The Boob Tube

Ok, so I know I promised Shawn's version of our love story, but it's like getting a cat in heat to stop raising it's rear to get him to sit down and finish it with me.  I'll probably feature it next Tuesday for "Girl Talk Tuesdays". 

On blogs earlier this week, everyone featured their FAV waste of timers T.V. shows.  I wanted to share mine.  Keep in mind I live in another place of mind where fairies and unicorns live. 

Speaking of unicorns, has everyone seen Charlie the Unicorn???  If not, you have to watch this pointless-- waste of 3 mins.  The first week my hubs and I were together he showed me this stupid video and at first I thought it was SO stupid, but Charlie grew on me and now I quote all 5 videos every time unicorns are brought up.  AND...  CANDY MOUNTAIN!!! 

I will show my fav shows in order of my favorite ones to ones that are just.....  MEW.... 

The only show that I will stop everything for is.....  The Walking Dead.  Even if you do not like Zombies, it is such a great show that has a great build of characters and drama.

Shows I watch religiously:

1. The Walking Dead
2. Once Upon a Time-One of my newest luvies.  I enjoy watching all the fairy tales in a different version.
3. True Blood-This one intrigues me at times, other times it's pretty stupid.  The last season was pretty decent.  I mainly like watching all the hotties on the show running around half naked....  Eric=panties dropper.
4. HUNG-Who doesn't love a story about a guy that's hung like a horse??? 
5. Game of Thrones-Awesome drama!
6. Glee-Reminds me of karaoke in a sense.  It also has a good story to it.  I'd love to live in a world where I could just break into song-- out of no where.  lol
7. New Girl-BEST COMEDY ON T.V. PERIOD!
8. Vampire Diaries- Ian Somerhalder  (GUSH), do I need to say more?  I still think he would be the best Christian Grey for fifty Shades.  BOY IS FINNNNNNEEEE!  Who doesn't love a bad boy?

Shows that I watch, but I don't HAVE to watch:

1. The Voice
2. Revolution-I just started this one and I'm wondering how much longer I will continue to do so....
3. Bachelor, Bachelorette, Bachelor Pad-I enjoy watching these idiots make a complete mess of their dignity on this show.  There's obviously a reason they are all single and desperate!
4. Up All Night-This show falls short for me.  I find myself on my laptop more than I actually pay attention to it.
5. NFL football-Anyone else a Giants or Colts fan?
6. Face off
7. Lost Girl
8. Being Human
9. Girls-Slightly reminds me of Sex in the City at a younger age.

Shows I miss:

1. Lost-Yep.  I am a lost junkie.  Again, Ian Somerhalder had me at "I'm Boone" during the first season and I couldn't stop watching. 
2. Sex and the City-It's the ONLY complete series I have on DVD
3. Heroes-I have no idea why they pulled this one...  Anyone know???
4. Friends

Shows that I can't wait to watch this year:

1. American Horror Story-- With the hubs holding my hand.  lol 

It's obvious I am a HUGE potato butt!  Actually, before DVR, I never watched T.V.,,, like AT ALL.  I DVR everything and usually catch up when I have absolutely nothing else to do with me precious time.  I guess I fit in with the nerds, because if you see the theme here, I am a huge Sci-fi junkie.     

HUMP DAY!

Get your hump on ladies....  Was that too much?  LOL

Anyways, just wanted to drop in and say part 2 of my lovely luuvvvv story will probably be up tomorrow.  I got home late last night after work and baby B. was already passed out and I felt obligated to go to bed. 

Things are going well at work!  I am through the first interview for this promotion and I have two more to go, hopefully this week.  It's a waiting game from here. 

The Shred is not going well.  With this promotion ordeal going on, I have had a hard time finding time to work out.  I KNOW it's only 20 minutes and I shouldn't have any excuses, but when it comes down to it, with the nerves/stress I have going on right now, I'd rather spend my time snuggling my sweet child than working out.  I'll get there again, but now is just not a good time. 

