This is Amy. I'm the idiot that didn't see Jen's email yesterday and failed to post her blog yesterday. Sorry about that. this is f
I know the first thing on your mind this morning is, did Jen’s Aunt Flow
finally arrive? That would be a no. But thanks for thinking of me; )
I’m not a morning person. In fact, if there’s a “worst morning person” in the world, I’d be in the running. I typically don’t sleep well, so I almost automatically end up waking in a bad mood.
I must admit that this morning was pretty comical, though, and I can even
appreciate that. I’ve mentioned before that I’ve been getting night sweats. Lately they haven’t been near as bad, though. Thank goodness. But especially since I’m PMS’ing, I’ve got them a bit. So, I’m lying there in bed this morning after the alarm and I kind of bend my knees, while thinking of how much I don’t want to get out of bed. After a bit, I hear something fall to the bed.
I thought, wtf? I think that came from my hamstring. I look, and it was a penny. Haha. I was sweaty enough that a penny had been stuck to me for God knows how long. I had to crack up. After I showered and came back in the room, I also noticed a quarter on the bed. I’m sure that had to be stuck to me
somewhere, too. Is this what it’s come to? :)
After I got ready, I went into the kitchen to find Brian making coffee. He was in a t-shirt and his underwear. I just started cracking up. He’s like what… I said, you look like a girl in your t-shirt and underwear (He never walks around like that. He always has pajama bottoms on. Truthfully I would love it if he’d walk around shirtless, though. I love his chest. It’s the hottest thing when he’s in p.j. bottoms and no shirt. But, he’s not “no shirt Guy.”) Anyway, he’s like what, don’t you like looking at my bottom. I said, yeah, it’d be hot if I were attracted to girls, and we both just started cracking up (btw he and I both know that I am a little, J) We went back and forth with digs, and then all of a sudden I got this feeling. You know that feeling… But
bam, reality hits, uh, I have to leave for work, he needs to get ready for work,
the kids are awake, and Junior needs to be fed. Anyway, there was that moment. You know the kind of moment, you see in
those stupid Viagra commercials or whichever one you take that lasts all day for when the “moment hits.” Anyway, it was a great way to start a morning.
True laughter is the greatest, especially with the one you love. Life gets in the way all too often, and it’s easy to get caught up in all the wrong things.
Those raw moments of remembering why you love them, when it’s most unexpected is the greatest.
As you know by now, if I don’t immediately start with how my diet’s going, you know it’s not going good. Well, that’s an understatement for yesterday and today. I’m not beating myself up for it, though. I’ll get through it, but I’ll tell you one thing: I’m not weighing myself tomorrow.
Anyone that knows me, knows that I have lists for just about everything. I love making up stupid things that make you think about what makes you happy or what have you. So, this morning, as I’m driving to work (while sexually frustrated), I was listening to an old mix c.d., when“Afternoon Delight” came on. Man, I still love, love, love that song. I so wish I could sing, just so I could
do it karaoke! And it made me start thinking about little, silly things, that make me happy (not the super important things like my kids laugh or anything like that), just fun things that are just for you. So, I will now put down my favorite 5 silly things that make me happy. Funny that as soon as I type that, S&M came on Pandora. Haha. No, that won’t make the list. Sorry to say, I’m not very “Fifty Shades of Grey.” Never done any of that. Anyway, I digress. So, without any real thought, here are my top 5.
1) A.D. (Afternoon Delight) I love it when the mood hits,
when it’s least expected and Brian and I make something out of an afternoon,
where there were no expectations.
2) Howard Stern. I love listening to him and the gang. I love that my friend Kathy and I have the same deep love for the show. We talked about Robin and her tumor at length the other night. Robin feels like she’s one of our group.
The show really does feel like a family.
3) Music. I love that I turn up “Boyfriend” by Justin Beiber, and the next minute I’m rocking out to Freebird. Music is my outlet.
4) I love all things, stupid games related. I love playing f/m/k, making lists of any sort, and just the dialogue and thought that goes into it with my friends and me. I also love any sort of board game, esp. Apples to Apples or any music trivia.
5) In the spirit of today being Erin’s birthday, and Tammi’s coming up in a couple of days. I love sending cards to people. I love picking out cards. I
can spend an hour in the card aisle, and walk away with one. To me, I adore that feeling of finding that perfect card for whoever it might be, even if it’s 11 months before their birthday. I’ll buy it, and get excited all over again, when I rediscover it just before their bday.
I feel like I’m talking to myself,
for the most part in doing this blog, but if you’re reading this: what are your
fave 5 things? What are the
little, silly things that make you happy or smile?
Have a great day, my friends.

Afternoon Delight
The Starland Vocal Band
Gonna find my baby, gonna hold her
tight
gonna grab some afternoon
delight.
My motto's always been; when its right,
it's right.
Why wait until the middle of a cold dark
night.
When everything's a little clearer in
the light of day.
And you know the night is always gonna
be there any way.
Sky rockets in flight.
Afternoon delight. Afternoon delight.
Thinkin' of you's workin' up my
appetite
looking forward to a little afternoon
delight.
Rubbin' sticks and stones together makes
the sparks ignite
and the thought of rubbin' you is
getting so exciting.
Sky rockets in flight. Afternoon
delight. Afternoon delight.
Started out this morning feeling so
polite
I always though a fish could not be
caught who wouldn't bite
But you've got some bait a waitin' and I
think I might try nibbling
a little afternoon
delight.
Skyrockets in flight. Afternoon delight.
Afternoon delight.
Please be waiting for me baby when I
come around.
We could make a lot of lovin' 'forthe
sun goes down.
Sky rockets in flight. Afternoon
delight. Afternoon delight.
Repeat chorus.
