rewind, now play:
for 26 weeks, on any given sunday and the occasional monday my other half would politely dismiss himself from existence and take off to the wonderful far away land of the NFL. ( side bar - anyone else have the issue - hes missing in action and then super moody if fantasty didn't go well or if his team lost? - NEED that feedback that i'm not ALONE! )
now that being said, i'd makes jokes and say that he was entering back into working society after super bowl but in case you've been living under a rock for the last 2 weeks, the giants won the super bowl. and well we are giants fans, so this was MAJAAAAA! we were kinda on a high for a few days after! but (TYPICALLY) shortly after his return, i'd escape - sorry babe, but fashion is my thing! oh the irony, the second he returns i DIP out and get all caught up in fashion weeks glory! 7 days just isn't long enough ( if i may say so myself! ) *and since there is so much to cover, fashion week will have a separate wrap up blog ( MONDAY )- with trends, polls and personal favorites!
and the grammy goes to:
the grammys are about music. you love it, you feel it in your bones, brings you up when your down, ya dance to it, sing it in the shower/ in the car and that's whats best about it! we like what we like and that's final. can't knock all genres of music just because it isn't our own "personal taste". now i'll be honest and admit my i pod has everything from SKRILLEX to the SMASHING PUMPKINS to JOSH GROBAN, BRITNEY to GUETTA to the BEATLES and then some. my personal music library is vast because that is how i like it... so before you read the next comments you will know, i'm a lover not a hater! that being said, i'll go on with my personal taste! FAVE PERFORMANCES WERE FROM: BRUNO MARS - TAYLOR SWIFT - SIR PAUL - CHRIS BROWN - GUETTA - FOO FIGHTER PLUS...
ALL HAIL ADELE. the girl is amazing, as we've all already known. but something about her being gone for MONTHS and wondering "well was she back, yes in body but like her voice too?! hell yeah she was! everything about her is humble and pure, no gimmicks, no costumes - just pure beauty, talent and class!
speaking of class, or lack thereof... that sacrilegious display by nikki minaj was probably about the last of her i'll ever enjoy. yes, her rhymes are catchy but that DISPLAY was BEYOND. yes, lady gaga pushes an envelope and she is crafty and music is an art form - but that demonic presence performance was shameful and CLASS-LESS!
just ONE more mention: katy perry - whom i've always enjoyed just a little bit, def didn't do it for me. don't take a great year of amazing singles and touring to make a public announcement about your feelings on your divorce at the GRAMMYS! i hate to say, she would have been better off releasing "part of me" on youtube the next day, even better perform it on LENO! LAME. dirty laundry is meant for the bathroom floor - not a public stage!
requests lines are open:
the journey to 100 "LIKES" was indeed a success. i am very humbled, to say the least! sure you can "like or follow" anything you choose to on facebook & twitter, you'll read any news story on one of billions of media outlets you want to and then somehow you wander over to my little blog! for some comic relief, a taste of fabulous and just catching up with whats happening in the world of an everyday girl. i am touched and as i take on all my new obstacles and expansions with my writing, this growing crowd means so much to me! doesn't seem like enough, but simply said ~ THANK YOU, EVERYONE!
that means, there's contest underway, why a contest you ask? because i've been VERY lucky. you (the fans) have given such amazing support to my endeavor and brought so many new followers to my blog. its just seems right to give back! so i want you all to share your BEST KEPT SECRETS! open up and give us your best beauty, shopping or even cooking tips! any and all special tricks up your sleeves? c'mon, i know there are tons you could share! check out the fanpage for full details and send em' in.
DEADLINE FOR ENTRY - 2/20 @ 2PM.
too for me to keep up:
i've had this ASS kicking cold for about 4 days now, losing my mind a bit and then on saturday: i lost my sense of taste/smell from all this congestion. it's not pretty, i've been attached to a box to tissues and vicks vapor rub for too long! i am so behind in not only writing, but laundry, my shows and LIFE in general. TOO MUCH CRAY FOR MY DAYS!
i feel as if everything's been flying past me and i'm barely able to make a list of what i've missed, let alone attend it! got me to thinking about this article i read once in a magazine... am i suffering from "FOMO". FEAR OF MISSING OUT - i'm going to be doing a huge article about life and juggling and this said "FOMO" if anyone is interested please e-mail me, i'd like to spotlight some other everyday gals (maybe even guys) to widen the perspective.
i apologize for my delay on all the catchings up, even though i did leave you with a bunch of goodies today - i have GREAT things for the coming days... new stuff in the works, as i try to get back in the groove of things!
stay healthy dolls! <3 . :)
