12:24 a.m. and I'm still awake. I've been trying to fall asleep since 10:00 p.m. but after laying in bed, tossing and turning, I gave up. So here I am! What's new kids? How was everyone's weekend? Mine was okay. Saturday night I was still mentally drained from the day before at work, that I made it a cheesy 80's movie kind of night. I watched Pretty in Pink and Sixteen Candles and then just for kicks, I watched Grease, because everybody knows, "A hickey from Kinicky is like a Hallmark card." heh. I love that movie! I annoy people when they watch it with me because I will follow along and say the lines either at the same time or before the actor says them. I do that with West Side Story too, but instead of reciting lines, I sing! -or try to anyway. Sunday, I lounged around the house for a bit before heading out to a jewelry party. Truthfully, I only went because I wanted to get out of the house. I needed distraction from my thoughts. Anyway, I had a nice time. The jewelry that was being showcased was really nice. Some of it was gorgeous even! But too friggin expensive! Interestingly enough, I've never been a "jewelry" kind of girl. I mean, ok so I love wearing earrings and bracelets. And I'll wear rings sometimes. But not always. I do own a few "heirlooms" (okay, MY definition and others definition of heirloom is very different) that I wear on special occasions. I think for my birthday in October, I will buy myself a diamond ring. I've never had one. Sad, I know. And since this is going to by my 45th (ouch! it even hurts to type that out) anniversary of my birth, I deserve something fab! Don't you think? Yeah, I thought you would. Well, it's just that I was waiting and waiting for Prince Charming to do it but he's missing in action, probably hanging with the Lochness monster somewhere. Bleh! I don't need no stinkin' prince to buy me diamonds. I'll do it myself. So yeah, my birthday gift to me this year, will be a diamond ring. Yay me! I''ve been looking a certain ones that I'm interested in, no hurry though. I've got plenty of time to choose. Where was I? Oh yes, the jewelry party. I left after an acceptable amount of time had passed, and came home. Didn't watch the Oscars. Watched a Lifetime movie instead and indulged in chocolate ice cream. Sooooo not on my diet. I know, I know, I was bad tonight. But it was soooo good! Sometimes being bad is a necessity. That's it, my weekend in a nutshell. Jealous? I thought so.
Hmm, I'm going to go pass out now.
Monday's on deck peeps. Make it count!

i have watched Pretty in Pink and all the other Molly Ringwalkd movies and i LOVE lifetime movies!! Yvonne!! you and i would have a GREAT slumber party if we ever had one!! hahahahaha!!! its movies like these that keep the hope alive!!!! and yes buy yourself a diamond!!! you are more than worth it!!
I would definately get that diamond! I'd love to watch Grease and Westside Story with you and sing along to both movies! I was quite young when Westside came out and saw it at the theatre. I got the record and sang, "I Feel Pretty," while dancing around my room.
Grease- My favorite is ? "Tell me more, tell me more, did she put up a fight!" I will say I took my daughters to see it and was horrified when Sandy changed into a slutty looking girl. Holy crap! My daughter Sandy, who was 12 at the time, asked me, "She turned bad didn't she Mom?"
Hopw you had somw sweet dreams when you finally fell asleep hun
ox
happy Monday!
Those jewelry parties! Ugh! I have been to so many and buy stuff I don't need for way too much money. Still? I go. Tsk, tsk.
Love those movies! Frankly, it sounds like you had a perfect weekend! No man-stress. lol
I totally think you should buy yourself a diamond. Why wait for a guy to buy you one? Of course, you know what they say? The minute you resolve to buy yourself a diamond, is the second a man will walk into your life, with a diamond to follow. :)
Oh yes, I'm sooooo jealous! :) I'm a connoisseur of some good chocolate ice-cream. Strawberry would be better, but choco comes in a strong runner-up. Yes indeed!
Sounds like you had a great weekend, actually. Now back to the Monday grind, eh?
LD- our slumber party would totally rock! lol
Belle- we'd drive everyone nuts! hahaha Let's do it!!!
Joy Project - I did, thank you!
Kelley - Right? It's like we know they are horrible but we still go and endure it! hahhaa
FV -Hmmm, reverse psychology? hahah Maybe THAT would work! :)
David - Chocolate is da BEST! lol Yes, Monday is done. 4 more days til the weekend!!! :)
OMG. Sixteen Candles is my favorite favorite favorite movie from that era!! And since you haven't written for a few days, does that mean you finally fell asleep?? lol
Love, love, love that you will gift yourself with a diamond ring. Good for you!
So fun to watch those movies and sing along. Sounds like a really good time.
Rita -hahaha, I did!!!
YRJ- I love those movies! And yeah, I think I deserve the rock
-or in my case, pebble on my finger. hahaha
I think that'll be a wonderful gift for yourself. A girl has got to have at least a little bit of diamonds.
