Light Rail

Hello Everyone,

On February 16th, my cousin Courtney and I are going to take the Light Rail from McClintock and Ash to Indian School and Central to see how long it will take us to get to work. If anyone would like to join us....we will be meeting at the park-n-ride on McClintock and Ash around 6:30 a.m.

Then I plan to come home and go back to sleep!!!!

Twitter

Many of you might have noticed that I have added a new section to the right of my postings called "On The Go." Well my sister introduced me to a whole new world and level of blogging....I can make entries from my phone. All I do is text my message to a number and it will show up on my blog. Now I will be able to keep it updated!!!! Holla!!!!!

Free Samples

So the other day I went to Sam's Club to get a few things for the office and what did I see what I turned the corner?????? Free Samples!!!!! And what did I see when I got closer???? Bacon....as I was walking up there it was like angles were singing and we were running towards each other in a field full of flowers.

I was a little disappointed to find that it was Turkey Bacon, but it was still good.....so maybe not angels singing, but still the field full of flowers.

Yeah Right Jackie

So my friends from Wake-Up With Cosmo kept talking about these youtube "webisodes" called Jackie and Debra. They even had Debra on the show! So I decided to watch them, and I have to say I love it!!!! Yeah right Jackie!!!!!!

I Want My TV Back!!!!!!!!!!!

First, Go Cardinals!!!

Second, obviously I love Adam which means I deal with.....wait....support his love of sports. However, as a woman who didn’t sit down to watch a sports game until I met Adam, I have to voice that three sports games back to back on a Sunday is ridiculous. I had this whole plan to relax and catch up on my recorded shows (shout out to Ellen!), only to be pushed out of the way to watch the Eagles and Giants game. I understand it was a big game, but then it is was the Suns game, and then the Chargers game! When this happens at Adam’s house, I usually go into the bedroom and watch my shows there. That way we both are happy. But we were at my dad’s house and there is only one TV (dad’s house, dad’s rules, dad’s TV) so I kept my mouth shut and cleaned my room and bathroom.

But later that night, I turned the TV on to watch Desperate Housewives and walked away to get something only to come back to the couch to find Adam watching ESPN highlights of all the games he had just watched. He must have recognized the look on my face and put the remote down and went to the bedroom to watch TV And I would have gone to the bedroom to watch the show, I was doing laundry so it would have made sense, but Adam gave in so easily I wasn’t about to say anything.......hee hee

Third, I know this is a battle that I will lose, but I had to voice it…..I am now waiving my white flag….

What's Buzzin Cousin????

My cousins and I have a little joke that cousins are a gift from God and we are going to make shirts that say I "heart" Cousins. And I was thinking, there has to be a day to appreciate your cousins....and sure enough there is.....

Cousin's Day
When : July 24th
Cousin's Day honors your Aunt and Uncle's kids. They are those great kids who are likely close to your age, and endure the countless family get togethers with you. If it wasn't for cousins, these family events would be much, much longer.

This is a great day for your cousins. Now, hold on a minute. If you have cousins, that means your cousins have cousins. And, that's you! Therefore, today is your day,too.

Celebrating should be nothing but fun. Get together with your cousins. Hang out, just chill, or do anything you want to do...... as long as its a fun time spent with your cousins.

Rude Follow-Up

And just so everyone knows, my eyebrowns will be taken care of on Saturday....

Rude

Today Adam and I had lunch and he was sitting across from me and stared at me for a few minutes, then he asked "When is your next eyebrow waxing?" As Stephanie Tanner would say "How rude!!!!!" Even though I do have a little unibrow, I can't find my tweezers to keep it undercontrol....but don't think that I took it lying down. I responded with "Well your fingernails are longer than mine, and that is innapropriate!" Ha, I showed him!!!

Cosmo Prize Pack

Sheesh...it has been a while since I last blogged...my apologies. Well I did open my Cosmo Prize pack and they sent me a little mesh backpack that says Cosmo Sirius Radio, a water bottle that says the same thing, and compact that lights up when you open it. The oustide just says Cosmo. I have used the backpack once and I keep the compact in my purse. The light really comes in handy. I just washed the water bottle so I will start using that in a few days.

