spotted: don't cry for me argentina...

item: weepy little lady

location: 'lonely hearts" thrift store

price: $4.95

i'm kinda kicking myself that

this little darling is not staring at me

perched a top my fireplace

let's hope she goes to a good home

where she will be properly appreciated

today is memorial day...

...will i be out on a lake or at the beach....HECK NO!

i'll be livin' it up big at STAGES

doin' some TRAILER PARK notes and hangin' with the gang

turns out, the theatre industry does not recognize holidays...hmmmmph

no doubt we will have a great time, though

in fact,

i've been holed up in a dark, frigid, theatre for the past two days

but despite that, i have major heartburn from laughing so hard

THESE ARE THE BEST OF DAYS, THESE ARE THE WORST OF DAYS...

anywho

in honor of memorial day and my trailer park peeps...(fab pics coming soon)

enjoy this short video brought to my attention by sister sarah

some girls don't like boys like me...

aww but some girls do!

once upon a time in a place called IDAHO

i grew up

i was a summer child there with my cousins and siblings

among the potato plants

and alfalfa fields

running amuck every chance we got

oh, what ridiculousness occurred...every summer...all summer

those were the days, people!

while i was driving around today i spotted this truck (pictured above)

it made me giggle...how ridiculous, yet brilliant...rent a husband!

not sure if it was me giggling or the sight of a trailer but my mind drifted to a summer memory

***

one night during a very exciting game of {sardines} we all ended up in the back of a horse trailer

we were waiting for the last person to find us

and the anticipation was literally forcing me to giggle uncontrollably

yes, i was THAT girl

i blew our cover

we were found

game. over.

even now, i can't help but smile thinking about everyone getting all ten flavors of salty

what a funny memory...and what a funny business

i wonder if ALL the requests the "rent-a-husbands" get are legit

i'd be willing to bet they have some pretty great stories of their own...

aint it good, aint it right...

that you are with me here tonight!

this picture does no justice for this beauty, of a car

i literally couldn't take my eyes off it

AND i know you aren't gonna believe me BUT moments before, i saw two identical cars...rivals in style but far superior in color...purple to be exact

i just love my h-town!

**you MUST listen to {this} while viewing picture**

when days were simpler...

{that 5pm hour is quite the mystery, isn't it}

i am currently scanning ALL my old images trying to consolidate life

these two nuggets of goodness are too good not to share...with the world

crazy pants

YO HAIR

i love these girls!

every boy needs...

a great pair of shorts

pickles and priorities

if you can get past all the bleeeeeeps, this clip is semi-brilliant

i'm starting my christmas list early this year
