Lately.

Some things to note as of late.
Listen.
Thanks to local, Columbus, bloggy friend, Katie, I am OBSESSED with this little ditty.  KP and I dance to it at least a few times a week and I have no shame about it.  None at all.  It's quite possible her favorite song right now and here's why.
You're welcome.
Watch.

Did you girls watch the season premiere of RHNJ?  No?  Girlllllllll!  This season is bout to get real.  I mean can we say drama drama reality TV llama?  And what about Ashley's face?  Those lips?  That hair?  Oy!  I have always been a fan of Caroline and her matriarchal ways and I don't think this season will be any different.
Run.

So I signed up for The Color Run here in Columbus.  To say I'm excited is an understatement!  I'm freaking PUMPED!  I'm running it with a few of my fav girls {Run Betch Run!} and Jimmy {he's our manscot}. I've never done a color run but I know I will not regret it.  Here's hoping I get more than 3 hours of sleep this time.
 Read.

Thanks to the power of blogging I got my grubby little hands on a PDF of Fifty Shades of Grey and I haven't put it down {so to speak} since.  Oh Mr. Grey, you are so mysterious and with the end of every chapter I just want to keep reading to find out more about you.  Side note:  I have heard the rumors that Ian Somerhalder may play Mr. Grey in the movie version of Mom Porn but I had him pinned as more of a Ryan Gossling or Ryan Phillipe a la Cruel Intentions, no?
Fitness.

My friend Sarah posted about a 300 ab challenge she's been doing and that she started seeing results in just 7 days and I had to know more.  She sent me the link and I got started that day.  Jimmy and I have officially done it for, are you ready, 3 days and we can already tell a difference!  It's not noticeable, yet, but I can feel it.  I feel stronger.  I feel more firm.  I feel changes.  It's amazing.  I did take before pics so once I hit the 30 day mark all will be revealed.  Stay tuned. 
Laugh.

Right?  Because did you hear his new song Boyfriend?  Totally loved it and totally thought it was Justin Timberlake.  In fact, when it came on the radio and the announcer said Justin BIEBER I wanted to call them and tell them they were wrong.  True story.  Then I got on Twitter and saw that everyone thought the same thing.  Damn you JB and that catchy new tune.
Drink.

Last Friday night Jimmy came home with the fixings for this moon-a-rita and, I mean, how am I supposed to turn down that offer?  I'm not. So I played bartender and whipped up a batch and, as much as I wanted to, I didn't love it.  I think it was the mango, I don't know.  It leaves a funky aftertaste that I just couldn't get past.

  4. I love the little twist at the end of the video, lol. My daughter listens to that song incessantly, but that's the first time I've seen the video. Also, since I have a 10-year old daughter, I pretty much can't get through a day without having a Justin Bieber song stuck in my head. I'm ashamed to admit that sometimes they grow on me. Right now I'm reading the 2nd 50 Shades book, and as I'm reading I'm trying to picture who should play Grey (even though I didn't know they were making a movie). I don't know who that Ian guy is, but I like your suggestions.

  9. I've been looking for a good ab workout (I'm trying to avoid signing up for the gym!) I'm so going to try this! And I totally fell for the Biebers trick too. Ug. I'm so disappointed in myself!

  11. Good luck with the run!
    I can't get enough of the RHONJ. When I heard their new intros for this season I was like, dang!! Every single woman's words are like daggers. You can so tell they are all referring to one another.

  12. I totally had the same moment with the JB song! Talk about being annoyed when I realized it really was JB and not a prank of some sort. Oh well...I still like it. Just don't tell the hubs, I might have to sleep on the couch. :)

  16. I dropped the ball on the Color Run. They don't have an STL date, but they had a Kansas City date (2 in fact) and both sold out. Fingers crossed for an STL date next year.

    And Boyfriend, um I love it. Hate to admit it love it/borderline obsessed.

  17. Ahhhhh! I've told yo this before, but you are the COOLEST mom ever! Those two songs are the BEST! Kendall is a lucky girl to have you. :)

    The Color Run looks awesome also. I really want to try it. Good luck!

  19. 1. I am starting the ab challenge NOW!
    2. Fifty shades of Grey is like a train wreck. I can't stop reading it. I picture Grey being Ryan gosling or Chris hensworth!!!

  20. AWESOME post! Love it! Thinking about doing a color run here... they look like so much fun!

  21. I wanted to do a color run. Except...I hate stuff on me. Really hate it. I think it would bother me so much that I wouldn't enjoy it.

    I hate mango anything. Mango tastes like feet. Ew.

  24. I must try that ab challenge!!! I need something like that. I'm watching RHONJ and I love Caroline. When I saw Ashlee, I immediatly thought, "I can't believe Jacquline paid for that" because you know Ashlee doesn't have a J O B!
