I've spent most of my day catching up on my blogroll. I haven't been in tune with all the interesting stuff that my gals have done over the past week due to me and the boys having one of the nastiest colds known to man. And even more saddening is the fact that my poor babies aren't old enough to spit out the phlegm clogging their throats nor blow the the mucous out their noses for easier breathing. As if colds weren't miserable already at our age and being able to get that stuff out :( We're nearing the end of the tunnel and I pray this cold war is over for us because everything is just a million times better when you're healthy.
On another note, according to my reading (Hi! I'm doing an report, lol!), I guess a couple things are under way. Seems like many of you have finals, so best of luck to you who do. Remember, you can always reward your hard efforts through a mini (or huge) indulge on December 26th. If you're up-to-date on your MAC calendar, you'll know that 4 new collections/promotions are out that day. I'm excited for it, but pissed also because who on Earth can seriously keep up $$$-wise for all these new collections they release back-to-back? "You're killing me Smalls"... (remember where that's from??)
Next, looks like there's this dandy game going around called Tagged. I like the fact that I get to learn a little bit more about each person I interact with aside from the makeup fetish that we all share. I'm beyond my capacity right now to create the links like the rules state, but if need be, please just check out the "Other Places I Heart" category on the right to see :)
I was "tagged" by Vanessa (Nessasary Makeup), Yummy, and Distinque, from what I can remember. I don't think I can tag anyone because I believe everyone I know has been tagged already. I'm just not following directions, am I? LOL.
Anyhow, here are the rules...
Each player starts with 7 random facts/habits about themselves. People who are tagged need to then report this on their own blog with their 7 things as well as these rules. They then need to tag 7 others and list their names on their blog. They are also asked to leave a comment for each of the tagged, to let them know that they have been tagged and to read the blog.
Well, here are my 7 Random Facts/Habits:
1) I'm a little anal retentive about organization. If you watch Friends, I am Monica! My closet is organized by sleeve lengths, I spreadsheet just about everything, I make labeled folders for everything I need to keep (school, expenses, etc...), all my appointments, bills that are due, birthday, etc... are scheduled in my Outlook,... just to touch the tip of the iceberg.
2) In addition to #1, I'm a perfectionist by ALL MEANS. A good example is gift wrapping. I'm the person who cuts the wrapping paper all neatly gliding the scissors down the wrap, makes sure each corner is pointy and folded evenly, and that the end of the wrapper ends at the edge, is tucked in, and aligned with the bottom of the package itself. I also just like to line things up just so that it looks neat and orderly. Wow... now that I'm reading what I'm typing, I'm nuts!
3) I took piano lessons for about 10 years, violin for a couple years, and am a self-taught guitarist. I don't practice any of the three that much anymore, but I love hearing a combination of those instruments in rock bands.
4) I'm a sucker for guys with straight teeth and who are musically inclined. Hubbo is hawt because he has beautiful teeth and plays the guitar and drums *star struck* lol.
5) I moved out of state, got married next to the water and a beautiful sunset, and had two gorgeous kids all within the course of 2 years.
6) Most people consider their bathroom as their sanctuary. The kitchen is mine. The sink always needs to be clear of dirty dishes and the counters need to have a good wipe down, no puddles of water.
7) I HATE HATE HATE spiders. Can't stand them!! I went to the Insect Zoo inside the San Francisco Zoo when I went back to visit, and I couldn't even walk past the display of Arachnids. Some of them were just display models and it scared the sh*t out of me!
and while I'm on a roll for not following the rules, here's a bonus one:
8) I LOOOOOOVE Haribo gummies. More specifically S'ghetti and Gold Bears after the bag is left open. I love super hard candy.
Well, hope that gave you folks a little bit more insight on little 'ol me. Have a great weekend!
Aloha,
Mrs. Lynne

Doin' my beauty blog rounds....you're next! OK, Haribo gummies are the BEST! Slightly hard and they just amaziiiiing. I thought I was the only one who knew that. LOL! I'm a perfectionist too. Are you a Capricorn? So glad that you guys are doin' better. It's around the time when everyone is gettin' sick. Yuck. Have a fab upcoming week!
woo hoo for haribo gummies.. i love gummy and sour candy! thanks for participating =) rules are made to be broken!
i hope you are feeling better now! my mom and bf have the coughing/mucus thing right now, it's amazing how it gets around to everywhere!
i can't wait til dec 26th!
-Divine: OMG, you know Haribo too?!? I've only met a few people that even know what they are! I told hubbo that the one place I'd like to visit is the factory where all that good candy is made *drool*, lol. I'm actually a Virgo. I'm an extreme perfectionist. I've had to tone it down a little though because after the kids, I don't have the time to get anal about everything. But trust me, it's still very much there, hah. You have a great week as well.
-yummy411: If you like sour and gummy, you should get your paws on Haribo's S'ghetti. They are kind of like Sour Straws, but waaaay better. They're much smaller in length and have like 3 flavors in the bag, yummy!
-Stephie: We definitely weren't having the time of our life that's for sure. We all had fevers at some point, but I'm just glad that's behind us now.
I can't wait for the new stuff!!
Hey I'm anal too but the slob that shares my brain usually beats the neat freak up! LOL
Shawnta: LOLOLOLOL!! I think my neat freak half has been holding down the fort pretty well these days. But there is a pile of junk on this dresser in the bedroom. It's Hubbo's dresser, go figure!
