Oh how Pinteresting!

Oh hello again!

It's Wednesday people, that means we are half way through the week.

Hooolllaa!

I'm linking up with Michelle for oh how pinteresting Wednesday since I haven't done it in awhile and have found some precious pins lately.


Spring: hurry so I can wear this.


Love the lace.
 I want to try this look: asap.

loving statement pieces lately.

My pins are minimal this week because I have been trying to stay off pinterest lately.
By "staying off" I mean only spending 3 hours on it instead of 6.

What are some of your favorite pins this week?

Don't forget to link up with Michelle! Such a fun link up!

Happy hump day!

The time I got pissed on by a golden retriever & protein bars.

Happy Monday.
How was your weekend? What all did you do?

I noticed I lost my first follower today..
Ouchies.

There is a lot going on with my blog title today, don't ya think.
Let's get started.

So, my hair for the past year and a half or so has been the same color. Dirty blonde with some lighter highlights. The dirty blonde being my natural color was gasp! starting to come in greyish/ashy.
No no, this could not be happening. 
Keeping the same hair color for me is an accomplishment.
So, being this color was getting old.

...I strolled into work over the weekend and let a stylist do this..

ps. why is my face so chubby?



After revealing my hair color to a few girls I work with one said this to me..

"it kinda looks like a golden retriever pissed on your head..."

awesome.

I'm still getting used to it and I know it will fade but for now my hair is loud and proud.

Tonight I am going to make a batch of these bad boys..
Peanut Butter/Chocolate Protein Bars.


I've made them before {via pinterest} and want to try some different things.
I will post a recipe & review sometime this week.
I'm sure you will all be dying to have it.

Have a fantastic day.

My Religion & Beliefs: Sex and the city.

Hello my little bloggies!

It really feels like ages since I blogged last! 
I'm not a fan of this feeling.

Recently, my Dad downloaded the HBOgo app onto his iPad and it has done nothing but wonders for my life! It has all seasons of every great show people have ever invented: 
Entourage
The Sopranos
Boardwalk Empire
Derek Jeter's 3K {ok, not a show but an amazing documentary! Do yourself a favor and watch it if you love sports & derek jeter}

Last but not least:
Sex and the city.

Now, I know my title states religion and beliefs and that is what SATC is for me.
{No, this is really not what I consider my religion..well, maybe a little}

All six seasons are on this app! 
ALL SIX SEASONS people!

So, naturally my spare time has been devoted to this show and rewatching from the beginning! I can't help but fall in love with the show everytime I watch it.
I mean, Carrie & Big..hello!
But on a serious joking side this show really should be considered a religion and belief system for the following reasons:
1. It is about single women standing up for their beliefs in love, friendship, work, and obviously fashion.
2. They drink cosmos like they are water.
3. Carries wardrobe all 6 seasons: enough said.
4. Carries hair all 6 seasons.
5. Makes you feel that no matter what there is a Mr. Big for anyone!
6. Amazing quotes.

Ok, so those really aren't hard facts on why this show is so wonderful.
But, I consider all six seasons a bible in someway and sometimes a good sex and the city quote just really brightens my mood. 
It's such a classic tv show! 

I know this is a riveting post today {what do ya want from me!}
But, I just love me Carrie, Miranda, Samantha & Charlotte.

Have a fabulous day

A Warm Welcome!

Hellooo everybody!

It's Thursday and I've been on hold for appox. 13 minutes with Student Loan Services.
I've had my car towed to a mechanic shop
I have had two phone calls to set up job interviews.

Not. To. Shabby 
Minus the holding and getting car towed.

So, I suck as a friend and still have yet to post about Alicia's birthday extravaganza (botched that spelling) because well my camera cord was lost but don't worry it was found: in my car. 

So, that is just going to have to wait my friends! Check out her post today and it gives you all the highlights of such a wonderful drunken time celebration.

But don't you worry, I have fantastic news.
The bestie Gabby has started blogging again! 
yaaaaaaaaay.

She is sassy and comical {much like myself :)} and really is a gem!
She is blogging all about her move to Texas {still sad} and about her new journey and experiences.

So, all 59 of you {Oh so close to 60} go on over to Almost Texas and give this lovely lady some blog lovin. 
Pretty Please?
Her blog post about the moving process to Texas is pretty funny.
But, I'm slightly partial to her :)

Have a lovely Thursday everyone!

