Day eight: I'm thankful that I was schooled for free in Fairfax County. Moving to all these cities makes you appreciate how amazing our schooling was and for the experiences we had.


Day Nine: I'm thankful for Scottie getting wireless for our place so I can watch T.V. and work at the same time.

Day Ten: I'm thankful for my oldest brother for passing on his enthusiasm for sports to me at a young age (mainly football) and him also for emailing me to remind me that I am falling behind again on my things I'm thankful for. :) Thanks,  Bro.

Just a few facts about my oldest Brother:
  • He knows everything there is to know about College Football.
  • He can smoke any meat and make it taste AH MAZE ING.
  • His T.V room has three TV's on one wall so its like you're in a sports bar. Its a football Saturday dream. 
  • When he was in high school he had a sweet hairdo that slightly resembled Flock Of Seagulls. 
  • He was a massive The Cure fan. 
  • He has two boys who are extremely talented at beating me up. 
  • I was homesick in college my freshmen year and called him because I was upset and he made fun of me, imitated my crying and made me laugh and realize that I was being an idiot. 
  •  He doesn't get mad at me when I heckle him about my little Gamechickens beating his Bama Boys this year. 
  • One of my fondest memories of us hanging out was in Columbia, South Carolina... just he and I getting free beers at a music festival and having a great day introducing him my friends and getting him drunk. 
  • He should really come visit me in Philly! 
 Happy Friday!

I'm five days behind on my THANKFULS! Here's my catch up:

Day Three: I'm thankful that I'm capable of throwing trash in a trashcan because Philadelphians really need to learn that skill.

Day Four: I'm thankful that my parents live close enough to drive up to take Scottie and I out to dinner and enjoy conversation and share hugs.

Day Five: I'm thankful that I own hats, gloves and a heavy jacket because its fricken freezing outside.

Day Six: I'm thankful that my brother enjoys teaching so much. I love hearing his stories about how he connects with his students and it makes me fondly remember the teachers that touched me. (ok, no teachers actually touched me... you get what I mean. I am laughing so hard right now).

Day Seven: I'm thankful for my cell phone because the dude next to me on the train wants to talk but I'm pretending im very, very busy on my iphone.

YEY! Caught up.

Reasons why I LOVE this photo so much... 

1. RuPaul is with Nirvana
2. Kurts Fly is open (and is button fly)
3. Dave Ghrol looks like a 13 year old cheerleader and is wearing mom jeans. 
4. I want Kurt's sunnies right now. 
5. The 90's were awesome.

of my Things to Be Thankful For

I'm thankful I'm not the lady on the other end of my phone right now who works for medical insurance and is getting a verbal lashing.

Because I've been faced with a few challenges this week I'm going to turn it all around and do a 
THIRTY DAYS OF BEING THANKFUL

So every day for thirty days I will write something here. 

Day one. 
I'm thankful for my fiance for being amazing, loving, funny and having the greatest hugs in the world. Without him I wouldn't want to know me. :)


Political?

my love taking a few seconds of sunshine in through our apartment window.
always take a few moments to enjoy the sunshine. Winter time on the East Coast, doing this is VERY important. Come on SPRING!
