Tuesday Tidbits

- I put this on Facebook, but I've added a new goal to my deployment goals list. I want to run a 5K sometime this year. I'm sure for some this may seem like a paltry goal, but I'm not a runner. So, it's a good goal for me.

-Nothing hits the spot like a snack of Honey Bunches of Oats with Almonds

-Watching Vienna in the audience of Dancing in the Stars made me want to yak. Jake...you are dead to me!

-I'm ramping up my efforts once again to learn Italian. My goal is to work on it for 30 minutes a day. My Italian friend, Roberta, will also be used in this goal. I actually got a few more Italian grammar books at the library yesterday and the guy checking out the books to me started rattling off in Italian. I picked up the book, pointed at it and said, "I'm not there yet."

- Forever 21 advertises this as a shirt on it's website. I believe that is a dress, because if it is a shirt, why is she not wearing pants?



-Do you guys ever check out the Awkward Family photos website? I know I've mentioned it on here before, but if you don't look at it, you should. I found this little gem today on there.



It's obvious they are on a cruise. My question is, what made her think that was appropriate evening attire? I'm honestly curious as to the thought process behind that decision.

I didn't watch DWTS last night, but I can imagine seeing Vienna in the audience would also make me want to upchuck.

Woah about that family photo of the couple on the cruise. WOAH.

I have GOT to go to that Awkward Family Photos website. That's hilarious. I get the feeling that Jake is very fake. I think he knows what girls wants and I found him overly cheesy where he would lovingly smile too often at people he had no connection with. Don't get me wrong, I can't stand Vienna and I was all for Tenley but there's just something off about Jake.

Oh, Awkward Family Photos in all its glory. I will never understand....

Good luck on the Italian! (I used to actually know "good luck" in Italian, but I forgot...so you got it in English :))

Hey girl I'm a new follower of yours and OMG! I'm going to have to check out that website that is hilarious..

Emily said...

You know you want that blue dress ;) ha That shirt/dress thing looks like PJ's almost.

Megan said...

Haha, that is a great photo!

I want to run a 5k as well! However, I've made my goal for sometime in the next three years, so I've got time!

OMG, that photo is so stinkin funny!

Crazy Shenanigans-JMO said...

Did you think it odd that Gia was sitting with her in the audience? I thought it was weird.

AND OMG what is up that dress on the cruise!?!?

Jen said...

That dress is awful!! I laughed so hard about it for some reason! Im going to check out that website for sure!

Good luck with the italian!

Caitlin said...

That dress is just.... wow. I love Awkward Family Photos. Have you gone to texts from last night? Also quite funny.

Anonymous said...

Oh my GOSH! :x That photo is awful, awful, awful.

HAHAHA LOVE that website!! Apparently SHE thought she was on dancing with the stars, the carnival cruise edition.

As far as a 5k goes, you can totally do it!! Here is a great "couch to 5k" program:

You'll run 3 times a week and alternate walking and jogging for several weeks. My best piece of advice would be to REGISTER for one in 9-10 weeks and then you'll have to stick to the plan. Go for it!!!!

Good luck!!!

I have no idea who Vienna and Jake are.

And holy moly! I thought some of my party girl tops were inappropriate!

Tickled Pink Mandy said...

might be the funniest pic i have seen in a while... thanks for the laugh! i would have peed my pants if i saw her in person

WOW!! That woman's dress is ummm...WOW!! Haha :)

I think the 5k is a fantastic goal!! I don't think I could even do that. You'll do amazing!!

Mira said...

OMG what made this woman think she can actually wear that dress? Not even Pamela Anderson would look good in it.

Regarding 5k goal, I wish I could do that!

Emily of Boston said...

Where is that woman's underwear? No respectable female would wear something so low (and high!!) cut that there isn't room to hide even the skimpiest panties underneath...

I disapprove. Severely. :(

Sarah said...

Omg that is disgusting. Why?! I just don't understand why you'd do that to yourself!?! And to everyone else who has to look at you too! Save it for the bedroom please.