I've noticed that many of you are getting into these "Button" ordeals for the blogs to where you can click them and it will take you to that particular person's page.  Does anyone want to tell me how to accomplish this?  I'd like a cute little button that you can click other than the one in my lady parts. 

Oops....  I did it again.  Sorry guys, I never claimed to be modest and I just assume that if it offends anyone, then they have a choice whether they really want to continue reading my blog or not. 

Which brings me to my next point.  If you are a long time reader, you have probably noticed that I have gone from being conservative to saying what I actually want.  How I type my blogs now is really how I talk in real life.  I am be pretty inappropriate at times, I try to find humor in everything I do, and I like to surround myself with individuals who live on the "lighter side" of life.

Why be so serious all the time?  Right? 

Let loose ladies, be yourself--It really is liberating!

Girl Talk Tuesday

How I met my Hubs...  And how he fell....  Sort of. (Part 1) 



My first ever themed day, I'd like to discuss the topic of how we all met our significant others.

Shawn and I's story is actually quite amusing considering WHERE we met. 

So, once upon a time.....

The hubs and I met at a GAY bar.  I'm shitting you not!  You really can find love surrounded by rainbows and fairies. 

I was at a point in my life where I had given up on love.
Newly divorced. 
On a sexual rampage. 
With absolutely no care in the world for my actions.

I enjoyed my time out with my gay boys and I spent the weekends watching the drags of the Ville diva it up on the stage.  I wasn't welcomed there, most of the lesbos called me, "that straight white girl" and so I just sat in the corner with my friend Kenton and drank myself into a stupor.

A guy (let's call him Bob for story telling purposes) that I had no intentions on ever dating decided to show up at the bar and try to molest me.  I was wearing a black dress and he thought it would be fun to try to put his hands up it.  I started freaking out, so I told one of the girl's that worked there (the bartender), who happened to be straight as well, what Bob was doing.  She had invited her friend out too (my future husband). 

So, she tells me to sit down and entertain Shawn while she gave the inappropriate gentleman, Bob, a "talkin' to".  She talks to Bob for a good 15 minutes, which allows me to jabber the huz's ears off.  I'm a chatty Kathy, I can't help it..... 

I was able to add him as a friend on Facebook, so we could at least be "friends", since I felt like he was into bartender.

Finally, I go back to Bob and he is ready to go home.  I walk him out to his car and he precedes to pull me into his truck to talk, then he decides to show me his one eyed pirate.  ARRRR....  He kept trying to get me to look at it, which I would not.

 I guess seeing the size would want to make me jump on it or something???  I am glad it's worked for you in the past dude, but it's not welcomed with me.  Schmuck. 

I'm finally able to get out of the car and he follows me down the rode and yelling for me to get back in his truck.  It was like something you have seen in the movies.

What. A. Weirdo.  It was the last time I talked to him. 

I came back into the bar, scared to death from what I just witnessed, and Shawn was now downstairs and singing karaoke.  I ran up to him and bartender and told them what had happened with Bob.  Freak. 

Shawn sang one song that I can remember, and it was Michael Bubble's "Feelin' Good".  

Was I attracted to my husband before I heard him sing?????  Yes. 

Does the singng add to his overall appearance???  Absolutely!  It's a panties dropper.

I make it home that night and pass out with my puggle- Lilly-Lou. 

The next day I was supposed to meet up with an old friend of mine who was trying to hook me up with his brother.  I had caught Shawn on Facebook the next morning and asked him how his night went with bartender.  He said it went well and that she was a "cool chick".  He said he was going somewhere that evening for karaoke that I had never heard of before.  Right as I was about to give him my cellphone number, my computer crashed with a virus and I could not get back on Facebook.

So, I went out with my old friend who I realized was very lame and his brother was super lame.  I really wanted to know where to find Shawn's karaoke bar.  So, I asked my lame friend if I could use his phone, since I had a basic phone without Internet.  I logged into my FB account and sent him my number.

He texts me shortly after.  I was thrilled to get away from those lame morons.  I get to this whole in the wall bar he is at and we sing, slow dance, and spend the evening together until 4am.  It was sparks.  We were inseparable ever since that night. 

