This is him  just in from being outside for 25 minutes, crying and whining for me to pick him up. Outside, he’s a completely different dog. As soon as I laid him on the floor he was “the terror” once again. You can see the devil in his eyes in this pic. Don’t you agree?

We have to go now! We’re going to the vet for his last set of Puppy shots! Yay! Happy weekend all :)

V-day, Houses, Alfie, Rest time.

It’s almost the weekend and I’m so definitely ready for it. Everything was screwed by Tuesday. We ended up going to see Avatar and getting home close to midnight, which meant poor Alfie was in his cage all day long with a few breaks in between when I popped home for lunch, and right before we left for our movie. Being the awesome owners we are, we stayed up with him a bit longer than we normally would.

Which is why I’m SO excited it’s almost sleep-in day. Wake up at 6:30/7:00 on Saturday for an hour with the pup, and then go back to sleep for a few.

Are you excited about Valentines Day? I’m not a fan, usually and I have no reason to be. But this year I’m going to do something special for the boyfriend. It involves a lot of food, since we both love eating, maybe me more so than him. I’m not going to post anything here until the night is over, so I won’t ruin any surprises. But one or two of the menu items are listed on my recipe page. Ooh la la.

Sporadic update. No? I still have to mail out Jordan’s gift to her, since she won that Magnapod contest. No worries, I e-mailed her mentioning this was an unusually busy week for me and I just haven’t even had time to pack it in a box for her. Forgives?

My eyes get really bad when I’m in malls. So much so I think that people may think I want to cry. I blink a lot and I don’t know if they’re dry, or watery. Does your get like that? I hate it. It’s almost like the fans are blowing on my eyes. I don’t really know….

living-areaI know I don’t own my own home yet, but one can still mock up and dream of their potential homes. Scott and I were talking the other night, and there are a few must-haves when we buy a home. Perhaps I need to investigate Lake Murray SC Real Estate? On my list of priorities are a DISHWASHER, because I friggen want to throw a tantrum every time I need to do the dishes. It also must have a fire place, or one of those fake ones that spurts out heat, oh and also — a nice tub in the bathroom. I don’t bathe in the apartment tub we have here because it’s gross and old. I miss baths. Scott wants a two car garage. I think that was basically it. It seems like our home if/when we buy one is going to be a nice one, but nowhere near Lexington SC Real Estate, since we don’t live in the States. I like the layout of the one I have pictured above. But I don’t think it’s my style. It’s what I want to be, but not who I am sort of thing. Do you get what I’m trying to say?

Who dat?

Peet, Amanda

Have you ever been told that you look like a celebrity?

I personally haven’t, in person anyway. This this one guy that I’ve known online for about 10 years always said that I resembled the actress Amanda Peet. She’s not all that famous, and when I see her I think she’s absolutely gorgeous (does that mean I’m vain? Since I “look” like her?)! But she has a different facial structure than me — I think, in most of her photos and her eyes are nothing like mine. Or are they? I wish I had her thick luxurious thick head of hair. My hair only looks like that when it’s first blow dried and has split ends. McPoofy Galore. That, and she has huge chompers. Or needs a private placement memorandum.

A lot of people were on facebook, a few days ago posting their celebrity doppelganger. I decided to post a photo of Amanda Peet, as my profile photo. I think she fits the bill, pretty accurately. In fact, one of my cousins commented and said Amanda looks just like me with bangs. I’m flattered though. What do you all think? Especially the people who read this blog (and never comment) who know me in person. At least my cousin Holly agrees.

This is the picture that I used:

Maybe I should sport them? I haven’t had bangs since I grew them out in 7th grade. Shame the boyfriend hates all bangs, though and I know I’d get sick of them fairly quickly. There’s a reason I never cut them again. Right?

I’ve also been told I look a lot like my cousin (the one who told me I look like Amanda Peet). We all could be triplets that are all 15 years apart.

Shu-zam-oww!
