I could write a blog. I have thoughts.

Life at the library, adventures with friends and other hysterics...

Affirmative. I poked one. It was dead.

Big day today.

So I made my resolutions yesterday and I realized that it's basically the same stuff as always - minus the flossing thing.

In light of this realization I've decided to kick things up a notch.

I said I was going to live healthier, I'm going to start by giving up pop.

If you know me at all either your jaw dropped or you can now stop laughing.

I'm slightly obsessed with carbonated beverages, but that's the point, they're bad for you and it would be wise to stop drinking them so often.

So, I'm going to try to go a year without drinking pop.

Which means I need a substitute.

Today I tried vitamin water - it was nasty, but that could have been just the flavor I attempted.

I got some good ideas from people, but what about you? Any ideas for substitution?

Is sparkling water bad for you?

Anyway, I'm gonna start small with the no more pop thing - okay, so it's not really small but we're gonna see how long it lasts - and then work my way up to going to the fitness center twice a week and all that.

Today was big for other reasons as well, it's the boyfriend and my two year anniversary.

I know, right?

And don't even try to hide it. I know those of you who made it to my grad party came only to make sure he wasn't a figment of my imagination.

Originally we were supposed to do something family related, but after realizing that wasn't romantic we skipped out on that and went out to dinner by ourselves instead.

I dared him into eating a jalapeno. I'm pretty sure he's puking it up at this very instant.

I would be.

After realizing his pop was not stopping the pain he drank half my tea cause it was more helpful.

See, tea, better for you than pop in more ways than one.

But he had to work tonight so he headed out after dinner and I stayed in and watched Miss Congeniality 2.

Huzzah for Interlibrary Loans.



Scale of Awesome says 6.5/10. Not as good as the first one, but entertaining nonetheless.

If you haven't seen the movie watch this clip and call it good.



Well that and the return of that redhead from Charmed, Red, and god knows what else she's guest starred in.

I forgot she even has her on tag on here but I can never remember her name.

She'll always be Natalie to me.

And that's all I got.

Song of the day plus more of my favorites from 2013:

Humans are Dead (live) - Flight of the Conchords


posted the episode version of this a while ago, but just found this one and love it.

binary solo still gets me.

more from 2013:

Roar - Katy Perry


similar to Sara's "Brave" but good nonetheless.

Blurred Lines - Robin Thicke feat. Pharrell and TI


i hate that i like this song cause i really don't like him. plus this video is just weird, the only reason i put up with it is pharrell's dance moves.

and i'm out.

have a good weekend.

Fireworks, Ted, Summer Songs and a Binary Solo

I'm free!!

Until August!!

From school that is, now it's Camp J in high gear. Meeting this weekend with an impromptu golfing session after, but that's really more for our sanity and practice for the big tournament in August.

It was a good day at least. Left early this morning cause I took the Library Goddess with me. I didn't get pulled over and I only ran over one curb with her in the car so I'm calling it a victory.

Class was good, talked about literacy strategies and then presented our digital book projects. I'm just glad it's done, included everything from the syllabus but we shall see.

After that it was the pizza party. Basically a get together meal for all the library students. I met a lot of people, and it's amusing because I get introduced as the Cool Aunt's niece and they all know her so it's like an immediate, "oh yeah!" kind of thing. Highly entertaining.

Added something to the Cool Aunt's haiku, then took off and headed out to see the boyfriend and buy some fireworks.

Hit up my dorm mom's stand, called her enroute of course and she answers, "yes we're open where are you?" The woman knows me all too well. And she gives me free stuff...cause I buy stuff....lots of stuff.

To be fair I did warn him in advance that he was about to see his girlfriend spend an obscene amount of money on something that will literally blow up in her face.

But he'll probably be lighting off half of it anyway.

All I have left to buy is tanks. And I can get those from the Strang stand the day before. They have one in the Dollar General parking lot that I always hit up to support their baseball team. I used to play softball there so gotta show some support. In Strang, not the Dollar General parking lot. Just to clear that up.

After fireworks we went out to eat with his fantastic sister and her amusing boyfriend. They're pretty great so it was cool hanging out with them. And then we hit up Ted. Mark Wahlberg, Mila Kunis, talking stuffed teddy bear, etc.

It was....interesting. I mean, not awful. Heart-warming at times. Highly inappropriate at others.

Scale of Awesome would rate it somewhere around 4/10. It wasn't bad, I laughed, I just don't plan on watching it again.

Very Family Guy-esque. Since it was the same dude it kind of makes sense.

If you don't know the premise, it's basically this kid has no friends so he makes a wish that his teddy bear could come to life and they could be best friends forever. And it works, and then the story jumps to like 25 years later when he's 35 and has a girlfriend who's sick of the bear and all that.

Here:



like i said, interesting.

And, as is tradition. Out for the summer means a new Summer Song.

Cause I'm a nerd and declare the first song that plays after I'm officially out for the summer to be my summer song and I can't skip it for the entire summer. Which works out for some, and not so well for others.

2008: Kat Deluna's "Whine Up"

this was one of them that got old fast.

2009: "Tomorrow Still Comes" Will Dailey

he's a bit quirky, just go with it.

2010: "Remember Last Time" by Avi Buffalo

yes they're kids and his voice is much different recorded, this is live.

2011: "Tonight, Tonight" Hot Chelle Rae

technically it was the radio version, but i found this one and as i've posted the other multiple times, i'm posting this one now. shockingly not sick of this one yet.

which leads me to 2012 and...drumroll....or not. 

Big surprise here, though it wasn't planned I hit shuffle as usual.

2012: "Want U Back" the US version of course

get tired of the kid rapper on the uk one.

the grunts really do make the song though, found this one and it's just not the same.

she is fantastic live.
and like 18.

and getting married.



and here's a little something extra just because i can.

Flight of the Conchords "Robo Boogie"

love the binary solo.

OUT!
