keep pumping my body with Airborne/sudafed/nasal spray and keep it at bay. Well, it doesn't seem to be working anymore. Hopefully, I will be going home at lunch and taking a half day. I would just like to crawl in bed and cover my face and sleep. My whole body hurts so bad. =( (yes, you can feel sorry for me a little right?...I promise I won't bitch about this anymore, starting.... now. ) Everyone have a great day! Hopefully I will be here in an hour....
