Friends
Y'all. I'm not sure I've made my love and affection for Friends clear before, so let me take this moment to reveal to you how obsessed I am. As in, I own every season on DVD, and in some cases more than one copy. I cried at the finale. I regularly watched "Joey," the not-so-successful spin off. I can recall almost every episode. I have seen every episode at least half a dozen (or maybe a dozen) times. I watched it so often on DVD that I can tell which scenes have been left out of the Netflix versions - yes, it's true. Obsessed. And now, thanks to NBC, I can relive it all over again!Have you heard the news? There will be a reunion of sorts and it is the day after my wedding, so basically I'm treating it as a wedding present from NBC to me. Logical, right?
The Bachelor
Ah, another season of the Bachelor is here. I used to tell my self that I wasn't going to watch it this season - every season - and yet I would inevitably end up watching it. And if I started mid-season, I would binge watch to catch up. Those days are over. I am officially a Bachelor/Bachelorette-watching girl (I am not prepared to call myself a fan, yet). So far this season, all two episodes, has been about on par with the prior seasons. Although I will say I'm glad they didn't try to bring back the idea of starting out with two Bachelors/Bachelorettes, because that was just painful to watch. But is definitely an interesting twist to have twins, and two prior contestants. I'm very interested to see how far Becca goes. She already seems much better than last (last) season in terms of showing some personality, though I'm sure a lot of that comes with the familiarity of the process. And of course there's Lace. There's always one of them. I'm honestly a little surprised he didn't send her home pre-rose ceremony on the first night. But actually, I'm not sure that a Bachelor has ever done that, though I know a few Bachelorettes have. Feel free to prove me wrong if I'm not remembering correctly. Who are your front runners so far?Winter, is that You?
This weather has been insane. We woke up to at least two inches of snow on Sunday, and then had blizzard like conditions on Tuesday, but only for about 15 minutes, and then just frequent snow, and yesterday the high was 60! Our wedding is a little over a month away and I used to think I wanted snow - just enough to be pretty, not so much it ruins plans - but with as cold as it's been I'm starting to rethink that. Maybe 60 degrees in February wouldn't be so bad!Making our House a Home
We closed on our house right before Christmas, and as of Wednesday have officially moved everything out of our old Condo. despite the fact that we are more than doubling our space, it still feels like we have so. much. stuff. and trying to find a place for all of it has been more difficult than I would have imagined, and of course knowing that we will (most likely) be adding lots of wedding presents to the mix as well, for which I am oh so thankful. My mom keeps telling me I need to "live with it for a while" and then decide what I can keep, what we still need to buy, etc. But y'all, I am so impatient! I want to have every room perfectly decorated right now! I am doing my best though to re-purpose a lot of the things we have, and use them in decorative ways that I might not have considered before, so that is helping things find a place and making our house look like a home.Ready for the Weekend
I don't know about you, but after having two short weeks thanks to Christmas and New Years, these last two full weeks have seemed like they were never going to end! I am so excited to be going into a three day weekend, even if I do have to come into the office for a little bit on Monday. At least there will be another short week following. Plus, I have the chance to go home and get a lot of wedding plans sort of finalized (!!!) and run some errands, and I am really looking forward to that. Turns out planning a wedding in a town you don't live in anymore is a bit challenging! Do y'all have any plans for this 3-day weekend?
Have a great weekend, y'all!

ReplyDeleteyessss, I feel like as soon as I get one room in good shape, more boxes seem to appear! I finally have a craft room :) and I've already rearranged it 3 times - when I really should be spending that time unpacking the other rooms!
DeleteThanks for stopping by!
wait. should we be BFFs? Because I'm the same way with Friends! In fact, I knew my husband was the one when I saw his DVD collection and he too had every season on DVD (just kidding, but not really). And the Bachelor too! Another favorite over here! My front runners are Lauren B & Becca-I loved her last season because I felt like she was so real and true to her morals and opinions. Can't wait to see who wins!
ReplyDeleteI do love Becca, but I can't imagine going through all of that again! I am (obviously) obsessed with Friends and my fiance's sister has every season on DVD too so we were able to bond quickly over that!
DeleteLove the bachelor. It is definitely one of my guilty pleasures!
ReplyDeleteRight? I used to deny it, but honestly its just so much easier to admit! Haha!
DeleteThanks for stopping by!
We've been in our new house almost a year, and things are just now really starting to come together. It takes time, but just do what you can with a busy schedule.
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up with us for H54F! BTW, the linkup goes live at 8 am EST tomorrow (instead of the usual 7) and will include thumbnails!!!
