That's what she said!

so last night the mister and i tune into BEST FRIENDS FOREVER, that new show on NBC. 

source

 ok, honestly, we didn't really "tune in", we more accurately stumbled in; we forget when shows are on.  i usually set the dvr because we're always like "oh, dang, did we miss MODERN FAMILY again?" and we're usually saying this on friday when everyone else knows it's on wednesday.  ok, back to my BEST FRIENDS FOREVER story - angela over at pickles on pizza blogged about this show the other day and mentioned they know Lennon (the redhead on the right and yes, that is her 1st name).  so, to make a short story longer... i just assumed she would be watching last night along with me.  whenever they said something funny, i'd txt it to her.  here's a little transcript:

me: 

• "U can't feed a man that much pulled pork and deny him his own bathroom!"
• "i also feel for my anus!"
• "i'm not goa eat loose meat from your back pocket!"

oh, we are just cracking up over this show because the good Lord knows i love me some bathroom humor!  

this is what i get back from angela:

• "Lol"

  not even an all caps LOL but i figure she is too into the show and doesn't have time to cap them all.

then i type :

• "Haha, we r loving this show!"

and she responds with:

• "Oh are you watching my friends show? We are tivo.

well, now the mister and i are in hysterics because i realize she has NO idea why i am feeling for my anus! so i type

• "OMG WE R LAUGHING SOOOOOOO HARD over the fact u hve no idea why i said wht i did!!!!!"

then i have to throw in another 

• "i feel for my anus"

 and angela types back

• "So confused.... I totally thought you ate those tiny sandwiches for dinner" 

(if you've been reading a while, you know those little "porkies" from logans can do a real # on me...enough said!).  i don't know if this is as funny to you, but it was killing us last night!  don't you just love a good belly laugh?  if you want, head over to angela's blog to get her take on the conversation!

pickles on pizza

so did you watch this show (BFF)? what did you think?

now i'm off to costco to get darlings school pictures printed, they are sooooo cute this time!  well, except for the raggity, trashy hand tattoo i sent her to school with! grrrr, i have to check that girl with a fine tooth comb before she heads out the door!  happy friday!!

10 Random Things Friday...

1. Ok, this CRACKS ME UP! How cute is this??  I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this!!!

Go get yourself one at this shop on etsy: icehousecrafts  She has all kinds of other signs too-you know, just in case you haven't found Jesus, don't love your vacuum, didn't give at the office, or don't have kids selling crap!

2. I have a problem... I'm in love with a Porkie.  

I usually don't order food with embarrassing names, for example:

The Cinnamini at Burger King

The BIG Wally at Penguin Point

The Porkie from Logan's

What self respecting woman can say "I'd like the BIG Wally"?... I  mean, not a nice girl like me anyway!

(I was going to take a picture of one, but I couldn't get the camera fast enough)

This Porkie from Logan's has got me all turned upside down.   My love of the Porkie is something new to me... 1st up: the name, 2nd up: it's Pork, thirdly: the fact that I do NOT use love and food in the same sentence...ever!  You get 3 of these little sandwiches, 3 little rolls filled with porky goodness.  Pulled BBQ pork, a pickle slice and a plop of coleslaw on a sweet little roll... And to tell the whole story, I must add the fact that EVERY time I eat these I am an IBS-Mess... They tear me UP!  I won't let myself believe that a bit of pork, a pickle and some slaw can do this to me, I won't ALLOW it, so I will continue to oink, oink out on them every single time I go to Logan's!!

3. My hand looks giant in that picture, like the hands on the cover of the new Tina Fey book...

4. Ever wonder where mean blog comments go?  I mean, they certainly do NOT go to Heaven!  Well, I have the answer, I found out where they end up and you need to go there and get your LOLing on!
my favorite hate mail
Have you ever had mean comments on your blog?  I feel lucky that I never have (now, please don't leave me one just so I don't feel left out!), and am constantly amazed at how MEAN some people can be.
Why can't we all just get along??  The t-shirt is true: mean people suck!


5. When I mentioned to Darling this morning that some people were up at 4 AM to watch the Royal Wedding, she said:

"Why?  It's just 1 little thing that's happening in the World!"
I wrote it down so I can add it to her book that I keep.  That girl is NOT easy to impress.


6. Yesterday was the first time I've run in 2 weeks thanks to my rotten IT band that is giving me fits. 

I felt fine while I ran, but later was limping around like a 90 year old! You know the Bejamin Franklin quote "Wine is constant proof that God loves us and loves to see us happy"?  My friend Chris would like to add this quote "Pain is constant proof that God loves us and does not want us to exercise".  I'm a little worried about the 10K I am suppose to run in on May 14th...we'll see!


