My Carrie Bradshaw Entry

Alright, I have a question for all of you. I went out with some girlfriends over the weekend, and my free spirit friend T wore a completely hilarious outfit - white linen pants and a matching white linen button up vest. Alone. Now, I would definitely not have the guts to wear this outfit out, but she's got a fabulous sense of humor and I thought pulled it off (she also used to be a pro swimmer, so she definitely has the bod for it). But everywhere we went, other women were gawking at her, rolling their eyes and saying, "Oh my gaw, what is she wearing?" I mean they weren't even hiding their evil looks.

So here's my question, why are we as females, each other's biggest critic? Is it competition, jealousy, insecurity?

What are your thoughts and stories on this topic?

Getting Older Sucks

Went to go see Jack Johnson in concert on Wednesday - it was a great show! Since starting my new job, I haven't really done much during the week. By done, I mean, staying out past 8 pm. We were in such a rush to get to the concert after work that we never got to eat. But we made time for drinks, of course. And I still feel hungover today.....2 days later.

Another thing - I love Jack Johnson. His music is so much fun, the lyrics are creative and he really does seem like a great guy. But, I've got to be honest - I kept thinking, "Didn't he already play that song?" They all kind of sound the same live! I never mentioned it at the concert however, I didn't want the Hurley-clad surfer type concert goers (not to generalize of course) to turn on me!

Meme Time

Thanks for the tag, Summertime Beauty! This tag was hard for me to choose songs that I’m embarrassed of – I take pride in the fact that I’m a total geek who loves me some cheesy music! (Example, my Celine Dion and Spice Girls music collection).

Here are the rules:
1. Link to the person who tagged you and post the rules on your blog.
2. Share 5 songs you are embarrassed to admit to others that you like and tell why.
3. Tag 5 random people at the end of post and include links to their blogs.
4. Let each person know they've been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.

1. “To Be With You” by Mr. Big. This is one of my favorite guilty pleasure songs. I pop in my Monster Ballads CD and belt this tune out while driving.

2. “Bed of Roses” by Bon Jovi. I always think of the video for this song – Keri Russell (love her) was in it. The first and only time I’ve seen her play a bad girl!

3. “November Rain” by Guns ‘n Roses. I don’t care who you are – this is a cool song and a cool video.

4. “Say You’ll Be There” by the Spice Girls. I knew this whole song and all the dance moves by heart. Wait, I still do…..

5. “More Than Words” by Extreme. I listened to this cassette tape on repeat for many months on my mini boom box in my room.

I would like to tag...
