March Maddness...

Never have I worked somewhere were so many girls actually care about sports and I LOVE IT!!  Since Katie and Dana's teams were in the elite 8, I had to decorate their desks on Friday!!!  So I brought out the red and blue decorations.

  Rock Chalk, Jayhawk!!!  After a long week at work....... all my co-workers (aka the reason why I LOVE work) and I decided to get together to hang out at Majerle's and watch the KU game.  

Little did I know I was going to the bar with the #1 fans ever to graduate from KU.  Katie and Dana were unlike any other fans.  After only hanging out for a few short hours, I had a whole new respect for them.  

I didn't/don't know too many people who love where they went to college as much as I until I met them :-). 

 Too top off my Friday U of A finally got what they deserved (sorry LeeAnne and Caca).  Let the March Maddness continue, Go Louisville!!

This would only happen to me...

Let me just start by saying that the moral of this story is not that I lost my mailbox keys again (because I lose everything) no, no, no!!  It is more important, what happen after I lost my keys (despite what my mama says). Just trust me.....

So I am driving home from my home visit yesterday, just cruising down 51 when I think I should try to run a few errands and get some things done since I am home before 5.  So I make plans to run to target, pick up prescriptions, get gas and then call the locksmith because I lost my keys a few weeks ago and I am sure my mail is out of control.  So I call the locksmith and they are planning on coming at 5. (which is perfect because that is just enough time before I meet the SARRCie's for dinner)

Jess and I headed to meet the locksmith at the mailboxes because I am scared to go by myself and this guy comes to fix the box...... so 10 minutes pass by and it is obvious that he is struggling, it looks to be a tricky lock.  He then proceeds to go to his car and get he's super cutter, they looked something like this.......

When he comes back I am sure that Jess and I had concerned/worried faces because I was a little nervous to see what he was going to do next.  A few more minutes pass and before I know it he is holding the super cutters with my mailbox door in pieces in his hand.  Needless to say I no longer have a mail box, it is more of a open mail slot.  The door is ripped off and laying in pieces on my counter top. 

So the moral of the story is don't send me anything and maybe......don't lose your keys.

What Heaven Might Be Like.....

So there is definitely something I can't live without and it is what Heaven might even possibly look like but I can't live without the clothing store Anthropologie.  

Majority of the time I have to save every penny and hit the sale rounders when I go here, but I absolutely without a doubt LoVe this store.  If I could drink wine, blog, eat fudge and shop here for the rest of eternity my life might be perfect.  There is nothing I like more then the adorable unique clothes that are so different than anywhere else.  So if you've never been, I would highly recommend it!!

*Thanks to my Auntie for showing me the best store almost 8 years ago*

CROCS= the worst thing ever invented

Who decided hey one day I am going to invent the (so called comfiest) shoes and yes they are going to be as ugly as possible?  As a teacher we all know that these wonderful inventions CROCS are Huuuge at school.  In order to be the cool kid you have to make sure you have a couple pairs. 

Lately I've noticed a problem, as my 23 year old friend also thinks that these shoes are the coolest trend.  Just to make things worst she wears them everywhere (even in public) and hers of course  are a lovely shade of brown with the fuzzy lining (My favorite).  I won't show any faces with these gross CROCS, I'll leave the guessing up to you.....

If you see these CROCS lying around just do it (throw them away)

Please everyone (especially over the age of 12) think before you buy, hhahahaha!