So, you're crazy?

So, today is Wednesday.
Cool..

Sorry that's all I got for an opener today.

I started off having a really good day yesterday {Tuesday} that went to straight shit and now I'm hoping today {Wednesday} will be much better.
Why am I telling you which day it is?
Well, because having Monday off has screwed me up and I have to keep reminding myself what day of the week it is.
sign of getting old.

I got an email from a reader of my blog the other day asking a very simple question that went a little something like this:
So, your blog says welcome to crazy town? Does that mean you are actually crazy?

I obviously laughed at first and then thought to myself, am I?
{I already knew the answer to this}

This kind person asked me why I chose this as my title, and then I started to think about it and why I did. 
Next thought was why had I never explained why I chose this as my title.

So, here you have my entertaining Wednesday post. 

I started blogging about a year ago and my life a year ago was just what my blog title states: crazy town.
I was going through changes in friends, learning how this whole thing called life  works.
I was in the middle of a back and fourth battle with insurance companies for my car wreck.
I was partying every single night. I mean every single night. It got to the point where by the time I walked into the bar the bartender had a drink waiting for me.
I failed a class.
I was blowing through all of my money and being stupid and immature. 
I would fight with my parents over the littlest things, and I never ever fight with my parents.

Don't get me wrong my life wasn't all sadness and darkness.
Really funny shit was happening to me to. 
You know the funny where all you do is laugh for hours until you cry.
I had the best of both worlds. 
I was single & ready to mingle.
I dated around, went on a few dates here and there and enjoyed it all.
Found out my best friend was moving to Texas. 


Crazy.

Typing it and maybe you evening reading it doesn't really sound all that crazy
But, for me it was.
For the first time I had zero control over how things were going.
It seemed like every time I would turn a corner a new adventure in life would pop up, and for the first time in my entire life I accepted each challenge. I may not have liked it, but I accepted it.
All 24 years of my life has consisted of the same people, same places, same habits, same everything.
I, for once, wasn't seeing the same faces, going to the same places, and not performing the same habits.
Guess crazy town made me taste a dose of medicine that I really wasn't ready to taste.
Welcome to crazy town might not be the best blog title but I enjoy it. 
It's a daily reminder of why I started blogging, why I chose to maybe take a different route in expressing myself. 

So, there you have it. Why my blog title is crazy town and what living a day in crazy town is like.
Phew. Shit just got personal. 

 I'm glad someone asked me what my blog title meant. It helped remind me of why I chose to label myself as crazy :)

Enjoy your day!

Love/Hate Relationship: Zumba Style.

Hello everyone!
How was everyone's long weekend?
Mine was delightful, thank you for asking.

I know you are all dying to know what I did!
Which is why I will tell you tomorrow in hopes I find my camera cord to download the pictures for it!
Whoops.

Moving on people..

Do ya'll have a love/hate relationship with thing(s)? I have a love/hate relationship with many things.
Like..
Chocolate {tastes oh so good but does nothing for my thighs!}
Shopping {Makes me feel oh so fab, but oh so broke}
Boys {No explanation needed}
The Cleveland Browns {Again, no explanation needed}

Ok, you get the point.
Let's talk about my strongest love/hate relationship..

dun..dun..dun..

ZUMBA.
{Your's truly did this dance last night and my legs were on fire after}

Why do I love it?
Because for 60 whole minutes I get to do nothing but pop, lock, and drop it and shake my money makaaa!
I get to jam with my homeboys Urrrsherrr {not to be confused with Usher}, David Guetta, Flo Rida.
You know, all of the greats.
I also love it because it really is a fantastic workout for days when you just don't really feel like working out. 
In a one hour Zumba class you can burn up to 650 calories!
650 calories to burn while just shakin' it?
Yes. Please.

Why do I hate it?
My entire body is throbbing today.
Not like an achey throb, oh no, a flat out my entire body is worked to the core.
My hips, abs, thighs, arms...all of it: ache.

That is what happens in a love/hate relationship! 
You love to hate it, and you hate to love it.

However, my sore little arse can't wait to go back on Wednesday!

What are you some of your love/hates? 

Have a fantastic one!
