So after, when he whispers, “You love me. Real or not real?”
I tell him, “Real.”

I ACCIDENTALLY HIT THE WRONG THING WHEN EDITING A GIF OF A SLOTH AND IT’S FLASHING WHITE BETWEEN THE FRAMES
IT LOOKS LIKE A FUCKING HORROR MOVIE

Here is a schedule of my favorite shows. TMI, I know.
Love it anyways.
I really want a new camera
But I have a perfectly good one already. And my smartphone (when it doesn’t hate me) works surprisingly well. Pictures on my blog? From my smartphone. Jealous?
Until I get around to buying a new camera, I am going to get a new SD card. I take way too many photos all the time (I like to remember things), so I need a big one, so I’m going to get this one: Transcend 32 GB Class 10 SDHC Flash Memory Card (TS32GSDHC10E). Super excited!

Coupons
This week should be good.
Cheap clementines, and some gravy.
Boring.
I was doing some searching on Swagbucks and saw this. WHAT????

When it's Rally Season,
I want your cans, I want to sing obnoxiously, and I really really want to look around campus and cry bout how much I miss it.
I miss Russell Sage a lot.
I need...
I need a better way to save money. Like not just being like, I saved n amount with coupons, but actually taking money out of my wallet and putting it away. I need to save money quick for my trip. I’m so excited.
Thank you so much. I appreciate any funds and your patience as I rant about things.

Jack Shepard, Lost
Disconnected
Do you ever kinda wish you could be less connected to the world. That sometimes you can really enjoy the silence?
I have a love/hate relationship with my smartphone. I clearly use my phone more than the rest of the family combined. I call it getting more for my dollar, but it’s really more of an addiction.
So when my mom is threatening to stop paying for my phone. I don’t mind, because a) I should be paying for my own phone and b) I halfway don’t want a phone. Unfortunately, it actually saves us both money if I stay on her plan. If only she’d let me pay my share.
I’d love to shut off my phone for awhile. I wasn’t alive for it, but there was a time when people barely had home phones, and I’d like to survive like that. I’m going to South Africa for (hopefully) 2 weeks. That’ll be a nice break.

My big mouth
My big mouth is going to get me in trouble one day. Mostly because I have strong opinions. If I ever go to jail because of it, please know it is my own damn fault.
On that note, I’ve been reading some blogs on ethical couponing. I love couponing, and I’m not allowed to have a big stockpile, so I think the most of any product I’ve bought at one time is 12 (I have 3 computers, 2 coupons per, and it was a coupon that was off 2). It was sauce though and there were tons.
However, shelf-clearing is just obnoxious. There is nothing worse than going in and there are absolutely no products left. But I really hate when there are only two. Then I have to think about whether or not I want to take the last 2 products. Do I REALLY need 2 free pastas? REALLY?
When I first started couponing, I took a class. I don’t suggest it. I learned nothing new, except for that the grocery store near my grandma’s is like 12 cents cheaper. I knew most of the information beforehand, and it wasn’t really worth the $20. The teacher also used a coupon unethically (on my compass, you can decide for yourself). Our store frequently has coupons that are like 5/$50 or 10/$100, and they state right on there that it is after all other offers. She told us that if we handed it over first it would still work. Yeah, it still works, but is it right?
Every time I use one of those coupons, I think about it.

