Saturday Smorgasbord...

Saturday is for my random thoughts. You know the drill. I'm too lazy to write about a theme today. 

• Who else is reallllyyy glad the weather is gorgeous today? So pretty. Too bad it's not just a teeeensy bit warmer so I could lay out by the pool. Oh, but it's coming soon, whether my flabby stomach wants to admit it or not. 
• Today = day number four with no Diet Coke. I'm not gonna lie, y'all, this has been hard. I was super disappointed in myself on day number one when I got a headache that afternoon from lack of caffeine (that was WITH my daily cup of coffee). I didn't realize that I was addicted to soda. Like physically. Laaaammmmeeee. See, here's the thing. WD and I even talked about this the other night....in college, I never drank Cokes. I don't think I bought one to go in my fridge the entire time I lived in Clemson. I don't know what happened! I started working, needed a pick-me-up in the afternoons but without as much caffeine as coffee, so BAM! I fell into the soda trap. This? Will. Not. Work. I don't like having to have something to function. Good Lent choice, I say. So yeah, this was a really long bullet point.....but the moral of the story is, I have not had a Diet Coke since Tuesday, so I am punishing the Lent. Gooooo me.
• What's up with the pup? He's good. He's relentlessly licking my hand right now, which makes it really hard for me to type.....so now I just opened the porch door so he can go out there and pretend like he's gonna rip every passerby to shreds (He won't. He's really a scaredy-cat. He'd get so mad if he knew I called him a cat.
  

  

  I am not a cat. Or scared. And I will lick you to death.

• Oohhhhh also! The boy and I went to the Sugarland concert on Thursday night. I tell you what....it was aaawwwesssome. Jennifer Nettles is probably one of the weirdest people I've ever seen, and that is why I want to be friends with her. She wore this leotard looking thing that had tassels all over it. She danced the oddest dances across the entire stage. Her facial expressions were....wow. We are so meant to be ya-ya sisters. 
• Unfortunately, I didn't get a whole lot of good pictures, but here's what I have.

Meh to the picture. Yay to sooo much fun that night!

See the tassels? Also, does anyone pay attention to the other guy in Sugarland?
I don't even know his name. 

Zoomed out. With the chick in front of me's head.

•  I don't like the pictures of me. I figured out why, too. I've been squeezing the last little bit out of my Clinique mascara and, by the look of these pictures, it's dead. Now I'm just waiting for Maybelline to go on sale. Because, as we all know...I don't pay full price. For anything. 
• Except for the low-sodium roast beef I got at the deli counter the other day for TEN FREAKING DOLLARS. The only thing that made it okay was that the old man beside me was whistling the happiest tune the whole 5 minutes we were standing there next to one another. I smiled. It brightened my day. Happiness is so contagious, yeah? 

Have a HAPPY Saturday!
