Randomness of the Day

1) I'm an introvert.  Actually, I am the definition of introvert. I'll be under my desk now. Don't come looking for me or I'll have to find a new avoidance spot.

2) I can consume 1 liter of plain club soda in a span of a few hours. It takes me all day to do the same with plain water.

3) Besides sleeping more (hahaha, never gonna happen), how do I get rid of these dark circles?

4) Although I will miss not taking Monkey to an actual store to buy his first set of "back to school" supplies and the excitement that comes with it, I have decided to save my sanity and just buy everything online.  I will have him sit next to me and pick it all out though :)

5) My new favorite train wreck show - Botched.

Randomness of the Day

1) I love gummy bears...especially Haribo.  and not just gummy bears -- gummy worms, gummy cola bottles, gummy letters, gummy clown fish, gummy Smurfs (yes I said Smurfs) the list goes on. I do not, however, like Haribo Tutti Fruttis. They taste weird.

2) I am currently reading book 1 of Game of Thrones (I have not seen even one episode of the show).  I have been reading for a month now.  I am at about 11% on my Kindle.  I'll talk to you guys again about this in 5 years when I complete the first 4 books.

3) I think I have attempted half of my New Year's Resolutions.  I think I have lasted through none of them.  How long until 2014 again?

4) I can't get Miley Cyrus' "We Can't Stop" out of my head.  It hurts.  How do I make it stop?

5) Horizontal stripes are not my friend (along with Time).  But I can't stop wanting clothes with horizontal stripes. I obviously have issues.

Randomness of the Day

Who missed my Random Thoughts?

1) My fingers and nose are SO cold right now.  I don't understand why the building has to be at BELOW FREEZING all day, just because it's hot outside.

2) My new obsession is the Guaranimal Booster Shot from Organic Avenue.  SO delicious.  It MUST be like a billion calories for me to love it so much.

3) Guess what...I need another haircut.  My hair hasn't grown very much from my last haircut.  But I feel like a change.

4) I definitely need to get back into my baking.  But I think I need to rewrite my Baking Bucket List.

5) I've been reading and seeing movies again! Check back for book lists and movie lists :)

Randomness of the Day

1) How is it only 2:45pm? This day is just coasting at 1mph.

2) this whole extra "progesterone" business of pregnancy is really wearing thin on my skin. If i find one more breakout, I'm gonna FREAK OUT!

3) I need to organize my playlists on my ITouch better. I feel like i just throw songs into a playlist without any rhyme or reason.

4) TV is SO boring these days, even commercials have no ingenuity, no pizzazz or "WOW" factor. I'm bored, TV! Step it up!

5) I have actually accomplished a few of the items on my TtDBIGB post. However, I feel now, after the fact, that i probably should have taken a few pictures to memorialize that I actually did accomplish some of the things I wanted to accomplish this summer.

BONUS) And in my head that keeps taking me back to Melanism's (and his friend, Cindy, who started the project) summer project. Like some sort of Pregnancy Photo Project or something. (maybe I can go through all my photos and see if I have one for every week of my pregnancy so far). Never too late right?

Randomness of the Day

1) I'm so sleepy.

2) I wonder if anybody would pay me to just be on social networking sites all day long, updating my pages.

3) I secretly love when Hubby sings. It makes him so happy. I like when he's happy.

4) I'm scared about winning the lottery or at casinos. I feel like karma will find a way to then screw you in some other way, big time. Like Hurley on Lost.

5) I can't wait until the summer season of reality tv dies down, and autumn welcomes the new season of scripted sitcoms and dramas.

Randomness of the Day

1) It's such a strange thing having close friends in your life who are so completely different from each other. Yet you have a deep connection with all of them. All parts of your own personality just show up in theirs and vice versa...and it's confusing? strange? fun? intense? negative? positive? frustrating? exhausting? invigorating? all of the above...

2) I can't imagine not being able to keep "in touch" with others without all my gadgets--blackberry, cell phone, laptop, ipod, home phone, tv...I have a really hard time during the "please turn off all electronic gadgets" moments on flight.

3) I am trying very hard to keep my hormones in check during the pregnancy. A few people in my life really have a way of pulling the worst out of me. I have to remind myself to "WOOSAH" during interactions with those people.

4) I don't find myself to be a people person. I'm awkward, and blunt, and I find I try too hard sometimes to prove that I am a people person.

