QUOTEY QUOTES

I am cleaning out my folders on my work computer and found a document of quotes that I like and have collected.  It’s a mish mash, but kinda fun…who doesn’t love a good quote?  Enjoy!

Love? It's such a funny word… But I know it means wanting the best for the people you love, putting their interests above your own, always. Love does that. Love is what you live for." -Angelina Jolie

Memory is the diary that we all carry about with us.  -Oscar Wilde

The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who don't have it.  -George Bernard Shaw

Get Ready, NYC!

So, it’s official.  I have my plane ticket and I quit my job. PHEW! That took a lot of stress off my chest; I can breathe a bit easier knowing that it is actually happening.  I am moving to New York City. 

Hey Girl...Love, Ryan Gosling

I found these via Lainey Gossip's post where she refers to Ryan Gosling as "vagina-friendly". How fucking true is that? He is the prototype.  Bad ass and sensitive.  Damn. I want. And these memes are HILARIOUS! How much do you want to marry him?

In a hopless place.

Rihanna’s new video for “We Found Love” (watch it at the bottom of this post) is on the Yahoo! homepage as one of the top stories with the headline “Rihanna’s Upsetting Video”.  I don’t really understand who this is upsetting for. 

I swear I'll be with you someday

Superman

Tall, dark, and superman, he
puts papers in his briefcase and drives away
to save the world or go to work - it's the same thing to me
He's got his mother's eyes, his father's ambition
I wonder if he knows how much that I miss him
I hang on every word you say
And you smile and say, "How are you?"
And I'll say, "Just fine."
I always forget to tell you I love you. I’ll love you forever.

I watch Superman fly away
You've got a busy day today
Go save the world
I’ll be around
I watch superman fly away
Come back, I'll be with you some day
I’ll be right here on the ground
when you come back down

Tall, dark, and beautiful
he's complicated, he's so rational
But I hope someday he’ll take me away and save the day

Something in his deep brown eyes has me saying,
He's not all bad like his reputation
And I can't hear one single word they say
You leave, got places to be and I’ll be okay
I always forget to tell you I love you
I loved you from the very first day

I watch Superman fly away
You've got a busy day today
Go save the world, I'll be around
I watch Superman fly away
Come back, I’ll be with you someday
I'll be right here on the ground
when you come back down

And I watch
you fly around the world
And I hope you don’t save some other girl
Don’t forget, don’t forget about me
I'm far away, but I never let you go
I'm lovestruck and looking out the window
Don't forget, don't forget where I’ll be
Right here wishing the flowers were from you
Wishing the card was from you
Wishing the call was from you
Cause I've loved you from the very first day

I watch Superman fly away
You've got a busy day today
Go save the world, I’ll be around
For ever and ever
I watch Superman fly away
I swear I'll be with you someday
I’ll be right here on the ground
when you come back down

Cleaning Out My Camera

Pictures are a big part of my family.  My dad loves photography and at any family event, big or small, he is there with his camera.  Eventually, as I started loving photography too, he would hand me the camera and unwittingly I became the unofficial family photographer; a terrible thing for an attention-loving youngest child as I was no longer in any of the photos.  My sisters would probably say it evens out since my whole childhood was documented extensively. 

Do You Trust Politicians?

Do you trust politicians? 

I can’t help but smile when I type that title, and no, it’s not a rhetorical question.  Although it seems almost painfully clear what 99% of people would say: “FUCK NO!” or some variation of that. 

These Boots Are Made For Walkin'

Moving sucks.  But changing climates is fun because you get to shop.  I could go broke with all the winter stuff I want to buy.  Today I was looking at boots on Zappos, my favorite shoe website (free next day shipping and the easiest returns ever).   I want them allllllllllllllllllllllllllll!

What the #$%^*(@ is THAT?!

Look, I hate to be a bitch.  But this is terrifying.  I really can't stand Christina, never liked her, and as petty as this is, I love these pictures so much.  She looks busted.  And now I have to go do a good deed to fix my karma.

Morning Makeup

This morning I pressed snooze until it was 7:00am, the exact time that I should be leaving my house.  This is part of the reason that I might never let my hair get long again; all I had to do was throw on the clothes I had set out the night before, brush my teeth, and run out the front door.  And I totally made it on time. 

Laziness gets such a bad rap, but I like to think of all the ways that it helps me in my life.  Laziness drives me to simplify things and one thing that I have brilliantly simplified is my makeup routine.  I have gotten amazingly talented at putting on my makeup in the car.  I know that’s terrible.  But it takes me less than a minute and when I am able to put on mascara without looking in the mirror it really makes me feel like a woman.
