    Oh! and what is up with these new Fairytale inspired drama/crime shows?! There's "Once Upon a Time" on ABC, and "Grimm" on NBC (I think...)  I'm trying to to get attached to either after what happened to "The Playboy Club"...

    Kim isn't giving her wedding gifts back. She's making a donation to a charity.

    Oh haiiii ladies. I am sooo pissed off right now. Stupid heath ins. that I cancelled in Sept. hasn't given me my premium refund yet, and they said I would get it 10/25!!! Now, not only did the first lady "not find me in the system", but when I called back the 2nd and 3rd time, they told me they were closed. Then why are you answering, and why did your co worker (from the first call) say you were closed at 6? Freakin jerk LIARS. I have no word on my freakin refund, and I need money, because apparently ALL OF A SUDDEN, stupid Allstate doesn't cover event insurance on a renters policy anymore. (They did 3 months ago when I was working there...) So, there is another 200 bucks for this wedding. BLEH.

    On a lighter note, can you believe that I totally forgot that my bridal shower is on Sunday?!? LOL!

    According to the Huffington Post she had a double lumpectomy and will undergo radiation as well.. She's off the air for now.. Which makes me sad because I like her more than any other E host.. and I'm kind of an E hoar!! I Love itttt!! Regular news makes me sad in the face.. but somehow Celebrity marriages crumbling and who's going to Rehab, generally cheers me up!!

    Hey ladies! How's everyone doing tonight?

    Giuliana has cancer? That's so sad! I love her and Bill and watch their show. I think she's awesome and it's even sadder since they still haven't been able to have a baby and now she's got cancer.. boo.. 

    I haven't read about Kim's presents yet, but I'll check E! Online later, that's where I read all my celeb gossips from. 

    Cab: Sorry about your bouts with your insurances! But yay for your shower, have fun!!

    Cab that blows. I hate insurance. 

    So, I'm half watching the DWTS results show, and Justin Bierber just performed and he is really terrible. And his voice changed so I feel like he's even worse that he used to be....if that's possible.

    How wasteful..  a 10 million dollar wedding for 72 days.  I know that etiquette doesn't say she has to give back her gifts, but I mean, she also registered for what like 3 million dollars worth of stuff?! Such a waste.  Although, she obviously lives in a dream world where money is no object.  It just makes me really sad.. Plus it's like.. I could do SOOOO much with 10 Million dollars!!

    I am no good at all about keeping up with what's going on in the celebrity world. But Irish, those booties are adorable!!! Kudos to you for making that! CAB, that sucks about health insurance. I hate my insurance, they've been pissing me off for 6 months now.

    Oh, and Sami, I have no idea why all these fairytale shows are starting up, but I've been watching Once Upon a Time, and I love it so far!

    I am so over Kim and Kris. OVER IT.

    I did, however, make my first Pinterest inspired project today!!
    Its a dry erase calendar - I literally cut sample paint cards and glued them to the back of the picture that came with the frame. BAM!

    Irish! Those are ADORABLE!! I can crochet, but I can't knit!! jealous!!

    CAB-I'm sorry, thats really frustrating!!

    I have a total vent/rant.  So I ordered H a new wedding band.  I didn't actually buy the one he had, it was one his mom and gotten for his dad but he didn't like so he'd never worn it.  We were sooo broke at the time we were like.. Okay whatever.  So I got him a new one, and then he was like.. "Oh yeah, I lost mine".  Anyway.. I used that coupon code that FTL mentioned a few weeks ago, and it was great and still worked and I only had to pay the $25 shipping for a $300 band.  Plus they called the next day and asked if I wanted to do engraving for $10 (It's $40 on the website, and she started at $30 and I was like No, then she went $20 and I was like.. really No thanks, and then she was like $10 and I was like.. Okay!) So it shipped and everything last week monday.  It has now been sitting in a postal service processing center for over a week. I called the company and they said I have to wait until the end of this week, but if there still isn't action on it they will open an investigation.  So I called the Postal Service to ask if this was normal or what (I've sent and bought enough things to know that it's not!), and I couldn't even speak to a person! It was just obnoxious recordings and that stupid mechanical voice saying "I'm sorry, I'm not understanding what you're saying..." I finally screamed that I was glad the Postal Service is going bankrupt due to the ease of email, especially if they can't even have the decency to let me speak to a freaking person!!!!  Now I'm sure they'll do everything they can to make sure it takes FOREVER to get here.  Ugh!! Plus I'm not sure if I want to send it to H, or wait until we're together and give it to him.  Part of me wants to put it on his finger (I haven't taken my band off since he put it on my finger, I'm super sappy like that), but then again I don't like the idea of him walking around ring-less either.. Grrrrowl!!!

    I have been looking for cute dry erase calendars for a month or two. My desk is inbetween our living room and kitchen -- so guest's can see it. I wanted something prettier than the normal white. This one cost me $12 (cost of the frame) and I love it. Since the paint cards are free and come in all sorts of colors you can pick your color scheme. The girl would originally posted it to pinterest used all green. :)

    How big is your frame? I could probably just find it on Pintrest, but I'm feeling lazy :)<div>
    </div><div>Sami, I used to crochet but have lost all the terminology so knitting it is for me! I can make simple chains and stuff but that's about it! A few of us knit during lunch on Wednesdays at work so it helps keep me motivated, otherwise I never finish anything!!</div>

    The girl I pinned it from used 12x6 frame and cut the paint cards to 2x2
    <a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/407016318/" rel='nofollow'>http://pinterest.com/pin/407016318/</a>

    I used a frame 20x18 since I write big. ($21.99 at Hobby Lobby but it was on sale for 50% off... so $12) I cut the cards to 2.5 x 2.5 ins.

    Sami: That sucks about the band you ordered! Hope you get it soon, but yes customer service everywhere sucks. I hate calling and being put on hold for forever and I HATE talking to an automated machine, it never understands what people say! 

    Okay, so I've noticed that many people are really into Pinterest, anyone care to explain this to me? I am so lost with it!

    Kara, the best way to explain it is a 'virtual inspiration board' but I love it mostly for recipes (all different websites "favorited" all in one place that I can reference quickly) but also crafts, decorating ideas, clothes/style stuff. I've made some food from there and it REALLY has helped me take a fresh look at my closet to put some stuff together in new ways. Love it.

    oH snap! I haven't posted in forever!  Been busy with crap! 
    I agree with others... I'm over Kim K and Kris and all that wedding shiz.  Seriously.  I thought it was a sham to begin.  I didn't even watch.  I didn't get what the big deal was and I thought it was ridiculous.  Just my opinon.

    And I must say that Jessica Simpson's pregnancy announcement was cute with the whole "I'm a mummy!" thing on Halloween.  Super cute!

    CAB, sorry about the health insurance stuff, that sucks!  Hopefully everything will work out and at least you have an awesome bridal shower to look too!! :)