So... um... sorry
I wrote a post that was kinda mean. I’m sorry. I’m judging your wedding, but I definitely care about everyone and enjoy your taste. Because of your wedding, I get to see how it all works. (And I will buy something off your registry. With a coupon!).
So here are some of my ideas (thanks pinterest). Feel free to judge them as you like.
1. Instead of programs, I love the idea of a magazine. Something with a program, but puzzles and fun facts to keep everyone entertained. I think it’s fun, but it’s not so crazy that I’d feel weird about it being in a formal setting (if that’s what I decide).
2. I want to do a first look/before ceremony pictures. Again, my family is huge, and I’d love to get most of those pictures out of the way so I can spend more time with my guests. Because at the end of the day, I’m having a reception to spend time with you. I do understand that it might not be possible (hey grandma, do you mind spending an extra hour BEFORE the wedding for pictures? Oh, and the rest of the family?).
3. On that note, I also want to have my wedding early in the day. I hate waiting around. I think I can achieve this by doing pictures early though.
4. I want to do save the dates with little pictures for your calendar. I think it’s cute and helpful.
5. For my invitations, I’m going to print myself. I also plan on making like 60 trips to Michaels/AC Moore to take advantage of their coupons for invitations. I’m really a couponer at heart.
6. I’d also like to buy all of the food for my wedding (using coupons), but I probably can’t. Mostly because all of the people who could cater, I don’t want working at my wedding. I also like the idea of a sit down meal, so this doesn’t seem possible. But if you want to do it, lemme know. I’ll go couponing for you!.
7. This post is really for the first post I did. I want a smaller wedding party. Mostly because I’ll be the last single person of my friends and I’m one of the younger cousins. And absolutely, absolutely, NO FLOWER GIRL. Sorry, I want to be the focus of everyone’s attention.
Judge me as you will. BRING IT!
I made a delicious caramel frappacino.
And I don’t even care if I spelled it wrong.
I previously made a bunch of ice cubes using dark roast k-cups on the smallest cup size setting, but I wanted something extra creamy this morning.
My recipe:
5 of the ice cubes
maybe a 1/2 cup of light cream
A couple squirts of caramel sundae sauce
Some extra cream because my blender hates ice.
Blend until the ice is crushed. Winning.

So again, all of my friends are getting married.
And I’m judging all of their weddings. My sister had a big wedding, my friends are having smaller weddings, and I use each one to decide how I want mine to be.
General Stuff:
My cousin’s wedding had a ton of misbehaving kids. Like running around the couple during their first dance. Makes me think: No kids at my wedding. Sorry nephews.
I like the idea of dry weddings, but let’s face it. I’m walking the alcoholic line. However, I think cash bars are tacky. It’s like, COME TO MY WEDDING, but pay for your own overpriced drinks! At my sister’s first wedding, soft drinks were covered, but cash bar for alcohol. I like that. So it’s between that and completely no alcohol at my wedding.
Also, what is it with people putting their registry information on their invitations? That is just straight up rude. Maybe I was just brought up that you never expect things like presents. So no registry information on my invitations. Ask if you want to know.
Wedding websites? I like it. I’m not sure if I’d do it. If I do, that’s where you can find my registry information.
Seating charts? Totally going to happen. Yeah, it seems nice to be like, sit where ever, but I have a huge family. Like my immediate family takes up an entire table. And there’s nothing worse than charging in to make sure we have a table. If you know there’s a family like that, I suggest that at minimum, you reserve a table for them.
Oh yeah, and my opinion on this eloping and then having a potluck reception afterwards and still expecting a gift? Rude. Sorry, I just had to put that out there. I understand that you want to share your day, but it’s ridiculous. Have a quick backyard wedding.
On that note, I’m kinda forced to have a big wedding. My family: parents, siblings, aunts, uncles, uncles is 50 people. Never mind the other distant family members I’d like to share my wedding with. And my friends.
It’s posts like these that I think, oh my poor boyfriend doesn’t realize what he’s getting into.

This is 40.
I just watched This is 40. I have no opinion, except that I need to re-watch LOST.
And that Paul Rudd cannot possibly be that old. Clueless can’t be that old, right?
Kindle
I have so many books I have to read, and I can’t find my Kindle.
Is there an app to find it?

Shopping List
Tomorrow’s shopping list is kinda lame. I’m going to not-my-normal-grocery-store tonight so we’ll see what I actually need tomorrow. Also, this week is my last week of getting 2 papers :(

Sometimes...
Sometimes, for just a day or two, I get really insecure about my relationship. I’m not sure why, but I just kinda freak out.
Did I force him to tell me he loves me?
Do I smother him?
Why hasn’t he texted me in 6 hours??
And then he tells me he loves me unprompted. Then I know we’ll be ok.

Snow Day!!
Looking at compost bins and ways to grow potatoes in the spring.
It absolutely amazes me how much stuff we throw away. I swear, with a compost bin, I could throw away almost nothing. It could be beautiful…
My poor boyfriend. He has no idea what he signed up for.
I really really really really want a caramel macchiato. With extra caramel. Like I really, really, really want one.
