MARRY ME MICHAEL!!!

So I have been watching The Bachelorette and I have to confess that I am totally in love with Michael! Like seriously, what a H-O-T-T-I-E!!! I laugh every time he is on. If Jillian doesnt' want him then send him my way please! MmMmMm.... He's good lookin, he can break dance, he's hilarious, he's spontaneous.... I want him! Or anybody who is EXACTLY like him would do too. :) I have watched the Bachelorette since it's first season and I have never really liked a guy. Of course I've thought some of them were cute, others were losers, but I've never really cared one way or the other, but if Jillian doesn't pick Michael, she is out of her mind CrAzY!!! Okay and now that everyone knows I'm obessed with the guy I'm gonna go. But first I have to say that Wes is a flaming pile of douche and should be sent home immediately! She's crazy that she can't see through him like that. Okay that's all.

Fashion gurus

I went shopping yesterday and was assaulted by all the neon colors of the 80's aerobics gear that is now passing for fashion. It makes me wonder who is in charge of all this stuff.... stuff = fashion. No one wants to be seen wearing teal colored skinny jeans with a wife beater that has a rainbow peace sign. And if they do, they have a twisted sense of fashion. These particular items of clothing went out of style for a reason, so why bring them back??? And another fashion that has made an appearance is the cowboy/indian theme. Granted it took them longer to come back then the 80's, but still... Everywhere I looked I was either blinded by the colors or having a flashback to the old west. Leather fringe vests and shirts covered in Indian styled beading. Bleck!

Old age = Ditzy moments

So I've come to the conclusion that the older I get the more scatterbrained/ditzy/retarded I get. At the rate I'm going I'm going to be a drooling vegetable by the time I'm thirty! It used to be that Rachael had all the blonde moments, but i tell you what I think I need to be changing my hair color. Some examples: Last week gas prices went up to 2.50. I'm driving by the gas station and I'm thinking, man that sucks! It'll be three bucks by tomorrow! Because in my mind, the three dollar mark was coming right after 2.59. Hello Amber! This is not time, it's money. Then a couple days later I go to Hollywood Video to rent TrueBlood. It's a series on HBO; it's supposed to be really good. So I walk over to get the DVD. I pick it up, it says complete first season and I think great! So I take it home and plop it in the DVD player. And guess what? It was only for the last two episodes. That would have been great if I had watched the first 10 episodes already! Jeez... But in my defense the sticker with the barcode for Hollywood Video was covering up the part that said Disc 5 Epsiodes 11 &12. So now I have to take it back and see if they will let me trade it for the first disc without charging me. But I'm gonna guess it'll be a no go. We'll see. And yet another example. Yesterday I'm leaving church and I have to go to the grocery store on my way home. I was craving chicken and we didn't have any. So I'm driving down the street. There are multiple stop signs, and I stop for all of them. Then I get down to the main road. I stop, look both ways, no cars so I go. About halfway through the intersection the light turns green. And the only reason I noticed that I had just run a red light, is because it caught my attention when the light changed. It didn't even occur to me that I was sitting at a light. Or that I had to wait for it to turn green. I fully expect to receive a ticket in the mail sometime this week. Just my luck....

Fix me PLEASE!!!

Today I am feeling very much like my eggo is preggo. I woke up starving so I grab a salad to eat on my way to work cuz that's what I was craving. And now three hours later the smell of the dressing has me dry heaving. I'm having to breathe through my mouth so I don't gag. I actually had to set the garbage can outside just now so I could continue sitting at my desk. I don't know what my deal is. Lately smells have been getting to me like nothing else. I usually have a pretty strong stomach, but lately just the thought of some smells has me gagging. I actually threw up two weeks ago because of the smell of my Nilla wafers. What?! I can't remember the last time I actually threw up. I love Nilla wafers and usually eat them by the box. But at the moment just the thought of them is making my mouth water, and not in a good way. I wish I could just waltz into a hospital and say, "I'd like to get fixed please." The way you can take your dog or cat into the vet and get them "fixed". Wouldn't that be so nice? You wouldn't have any periods, you wouldn't have to worry about ever getting preggo and all the nasty side effects that come with being preggo. Feeling nauseous is just about the worst feeling in whole world. I hate it! It gives you a headache and makes you feel achy and tired and grumpy. This is pretty much just a pity me post. Thanks for reading if you made it all the way through. Love you guys.

