Deep Thoughts for Your Monday

via Kate Spade

Well, helloooooooo there. How are things in your world today? Cold, yes?

I searched the deepest recesses of my brain today for blog post ideas and alls I came up with was this stupid list of random thoughts. (Yes, I said 'alls'- I'm Joe Pesci today),

I think I'll put the above sentence on a T-shirt. It's so brief and poignant, you know?


1. We went to Oklahoma City this past weekend to visit Stephen's dad and see the Trans-Siberian Orchestra show. I got zero pics. Not one single photo. But trust me when I say, it was a rockin' good time. And Oklahoma is not nearly as barren and flat as I once thought it was ; ) Ok, it's still as flat as I remember, however, they do have great shopping!

2. I saw this little post about holiday cocktail party etiquette on Kate Spade's site and it made me chuckle. I was reminded of the Christmas party we attended last year with my then-fiance (now my hubs). His co-worker's wife had enjoyed a few too many adult beverages and decided to put up a chair for herself next to the BRAND NEW CEO who had flown in, just for the party. Next thing we know, she's bent over his shoulder asking him if he'd ever played Dance, Dance Revolution and if he liked LMFAO.

This guy is like, 50-some odd years old, went to an Ivy League school, lived in Italy and worked for GE for years before he got moved to my husband's company. He's esteemed and serious and reads the NY Times. And probably wipes his behind with dollar bills.

Understandably, my husband's coworker was appalled at the behavior of his wifey-poo. I, however, was elated : ) Love a good awkward moment.

3. I'm giving serious consideration to buying the DCC uniform I spoke of Friday. Of course I'll have to get spray tanned and paint some abs on my stomach. And maybe get breast implants. And grow longer legs...

4. I saw a tweet from a girl on Friday saying that she'd spent $400 on high-end wrapping paper.

5. "So Leslie, what are your thoughts on spending $400 on high end wrapping paper?", you ask.

Oh, you mean that stuff that gets ripped off and tossed in the can after the 10 seconds of actual present opening time is completed? If you have to ask, you really don't know me that well.

6. I'm loving that Tim Tebow is shutting his critics down. Goes to show that sometimes prayer can do wonders, even for hopeless NFL teams with formerly no chance of going to the playoffs.

7. I also love that Tom Brady got into a screaming fight with the offensive coordinator yesterday. I love a good hollering match.

8. I really am a girl, I swear. I just appreciate the Holy Sport known as Football.

9. I want a pen pal. Anyone interested in bringing handwritten letters back from the dead, too?

I'm stopping at 9, because 10 is too predictable.

And I'm a loose cannon like that.

Be blessed, lovelies-
