When You Don't Feel Like Blogging

I'm kinda in the mood not to blog, but it's Friday and I have a busy weekend of working so I may not have the chance again...

I feel like doing a million things, but I haven't even motivated myself to start...so I'm going to scream....

and get started...

I did get out of my pj's today. The husband and I went and saw the X-men movie, went Thrifting, and had some thai food...there was an attempt to buy groceries but it was hella busy so we just left emtpy handed.

I'm off to dye my hair, do some laundry, and clean up the craft room so I can actually get my craft on...ciao

Fade Into You

My momma came to visit this weekend.

She put some highlights in my hair. It was the first time she's ever done anything like that and it turned out really well. Now she knows why stylists charge so much...it's time consuming!

Today was a great day.

The husband and I had a date night, and went to see the adjustment bureau.

Tomorrow I plan to put away laundry and clean out some closets.

I also need to look for curtains...I wonder if Urban Outfitters has what I'm looking for....

That's What She Said Sunday

Be Creative, Inc.

(source)

Today I've been sketching and painting. I have lots of things I am working on.

Children's books have been on my mind a lot recently. I am in process I writing and illustrating my own.

Today while doing stuffs I have watched:

Sweet Home Alabama

Confessions of a Shopaholic

Monsters, Inc

Maybe soon I will be able to show some of my works, although I am very hesitant mostly due to others profiting off my ideas. Do you have any worries about the creative commons?

Life As We Know It

(source)

Today was the first time my sister in law, Vanessa, and I have ever hung out.

We:

ate lunch at Whataburger w/ her daughter Channing.

went to the carwash.

listened to music i don't usually listen to (Kesha? I think there's a $ in there?)

went by Starbucks (mostly for me lol)

took Channing and her Girl Scout buddies to the Haunted Forest in Crosbyton (which doesn't have a Starbucks).

went to Target to get lotion and razors.

shaved our legs in the car. (bonding moment)

went to get pedicures (which is why we needed to shave our legs quickly).

got some awesome pedi's.

went to movies. We saw Life As We Know It. (really cute).

went to Wal-Mart.

It was a pretty productive and fun day, and we got to know each other better.

What did you do today?

So Different From Books

Just like how movies made about books are never like the book. And PS the book is usually better. I like to read the book before heading out to see the movie made about it. Usually after the movie I get a good rant in about what was different, and my husband just nods his head in agreement. I think people should read more, it increases your vocabulary....

What book are you reading right now?

13/30: Favourite Movies

1. Sydney White. Amanda Bynes is my girl crush, and she always makes me laugh. This movie has some funny lines about the geekiest things which I love! Plus its a modern take on Snow White.

2. Pride and Prejudice. Clint hates this movie, and I am pretty sure it was him who ruined my DVD. When he's in trouble I make him watch this movie lol. I think this movie is visually beautiful and this may be the only movie I like Keira Knightly in. Plus who doesn't love Jane Austen?
3. Howl's Moving Castle. I watch this movie almost every night when I go to sleep. We own almost all Hayao Miyazaki's films. I love that Christian Bale does the voice of Howl. I am also a big fan of Kiki's Delivery Service, and My Neighbor Totoro. PS this movie is based on a book, the movie is not the same of course, but it is an interesting read.
4. Amelie. This was one of the first movies Clint and I watched together when we first started dating. It is also the soundtrack for our wedding. This is a fav for the both of us and we always enjoy watching it together.
5. Breakfast at Tiffany's. This is my go to movie when I'm down and out. I love Audrey Hepburn. I like the randomness of her character, her wardrobe.....lol everything.
