I'm back!

Sorry for my week long hiatus, sometimes school just kicks me in the pants! Believe me, you all would have been bored to death if I posted pictures from this week. They would all be of me looking like a hot mess pouring over finance books and excel spreadsheets. I'm making up for being a bad blogger though with a bunch of pictures from what I did last night!

There was a drag show at one of the clubs in T-town last night benefiting AIDS and my friend Whitney's hairstylist was going to be in the show so Whitney rounded up some of the girls to get glammed up and boogie the night away.

We started out the night by putting on fake eyelashes, super high heals, bright red lipstick, and big hair! Once we hit the club we spent the night throwing dollar bills at some fabulous ladies lip syncing to everything from Rhianna to Reba to Adele. It was fabulous! Don't believe me? Take a look for yourself!


 She was my favorite!!! Her ponytail was out of control!

 This is our new friend, Casey. He was adorable and an excellent dancer!

What a fun night. Happy Sunday everyone!

Web Goodies

I have a very busy week this week (I kind of neglected my school duties over spring break), so I'm not expecting anything too exciting to talk pictures of. I thought I would entertain you all with some pictures from funny websites. Enjoy!


whenparentstext.com is one of my new favorite websites! My mom is a hilarious texter and all of the post remind me of her. My mom is obsessed with Reggie and cares way more about seeing him than me so this hamster post really made me laugh!

LOL Cats are a classic! My sister has the Itty Bitty Kitty Bible, which tells the more famous biblical stories though lol cats. It's pretty funny!

Awkward Family Photos is another classic! Everyone out there, PLEASE do not take maternity pictures involving any part of your naked belly. Especially if it involves a karate. 

Happy Tuesday Everyone!

Olympic Glory

While in Atlanta on Thursday, I went to the Centennial Olympic park and hunted down the bricks my parents got for me and Emmy during the 1996 Olympic games in Atlanta. If you know me, you know I LOVE the Olympics and I would give just about anything to be able to compete in them one day (I'm pretty sure though at 22 I've aged out of most sports. I'm thinking I'll try sailing. I heard a 65 year old competed in that once).

Anyway, unfortunately for my dreams I think this is as close as I'm going to get to leaving an Olympic legacy...

Fat Cat

For those of you who do not know Bernie, let me introduce him. Years ago after the tragic death of my family's first cat (she was the devil in cat form) my mom and I went to the humane society to pick out a new furry friend for the fam.

That week at the humane society, there had been an outbreak of worms in the cat room so all of the cats were in pretty bad shape. We wanted a kitten but there weren't any little kittens at the HS at the time so we were headed out the door when we spotted the most pathetic cat we'd ever seen. The fluffy orange kitty had no fur on his ears (ear mites), his eyes were gooped shut (conjunctivitis), and he smelled like a rotten egg (the bath they gave all of the cats to get rid of the worms). We felt so sorry for this poor little guy that we HAD to get him!

You'd never know from looking at him now that he was such an ugly mug when we got him because he is the most beautiful long haired orange beauty ever! Anyway, this has been a long post just for this one picture of my GIGANTIC cat!
I'll try to find a better picture of him to show off his beauty. This picture cracks me up though because he's so huge and my mom's face is really funny! 

"I like the sound of the puck when it hits the.....what do you call it....stick?"

This quote in the title of this post is from me at my very first hockey game. Clearly, I know nothing about hockey. On St. Patty's day I went to an Atlanta Thashers game with some of my MBA friends and my sista. Being from the south, I've always been pretty skeptical of hockey, especially after Sarah Palin, but I actually had a really great time! The game was fast paced, fun to watch and we even got to see a fight! I highly recommend a pro, minor and college game to anyone. Here are some snapshots of the festivities!
 I know it's hard to tell (I was trying to be descret), but this chicka was DECKED OUT in St. Patty's goodness. Her tights had shamrocks on them, her belt had greet shot glasses glued to it, the had on shamrock glasses, green hair dye, and a gigantic green bow! Way to get into the holiday!
 Unfortunately, there was no green beer at the game but they did have green lemonade!
 We had great seats! The game ended up going into OT and then a shootout and both goals in the shootout were scored on this net. Very exciting!
 Philips Arena was pretty impressive. These bird head things shot out fire from their mouths whenever something big happened.


It was a great trip with some fantastic friends!

Homecoming

After a long day of cleaning up the condo and then driving back to the 'Burn yesterday, I came home to this sweet face that I'd been missing all week!
He's special...

Also, it's St. Patty's Day! I am celebrating today by heading up to the ATL for my very first hockey game! Thirsty Thursday anyone? Don't mind if I do! (pictures to come!)

Sexy


This, my friends, is why my milkshake brings all the boys to the yard.

In other news, our beach trip is over (sad). Monday and Tuesday were spent soaking up the rays and the lovely miss Caitlyn drove over from Mobile on Tuesday for dinner. Sadly, I forgot to take pictures but we had a great time and ate some D to the E to the L-I-C-I-O-U-S cheese dip and shrimp and risotto at Cosmo's! I highly recommend check it out if you're in the Gulf Shores/Orange Beach area.
