This is not a confession or anything....

But I may or may not have laughed out loud when the dancing started in this video



Then I spent a good portion of the video feeling TOTALLY embarrassed for the boy.

THEN I fell off my chair laughing when they got to the Victoria Secret part. (I promise it's 100% clean)

The whole thing is very Napoleon Dynamite Meets Carlton Banks





MEETS



*tear wipe* SO FUNNY!

Nice to find something light considering the last few days :)

Male vs. Female

We all know boys and girls think differently right? Logically I know that. Still, when I am faced with the reality of that fact I find myself totally surprised by just how BIG a difference there is.

Example:

I submitted some artwork to a brand new fabric manufacturing company about three weeks ago. Today, at 9:00am I noticed an email from them.

I stared at it in my inbox.

I walked away.

Came back and stared some more.

Walked away again.

Repeat that about 15 more times and you will have a good idea how I spent my morning.

I just couldn't bring myself to open it. What if it was another no? What if it was THE yes I had been dreaming of?

So I sent a text to my husband and my best friend looking for moral support.

I sent them the exact same text that read,"There is an email in my inbox from (Insert Fabric company name), the new company I sent designs to, I can't open it....."

Kevin immediately wrote back, "Let me look."

Me "No! I want to do it."

Kev "Oh I thought you meant you weren't able to open it."

Me "No, I mean, emotionally, I can't open it."

Kev "See, that nonverbal information doesn't come over by text message. What does it say?"

Me "Or that boys and girls think differently. I sent the exact same text to Tobi. We will see how she takes it. I don't know. I haven't opened it yet."

Kev "Of course it will be different for her, you wouldn't be asking her for help opening it"

Me  "I wasn't asking you either"

Now remember, I sent Tobi the SAME initial text. Her response was

Tobi  "Open...open...open "

Done and done.

And this, my dear readers, is why sometimes, although you love your husband dearly, it is a necessity to have a girls night out every now and again.

PS The company wants to see more!!!! YAY! Fingers crossed and lots of prayers!

Coming by it honestly

Remember that post a few weeks back, the History Repeating post? The post in which I made reference to Karaia's lack of grace at times? And even possibly alluded to the fact that this plight also seems to follow my sister? Remember that one? The one where I am pointing all these fingers?

Right.

Me too.

Yesterday, I was doing Thrusters at the gym. Thrusters involve taking a bar bell, putting weights on it, lifting it to your shoulder height, squating, and then as you stand from the squat quickly raising the bar bell over your head. We were supposed to be using as heavy of weights as we could and then work up to even heavier.

On this particular set I was lifting 75 lbs.

On my way up from the squat I brought the bar too close to my body. As I rushed the bar upward I hit the underside of my chin. As hard as I could. (No, not on purpose for those of you who momentarily became lost by the story)

I saw stars all over the place.

I literally felt my skull jiggle, like jello, like it does in cartoons when someone hits someone over the head while they are wearing a big stock pot as a hat.

Now every time I brush my hand by my chin I am reminded that it's time to start including myself among the people to laugh with when talking about clumsy moments :) And it seems that Karaia comes by her "skills" quite honestly.

Some sayings really are true. "When you point one finger at someone you have three pointing back at you."
