All I Want For Christmas Is....

My boyfriend. Seriously, he is the best boyfriend in the entire world. Just when I think he can't do anything else romantic, he surprises me on Christmas. All his gifts were "Love" themed, so every gift had a gift card that said, "Love...and whatever the gift was"

First up, Love...Heels

Then there was "Love...Comfort (panties, slippers, etc). Love...Songs (mixtape he created), Love...Abstract (Pic of himself holding a sign he made using magazine letters that says "You Must Love...Me), Love...Actually (Pic of us), Love...Wine (wine rack). You get the picture. It was absolutely romantic and I will never forget this Christmas. EVER!

R.I.P Brittany Murphy

Many people remember Brittany Murphy from movies such as Clueless, Girl Interrupted, 8 Mile, and Just Married, and the voice of Luann from King of the Hill,  just to name a few. She was only 32 years old.... such a sad day...5 days before Christmas too.

Not So Fresh and So Clean

I have been debating if I should write this post or not. It's definitely not for the faint of hearts, however I think it's absolutely necessary. Let me begin by saying, if you don't want to get disgusted, stop reading immediately.

I warned you... since you're continuing to read, don't be mad at me if you're grossed out for the rest of the day. First let me begin by saying I'm normally all for my women and love to stick up for them and have their backs, etc. But today, ladies, I am calling you out! Fella's you may be called out at a later date, but today this is for the ladies.

As I said, I was debating on if I should even post this, but after today, I knew it had to be done, especially since it happens at LEAST 3 times a week; I will walk into the ladies restroom at work, and it always smells in there....and no, I'm not referring to poop, but more like dirty vag! Especially period vag (yes, insert gag here).  I know exactly what it's like to have your period every single month, however there is NO excuse for your cooter to smell. I realize blood is gushing out of your vagina but I shouldn't be able to smell it and tell that you're on your rag.

This is NO joke, I used to work with a girl (we won't say any names) and I could honestly smell when she was on her period...and don't get me started on the days she decided to wear skirts! At my new place of business (again, no names will be mentioned) I will walk into the bathroom and I can smell the scent of used tampons...now fuck, I have to deal with this shit every month as well, but I sure as hell won't allow my cooter to stink!

I do NOT want to hear any type of excuses, you should know better. I mean damn, you have your period every month (minus those "oops" months) since you were what, 14? All I'm saying, is handle that. I shouldn't have to walk in and smell your cooter. Gag!

Here are a few things that will help in that area:

First and foremost, just wash down there when showering. Summer's Eve has a feminine wash that helps with bacteria and smells...use it! I promise, it will be your best friend.

Every time you change your tampon or pad, wipe your cooter with one of these handy individually wrapped, easy to throw in your purse so you always have one with you, Summer's Eve wipes.

If you don't have Summer's Eve wipes, any wipe will do.... Like the Charmin Wipes, or even a baby wipe will work! Just use whatever you need to use to get the job done! It will help freshen you up.

They also make these things called panty liners, change them as often as necessary. They will help catch any blood that may fall from your tampon and instead of falling onto your panties, they will go onto this panty liner and you can change it...seriously, try it. Please.

Last and definitely not least, use soap. I love the Caress Tahitian Renewal but please use whatever kind you like, just use it!!!

Lastly, try spraying some of your perfume on the outside of your jeans or skirt.... it will help

I just found out one of the guys I used to work for, just wrote a book called, Eves of Destruction, by Roy Berelowitz. I am super happy for him. Go, Roy! Get your copy on Amazon.

Da Plane Da Plane....

Back in 2005, Taiwanese airline EVA Air painted one of their airplanes with Hello Kitty and her friends. The redesign extended into the interior of the plane including boarding passes, baggage tags, dining utensils and flight attendant uniforms. There are now 2 Hello Kitty planes that fly from Taipei to Tokyo and Fukuoka.

Christmas Has Officially Begun

It's no surprise I love Christmas, it was only a few years back that I used to stress about it all and walk around being all humbugish, but then one day I told myself that I had to remember what the holiday is really about. I made myself stop and enjoy it and that's what I've been doing ever since and let me tell you, it's amazing, the decorations, food, music, family... it just all warms my heart. Hopefully you too will take a moment to enjoy it... if you need help, let me know :)

Here is a few pics of our house all done up.

This pic doesn't do the tree justice.... it's gold and red...so pretty


The stockings hung by the chimney with care...


And the newest addition to our home, I got this little town set at the dollar store. I was able to get all 60 pieces for $36!!! So amazing... I wish this was a real town so I could live there.

Randomness....

Today I was out running mad errands...Grocery Shopping, Target, Christmas shopping, etc. and here are just a few weird things I saw on my journey.

This guy had this dog kennel attached to the back of his bike... and there was a big ass dog in the back of it. Was pretty hilarious!


And then in the parking lot at Target while I was waiting in the car for Jennifer Lopez's, Louboutins song to end, I saw this little old lady who had to be about 100 years old try to park her car. Although the parking job doesn't look too bad in the pic, it did take her about 4 tries to park it all the while I was laughing and praying that she wouldn't side swipe my car!!!! LMAO

Kobe!!!

This was from last nights win over the Miami Heat.... it was almost over for us until the Black Mamba himself did what he does best!! Lakers!

The little girl screaming at around the 19 second mark gets me every time...Cracks me up. Why is she yelling like that?

On Your Mark, Get Set. Go...

Nearly 100 shoe addicts--and potential masochists--have advanced to the National Stiletto Championship race in Paris. The finalists made it through the regional rounds and are prepping for the competition, which will be held Friday night in the old stock exchange building.

Sarenza.com came up with the idea for the race, and it will give the winners 3,000 euros worth of shoes. The race will take the form of a three-part, 180-meter relay and runners must wear at least three-inch heels. There are 32 teams participating and the Red Cross will be on hand in case of injury.

The 2008 winners, team "Talk To My Foot (Parle A Mon Pied)" will be competing again this year, a trio comprised of a TV journalist, a psychologist and a lawyer.

"We all love shoes and we love having fun," journalist Dorothee Kristy told the AFP. "The only training we do is running to catch a train or a bus every day."

Forever 21 to Launch New Make-Up Line

Forever 21 is expanding their brand with the introduction of Love & Beauty, the new Forever 21 cosmetic line. Forever 21 spokeswoman Kirstin Nagle said, "It made sense as a next step. If you think of our customer, she loves being on-trend and, to complete her look, we had everything in our stores except the cosmetics piece."
The range will cover all the makeup bases, with products for lips, eyes, nails, face, fragrance, and assorted tools and accessories like cosmetic bags, tweezers and brushes. And, in keeping with Forever 21's signature pricing, nothing costs more than $10. But, don't let that fool you into thinking that the makeup isn't of good quality; Nagle says, "We are using a lot of the vendors that are making prestige cosmetics. It is the same quality as prestige vendors, but at Forever 21 prices."

D&G Push the Envelope Again

And I love it..... watch the threesome action go on.

Somebody Stop Me...

I can't tell you enough how much I love the holidays...the food, family, festivities. I think some people forget to stop and smell the poinsettias when it comes to this time of year. I was in Target today and I saw this little girl in the Christmas isle and she was giggling and oooing and awwwwing, and it put a smile on my face. My poor bf doesn't stand a chance with all the activities I want to do this year (LOL). Anyway, here are a few things that I bought today:

Seriously, Big Lots and the Dollar Store are the best inventions ever!!!!


So ugly, yet so lovely... I couldn't pass up this gold jacket I found at Forever 21 (Merry Christmas to me)


I've been looking for a real light purple polish....picked one up at Sally's today