7. Mick has nothin' on me!

8.  Since getting this book at Christmas, the Mister has lost over 17 lbs and sleeps like a baby!!
Start keeping track of how much sugar you eat a day, and you'll be SHOCKED!!

Speaking of, I need to eat all the Easter candy quickly so it will just be GONE!!


9. I want my dining room table to look like this, JUST like this:

found here: all things thrifty

10.  I have such a heart for adoption.  I always knew I wanted to adopt and have been beyond blessed by this choice.  Even though she's going to kill us with future dental bills and eyebrow waxing!! Oh, she would die if she knew I just said that, don't tell her- OK?!

I just heard about this group this morning on the radio and encourage everyone to check it out.  There are over 4,000 kids in my state alone waiting for adoption... 4,000!!!!!  Can you imagine the impact we could make on this number if more people would see adoption as an option?  International, domestic, babies, toddlers, and teens, they all need a family!!  I encourage you to check this site and then pray about it.  Please consider adding the link to your blog or facebook!

Have a GREAT weekend!!

Weekend Re-Cap, Alice, Alice, Alice!

Saturday I cleaned my whole house so I could get to the art room today.  Monday is usually my "clean like a freak" day!

Saturday night the mister and I went to see 

Alice in Wonderland in 3D!!

I bought the tickets at 4:50 for a 7:05 show,  we went back to the theater at 6:30 and man, am I glad we did!  The movie before us was just letting out and people for the 7:05 were already rushing the door!  Finally a lady came out and said they were cleaning as fast as they could and would we please line up behind the candy machine- so we did, this is not a lady I'd mess with, she's large and IN CHARGE!

I was the 2nd one into the theater 'cause they know who I am!  I was 2nd behind Big-Sweaty Guy!

Big sweaty guy sat in the single seat at the top.  His hair was soaked, he was alone with his bucket of popcorn, but he was wheelin' and dealin' on his cell right up until the start of the movie!  We sat in the top row, everyone crawled across us to get to the other end of the row- why, I don't know, cause there is a staircase on both sides of the theater!

I liked the movie!

3D- no other way to see it in my opinion!!

❤The Red Queen❤ 

Alice

and the delicious Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter!

The Mister, who was not thrilled to see this movie, said "it was better than I was expecting", I guess that's a good review coming from him!

We didn't eat theater food- I REALLY try to limit my junk gunk!

We went to a roadhouse place, I ordered a thing called

"Porkies"

I have this rule (usually) where I either won't order something with a stupid name or I'll call it what it is.  Years ago when I worked for Kodak and was on the road eating junk-on-the-run (I also ran 18 miles a week so I figured a bit of junk wasn't going to kill me, and guess what?  It didn't!) I use to go thru BK every once in a while for breakfast.  They had (maybe they still do?!) these things called

cinna-mini's (550 calories, 26 grans of fat, 7 grams saturated fat and 9 teaspoons of sugar!).  I refused to order them by that name, I ALWAYS asked for cinnamon rolls!  There was a place where I went to college that had a sandwich called the BIG WALLY.... ummm, NO!  I never had that and even if I would have wanted one, I would have pointed.

So anyway... I did order the porkies and I even called them that- what is the world coming to?

Sunday we got up and went to church.  We go to Mars Hill, our pastor is Rob Bell.  Do you know of him?  Go to youtube and type in Nooma.  He's an awesome teacher and a "Christian" that gets it.  You know, not one of those that has to hate everything he doesn't agree with, one that let's God judge, cause, ummm, that's God's job and not ours!  He's a dude, he got in a giant fish Sunday because we're studying the book of Jonah.

 On our way past Michael's I asked the Mister to pull in to see if they had these cricut cartridges that they had advertised for $14.99!  When we got in the store, Mister said "run, run" and am I glad I did- I got the last one!  2 ladies came in after us asking for them and the lady helping them said "well we have 1 left, but that lady (ME!!!) in line has the ticket for it".  Yeah for me!  She said someone had come in right when they opened and bought every one they had (except the one she left for me!!!)

it was the one i wanted too, how lucky was i?

I asked the lady if they were getting more in, because with a $14.99 price you know it's going to be like The Great Cabbage Patch Doll Riots of '84!!

She said they're discontinuing these cartridges, so that's why they were so cheap.  The Mister said "well I guess that gal that got all the others is going to be listing on ebay today!"

So my tips for Monday are:

1. go see Alice

2. Don't order food with stupid names because it will probably kill you

3. go watch a Nooma

3. when cricut cartridges are $14.99, you're going to have to camp out to get your mitts on one!

Have a fantabulous day!  I'm going to go get cuttin' for
