I was in the mood for something bright.

I was in the mood for something bright. So BAM! TAKE THAT! WITH YOUR EYES! 😳

I'm not much of a pink-wearer, but I really like this color. It was an Orly October Breast Cancer Awareness polish. I don't know if you can still buy it, but I will totally paint your nails with mine! 😃


Shadow just came in here to tell me...

Shadow just came in here to tell me that he got really close to Beyonce and she didn't even run away at first.  How cool is that?!

She still flees like her tail is on fire every time she sees me, but hey - she probably sleeps on top of Shadow without him knowing it every night.  I keep my door closed, so she doesn't get to check me out while I'm not moving.

I just thought that was super cool.  He said he was within a few feet of her and she didn't run away for like, 10 seconds.  PROGRESS!  😃  I guess she'll come around when she's ready.  ❤

I got my hair cut something like this.

I got my hair cut something like this.  I like it.  The part I was most excited about was the bangs.  Unfortunately, I have a cowlick that is rebelling, but I believe I am more stubborn than it.  Time will tell.  LOL  Yes, I'll post a photo - as soon as I feel like this is my hair.  You know that feeling... how you have to have a little time to make it yours?  That is where I am with it right now.  But so far, so good.  It was only cut yesterday.  I am about to shower, so we'll see what some blow drying does for it.

Also because I am super awesome I got a free shirt at work today.  It is from MailChimp.  And it's blue.  And I am probably more excited about it than I should be.  LOL


I got one of the plates I didn't think I would be able to get!

I got one of the plates I didn't think I would be able to get! It's got dragons on it. I guess these are supposed to be dragon scales. ❤❤❤

I used it over one my favorite greens ever - A. England's "Dragon." Fitting, right? That is the only A. England polish I have. They aren't sold around here, so you have to get them online. It's one of the more upscale polishes. This is ONE COAT of it. For realz. 😳

Anyway, the photo on the top is all about the polish. It's a beautiful green all of the time, but look how it lights up under the sun. The shimmer! The color! It is just yummy. 😃

I know that these nails are not super fancy or anything like that, but I am really digging these. I have been drooling over these for two days. 😃

Just got home from such a long day.

Just got home from such a long day.  I have hurt my back, BUT ON THE BRIGHT SIDE I now have rims for my car.  FOUR of them, even.  Only cost me $80.  And they are kind of pretty.  AND they match.  😳

Me and Shaun went to Pull-A-Part in Birmingham because all of the nearby salvage yards didn't have anything to fit my car.  They can't tell you what parts they have in stock, but their website did say that they have 4 Kia Sportages who's parts would fit my car.  I thought that surely they would have some rims and they did.

It was pretty interesting because you look up where the cars are, then go in with these wheelbarrows and your own tools, take what you need, and then pay for it.  It was kind of like a scavenger hunt.  Pretty fun, actually.  😃  The rims I just bought have tires on them, but none of the tires are good, so they didn't charge me for them.  It will probably be next week before I can afford tires for them, but hey - I'm one step closer to feeling safe in my car, so I'll take it.

When I was looking up pricing for new rims it was redonk.  Like, of everything I found I would have been paying about $80 PER RIM, not the whole set.  So I feel like I got a pretty good deal.  I like it when that happens.  😃

Then, since I had a coupon that expires today we stopped by Ulta since we were up there.  Nothing like some cheap nail polish to make a girl's day.  🙂  Had a nice dinner at Outback, just the two of us, then headed home.  Oh, and on the way up I had to pee SUPER BAD, so we stopped at a gas station and they had little home-made chess cake squares.  WHAT?  That was awesome.  😃

Anyway, I'm going to shower.  I NEED to.  LOL  I really hope I'm not all crippled up in the morning.  😳

Thank you, Laurel...

Thank you, Laurel, for hanging out for lunch and helping me plant some plants.  Now I'm a real person with a real house with real plants!  I super hope they don't die!  ❤

My nail beds hurt.

My nail beds hurt.  They usually only hurt when my nails are too long, but they don't seem to be.  🙁

I have a dog being stubborn outside.  I can't sleep with him out there.  But I would really like to get to bed.

It's been a day.  I think I could probably sleep from now until Sunday.  😳

Also, I REALLY want to ride my bike. And I just haven't had the time. Super suck!
