The Seasons, They Are A'changin....

Don't you just hate it when you wake up in a bad mood? Seriously, why does that happen? What was it during my R.E.M. cycle that pissed me off?

It could be because the seasons are changing. We've had an unseasonably warm fall here in St. Louis and now that the temperature is starting to dip a little, I find myself resenting the outdoors more and more. (Although let's be honest, even on the nicest of days in the Lou I'm usually indoors asleep or wishing I were.) It gets dark here at 4pm now, which makes this already sleepy girl even sleepier. Thank goodness I have a 6 minute drive home from work - otherwise I would worry that my heavy eyelids would cause pile ups on the highway.

My family has been in talks about what we're going to do this year for Christmas. What does everyone want, should we put a ceiling on the amount we spend this year, or should we just limit it to a certain number of gifts? I'm really only wanting one thing this year... help with a downpayment for a new car. I love the car I have now (a VW Jetta) but the lease is almost up! So what do I want next? I've been considering one of these in a bright white (used obviously), or maybe one of these bad boys ... except for I hate the little kid in those commercials.

So that hurts this car's chances a little. He just seems like such an a-hole to me.

My friend sent me this link to a YouTube video last week and I kept wanting to open it but not having time. I finally opened it last night and almost wet myself laughing. Be careful where you open it! The language is a tad rough in spots.

Can we talk about the "poof" hairstyle that girls have been rocking lately? There are subtle examples of it that are flattering. Case-in-point:

(Yes this is bias because Jennifer Aniston can do no wrong in my book. Shutup.)

But poofs like the ones below give me the urge to purge:

Not cute! Come on girls! Less is more! Snooki you could probably take that lesson and apply it to your entire life, but I'm not judging. Lord knows I've made some "hair don'ts" in my days. Take today for example. I showered, towel dried, and applied gel, and yet somehow it still looks like a brown bird's nest. And not even the cute, well-put-together kind. The kind that you see and you're like "Awww.. that bird must only have one wing or be partly blind or something to have made a nest like that... poor thing". But here I am a fully capable human being with 2 hands and full eyesight and I still have this going on up top

BUT... if you ever catch me walking around lookingl ike a member of the Conehead family, please intervene immediately.

Happy Veteran's Day to all of our men and women who have fought for our country! God bless every single one of you, and thank you from the bottom of my heart!!
