Better late than never, right??
1. So, last Thursday on SYTYCD, Gev was eliminated. While that was going on with him, I realized something… he looks VERY much like Scarlet Johansson! Seee….


Similar, right? Something about the eyes/nose/lips combo and placement. I don’t know- I don’t think it’s just me… but, maybe I’m crazy!
2. Style note about my bad self: I’m obsessed with shirts that have “hangies” [a la my headshot and the large bow!]. I do neck hangies, belt hangies, waist hangies, sleeve hangies… if it has a hangie, I’ve probably picked it up and tried it on at least!
3. Wedding trend I loooove [inspired by Mama Mia and the fab, low-key home-spun event featured within]: mismatched chairs! I loove how in the movie, all of the chairs are dark wood, but they’re funky, urban, different, totally eclectic. It makes me want to just buy random sets of chairs to have for occasions like this! Super into that look.
4. Ugh. My biggest complaint right now is like my Achilles Heel!!! My hair. My long, almost-lucious, almost-mermaid-like hair. I have no idea what to do with it. Ever. Argh!! BUT, I’m sticking to my commitment and will continue to grow at LEAST until after my anniversary, in September!
5. Fave Josh-ism: well… I’m a tattooed lady. Not a LOT of tattoos, but a few. I got all of my tattoos between 18 and 19 and I’m not ashamed of them all but Josh, when we married, didn’t have ANY. He always talked about getting some but could never decide [being a musician, the "scene" was full of people who had just whatever tattooed on their bodies, but he wanted something significant to him...]. I told him that if he didn’t have a tattoo by 25, he was officially “over the tattoo hill” in my book and shouldn’t get any. So, the year he turned 25, he got me this for Valentine’s day:
MELT! I loove it. It’s his one and only tattoo. As you can see, he’s still committed to wearing the ring over it, but it was the BEST Valentine’s ever [especially seeing as our tradition for V-day does NOT include gifts of a serious nature...]. Best part: he let me pick the font!
6. Speaking of my fave dancing program above, I officially have a crush on Tabitha Numa!! I LOVE that she’s soo preppy when she’s on as a judge, but when she choreographs, she’s so urban and funky and drrty! It’s my fave. Totally a woman after my own heart. If I was still dancing, I’d be a hipper hopper. Fo shiz.
7. Re: miPhone
Yip, yip… yeeray!!
8. Oh, oh. This is my fave, and it’s mostly for my sister… a while back I came across [on late, late, late night TV] “The World’s Ugliest Dog Competition”. I had to Tivo. I did. And wow… just getting around to watching it, is crazy. I had no idea God made such creatures. Some of the “runners up”:
And the winner, who takes the cake, is Sam:
Give me the willies!!!!
9. Random Amanda-ism: Q-Tips are probably my favorite product ever invented. Ever. I clean my ears like twice a day [one dry clean, then another "dry off" clean after showers and hair washing], PLUS I use like 3 a day to touch up my makeup. It’s neurotic, but I’m so into them.
10. Lastly, my pet peeve [trying to be more positive here, people, and not make a "hate list" on my blog!!]. Well, it’s myself! I allow myself to go WAY too long, always, without getting my eyebrows done. Luckily, last night, my FAVE esthetician Heather Eaton, took care of my brow-zillas:
Back to my fierceness!
I have SO SO much to blog, it feels like. I’m really excited to give you guys some GREAT pro pics, some more wedding fun, some detail ideas, more more more! Hopefully this weekend will be full of wedded bliss!!
