Day 118 - Fashion Of This Week At Work

As promised:


^Monday: Oh blue shoes! You killed me this day! But I love them so....


^Tuesday: I feel like I should be in London in this outfit or riding a horse maybe? Note: I have claw hands here...must pay more attention to how I pose my hands.


^Wednesday: I look like I should be going somewhere way cooler than work.


^Thursday: I really wanted to wear flats so I had to build my outfit around my shoes. I love this shirt to death.


^Friday: It's good to not be in a business where you have to dress professionally every day.

Day 117 - Oh Blog...

...I have been so neglectful!! I promise to post pictures of the infamous wedding and my birthday, but first I have a new job! It's a temp gig, but full-time for now and so I have been taking pictures of my outfits all week. Why? Because I am obsessed with myself. So here is what I wore (oh, and I think I will try to do this every week.):


^Monday! A classic "first day at work" outfit for me. This dress has even survived a very scary caught in the rain dye accident. I love it so.


^Tuesday! Channeling Grease?


^Wednesday! I so love this dress too and it was only like $7. Doesn't get much better than that.


^Thursday! I tried on about 5 different outfits this day. I feel like it's something my mom would wear, except she would've thrown on some awesome necklace with it.


^Friday! I had no idea I'd love this combo so much, especially with the shirt tucked in, but I am in loooove.

Hope you enjoyed! Happy Friday and weekend!!

Day 116 - The Problem With Women Is...

...Other Women.

I am currently watching The Wendy Williams Show. Don't ask why, first episode I have ever seen in my life.

She is talking about Mariah Carey and the Eminem episode going on. EMINEM started it and made fun of her in his video and then she retaliated by "possibly" making fun of him in her song/video "Obsessed." She says it isn't, so there. And now he has gone on in another song and says he has naked pics of her and whatnot.

Now, Wendy Williams was talking about this and said Mariah had it coming because she started it. Um...Wendy you are forgetting that Eminem started it. And yes Wendy, it's so lovely when you say some women "had it coming."

And then she and someone in her audience were saying that they hoped he followed through and proved that he had the pictures! Yes Wendy, some woman deserves private naked pictures of her splattered across the media. I know I may sometimes say, "Well celebrities shouldn't be so dumb to take naked pictures," but that does not mean I think that it's OK for everyone to see them.

And now she is saying that Nick Cannon should have made Mariah Carey not make the song. Because we all know that men should tell women what to do career-wise.

Wendy, you suck. You suck in a not funny way like Tyra sucks. And women like you are why there is even a problem with women.

Day 115 - Happy Birthday To Meeeeeeeeeeee!

It's my 25th birthday this Friday the 31st of July!!!!

Legal Eagle and I are going to San Francisco and Fort Bragg/Mendocino. My middle sister is coming to Los Angeles with a friend and then we are all heading up there to meet my oldest sister.

It's very exciting to get to spend my 25th back in the SF area. It feels very fitting to me and I'm so freaking happy to get away.

But I was thinking...if I could spend my birthday any other way it would be watching a marathon of What I Like About You with my mom while my dad would makes drinks and snacks and chime in, "Ah, I think I've seen this one."


On another note: I know I've been horrible about updating, but I promise to get back into once I return and to also finally do a wedding post! Yikes, so behind!

Until then...I will be celebrating my birthday week and pretty much MIA.

Day 114 - How To Spot An Orange County Woman

- Orange tan

- Fake nails with French manicure

- Fake, fried blonde hair

- Some ugly, tacky, "they think it's stylish" outfit

- Giant diamond ring (or a spot on their finger with a "reserved for giant diamond" sign on it)

- Bad, harsh makeup

- Fake boobs anyone?

- A tiny pitchfork in their designer bag

- Fake smile, fake teeth possibly

- Rich, sad, whipped guy on their arm


Don't get me wrong, I don't think this of all Orange County women. I suppose since I once lived there, I was one at some time too...at least the pitchfork part.

Day 113 - My Starbucks' Issue

Back in December my middle sister took me out to Starbucks and after she paid, I said, "Tip them."

The rest of my trip home we told everyone how I tipped Starbucks with her money. (Don't worry, she isn't stingy. The Starbucks we went to had mean people there who never tipped at my sister's salon.)

So then today Legal Eagle and I went to Starbucks since we are in Orange County today. I have a couple of her random dollars in my wallet because she doesn't carry a wallet.

After we order, I tipped the woman a dollar. Convo goes:

LE: Did you just tip my dollar?

Me: Yeah.

LE: You so only did it because she said your dress was cute.

Me: Yeah.

(Sidenote: The server said my dress was cute and it is. Actually both of our dresses are super cute.)

So now I've discovered that I tip other people's money while at Starbucks. This is weird.

Day 112 - My Letter To Tyra

Currently, I am watching an episode of Tyra Banks and it's about sexting and teens. It is ridiculous and insane and I have a few things to say to Tyra.

Dear Ty Ty,

First, I get you are about empowering girls, but what about the boys on the other side of this sexting? Is it more okay for them to be doing it because they are boys? Do you just want to shame the girls? I'm sure there are little 13-year-old boys who are emotionally torn up with low self-esteem doing this as well. (Or do you not think boys feel that way and any girl who does this must be a hot mess?) Be an equal opportunity helper.

Second, when the girl said she sends sext messages as previews for when she sees her boyfriend, she did mean previews like the movies. Do not act like you didn't understand. It was quite clear and we all know what a preview (in any use of the word) is.

Third, if you can't use the proper terminology in reference to sex around these girls then maybe you shouldn't be the one talking to them. Be an adult Tyra, use your words!

Fourth, isn't this the second show you've done about teens and sexting? You need knew employees. By the way, I'll make myself available to move to NY and work with you.

Fifth, I'm more concerned about that one girl's crazy flipped out bangs than her sexting habits. Please fix them!!!

Sixth, tell these girls that all 13 to eh, about 18-year-old boys are lame anyway and most beyond that age as well. Tell them that little skinny teenage boys who know close to nothing aren't even worth the 5 cents it costs to sext.

Seventh, when that girl said if you sext something you have to do it, you should've said, "No, it's called being a tease." Ha. Zing!

So Tyra, stop jumping done these young ladies' throats and shaming them as much as you can. Instead, actually offer some helpful advice. Or take away every teenager's cell phone. This I would agree with.

Sincerely,
Your #1 Fan

Day 111 cont. - Is It Worth Being Famous?

On her Twitter, Miley Cyrus does not know the difference between "to" and "too." Many times over. And yet she is a bazillionaire. But I know the difference. Which is preferable, it's a toss-up.

Day 111 - Cheeseburger Tendencies And Grilled Cheese Tears

Everyday Legal Eagle and I have the same conversation about what to eat.

If I were really honest my answer would be the same everyday: cheeseburgers. That is all I want all the time.

I do not think this is normal or that one person can have a cheeseburger one day and then want one the rest of the week. Luckily, for my arteries, I do not eat a cheeseburger everyday although I believe that everyday I do say, "I just want a cheeseburger."

On another food note, I almost cried today when I messed up my grilled cheese. Go figure I would cry about food. It's a weird kind of day.
