Living out loud in the Carolinas

fun things

i love the website jenny pointed out where you can build yourself in legos. so cute.

beauty product update i’m in love with this new stuff i found. i’m not sure if it’s a new product or just new to me. it’s john frieda’s beach blonde. it smells yummy like coconut and makes your hair thick like how it feels when you’re at the beach and you don’t wash the ocean water out of your hair.

3 obsessions

the other day on bob & sheri they were talking about people’s 3 obsessions. that if you think about it everyone has 3 things that they think about a lot or obsess over. these are not priorities like your family etc. and they’re usually pretty silly. i think they are right. i was thinking about mine and they are: the mail, beauty products (including lotions, cosmetics, hair products), and lip balm. let me explain. the mail: i have to check it. if jon checks it he sorts through it and decides what’s junk and tosses it. this might mean i could miss out on a great sale somewhere or a cool catalog to leaf through. or he’ll check it and leave it somewhere and i won’t get to see it for days. drives me nuts. don’t know why. beauty products: i have them all. or at least it feels like it. i’m such a sucker. i’ll totally buy new hair stuff when i have no less than 34,097 bottles, jars etc of hair stuff in my drawer or under the sink already with approximately 1 inch of product left in them. i don’t know why i don’t just throw it out or better yet, use it all before buying a new thing. lip balm: this isn’t included in the beauty products section because it’s not about buying new lip balm, it’s about having it handy. i have a tube in literally every room in the house where i hang out. i have 2 tubes in my purse, 1 in my car, 1 on my desk at work. you get the idea. i never wear something without pockets unless i know i can get to my lip balm. my mother in law even gave me this tiny beaded ivory purse that was just big enough to hold a tube for our wedding. it’s a sickness i tell ya.
