Two Truths and a Lie

Anyone ever play two truths and a lie? We used to play it in college as an icebreaker at the start of the year.

Care to play with me? Ok, I'll start. Guess which are the truth and which is the lie.

1. I was voted best smile my senior year of high school

2. I broke into a local baseball stadium to take pictures and run around the bases

3. I bought my wedding dress for $75.00

Date Night Attire

So....thanks for all the comments yesterday about friends. I know I do posts like that every few months, but I just HATE not making friends. Makes me feel like a big 26-year-old loser and that is not a good feeling.

Also, thanks for the scrapbook site suggestions. I've already favorited the sites you suggested and also ordered a few...ok a lot of items.

In a couple of weeks Sean's company is having a couple's night out at a local Vicenza restaurant. I don't think it's mandatory, but it's mandatory. If you know the military then you know what I'm talking about.

Anyway, I'm searching my Forever 21 laden closet to find something to wear.

The front runner right now is this:



I like the black and white with the contrasting red shoes. What do you think? Also what should I do with my hair with a dress like that? I put it in a braid simply to get it out of my way, but was thinking perhaps a loose bun. That is if I can pull off the loose bun. I suck at doing my own hair.

(To forewarn you, if you click the pic and make it big, then please excuse my slightly sunburned nose and farmer's tan. Thanks)

How to Win Friends and Influence People

I think I need to read this book. Seriously.

I need a refresher course on how to make female friends.



I don't know what the problem is since I've become married and been moving around, but I have the hardest time making female friends. I've met a couple of awesome ladies (Lindsay and Sara) and unfortunately they don't live anywhere close to me at the present.

Some of the problem right now stems from the fact that I'm being very selfish with my time. If I'm not working then I want to spend time with Sean since I know he's deploying later in the year. I don't know if many of you know this, but I can be extremely shy. Usually the shyness comes out amoung women. Don't ask me why, it just does. Other than that though it's like I don't know the steps to go through to meet or even make new friends.

Have any of you ever struggled with this?

I Love My Job

Any job that allows me to do this:



Or This:



While I'm at work is OK in my book.

(Don't worry...my boss thanked me for the laugh)

P.S. I scared the crap out of some soldiers in the XBox room

Scrapbookin' Fiend

I've been working on my college scrapbook off and on for the past few days.

Yes I graduated from college three years ago. No I still do not have my scrapbook done. I'm just now getting done with freshman year.

Do you guys have any suggestions on good places to order scrapbook supplies? I know Hobby Lobby does sell some sort online, but I'd like some other suggestions as well.

Does anyone watch Big Brother? Normally I hate that show, but there's nothing else on AFN tonight, so I'm stuck watching it. Can I just say I can't stand Jessie? Men like that drive me insane. Men who think they are the hottest thing ever when they really don't have a brain in their head are so irritating! Argh! What an asshat he is.

I think there is going to be a mutiny here on post soon. Reason behind that? Our post is now almost completely out of all tobacco products. Dip and cigarettes both. The next shipment is not supposed to come in until the end of August. I have a feeling it's going to get ugly.

All Things Vintage

Sometimes I think I was born in the wrong decade. Do any of you ever feel that way? My parents are convinced I should have lived in the 70's as I love all things from that time.

I bought this shirt today:



Not from Forever 21 actually. Surprised?

I'm a huge fan of Saturday Night Fever. I'm pretty sure I've mentioned that on here before, but it's pretty much the best movie and soundtrack ever. So what's a fan without her vintage Saturday Night Fever shirt?

I also love this one, but have yet to buy it.



I was browsing TV shows on Amazon today and it took me back to the TV shows I used to love to watch when I was younger. (These are of the non-cartoon variety)

Little House on the Prairie, I Dream of Jeannie, Bewitched, Green Acres, Petticoat Junction, Designing Women, WRKP In Cincinnati, Cheers.

What were some of your faves?

Well I've Never Been to Spain.....

So I'm currently in the works of planning a trip to Spain. I'm not sure when I'm going, I just know I want to go this fall sometime. I know I want to see Seville, Madrid, Barcelona and some of the smaller towns. I may not see them all this time, but eventually I do want to see all those places.



This is where you guys come in. Who's been to Spain? Who has good recommendations for me? It can be on hotels, restaurants, places to see, etc. You can either leave me a comment or feel free to email me. The email address is in my sidebar.

Apparently I'm also going to Oktoberfest. I was informed of that last night by some of Sean's friends. I guess they are trying to get a group of us together to go. Should be interesting. We all know that Army guys + alcohol= either fun or disaster. Any suggestions for that let me know as well.

Enjoy your Friday!