5) My dreams have been getting extremely weird lately. Very fantastical and supernatural.

Randomness of the Day

1) This NON-STOP rain, wind, humidity, cold weather all at once just adds to my "the apocalypse is coming" theory. Either that or Mother Nature thinks it's funny to add MORE depression into our lives this year.

2) I need a staycation...a month-long staycation....

3) Ryan Reynolds has 3% body fat. THREE PERCENT! Is that even healthy?!

4) I cannot wait to start feeling the li'l bluebri move. Also, cannot wait until August when Hubby and I can start registering and setting up the nursery. :)

5) Why do some people, who can very clearly SEE that you are not in the mood to chitty-chat, insist on chitty-chatting with you? Leave me alone until you can find something that makes sense to talk to me about.

Randomness of the Day

1) Hubby & I are a Bengay mess. His messed up back and arm, and my messed up neck and back are not helping us push the fact that we are much younger than we actually are. At least we look younger (knock on wood).

2) How did my next two empty weekends to clean out my apartment, turn into Party Central?

3) What's the best way to get rid of garlic breath? Even brushing my teeth doesn't get rid of that taste.

4) I really don't enjoy "reality" tv anymore. I think "I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Outta Here" really sealed that grave for me. Bring on all the new scripted shows of the 2009-2010 season, PLEASE!!

5) I'm trying to see if I can go one month without shopping (does not include groceries, drug store items, and gifts/flowers for others). I officially started June 1st. :)

Randomness of the Day

1) I like food. More than half my posts are about food. I spend much of my day wondering what I want to eat at my next meal. I should buy some stretchy pants, like Joey's Thanksgiving pants on FRIENDS.

2) My daily radio stations have been boring me lately, talk & music -wise. Step it up z100's Elvis Duran & the Morning Show, BBC Radio 1's Chris Moyles Show, and Wendy Williams Experience on WBLS. STEP....IT....UP.

3) Where's my Pulled Pork Sandwich? (more food)

4) They could have extended the "Serena not knowing about Gabriel & Poppy Lifton" storyline a bit longer on Gossip Girl. I mean seriously, Anne Hathaway had no clue about Raffaello for YEARS!!

5) I wish ALL of my work can be done from a wireless connection/server, so that I could spend the day at Bryant Park today (or home with A/C-either or).

Randomness of the Day

1) I believe that when old friends leave your life, they are opening the door for new friends. There are a few friends I refuse to let leave. They are my extended family, and parts of my heart. You know who you are. I will continue to send you hellos everyday. (No, I'm not a stalker thankyouverymuch). There are also some friends who took other paths, and I miss them dearly. I'm hoping, via Facebook, our paths will cross again (again, I promise I am not a stalker). ;)

2) My favorite word in the world is passion. I love the sound, the look, and the many different meanings. I love what it brings to other words when put together. I think I lost my personal meaning for it somewhere back in college.

3) Although I have not an athletic bone in my body, and sports tend to bore me, I religiously wear the Jets' PJs my brother-in-law (BobbleHead) and sister-in-law (Mama) got me for my birthday one year. The Jets are Hubby's favorite football team, and I feel a part of him when I wear the PJ's. It's silly I know, but I'm silly :) This will also stand true for any Devils' paraphernalia I will come into ownership of as the years go on.

4) I wish I wasn't afraid of the responsibility of having a pet, as I think I might like having a puppy.

5) People who don't reply to emails/voicemails/text messages etc EVER are on my list of biggest pet peeves. EVERYONE is busy.

Randomness of the Day

1) Why do fried, fatty foods ALWAYS sound (and taste) soooooooooooooo good after a night of drinking?? I want mozzarella sticks and KFC right now.

2) I'm double jointed.  I think this may be adding to my sudden arthritis.

3) I still feel badly about making The Boys and Moobles walk over to the KFC on 14th and 6th (during our senior year in college) in hopes that there was one closer to us than 14th and 2nd, and in excitement of fried chicken and biscuits, only to find that it actually hadn't opened yet. Obviously, I'm still craving KFC.

4) I've never liked my eyebrows, except for a period of 3 years that I loved them.  An eyebrow threading woman in India totally messed them up 6 months before my wedding. I've never been able to grow them back to the point where I love them again.

5) I want a How I Met Your Mother marathon to be on right now.