Crazy Weekend

So I spent my memorial weekend down in salt lake with my friend Tara. It was a blast! It was a much needed vacay... even though I don't really work that hard. :) We babysat Ashley's dogs since she was down in Florida visiting her brother. It was a mad house! She has a rottweiller that is huge! I thought he was part Great Dane when I first saw him. Then she has a Golden Retriever and a hound. Add to that Tara's dog Phantom, he's a mix, and her little dog Sadie and her parent's Dautschand, Dexter, and it was crazy! The little weiner dog, Dexter, was trying to hump the golden retriever, Sage, who did not like that at all. Then Blue, the rottweiller, didn't like Phantom so they were fighting and chasing each other all over the house. Blue has a problem with drooling. It was disgusting. We had Ash's three dogs in the backseat of Tara's car and Blue would stick his head up front to be with us. I had to use my purse as a shield against his drool. It was running down my arm and everytime he would close his mouth it would splatter all over us. It was a very long car ride to drop him back off at Ashley's house. Needless to say I had to go home and change my shirt because it was covered in dog slobber. Tara and Ashley also adopted a kitten. He is only two weeks old and his name is Cartman. He is a persian so his ears are all squished to his head. We had to bottle feed him every couple of hours. But it was okay. Most places let us take him inside with us. We went to the Mayan for dinner. It was crazy how those divers would just leap off the rocks doing flips. I don't think I could do that. I can only image how that job interview would go. After dinner we went to layton and hung out with some of Tara's friends. Then headed down to Spanish Fork to a lodge where we played pool and watched movies. We did a lot of driving that night. :) The next day we slept in and then got lunch at Mimi's Cafe. It was really good. I got this turkey sandwich on ciabatta bread. I could only eat half of it because it was so big! Then we topped the meal off with a chocolate shake from McDonalds! YUMMY! That night we went to a bar. I know, I know. Bad Amber. Whatever, it was so much fun! It was this Irish pub and it had kareokee and dancing and it was so much fun! We danced the night away and sang along with kareokee people. It was a blast! I wanted to get up and sing but Tara wouldn't do it with me. Maybe next time... Monday I went out to Tooele and put flowers on Chris's mom's grave. I couldn't believe how many people were at the cemetary. Crazy. Then I went to a barbeque with Lisa and Bruce. They are a couple that I worked with up in Alaska. I love these guys! Their kids are awesome. Syd is going to be a senior this next year and Boon is almost 16 I think. He used to be annoying when I first met him. But now he just makes me laugh. I am going down to stay with them for a weekend in June and I can't wait. Overall it was a dang fun weekend. Hope everyone else had a fun weekend!

Treasure Trove

I had a baby shower that I went to last night. So I'm at K-mart buying the little guy some clothes and of course I had to pick up some for Rachie's little girl... I love baby clothes! So cute how little they are! Anywhoo, I walk over to the Dollar Tree to buy a bag and tissue paper because it's cheap right? This Dollar Tree was amazing! I've been to dollar stores before, obviously:), but this one was awesome! They had an entire isle dedicated just to gift bags. They were bags that were so cute. You would of paid 5 bucks at Target or Walmart for bags that looked just like these ones. And the tissue paper was in bulk. Which I didn't need, but it was still a great deal. 20 - 40 sheets of sparkly or colored tissue paper for $1!!! SWEEET!! They had lotions that were name brands just in smaller size. And everything is really just a dollar! I hate those dollar stores where they charge you MORE than a dollar. Family Dollar is very guilty of doing this... I got a three pack of Spearmint flavored Certs for just a buck! I love Certs! And I got a four pack of Extra gum. It's a new flavor called Supermint. It;s definitely super... I think I inhaled when I went to put it in my mouth because I was choking for about three minutes afterward. Jennie was laughing her head off which made me laugh which made me choke even harder... Needless to say I was crying by the time I could breathe again. :) You could buy flip flops, kids swimming suits, preggo tests (not sure how reliable those would be, just sayin...) decorations for all holidays, lotions, makeup, food... It was seriously a little treasure trove. I want to go back! Just thought I would share so that you can all get in on the great deals. Love ya!

X-men Rock!

So I just saw the new x-men movie, Wolverine and it rocked! I love Hugh Jackman. Did anyone else notice that we totally got a great view of his lovely behind??? Do you think it was a stunt double? I sure hope not. That man has got one fine lookin body. I'm not sure who played his brother in the movie, but I don't think I will ever be able to see another movie with him in it without viewing him as being evil. Kinda like I can't watch a movie with Glenn Close in it when she is trying to play a good guy because she is so totally evil from the movie 101 Dalmations. Some people are just born to play certain roles, like Hugh Jackman who was born to play the role of the hero, and a good lookin one at that. I'm going to see the new Angels and Demons movie tonight and I'm anxious to see if it is as good as the book. Probably not since I have yet to see a movie that can compare to the book, but I have my fingers crossed that one day it will happen. It doesn't matter if the movie is as great as the book because regardless Dan Brown is an awesome writer. He is one of the few mystery/suspense novelists that I actually like. That's all I have to say on that matter. LAter
