Guilty Pleasures ~ Summer 2012

Aside from working ALL THE TIME right now... I am spending my days late-nights watching re-runs of old shows ... I have closed every night for the last 2 weeks due to training people. With several new people & me going back down to one day/week when school starts back, it has been CrAzY! I usually get off work around midnight & sleep till noon everyday. My life has been quite vampire like... ;)

We have been staying up super late watching netflix. We have been watching re-runs Grey's Anatomy & Bones all day everyday...

I also have been watching...

I used to love this show!

Every Wednesday night, Mom and I would watch this & I would

swoon over Pacey..

I love him... he was always my favorite.

 Dawson is so whiney & needy... Gah!

Quote from today's favorite episode

Picture Pacey & Jen stuck on a boat during a horrible storm.

Pacey : If it gets any worse, they'll send someone for us.

Jen : We have no radio and we're heading for a cove that you don't know the name of. Who the hell is gonna find us there?"

Pacey : Dawson! Dawson will know!

*swoon*

Other than watching old re-runs... abcfamily is seriously rocking my world these days. I love me some PLL!

I watch this EVERY week on my ipad.

We cut out cable to save money for moving, the Wedding, & the honeymoon

Truthfully, we havent missed cable. We have Hulu & Netflix and Abc has *FREE* that show current shows.

Few things I would say to the PLL:

1. Stop letting people walk out of a room without finishing a damn conversation. So much could be solved this way!

2. Stay away from shady places that yall always get caught in and make yall look guilty.

3. Screw A. Tell anyone & everyone about these threats including those shady ass cops.

4. Tell your parents the truth about all this A crap so they will stop thinking yall are guilty of something all the time.

5. Stop going places alone. Geez.

13-year-old bitch fest over. :D


abcfamily's newest show.... I think Im liking it.

Idk about the plot yet... but I love this chick.

SHE is funny, in that Lorelai Gilmore kinda way.

Time will tell on this one.

The night before..

...life goes on.

So... I start classes tomorrow. And I am FREAKING OUT! I dont know what to do, or think, or say, or wear. Well.. ok.. I know what to wear. My WHITES :) My scrubs. My student nursing uniform. Feels so weird to say that. But I am stressing that the pants are too long causing them to bulge on the end, even though they dont touch the floor which is a requirement. I think my top is too small, and that my shoes are too loud. Remember that lime green stripe??

All in all... Im pretty excited.

Jess starts her internship tomorrow & she is also FREAKING OUT!! Although, she has been more vocal about being nervous than I have... which is odd, because she is always so calm and collected. I tend to have a melt down right before bed. & then continue to worry myself to sleep... only to wake up in the morning without a care in the world. Sigh.



Mom came down this weekend to hang out & help me get organized. I want the apartment to be in damn near perfect condition. See... Jess doesnt like to clean. And things that need to be done around the house just dont seem to jump out at Jess. No matter how many baskets of clothes are piled up on the floor or how many dishes are running out of the sink.. she doesnt see it. So.. since the nursing school teachers keep saying our lives will change and our "significant others" will have to pick up all the slack... I want to make sure the apartment is ready for Jess to take over :)

So mom helped us organize our office/craft room/place to store everything and throw away most of the junk we have been moving from one apartment to the next. We organized all of our old tshirts into totes for our tshirt quilts :) We hung up some decor that I needed her help with. We had fun making some art decor we saw on Pinterest. I cant even tell you how many times one of us says "Did you see this on Pinterest?" "I wanna make this, I saw it on Pinterest" So we did this...

 

I also finished a non-Pinterest inspired project from like a year ago...



After Mom left, I cleaned out & re-organized the kitchen cabinets. My nerves must be in my subconscious and I have just been super productive. Jess made us a yummy dinner inspired by a recipe on.. wait .. for .. it... Pinterest. :)




One last thing, this weekend we watch a lot of Lizard Lick Towing. Omg its hilarious. Kinda dumb, but so funny. Definitely helped calm the nerves. Nothing like what I normally watch...



Can't wait to see what life is like after tomorrow. Well.. maybe?

Thanksgiving & Black Friday

I love the holidays. And I love being home at my mom's. We were off 3 days from work and spent it all at moms. Love that!

This year, Black Friday shopping started at 10pm. I was really excited about this because I hate getting up early. Although, I didnt realize it would interfere with my nap after Thanksgiving dinner. We got to Walmart around 530pm. We were on a mission to get the new blue Wii. We already have a Wii in our bedroom that we use mostly to stream Netflix. But we needed Netflix in the living room as well. So instead of buying a streamer for $60-$80m, we decided to just buy the new Wii. We also wanted some of the $20 600 threadcount sheets, which Jess got trampled over. But after elbowing her way back up.. she got our sheets! ;) Some guy tried to take them out of her hands by reaching over her and she BIT HIM! haha kinda gross but hey dont put your hands in someones face just because you are bigger than she is! Asshole. Mom wanted the 19" tv for $100 to go in the guest room (mostly for us :) ) so she stood in line in the freezer section for 7 hours to get one! She was number 1! But turns out they had plently and the next morning they still had over 100. She was pissed. Ha Ha.

We got great deals on dvds, and Wii games. So thats always a plus for me. (seriously addicted to dvds.)

DVDS- Pretty Little Liars (dont hate!), The Vampire Diaries 1 & 2 (2 sets for gifts), Planet Earth, The Big Bang Theory Season 4. $10 each!

While we were eating our dinner, I told my brother all about my nursing expenses and how much I had been spending on vaccines and physicals etc. When dinner was over, and he was leaving, he handed me $100 and told me to get my shoes ($60) and stethescope or whatever. I was super excited, hugged him and told him I loved him :) Even though, he gave me the money for shoes, I also had $115 nursing kit to buy to I put the money up for that instead. He called mom later to tell her to make sure I didnt spend it on Black Friday shopping. She informed him I already put it aside for my nursing kit because it cost more. Well he said for me to buy both and he was send me more money in the next week. YAY! I never ask him for money. I try to do it on my own, because I know if I ever get into a bind he will be there for me. Im super excited he is helping me out.. one less thing I have to worry about. :)

We looove reality tv. We love the shows about big families.. good thing too, because these days almost every show is about multiples and cupcakes! :) That being said, we have a new favorite.

We love this new show Sister Wives. Im very fascinated by polygamy. Not the controlling, marrying child brides kind, but the ones like this show features. I like the way they function as a whole family, treating everyone like their own. What I really like about this family is 2 of the wives wanted plural marriage even without him. It wasnt something they settled for just to be with him. They wanted sister wives as much as they wanted him. One of them even jokes that at times in her life she may have wanted the sister wives more. haha.
This show seemed to raise alot of concern for other viewers as they didnt see it as a moral or suitable show to be aired on TL.C. Oddly enough TL.C stands for the learning channel. So I would think we are supposed to learn from this show. It may not be the way most people want to raise their children or even marry into. But whether or not you like it, it is what it is. The fact is, some people do live like this and function day to day. People always judge what they dont understand. I dont judge this kind of thing, because its not my place to judge. They are living their lives and raising children to believe in themselves and think for themselves. The way they live isnt hurting anyone, and its not up to anyone to say whether its right or wrong. Anyways, I like the show alot. Christine is my favorite, I think. Shes the domestic one that takes care of the house and kids. I like that :)
We like the show, although we dont believe in it for ourselves. We are strictly monogamous.
