Embracing my F-ing Fabulousness

I read this great post today on a makeup artist board where I often lurk. It was from a model who was so emotionally exhausted from reassuring the people around her that they were indeed as beautiful/successful/wanted as she. She really didn't understand why they focused so much on their negative attributes, yet when she stated she loved herself and thought she was hot, they responded that she was a stuck up narcissist. Huh?? A girl can't love herself apparently.

Then she challenged everyone to just embrace their F-ing fabulousness and get over moaning about themselves. It whacked me over the head like a brick. I have decided to embrace said fabulousness and stop trying so damn hard! I'm not stuck up, and could quite possibly be narcissistic, so I think I make a good candidate for the program, lol.

In other news, I tried to kill Alex last night. Not on purpose mind you. I bought some lovely fresh stuffed Salmon at the commissary and we had it for dinner. Something in it (who knows!!??) made him break out in hives and made his throat kind of tight. Great. And me fresh out of my handy Benadryl strippy thingies. But, he was alive and kicking at 0330 this morning, so I think he recovered well.

P.S. Bonus blog for Tuesday :)

Just in case you were wondering:

I heart Rockstars.

The energy drinks, not the people, lol :)

They make me want to go home and vacuum. And mop. And maybe take down all 24 sets of curtains in the game room, string them up on a laundry line (note: stop on my way home and buy laundry line) and beat the dust out of them.

HOWEVER, I'll probably run out of steam halfway through vacuuming :) Good thing I have more Rockstars out in the Beer Fridge :)

I should write a book: How to have an obsessively clean house in Fits and Spurts.

I'm having a Manic....Tuesday?

Weeeellllll, I don't like the beginning of the week. It makes me think too much of all the fun I could be having if it were still the weekend. But aside from that, I'm having a great day :) I have new lip gloss. It is verra verra guud. It is called Lip Injection and it burns, baby, burns!!! And makes my lips swell up like balloons :) It damn well better for 18 bucks a tiny little tube!
I want one in every color :)

I wish I could say I did something interesting this weekend, but all I really did was buy new work clothes. In a much smaller size than the ones I already have, mind you. And I read a lot. Something like 4 books. Pretty normal for me. Danica was doing this whole Leech-to-Mommy thing that was driving me n-u-t-z! She wouldn't even go to sleep Sunday unless I was next to her. Not good when we are trying to teach her to fall asleep by herself. Alex did his typical Alex routine for Saturday and Sunday: work at least a half a day and then watch TV until his eyeballs popped out. However, Monday some alien came and stole my husband and replaced him with a guy that washed, dried, folded, and PUT AWAY ALL my laundry. I've kept him and will now use him mercilessly to perform chores.
