The Pregnant Man Is Pregnant Again!

WILL SOMEONE PLEASE TELL THEM TO STOP??

So gross...

Greatest show ever...

Okay, I hope you have all seen this 1987 classic at some point in your life. If not, you were deprived as a child. I had to run to my parents and watch Luke for a bit while my mom went to the doctor's. He was asleep so I started channel surfing. Lo and behold, this little gem of a show happened to be on so I caught the last 45 minutes of it. Dare I say, it might be my favorite movie and it gets better every time you watch it. A couple of things to note:
a) we used to watch this all the time as kids and now when I watch it, I realize things that I didn't as a child. It's all about sex AND Hollywood is a nasty, gay man. Apparently, Di and Rich figured we wouldn't know what they were talking about, which we didn't.
b) whoever thought of the storyline is genius..A stock boy falls in love with a mannequin that comes to life at night?? Are you serious? At this point in my life, I appreciate these awesome 80's storylines. The only thing comparable today is "Snakes on a Plane". Although I haven't seen it, I doubt it holds a candle to Mannequin.
c) Roxy's hair is awesome..She is sporting a bun and ponytail all in one. Who can pull that off? Only Roxy.
d) In the end, they get married in a mall window, ceremony performed by Hollywood. It doesn't get any better than that.
e) Kim Cattrell has never looked better. You know this show was a resume booster for her.

If you don't know what I am talking about, this is a MUST SEE!

And in doing some research online, I found that there is a Mannequin 2. Any takers?

Enough is enough

About five years ago, I started taking a tap class. My mom started before me with a bunch of her friends and she eventually talked me into it. I am so glad that she did cause I think it is honestly the highlight of my life up until this point. Is that sad? Anyhoo, when I started, I got a bunch of friends to do it with me. Little by little, each one dropped out for various reasons. I am the only one that is still going strong and as a result, am in a class where I am the youngest by at least 30 years. They are awesome ladies though and they can move like you wouldn't believe! Now to my point. When I switched to this class, I noticed a particular woman who apparently doesn't like to wear a bra. Now I can think of many reasons why at almost 60 years old you should be wearing a bra.

1) Your boobs aren't as perky as they used to be and may hang a little normal than lower
2) You are freaking TAPPING, which involves a lot of JUMPING. Nuf said.

I have often thought of why on earth this woman wouldn't wear a bra. You would think that support would be a priority for her but time and time again, as she stands behind me, I can't help but look in the mirror at her "free boobs" and throw up in my mouth a little bit.

Last night was seriously the breaking point. When I walked in, she had a jacket on, seeing as the weather is getting a little colder. As we started to warm up, she took her jacket off and I witnessed something that I never want to see again. Not only was she not wearing a bra, but she was wearing a nude colored tee that was COMPLETELY see through! Are you kidding me?? The bouncing was bad enough but now she is adding nipples to the equation! Sorry for being so graphic but I seriously am considering switching classes. It's not as if she can't see herself in the mirror as well! Needless to say, I was completely disgusted and am not looking forward to next Monday night. The only other option now is going topless and since we've all seen it all anyway, what's stopping her??

I just needed to vent. And just be glad there isn't a photo.

Always good to be reminded...

"When you're unsure of yourself, when you start pulling back into doubt and small living, she's the one inside saying, 'Get up from there and live like the glorious girl you are.' She's the power in you."

I needed this..

My Lizzie Loo is getting Married!!

Not that Liz has been a big contributer to the blog in the last year but I am happy to say that she just got engaged to a great guy! I couldn't be happier for her! If anything, maybe people will stop wondering who my "friend" Liz is. Just wanted to say congrats to the happy couple!

The "Voo"

This trip was actually over Labor Day but it has just taken me a while to post my pics. My ward, yes, I said my singles ward, went to Nauvoo over Labor Day. Can I just say that it was 5 fun-lovin' days of church sites, long bus rides, the most disgusting food I have ever eaten, sick hotels(especially the Super 8 somewhere in Wyoming complete with stained sheets and hair, not our hair, on the shower wall), and lots of interesting peeps. Let's just say that if you don't like FHE in a singles ward, this trip would not have been for you. And can I just say that if my good friend Brookie wouldn't have been there, I may have been suicidal. Enjoy the pics!

The freaky Community of Christ/RLDS temple in Independence Missouri- pronounced Mi-sur-a
Little known fact- the Visitors Center is actually built around the jail, the exsiting jail isn't there except for the original floor. A replica has been built.
Adam-Ondi-Ahman - not much there...yet.

The first of many disgusting meals.

All of the cute Sr. Missionaries put on a musical that was straight of "Waiting for Guffman". Brooke and I were dying the whole time and in honor, we had to show some guns and give our best dead swan.
The view from the grove where JS used to preach.

Unfortunately my camera died a few days before we came home so some sites weren't documented. Overall, good times were had by all and the memories made were priceless.

Weekend at the drive-in

Who doesn't love a good weekend at the drive-in?? I don't know if there is anything better than putting a lovesac in the back of a truck and piling a bunch of peeps in there. Liz was kind enough to venture up from Provo to enjoy the flick with us. We prayed for no rain and besides a few sprinkles, it was a fabulous night..

This, my friends, is Toby. He will making more frequent appearances on the blog. Although it looks like we just woke up, we just thought we would take a post movie pic at 1AM.