Over two years together, marriage, and a baby, we both lived happily ever after.  The end.  Now, that is my sugar coated love story.  Stayed tuned for his version of the story tomorrow.

LADIES-How did you met your hubby????  I wanna hear about it!

XO-Skinny Gal.....  Somewhere.

 



My 10 Year Reunion

My 10 year reunion......  Was........  LAME SAUCE. 

It wasn't a horrible time, because I was with one of my gal pals that I have been friends with since high school.  She lives in Texas now, so I don't get to see her very often. 

The pretty girls from high school are still pretty, still snobby, still materialistic, still.....  Them. 

I thought people changed after high school???

I asked one of the popular guys what he was doing now after high school and he followed up with, "I'm a lawyer."   STICK FOOT IN MOUTH......  Note to self:  Do not ask anyone else what they are doing now.

We did have a good time taking silly photos.  I don't have all the photos, most of them are on Ashley's camera, so here's what I do have:

Heerow, my name is SGS.  I'm an aspiring MILF.

Here's the outfit.....  I had to give two different poses to really show it off.

The girls and I.

I wasn't one of the most popular girls in high school, I'd say I was on middle ground.  I played high school soccer, I made good grades (I think I was ranked 76/450ish GPA wise), and I really just kept to myself and always had a steady boyfriend. 

This was right after graduation my senior year.  I think I have came a long way and I finally feel grown up.

AND ONE LAST SCAREY/GOOFY one:

So, this was after quite a few drinks.  I discovered a NEW drink that EVERYONE has to try.  It's whipped cream vodka and sprites.  AH-MAZING!  Any other fab.u.lous drinks my sheltered self should try??

Skinny Gal.... Somewhere.

Tomorrow is going to be my first "themed" day.  How about some "Girl Talk Tuesday" in that house???  Bitches be lovin' it!



The Versatile Blogger Award

I blushed a little when I found I was nominated from Erin at Homemade Happenings.   Check out this sweet, sweet gal's blog.  On another note, I am taking Erin's advice and going comfortable for this evenings reunion.  I decided that this was an event to splurge for, so I went to my favorite store, New York and Company, and bought a $68 outfit for this evening that I think is going to be smokin' hot.  I'm just striving for that Stephalicious look in all honesty.  I'm hot in my own way.  Hey, if Fergie can create her name as Fergalicious, I can too damnit. 

So, I know a lot of you voted dress #2 earlier this week, so I wore that outfit yesterday and I wanted to show it off.  This is a dress I bought at Kohls for $10!!!

Dress-Kohls-$10-On clearance NOW, go buy it hookers

Boots-Shoe Carnival-5 yrs old

Belt-New York and Company

Necklace-Body Central

I actually bought the dress for $5, because I purchased the black one too which was $10 and I had a promotional $10 off without a limit purchase from the mail.  Can you tell I am typically a bargain shopper???

OK, here is the big reveal for the hair....  I mean, it's like a red carpet premier in my mind...  lol  Actually, the hubs said he didn't want me to go as dark as the picture from the other day, so I settled in the middle.  I darkened it up for fall so I don't look washed out and I kept the blond.  I had her darken the low light to a dark carmel color which I had her do the entire bottom layer, the underneath portion and low light it throughout.  I had her keep the blond at a platinum color.  I LOVES IT!  I was going for that look where you could tell that I have it colored.  I sometimes get bored with looking natural.  It's really hard to tell the hair in the picture.  I am going to take several pictures tonight and hopefully you will see it better with the off white cardigan I bought.   