Unveiling

So my Cosmo Prize Pack came in yesterday and Adam is going to bring it to The Vine so I can open it in front of everyone!!!! I am so excited I can't wait.....

Good Going Down

On Sunday night, Alyssa, Andy, Lindsay, Adam, and I went to the Botanical Gardens to see the luminaries, but that didn't work out quite like we planned so we decided to head to Gallagher's for some dinner. There we each had a couple beers and I ordered the chili baked potato. Before I ordered it I took some advice from Lindsay's friend Lisa and requested a sample of the chili. It tasted good, so I went ahead with my order.

Little did I know that at 2 a.m. I would wake-up and throw-up the chili until 7 a.m.!!! 5 hours of throwing up....it was the worst......I did call in sick to work (sorry Jacob) because every hour I was throwing up!!! I even tried to drink some water and eat some pretzels because I didn't have any crackers and those didn't even stay down. The last time I threw up was yesterday evening.

I haven't been that sick in a long time. The last flu I had included nausea, but I never really threw-up.....

It is over.....

Adam shaved the mustache...something about being teased, looking like an idiot, having to meet with clients at work....all lame excuses to me.....so he lost!!!!!!!!! He only lasted two weeks!!!!!

Mustache Update

I will take another picture of Adam's mustache this week and post it for everyone to see it. It is starting to get full!!!! As of today, my birthday is when everyone seems to want Adam to shave his mustache....but since that date wasn't part of the original bet, he will shave it on New Year's Day. It is really funny to stare at him....I don't like it at all!!!!!

I Can Be Your Hero Baby....

Resemblance?????

Poll

So, As you can see I have added a poll to my blog about Adam's Mustache. He started the mustache the day after Thanksgiving. And everyone at the tailgate (well, me, Alyssa, Stephanie, and Lindsay) decided that it would be fun to see how full the stache got.....hence the poll. Please vote for when you think Adam should shave his stache....and it can't be a date earlier than 12/24....

I will upate the blog with pictures of the stache every few days so everyone will see the status....here is a picture from 12/1......

Vegas

Ok, so here is my trip to Vegas in a paragraph.....I landed in Vegas around 9 p.m and met up with my cousins and sister. When I got to the hotel room, I got ready and we all went to a club called Rok in New York, New York where we were staying.

Then Courtney and I walked the strip....

where I fell and hurt my knee.

Then we stopped and ate some pizza that was soooooooo good....and then called it a night.

The next morning we all headed down for breakfast where I had the best breakfast, bacon and fruit......My sister and her friend Alyssa had the biggest bloody mary....

Here is everyone smiling after a great meal....

After breakfast we walked the strip again, and I met up with the Green M&M, very cold in there.....

And then I met up with a stone man........

Then I was off back to Phoenix.....

Christmas Lists

Last year Adam and I only exchanged Christmas lists with ourselves as we were still only boyfriend/girlfriend we didn't want our families to buy for each other. But this year is different....so Adam has been introduced to the world of Christmas lists. For others, it is so easy to just right down a few things here and there and your family decides who is going to get you what....Well not in my world. And poor Adam didn't realize that there is a lot that goes into it...a list for Adam/mom & dad wright/sister wright, mom brown/sister brown/brother brown, and dad brown. You can't duplicate anything on the lists unless you want to make sure you double of them. Like put work pants on each list, but only list a movie on one of them. You try to incorporate something a little expensive on each list, because you don't know how each parent is going to buy. Is it the same price for everyone or the same amount of gifts for everyone. (that really only applies to my parents, not Adams).

And after all that, we do a Christmas drawing on the dad's side of the family...so you need to make sure that you keep at least three things on the side to ask for from them.

Now, everyone knows that I stress out about everything...and I am sure that when Alyssa reads this she won't agree with how hard core it is...but still....anyways, the point of the story is that now Adam is experiencing Christmas the way that I have my whole life.....4 of them....but now, we have 7!!!!!!

Vegas

It is coming....I have many things to blog about in regards to Vegas....so stay tuned....and I have a lot of hilarious pictures....
