Favorites on a Friday

Hahahha I'm sure no one reads this. Well i'm going to text D and tell her I posted something and then she'll get here and it won't even be anything quality and she'll be disappointed. Anyways, I'm feeling like posting something random/trying to kill time at work sooooo here ya go.

Favorite TV show:
This changes...all the time. Let's go with Dexter today. Mainly because I've been watching it like crazy allowing for plenty of nightmares lately. Is there something worse that a nightmare because that's what I've been having.



Favorite Food:
This is a toss up between sushi and pizza really. When Colin and I hang out, I'm pretty sure we tend to make the greatest homemade pizza ever. But I haven't seen him for probably almost a year so sushi is quickly taking the top spot on this one.





Normally I use a lot more toppings. Only this cheese pizza looks really really good right now.

Favorite Song: Bon Iver - Skinny Love or Otis Redding - Sitting on the dock of the bay. Definitely a toss up because they're both so good.



Favorite Cocktail: Amaretto sours. or a good mojito. A mojito with fresh mint from a home grown plant. Definitely. Ashley makes the best mojitos.



Favorite Chocolate Bar: Tolblerone - i was eating one the other day at work and someone suggested using it fondue. How have I never thought of this.



Why has no one bought me this yet? This is amazing.

Favorite Kind of Travel: Road Trip for sure. There's something to be said about being in a car with someone for hours and hours and not wanting to kill each other. Also being able to stop whenever you come across something really cool is always a good time.




Favorite Color: Some would try and argue it's black because that's all I wear. I think the fall colors would be my favorite when all combined.



Favorite Coffee: Starbucks...grande 5 pump toffee nut americano. This is amazing. Thank you Julia in first year sociology for introducing me to this amazingness. I could drink one every single day. Good thing there isn't a starbucks in this town.




And that's it, that's all! Maybe I'll post about the half marathon i'm signing up for that's next june one of these days!

Hope you all have a good weekend!

Current Obsessions

Here's a random collection of things I'm wanting or liking lately. I figured this blog was in need of something new.

This lip gloss is amazing. I need to go on a good hunt for this. I don't usually wear lip gloss but this stuff is sort of like a drug D and I have decided. It makes your lips tingly for a good 15 minutes and it's such a cool feeling.


I have wanted this eye shadow pallet for so long. Oh hey hint hint to someone whose buying me a birthday present at some point in the near future. This has so many nice colors and I've heard nothing but good things about it in reviews. Also, you know I have far too much time on my hands when I'm reading/watching make up reviews.


This watch...I can't stop thinking about it. It's terrible. I can't afford it. I won't be able to for awhile. But it's beautiful. We bought Dariane's watch at Spareparts and got to look at all the beautiful watches at the same time. Big mistake. It's all I want now.

This little gem! D and I went into Winnipeg Saturday morning because she wanted to see about getting a dog before she went back to Saskatchewan and she found one! I was so excited to be there and help her. This isn't a very good photo but she's so insanely shy it was hard to get a good photo that first day. I can't wait to go to Broadview and just spend the weekend playing with her.

this is good

do you ever just have a good feeling about something?

a feeling like everything is going to work out because it's about time things go according to plan?

Everything keeps changing and growing and moving along and I had this realization yesterday after a friend and I were talking that you just have to do things for yourself. If you want things to get better the only way that it's going to happen is if you change it for yourself. You can't constantly worry about other people's opinions or ideas on what you do. You're true, genuine friends are going to be there for you no matter what. If you have a bad day and piss them off, the next day you apologize and just move on.

I am the only person that can make things better for myself.

We're being audited at work today. Susi walks in this morning and says to me "Mandy, the auditor (she said his real name but I'll just leave that out) is coming in today. We have opening and closing meetings with him. I'll just let you know now that he's a married man." Apparently he's hot. I have yet to see him but this just made my otherwise crappy day a teeny tiny bit better. I think I'm getting the flu and when I woke up this morning all i wanted to do was lay in bed and do nothing all day long.

I went to the city last night to see Katie and Ash. Those girls are fantastic. I miss dinners and drinks and just hanging out talking to them. We went to Luxalune which has delicious food. We shared some pizza and bruschetta. I had a mojitos, they had beers. It was perfect.