7 Random Facts Brought to You By:  Skinny Gal.... Somewhere.

1. I'm pretty sure NO ONE knows this about me.....  I secretly love to dance while getting ready for an event.  I love playing my music loud and being goofy, which is why it takes me so much longer to get ready than for work.
2. I love karaoke and I love to sing too, though my husband trumps my efforts with his golden voice.  This momma went out on Thursday and I sang mostly duets.  Shawn and I sang "Don't You Want me Baby" by the Human League, a friend and I sang "Hold On" by Wilson Phillips and we even did the Bridesmaid's dance along with it (One of my all time favs), and I sang "Moves like Jagar" by Maroon 5 with the DJ.
3. I'm very career oriented.  I am currently up for a promotion that would literally double my salary.  I have 3 intense interviews next week.  Fingers crossed people!!  Along the same lines--There is no way on earth I could ever be a stay at home mom!!  I need adult interaction.  Period.
4. I haven't went on a vacation since I was 18 years old...  That's 11 years people!!!  My mom bitches about not going on a cruise every year, and it makes me want to chuck something at her.  People can be so spoiled!!  I haven't gone on a vacation, because I never have the money and usually my vacation time goes to watching my kiddos.  Before my kiddos it was always work, college, and again - NO money.  I bought my house 4 years ago and it literally sucks the life out of me and my bank account.
5. I think collectibles are pointless.....  Which is one MAJOR ordeal with my hubs.  He collects everything-Hot Wheels, Star Wars EVERYTHING, Tron EVERYTHING, toys, old timey bottles, etc, etc etc.-----POINTLESS and that shit takes up too much space!!!  It disgusts me really.  I even hate buying toys for my girls.  It's just extra junk laying around that is trashing up my house.  Brynn usually plays with her toys, so I am ok with hers.  Sam does not, which is why I hate buying them for her.  She has SO many toys that she takes them all for granted.  That is a story for another day though.....
6. I am not a punctual person.  At work it's hit and miss whether I am on time.  Sometimes I am on time and other days I am anywhere from 1-5 mins late.  For everything else......  Always late.
7. I am so terrified of snakes, that I can't watch them on T.V., see them in zoo exhibits, play with the little snake toys in the stores, etc.  I have a MAJOR phobia with snakes.  Every time I see one, I get chills and have to close my eyes.

Mid Week Check-in

Holla!  I am doing great with the weight loss this WEEK so far... 

I am at a 4 lb loss so far with the new diet and the Shred.  I am SO sore from the Shred.  I usually don't get too excited the first week, because I know it's probably excess water from gorging myself on carbs for weeks and sodium from my lovely Dews.

My large badonkadonk has taken a good hit and is really sore.  I had to get my BC shot yesterday in the buttocks and now my left cheek REALLY hurts, but I told myself as I was getting it injected, "no babies, no babies, no babies....."  LOL  At least not until next year!!  Momma needs to get through a wedding and shed massive amounts of some weight.  :)

I am going to try to avoid measuring my inches until my 30 days of Shred is up.

Getting my hair did this evening and I think it's time to go a little darker.  I thought about this:

Maybe not that dark, but I love the two colors together.  What do you all think?  I'm WAY to indecisive, but I need some kind of change for the fall. 
Just two more days ladies until the weekend!!

High School Reunion????

On Saturday, I am going to crash my High School reunion.  I say "crash", because I didn't buy tickets to go to it, but I am going to still show up at the bar.  They wanted us to pay $20 to go to our small town bar...  That would have been $40 for the hubs and I....  Yea...  Not going to happen. 

I am going with my hubs, one of my besties from high school and one of my EX's!!!!  This happens to be the ex-boyfriend that was my longest relationship.  I dated him for 5 years (through high school and majority of the time through college up until my senior year), he's also the dude that plays the guitar and likes to sit at home majority of the time.

I can't say that there aren't feelings there.  I think there is always some kind of feeling when you see an old ex.  I'm not interested in him, but I have memories.  The good, the bad, and the ugly.  I have to say, he is the only guy that never cheated on me other than my hubbers and we had some pretty good times through out the years, but we also had some ugly times as well.   

Regardless, I am needing the help from my ladies to see what I should wear...

I am about 50lbs heavier than I was in High School which makes me super nervous!! 

Here are a couple of outfits I am thinking about:

So, there are the dresses I have picked out, now I could do black pants, red stilettos and this red silky shirt from NYC found-HERE.  You have to select the red color to really see how pretty it is.  :)

What do you think????
