tuesday randoms.

i seriously thought i would get back into the swing of things with blogging now that i am down to one summer class, but – clearly – i haven’t.  so before i get a few blog posts scheduled and write about more meaningful content, i’m going to share a hodge-podge of information with you.

call it a brain dump.
call it word vomit.
call it being random.

as for me?  i’m calling it tuesday randoms.

•  we’ve had basic cable for a few months now.  i miss a lot of the shows i used to watch when we had “fun” cable, but i can honestly say that we watch less t.v. than we did before.  and, whenever our television is on, we’re either watching p.b.s. or animal planet.  {okay, we’re still watching the food network, too…even though it’s not part of the basic cable line up.}
• speaking of p.b.s., aidan watched one episode of bob ross and is now obsessed with painting happy little trees and mountain scenes.  should i get him an afro wig?
• i decided that july would be my “no spend” month.  so far, i’ve been more successful with “no spend” july than i was with “mean abs” june and we’re only three days into the month.  ha ha ha!
• i’m kind of obsessed with viggle for android.  maybe it’s because i’m not supposed to spend any money this month {except on groceries, gas, bills, etc.} and i need to get my starbucks fix someway, somehow.
• i made an A in my oceanography for teachers class.  yay!
• i stopped using dryer sheets about a month ago.  instead, i’ve been using dryer balls.  i love them.
• the katy perry movie?  yeah, i’m not interested in seeing it.  and, quite honestly, magic mike doesn’t interest me.  it’s not because of the content, it’s because i’m a lazy schmuck who would rather watch movies at home.
• next month, i’m heading to atlanta to attend the thirty-one national conference.  i’m excited!  speaking of thirty-one, if you’re interested in purchasing something or hosting a party, please let me know!  you can view my page by clicking here.
• our kitchen sink sprang a leak.  adam fixed the plumbing under the sink a few years ago, but told me to call a plumber because he’s been so busy with work.  the plumber wanted almost $400 to fix the leak.  my dad fixed it for $14.  hooray!
• malia came out of my room yesterday wearing a pair of my flip flops.  they fit her perfectly.  the fact that my 11 year old can wear my ladies size 6 shoes makes me sad.  hold me.
• i have decided that i’m going to start running.  i don’t think i am going to do the couch to 5k training program.  instead, i’m just going to build up to a running pace on my own.  in other words, i am going to walk a lot.  maybe.

the randoms could go on and on, but i would probably bore you.

tomorrow, i’m finally going to answer some questions that a few readers asked me many, many months ago.  promise.
