Distract me?

I'm sitting at my parent's house alone and it sucks. My dad passed away Wednesday and it still feels weird. 

Do you haz a happie to share? A funny story? An accomplishment?

Last night I made a fleece blanket for one of my bm's. It's Zebra on the back.

Re: Distract me?

  • I'm so sorry about your dad. I don't have any happy, fun stories to share today. I accomplished getting my name changed on our bank account yesterday, though!
    What did you think would happen if you walked up to a group of internet strangers and told them to get shoehorned by their lady doc?~StageManager14

    <div>Woohoo! I hate the bank, it's such a pain in the ass and I always feel so intimidated when I go in there. It takes me months to work up the courage to go in and change something. I'm afraid I'm going to look stupid or say something wrong and ruin my financial future. </div>

  • Sorry to hear about your dad!

    I guess my funny (although not that funny) would be that I have been shampooing our carpets today. To entertain myself while I do it, I have been dancing around and singing. I don't normally have all the windows and blinds open, but today I do since I need to dry the floors. One of my neighbors was walking by and started laughing at my little show. I waved and turned bright red. No more dancing or singing...

     

  • Staar, that's awesome! I love catching people doing that stuff. It makes me feel better that others are enjoying life as much as they should be. And hey! You're burning even more calories!!

  • I love catching people doing weird stuff too! I probably should have thought it over better since we live on a major street and people walk by all the time. Oh well. At least I made someone giggle.

    </div><div>The best time ever was my mom and I were rocking out in the car, going 70 down the freeway. We look over and there's this car full of 20 something guys looking at us funny. We kept rocking on, they slowed down behind us for a few minutes and then came back up beside us just rocking the hell out to the same song we were rocking out to. It was one of the best days...</div>

  • I'm so sorry for your loss.

    A happy thing that's going on is our engagement session is next week! I'm going through my wardrobe trying to find 3-5 different outfits for the occasion. We're starting off the day with a Spiderman themed shoot for FI, he's a huge fan.
  • So sorry to hear about your loss.

    There a few posts on CC that might make you laugh about Weirdest Guys you've dated and Weirdest date you've had.

    Also, this never ever lets me down: http://www.collegehumor.com/prankwar start with the bottom one first.

  • Jordan, that's exciting!! Pics of photo ideas you want to take? Pics of outfits?

    Muppet, I read those this week during the insanity. They had me rolling!! And OMG prankwar! FI and I stayed up super late one night bc we found that and couldn't stop giggling.

    Have you seen the "Dansons la Capucine" cat video? It always makes me smile:

  • I'm so sorry!

    I did find a really funny gif this week if you click here.

  • Here's a shot our photographer took. We love his style, we'll be doing something like this at the beach.


    FI and I love the silliness of this pic so we will try to do this.


    This is the idea that we want to do with the Spiderman shoot. FI's jaw nearly hit the floor when I agreed to this. I have a huge fear of spiders but am doing my best to include FI's ideas and hobbies into the wedding frenzy.

    We're doing some pictures at school where we met. I'm looking at dark jeans with a lighter top and fun flats. I got a gorgeous purple Calvin Klein dress that I'll see where I can wear it. FI is picking out my shirt for the Spiderman shoot. I'm relinquishing full artistic control to him for that.
  • Sorry for your loss! How about a cute bunny?

    When I was in high school, I borrowed my dad's minivan (a bright red Dodge Caravan), and my friend and I went shopping.  We were on a main, two-lane road when these guys (about our age) pulled up next to us at a red light in a sports car, blasting rap music and looking over at us like we were losers.  In response, we turned up the music in the minivan as loud as it would go, but the radio was on one of those oldies stations and the song playing was "American Pie" by Don McLean.  We gave them a smug look anyway, and the guys gave us a "wtf, you losers" look before peeling out at a red light.  I still giggle thinking about it

  • This is what my dress kind of looks like. It's more of a v-neck and the skirt part has a more layering effect but it's beautiful and I feel really good in it!
  • Boston, that's how I feel when I hang out with any male friend, especially FI when they're exposed just a hint. Love it. 

    Jordan, those are cute!! You're going to have to come back and AW them because I'm sooo interested! The Spiderman shoot sounds really cool. You're a good FI. 

    Angel gives dah bunnies? Yaay! At the Rodeo, you can pet the bunnies and they're soooo stinking soft.

    <div>That's hilarous!! I always want to throw things at those guys. I also drove a minivan in high school, it was a 93 Plymouth Voyager with a faded red paint job and bright red upholstery and interior. His name was Petey. He had a great sound system, but the radio took about 30 minutes to turn on every morning, just about as I was turning into the school parking lot. It eventually stopped turning on, but we would turn the volume up really loud before football games in the parking lot and my friends and I would dance as we put on our band uniforms. </div><div>
