Weekends

 If you haven't noticed already, blogging does not happen for me on the weekends. It's the only time I get with The King and I enjoy spending those four days playing peekaboo (mostly). Just wanted to let you know I have some new posts lined up. Hope to update tonight :)

Happy Halloweenie!!!

Ah the silly holiday that celebrates all things terrifying and the over-consumption of too much candy.

Back in the day I used to love scary stuff. I watched scary movies and went to haunted houses knowing that I'd have nightmares for weeks. Ever watch The Exorcism of Emily Rose?? That shit STILL haunts me and I saw it in 2009 for pete's sake!

Oddly enough, now that I'm technically an adult, I'm more afraid of the dark than ever!! It makes absolutely no sense. As a general rule, I do not go into basements, attics or dark places. Ever. I especially hate getting up in the middle of the night to make bottles or calm The King. I love him but it scares me. I'm 99.9% sure I have ghosts in my house. Laugh all you want but they are totally hanging out in Ryan's room.

So anyway, in the spirit of creepy Halloweenie, here's a festive video to go along with Little Big Town's single "Tornado". It was released today on CMT. I don't really like the ending but no one really cares what I think so enjoy!

CMT - Tornado Video

Have fun trick or treating tonight. Just so you know, I'm willing to trade any of The King's candy for your Reeses and KitKats. Remember that?

Pandora Goodness

This song just played on my Jack Johnson station





I don't know what it means to me or if it will mean anything to you but it made me stop what I was doing. That's probably something worth sharing. 

See ya Sandy

I hope that everyone made it safely through Sandy's unwelcome visit. The coverage on the news has been absolutely terrifying and so, so sad. Matt's on his way down there to start the process of restoring power.  I'm sending positive thoughts and prayers your way. Take care of each other.

I knew Sandy in high school...

She hasn't changed a bit.

I hope everyone is prepared. Stay safe and don't be silly.

Night Train. Sh*t!

I told myself I wasn't going to buy Jason Aldean's new album after I heard the news of his scummy make out session in Cali. I was/am pretty mad at him. What kind of guy cheats on his wife, who happens to be his high school sweetheart, who he also has kids with? Oh yeah. Probably lots of guys.

That's another post.

So before cheater cheater pumpkin eater pulled his little stunt, I pre-ordered the album, Night Train. I was just too damn excited and with The King running my life, there are days that I barely remember to brush my teeth. How the hell was I going to remember to buy it in a month?

Well I completely forgot that I did this and much to my surprise, it magically appeared on my phone. I was totally prepared to hate him for life but I'm weak. So, so weak. Once it was in my hand the protest lasted a whole five seconds. It was too hard not to push play.

The verdict...I love it. I'm talking, already know all the words to every song, love it. Damn you Jason Cheater Aldean!!!

I will admit that it is a bit similar to his previous albums in that it's got a lot of moody, ballad, rockin guitar type tracks. He also has a few shake your groove thang tunes too, which have definitely been lacking in the past.

Even though I hate him, sorta, I wanted to share my favorites with you. It would be selfish of me to withhold toe tapping tunes.

In no particular order:
1. When She Says Baby - "some days its tough just gettin up, throwin on these boots and makin that climb" Matt wears boots and climbs all sorts of crazy shit every day so i'm pretending he dedicates this one to me.
2. Feel That Again - nostalgia.
3. The Only Way I know - Luke Bryan and Eric Church pop up outta nowhere on this one. I wanted a longer verse from them but whatever, I'll take it.
4. Take a Little Ride - We have chevy's so it just makes sense. Makes me want to ride in the middle of Matt's truck and wear short shorts. Don't ask. I don't know.
5. 1994 - this one is just too silly not to like it.
6. Staring at the Sun - this is one of those songs you wish someone would say "it reminds me of you" and plant a big kiss on your forehead. Love.
7. Water Tower - home.

Nearly the whole album. Told ya it's good.

Onto Red.

My heart is full


The King was so stinkin happy to see Papa Bear. Love this.
