GEICO you are hilarious

I have been laughing my butt off at the more recent +GEICO Insurance commercials. Whoever is in charge of the “Happier Than” ad/marketing account this season has hit my funny bone. Kudos to you, kudos to you!  Why am I writing about this you may ask…well because it’s funny to me.  The radio (thank you +The Bert Show you introduced me to the Hump day spot on my way into work this morning. 

Here are some of my favorites…Happy Hump Day folks!

Open Letters {post vacation rambling}

My vacation has ended but I have a few things to get off my chest. I wrote a few open letters to the things on my mind and heart this morning…
 

Dear Punta Cana,

I am back stateside and into day 2 of being back at work. I miss you Dominican Republic (not the lack of wifi but the beach).  Can I go back on vacation? Is it possible for me to climb into someone’s suitcase with an oxygen mask and a pillow?  Reality is not nearly as much fun as the dancing, drinking, and relaxing that occurred this past weekend. - LC

 

Dear 8 pounds I gained from vacation overeating,

I hate you! I want you to go away without me having to work out or eat right! Can’t you just evaporate into the abyss and leave me alone. The extra giggle and wiggle is unnecessary and cruel if you ask me! F -You!!! This heartburn you brought can kick rocks too! - LC

 

Dear Samsung Galaxy S4,

You are the best phone I have ever had. I love you more than life itself and I want to commit to living together (at least for the next 2 years). If you take care of me, I will take care of you. Case, screen protectors, blackberry sacrifices; whatever you want I agree to do.  Team work makes the dream work baby and together we will change the world. - LC

 

Dear Kitchen Sink,

Yes I mean you my actual kitchen sink. Now is not the time to spring a leak. I need you to stop pouring water in the cabinet underneath you! That doesn’t work for me or the wood at all.  It’s messy and inconvenient plus I really want to wash my dishes from last night’s dinner. I hope the maintenance man sets you straight and that you really think about what you have done so we don’t have a repeat of this incident. Learn from the bathtub (get right or get gutted)! -LC

best phone EVER!!!!

5 minute 5 {Holiday Approaches}

It just hit me that this is a long weekend  (civil servitude means holidays off)! The excitement level associated with the realization of this fact is very high.  I decided to share five things I am going to do over the course of the weekend.
 

1. Dinner party - dining with some of my favorites (some folks are actually celebrating birthdays and graduations (i.e. Nita, Kels, Megs)!
2. Shopping – yeah so I leave for vacation in 9 days and all I really have at this point is one bathing suit that kinda fits and a ton of sun dresses. I am not ready for tropical weather and I don’t have a book picked out for the plane. Gap we have a date on Memorial Day, try to have a sale!
3. Packing – did you read the part where I said vacation in 9 days?!
4. Sweating – summer is creeping in with a vengeance. IT is supposed to be in the 80s this holiday weekend every fan I own will be on overdrive. My AC isn’t allowed on until late June (I’m a frugal weirdo like that).
5. Grillin and Chillin – it is Memorial Day so I need to get my cook and relaxation on. There will be grillin, there will be chillin, there won’t be Bobby Flay (which makes me sad).

Happy Tuesday (aka 3 more days until this weekend can begin day )!!!!

5 minute 5 {Random Quickie}

These are some random thoughts for the day in no particular order with no particular logic:

1.  Ratchet Monday has been reinstated and I am excited. It is a brief moment in time where I indulge in the guilty pleasure of terrible reality TV and reflect on how much better my life really is compared to the tomfoolery I see on TV. Thank you VH1 for the perspective, my wine is already in my hand!
2. I am a fan of this new format of sharing a few of my prominent thoughts in brief.  Flash Gordon move over you are being replaced by a bad ass, super speedy, typing machine (aka a computer). I am fighting evil with random thoughts!
3. If you want something done (not even just done right) sometimes you have to do it yourself!!!  Or so says my inner control freak.
4. Does Smart Water make me smarter? I secretly (well publicly now) believe it does. I also don’t care what people say, it does have a taste and it is better than all the other waters I drink.  I heart you Smart Water and if people want to gift it to me just because I support that!
5. How would our lives be different if Pinky and the Brain really did take over the world (it would probably ruin your day North Korea)? Genetically enhanced lab mice/ dictators probably don’t condone unapproved missile launches.  However, I suspect there would be a great deal of rioting in the streets and fighting over cheese rations; plus we would all be animated.  I really miss that show.

Have a great afternoon folks!  Special prayers to all the peeps recovering from health issues, injuries, and all things medically related. Get well soon and start your plot for World Domination!

A Pinky and the Brain Future!