Randomness of the Day

1) My mother-in-law reminds me of "Kitty Foreman" from That 70's Show (another all-time GREAT show), sans the excessive drinking.  My MOL laughs at EVERYTHING (seriously, she laughs even when she cries), tries to see EVERYTHING in a positive light, LOVES match-making, and just wants everyone to be happy.

2) My first blog consisted mainly of aim conversations between Moobles and myself.  Thus I created this second blog that would relate better to others, and that would make sense to others besides Moobles and myself :)

3) I love reading all the different random facts about my friends and family.  It's those random facts that make them who they are.  Thus going back to my fascination of "why we are the way we are".

4) I am ALWAYS hungry, even when I'm full, and stuffed to the brim.  I'm still thinking about what I want to eat next. I think it's from all the NOT eating I did as a kid.  I'm making up for it, like sleep.

5) I love hugs.

Randomness of the Day

1) I don't care if the channel is in HD or not. I know what the difference is, but I just don't care. I really could go through life WITHOUT seeing ALL the zits on an actor's face. This situation annoys my hubby to no end.

2) I can't seem to get myself out of bed and into the shower to get to work on time. This is not a new thing. I have this issue EVERYDAY.

3) I do tend to talk to myself, and have been for as long as I remember. I never had an imaginary friend. I just had me.

4) I still get excited when somebody mentions the New Mickey Mouse Club (aka MMC). It makes me feel special that I knew about Justin Timberlake, Ryan Gosling (one of my faves), Christina Aguilera (another fave), Britney Spears, JC Chasez (the love of my life), and Keri Russell (wanted to be her, and was DEVASTATED when she broke up with Tony Lucca-her "soul mate") before most people.

5) When working out, I keep imagining "Nicole Sherzinger abs and Kelly Ripa arms" over and over again in my head. This somehow doesn't motivate me to get up and out of bed any earlier to get to the gym in the a.m., and then get to work on time.

Randomness of the Day

So, on Facebook, a "note" has been going around called: 25 Random Things About Me. It's actually quite interesting and fun (but, of course, I love that kind of stuff). So I thought, why not post my list of 25 on here, and then everyday post something random about me or that I'm thinking of (along with my "Train of Thought" post), as I have PLENTY of random thoughts about myself and the world. So, let's start today with the initial "25 random thoughts about me":

1) I had written this whole thing out, and my program decided to shut down on me before I could save it. Aargh. Of course, I did it again immediately. I love this stuff.
2) I am SUPREMELY neurotic
3) My little sister is my soul mate -- connected through all of our lives, past, present, and future
4) But my husband is the love of my life -- my strength, my calmness, my laughter, my tears, my annoyance, my hugs, and everything in between
5) The one regret in my life is quitting dance. I started taking classes at age 3, until age 12, when I contracted a major case of stage fright. Still have it.
6) I love to write, however I find I write in rambles. Thus blogging and I have really connected. Check mine out at browniesugar.blogspot.com
7) I wish I were wittier. I think I might have been at one point.
8) Josh Duhamel is #1 on my celeb "to do" list ;)
9) I really wish I was more like Heidi Klum as she's #1 on my husband's list :)
10) Shopping is my drug of choice
11) Baking is my activity of choice. And now I bake from scratch! (No more boxed mixes for me, no sir!)
12) I want to see the world
13) I speak Hindi-English and Spanglish. One of these days, I'll actually start speaking fluent Hindi and Spanish
14) I want to go back to school to get my masters. I just wish I knew in what.
15) I already have names picked out for my future daughters. I can't think of any boys' names I like. This just means I have to have all girls :)
16) I dream in color -- very vivid, very real dreams
17) I majored in psychology due to my extreme fascination with "why we are the way we are" -from birth through the college years. I'm still fascinated by this.
18) I sing in the shower, and think I sound amazing (only in the shower)
19) I incessantly stare at my bare, non-existent abs (aka pooch) in the mirror
20) I play out every worst case scenario in my head of any and every situation that comes my way, whether is has anything to do with me or not. Sometimes I do the same thing for situations I see on tv.
21) I am insanely competitive, thus avoid playing any games to avoid having a "Monica" moment (see "FRIENDS" ep "The One With All The Poker"). I hate when people know more about pop culture than I do. But I'll keep that to myself ;)
22) I used to see 4-5 movies at the theater, in one month, growing up. I now see that many in a year.
23) I love monkeys. The cute curious george, chimp types. Not the crazy baboons with the red butts.
24) I need sleep.
25) I don't know how to swim
