Office Space Re-enactment Anyone??


So we have this new copier at work and at least once a week
I feel like going all Office Space on it!!

We had an old and outdated scanner/copier/printer and yes it had its problems but not like the new one. I want my old one back! Is that too much to ask?!?!

For everyone's enjoyment I wanted to insert the video of this scene from Office Space, but couldn't find an original version from a decent looking website source (don't want to fry the hard drive again). So y'all get a picture to enjoy instead.

SYTYCD Season 8: Top 20

So if you know me, you know how much I love dance. If you don’t know me, within 5 minutes of meeting me you’ll probably know how much I love dance.

I’ve been a huge fan of So You Think You Can Dance (SYTYCD) since it started since season 2 because I didn’t know about it during the first season.

Since there were 2 weeks of the Top 20 performers, I’ve decided to put them all into one post.

Week 1 Performances:
Favorite Dance – Performed by Sasha and Alexander, Choreographed by Travis Wall
Favorite Girl – Ryan (her performance was ok, but I’ve been rooting for her since last season when she just missed out so I’m a little biased right now)
Favorire Boy – Wadi (he seems to have a really good personality)

Week 2 Performances:
Favorite Dance – Performed by Miranda and Robert, Choreographed by Tabitha and Napoleon
Favorite Girl – Sasha (she may have a bit of an attitude, but she’s a fabulous dancer)
Favorite Boy – Tad (he’s reminding me of Joshua, winner of season 4)

Does anyone else watch? Who are your favorites so far?

Easter Egg


So you may notice I'm playing catch up on several of of my posts. But what's a girl to do if she has all this stuff to post from earlier in the year and wasn't blogging at the moment.

So I saw these giant plastic Easter eggs at Hobby Lobby and was like I have to get this to use as B's Easter basket! It came with two smaller eggs inside that were just perfect for the ideas I had.

So after I had the eggs stuffed with candy, movies and a flip book I made at a financial conference (if you ever get a chance to make a flip book I suggest doing it...it's a lot of fun...this was my fourth one...the other three were at the Rodeo) I decided the outside needed a little face lift. So I got out my white paint out and went to town. However, I suggest if you are going to paint an egg to put it in something stable so it doesn't fall and get all over you (I set this one in a trash can to let it dry after it fell on me ha ha). To finish it off, I tied some teal tulle around it. And there you go.

Bad Teacher


You know how they say "You should always listen you your momma"? Well I should have. This was just bad...

I was excited to see it because the previews looked funny and I thought JT would be showcasing his comedic chops...sadly I was mistaken. :(

I probably should have done a little more research through reviews, but the ones I saw gave it an un-squished tomato and B's friend gave it a thumbs up and he tends to like the movies we like.

Well we don't know what these people were thinking?!?! I should have listened to my mom when I told her what I was doing this afternoon and she was like "oh...I heard it got terrible reviews"

Oh well...if you're a Jason Segel fan he's actually pretty funny in the movie...I'm even going to go as far and say he was my favorite...ha ha.

Did anyone else see it? What did y'all think?

Cest La Vie



This is another card I made just to make using my Cricut machine...ha ha. It was the the showcased DIY card in the Wall Decor and More cartridge booklet. This was also my first time trying to use ribbon as decoration. The ribbon I used came from a Godiva chocolate box that I just happened to save for once and I think it goes well with this card. One of the coolest things about this card, I think, is how it opens. It folds down instead of opening like a regular card. Kind of cool huh?
