Laughing with Life

TGIF...

10 things I am going to miss about America

Here is a brief list of things that I am going to miss when I leave...

1. In and Out burgers.  Yummy!  You can't go wrong with a double double and fries!
2. Driving on the right side of the road.  I am going to get so confused over there! 
3. Sunshine.  I hear it is pretty gloomy there. 
4. Market runs with C.  Who am I going to laugh at the people with? 
5. Good mexican food.  Burritos, nachos, tamales... YUM!!!!  

Ok, I am trying to find more things, and I am drawing a blank!  So it is really a list of 5 things.  People aren't included.  I am going to miss everybody!!!!

 

Gotta love You Tube....

Pin up girl?

Pin up girls are beautiful.  Everyone likes looking at them.  I know I do.  The art work is classic.  When people think of a pin up girl they think thin and beautiful.  Well, big is beautiful, too!!

I want to extoll the virtues of Les Toil.  He is an amazing artist.  He does pin up girls.  These pin up girls are amazing.  They are real women, big beautiful women!!!  Through his art, he has given big girls like me a confidence to remember that we can be sexy too.  That sexy doesn't have to be what society says it is.  He works with his models and finds out about them to create a picture that is fully unique.  I can't say enough how amazing his artwork is.  When I can afford it, I am going to be a Toil girl!  

Thank you Mr. Toil for looking deeper and making big girls feel sexy and feel beautiful!

I found the perfect hangover food...

After a night of overindulging, you know you need to eat.  But do you want something greasy, spicy, or fried?  That is the big question!

Well, look no further!  Ladies and gentlemen, I have found what you need!!  Wendy's' Spicy chicken sandwich.  It is fried, spicy, crispy, and kinda greasy.  It is EVERYTHING all rolled into one.  Don't forget to get a chocolate frosty, too!

After you eat, you will feel right as rain!  Then you can get on with your weekend!

Happy hangover!

Did you just answer your purse?

My best pal and I go to the market together.  We refuse to take our hubbys because they simply get in the way most of the time.  Or they get run over by little old ladies with blue permed hair.  Or they gripe and complain about how high food prices are.  There are a myriad of reasons we leave the boys at home.  So it is just me and her!  We know the market, we know where everything is!  I should tell you that when C and I go out, people tend to stare.  Not because we are drop dead gorgeous.  I mean we aren't ugly either, but people stare because we crack ourselves up!  We are always laughing at ourselves as well as everyone around us!  No one and nothing is sacred!!!  You are forewarned!!!

Anyway, let me get to the actual story!  One day we were at the market having a ball, like normal and all of a sudden, I pick up my purse and put it to my ear.  C stops and gives me the WEIRDEST look.  I innocently ask "What?'  She replies, "Did you just answer your purse?"  "Yep, i sure did!"

Let me explain.  I am one of those women who have an obscenely large purse that everything falls to the bottom of.  I thought my phone was ringing.  I didn't want to dig through the entire contents of my purse to find the phone.  SO, I just picked up my purse and listened.  It makes perfect sense when I explain it.  I just looked like an idiot with my purse up to my ear.

We are still laughing about me answering my purse!!!!

Happy Friday All!!!

Stitch

I am in love with Stitch.  He is cute and oh so fluffy!  I watch is cartoon every morning, if I am up that early.  He comes on at 5:00.  That is sometimes WAY too early for me.  

I could get all deep and philosophical on you and say that this little blue alien looking for his family really resonated with me because I am adopted and I am looking for my birthfamily.  Or some other such nonsense.  When it comes down to it, I like him because he make me laugh, and laugh.  He is funny and sweet and charming.  He is very quotable.  

I love stitch!!!

This week is dragging on...

Does this week seem extra long to the rest of you, or is it just me?  time seems to be moving slower than molasses in January!   Maybe someone pushed the slomo button and forgot to turn it off.  You know like you can do with your tv?  The weekend always seems to be on fast forward.  It is kinda like when you are a kid and it takes forever and forever for christmas or summer break to come, then when it does, it goes by super fast!!!

Now that i think about it, maybe it is just me.  I need to stir things up a bit.  Any ideas?  Come on you all must know something I can do to make this week go by a little faster!!!

Put our thinking caps on people!!!

Tick tock...

My clocks are ticking.... NO, not THAT clock.  My clocks.  I collect clocks.  All kinds!!!  I love them.  I have a princess crown clock over my desk, I have a toast shaped clock in my kitchen, and I even have one that meows.  Yeah, it is a cat clock!  I am not even obsessed with time, I just like clocks.  Ok, maybe I am a little obsessed with time, but not crazy obsessed!  I like clocks!  There I said it!  I like the and I odn't plan on stopping!  I don't think there are any programs for this kinda thing.  Oh well!!!

What a sad site....

I have started packing.  I hate packing.  Oh, for those of you who don't know, I am moving.  VERY far away.  My darling hubby is getting stationed in England and I am going with him.  I know the Air Force will pack us up, but there are some things that are way to special to let others pack up.  Now, my walls are blank.  And sad.  You have to understand that I don't do well with blank walls.  They call out to me. "Kelli... Fill us with all your knic knacky things!" SO, I have to fill them.  Now, my living room is full of bubble wrap and I have blank walls!
