Say What?

Seedless Watermelon - May contain seeds.  Say What?

Did you get your hair cut?

No.  I just straightened it and chopped my bangs. :)

My hair dryer (from high school) died on me a couple weeks ago so I've been taking showers at night and putting my wild mane of hair up or trying to work with the curls.  Bryce decided I should have a hair dryer - not because my hair wasn't cute - but because I was so upset when it broke.  We bought one yesterday and it is my favorite thing for now. It's lighter, it's ionic and it's ceramic and it dries faster, and makes my hair soft and beautiful.  Thank you Revlon.

I was so inspired by the hair dryer that I decided I'd go sleek today with straight hair (again, something I haven't done for weeks) and decided on top of that, that I would chop my bangs again.  My sister cut in some bangs last November, I trimmed them once and then let them grow out.  I think I'll keep them for a while again. I love the drama from them and they make me feel sassy.  :)

I feel like it's hard to get a picture where I look like I do in real life.  Maybe I just have a false sense of what I look like and I think I'm hot and what I see in pictures is really what everyone else sees - some girl that's cute, but looks kinda like a little kid...  anyway, here's some pictures.

Anybody?

Anybody want to me make me some of these?

I think I have everything but the beads for it already, but after today I just don't feel like it.

This embarrasment was totally worth it.

I alway take pictures with my phone to remember things or keep inspiration nearby.

While at Super Target we wandered by their art and there were some really neat line drawings but they were on laquered wood (painted black) so it appeared framed, but it wasn't.  I really liked the drawings but would have HAD to have them if they were prints and in real frames.  So, what do I do? 

I embarrassed Bryce by pulling out the phone and flipping the picture to the back to capture the artist information.  This time, the embarrassment was totally worth it Bryce. 
I've added these to my wish list:

I also saved these for future inspiration:



I don't want this for my wall.  I always thought it would be neat to do a kid's room with telephone wires and poles shilouette style and have birds sitting on the wires.  This is kind of what I'm talking about.



I want to do an ink line drawing of a girl, but I haven't figured out what she'll be doing.  I want to put it with line drawings I already have from Matisse and Picaso.

this i have

this is really similar to the Matisse one I have.

Truett's Diner/Chick-fil-A

We partied in McDonough today - threw a football for15% off at Home Depot, had to stop at Best Buy and hit the Super Target for curtains and also came home with Dr. Pepper (on an incredible sale) and this console for our sitting room.

For lunch before heading home we spotted this and figured we check it out. 

I think it's so neat and wanted to share it with everyone.  Inside there's a trolly that runs around the top of the room and there are pictures from different cities in the US and there's a Market Street trolly car that you can eat in too. 

I embarrased Bryce by taking these so I have to post them now...they're not even good pictures.  And don't really show the cool aspect of it all. 

Sorry for the embarrassment, Bryce.  It was so not worth it.

Parisian Cafe



The sketches are in Bryce's office



We had some prints from our trip to Paris framed and I had to hang them up. 

I decided now was the time to do some curtains in the kitchen, so I went through some fabric from my sewing queen grandma and found this fun yellow stripe material -which is the same except for color - as the valance in the adjacent TV room.

long?

short?

I sewed them this afternoon and Bryce helped me hang them.  I'm glad they're up and done.  Now I just need to decide what to do for the length ofthe curtains...or do an actual cafe curtain across the window... You tell me.

Seriously? Say What?

See anything out of place?

You drank 2 thirds of this coca-cola.  I'm glad to see it didn't take the whole bottle to quench your thirst.  Added Bonus:  Since you didn't drink it all you don't need to pay for it!

Dragon Fruit

Bryce buys these every once in a while from the Super H Mart by his work. Asian food and imported foreign things.  He told me he found the best way to eat it: cut it in quarters and then peel the skin back.  He says, "like a banana."  I think more like an orange. :)  Textures is kind of like a pear or kiwi - it has the little seed textures in it so I go more with the Kiwi.  If you get one that's sweet they're pretty good - but otherwise just kind of bland... 

But they look really cool!

One Reason Georgia Schools Lose their Accreditation

I posted previously about some Jo-ja spelling at the local dump.  Well of course, we found some more.  Here for your enjoyment...

This was discovered on the gas pump at the Big E-Z.

How many mistakes can you find?

This was in the cleaning closet where they thought if they labeled where everything goes than anyone could fit everything in there...It's always nice to know where the latters go.

Is it weird that spell check doesn't catch latters? 

 Is this a fancy spelling that I don't know and the joke's really on me?

Dear Burger King

Dear Burger King,

My lunch would've been ruined without today.  I didn't even have enough jam to cover half my slice of bread.  I would've gone hungry and been starving enough to sneak some Cheez-Itz from the girl at work when she's not looking.  :)  Without you I would've had a PB&J without the J.  There would've been no sweetness to tango with my rough, stick your mouth peanut butter and his sidekick wheat bread.  Where would I have been then?  Left with the two bites I could must of the Cinnamon Roll flavored yogurt, old wilting baby carrots, and my bag of Sun Chips. Without you there would've been no lunch.  I am forever grateful and will remember you in the future.  Are jam packets free?

Sincerely,
Always in a Jam

I have to post this or I will appear ungrateful - which I'm not.  My lunch has now been saved twice by fast food jam.  Thank you McDonald's (the first shining knight in armor) and Burger King .

I love my Peanut Butter.  I enjoya good PB & J sandwich on occassion at work but what do you do when you forget your jam on the counter at home?  Or when you do remember it, but don't have as much as you thought in the bottom of your jar?  You hope someone bought themselves some delicious, fattening breakfast at MickiD's or Burger King and they leave the left over jams laying around - because you know they're never going to use the 10 packets they put in your bag for one biscuit sandwich.
