Tidbit Tuesday #108

I feel like there’s just so much to share from this mostly uneventful January! Maybe that’s because the typically uneventful tidbits in life have taken on a semi-humorous sitcom-like vibe as of late. For instance! Last week, when holding my personal steam mask for my (now GONE) bronchitis in my hands as opposed to placing it on a flat surface like ALL the warnings say… I flinched and sent scalding hot water all over my legs. My laryngytic vocal chords prevented me from screaming as loudly as I wanted to, and my foggy brain prevented me from checking to see if Sully’s eyeballs had melted out before shoving him in his crate. The doc’s verdict was first degree rather than the second degree all signs pointed to, which was a HUGE answer to my frantic prayers. AND, my voice is now strong enough to sing Mary had a Little Lamb about two octaves below my usual range. This is PROGRESS, Internet!! End of update. :)

Yesterday I took Sully to get his nails ground down. And like clockwork, as soon as he jumps out of the car, people stop what they’re doing and stare and laugh at him. If I didn’t know any better, I’d swear they were making fun of how overweight he is. (We’re TRYING!) But I’ve decided to believe they’re in awe of his cuteness, his heifer-like spots (no pun intended), and the way he walks like he’s on a mission! Protruding chin up. Ears back. Smiling the whole time.

As my birthday approaches… And as unopened packages labeled “Open 1/30!” pile up on my desk.. Well? I get more and more excited. I’m not entirely sure why I get so pumped for my birthday each year. I think it’s the fact that my 24th year will be a new beginning. Not that 23 was bad at all! I loved it. :) But 24?! It’s like I’ll finally be an adult or something! ;) Dylan and I plan to celebrate on Saturday since he’ll be working on Monday. And if all goes according to plan, we’ll wake up to bagels, eggs and bacon magically prepared for us/me. We’ll spend the morning on a birthday shopping-spree. We’ll prep a fab lunch with my new kitchen gadgetry. We’ll watch the ‘Cuse game. We’ll rent a movie we’ll actually pay attention to! And then we’ll be off to dinner with fancy shoes on.

Song of the Week: Without You by David Guetta featuring Usher. Oh, like you didn’t know my “songs of the week” are basically always determined by whatever was sung on Glee the week before… ;) While I like Lea Michelle’s version more, I am in LOVE with this new hit. No longer do I only associate David Guetta with a banner ad that always interrupts my Spotify playlist! Without You is a strangely-emotional masterpiece. Listen/watch HERE aaand HERE. :)

Until Thursday, I’ll leave you with this sneak peek of Kylee and Casey’s super stylish and sweet engagement session shot yesterday at Memorial Park! To say these two are absolutely ADORABLE with each other is the understatement of the century. Can’t wait to share more!! Stay tuned!

Happy Tuesday!!
