Fancy!!

These are some things that tickle my fancy!







These guys make me laugh! I never get sick of them =]





Cardigans! It is true, Mr. Rogers was on to something here! You can spruce up a regular old t shirt by throwing on one as well as add another layer to your look. When your office runs the air conditioning all year round you learn to love them!



FUNFETTI CAKE!
It is DELICIOUS! I love rainbow chip frosting too! I wonder if I can use this for my wedding cake...



Surly Girl
This is a bar in Columbus. If you haven't been here, now you have a reason to visit! I just had the pleasure of going here on Friday. They have an awesome menu that is vegetarian friendly and also includes a spicy peanut butter and banana sandwich(which I ordered, YUMMY!). Also it has beer brewed by women! I hope I get to go back soon!


Hiking Boots
I can't wait to start hiking again =]



Cheap Happy Hours on Fridays!
-Need I say more?!?!


Mario Party Video Games
I love the min games and the fact you don't have to have a lot of skill to play. But boy does it make me mad sometimes....



Ida Maria- I like you so much better when your naked!
A great song that I cannot get out of my head!


Soccer
It is warm out so we can play outside again =] It is an awesome workout, plus I actually understand the game now.


Shopping in My Closet
I like going through my closet putting together new outfits. Almost as fun as shopping and a lot cheaper!


Staying off the phone/computer...
It is something I am working on but, I save myself so much time at night when I am not in front of the computer constantly. Plus I spend most of my work day on both, it is nice to get a break!

And now for things that are not so fancy...
Two and a Half Men---> best comedy in America?? really?!?!
People angry @ Obama...He didn't start the fire!
Dick Cheney-if we ignore him, he will go away...
Grown women STILL obsessing about Twilight and who are VERY serious about it...
The media's obsession over OctoMOM. Maybe if we ignore her, she will go away...
The LAME finale of John and Kate Plus 8...look for the spin-off next season John Minus 9...

March MADNESS!

My name is Amanda and I am a bracket-ohlic. (That sounded so much cooler in my head). It is true I am one of those people you probably hate who is completely obsessed with my bracket. I started out strong and now I am starting to fade. It is disappointing, but I still love the tournament, the heartbreaks and big breaks. I used not care about college basketball so much, until I started making brackets, now I am invested. You ma see me getting angyy and even yelling at the TV. I have had yet to shed any tears over a loss or win for that matter!




















How is your bracket doing??


On to more Madness!!
SO lately I have cut back on shopping to save for the "BIG DAY"* but I am pleased to announce more and more designers are starting to design for stores where WE can shop. I was pleased when Vera decided to do Kohl's, but I am even more excited that Alexander McQueen is jumping on board. I can only hope DVF is next :)


And Even MORE Madness...
There is a guy that goes to my gym.(I promise this gets better) I see him almost everytime I am there. He looks like Gene (Yes bandanna and everything) from Wet Hot American Summer.** There are signs all over the gym prohibiting cell phone use; however, he continues to talk on, not one, but two phones throughout his workout. The weirdest thing about this is that he carries his TWO exact same phones around and talks on them while he works out. Very weird and of course it drives me nuts! I know he sees the signs, but I guess Gene is above the law! I had to get that off my chest, I feel much better now!













*Less than 6 months until the Wedding! I am super excited and I hope you are too!


**If you have not seen this movie, you really should. My reference would be like 30 times funnier...

TWEET

I admit when I first got Twitter, I wasn't that into it. But now I am OBSESSED. Dan got me to make an account awhile ago, and now I cannot stay away from it. Twitter is pretty much like a facebook status, in which you can let the world what is going on with you in 140 characters or less. I find it much more fun and less time consuming than Facebook. Granted you can't look at people's favorite movies, pictures, or pages plagued with useless applications, but you can get a quick tidbit of what is going on with them. I also love Twitter because you can follow just about anyone-including Joel McHale, Britney Spears, Barack Obama (and the list goes on).
I am wondering if my favoritism towards conciseness comes from my training at Capital Law School...
Anyways, I am not the only one who thinks Twitter is they way to go as far as networking sites are concerned. Facebook is going to change their format to copy them and there are more people tweeting than Facebook stalking....
If you don't have an account, make one and let me know what you think. I admit it did take me awhile to warm up to it, but as more of my friends join and as I find interesting people, I cannot stay away.
So give it a try and TWEET your heart out!

Lousy Smarch Weather!

Well, I made a full recovery and am up and kicking once again. I am going to blame my sinuses and the ever changing weather on that one!

Feb was a good month for me! My best friends from college came to visit as well as my best friend from Milwaukee. It was great to see them but now I am reminded of how much I really do miss them.




There really isn't a whole lot else going on here. Dan and I are thinking of Iceland for honeymoon. I am actually super excited about it!

Ok so here is my rant for the day-maybe not so much a rant but a great idea...I think the people that constantly talk just to hear themselves, and constantly whine so the world feels sorry for them while they are at work, should have to listen to themselves all day long through headphones and hear how ridiculous they are so I don't have to....There I said it!
