In other news...

Let me just start off this post by saying:

I just got home from the gym after taking some supplement I was talked into by some dude at GNC.  I am WIRED.  As in, can hardly sit still, and oddly anxious about completely irrelevant things.  So please keep that fact as a frame of reference while reading this more-than-likely random post.  (Who are we kidding, all of my posts are random.)


We'll start off by introducing my most recent and proudest purchase:

While I'm not one to name my belongings, I have this sudden urge to call her Sandra.  Hmm - I'll go ahead and attribute that to the meth I think I'm on.  

But isn't it ADORABLE?!  I admire it every time I see it.  And you guys - it has the good pockets.  Not the flimsy excuse for a phone sleeve kind of pockets, but sturdy material inside that you know will keep that phone in place.  Also - it not only has the tampon-pocket (yes, it's what I call it - because that's what its for), but it also has a little pocket on the outside, which also doubles as a zippered pouch, so you get three useful pockets on one side.  Little change purse, a little side pocket for gum and chapstick and the tiny tampon pocket.  And then on the other side, it has the phone sleeve and the slightly bigger sleeve for...gadgets that are slightly bigger than your phone?  I have none, but I'll take the slightly bigger pocket all the same.  And then on the back it has the superfluous outside zipper pocket that I always picture clever pick-pockets getting into - so I never use it.

And I LOVE the color.  Again, a purse I don't have to switch out based on whether I am wearing grays and blacks, or tans and browns.  LOVE IT.  It's also BSU Orange too - which was a selling point I used on my husband.  That didn't work - what did work was comparing my old worn out purse to new ones and showing him that, indeed, I needed a new purse.  Believe it or not, women's purses wear out faster than men's wallets.

I also purchased the following off of GroopDealz.com:

I purchased the white necklace.  I'm excited to get it in the mail!

I also purchased these:

I chose #8 - the blue ones.

And of course, since I already bought a new necklace and won't be buying more because - I just got one.  Today's deal are these:

On sale for $12.99 normally $50.00.  I want the green arrow one and the wrap coral one.  But I won't because I have will power...I do!!

In case you miss this deal - which ends in a few hours - they're from Boppy By Design.  And apparently her facebook page is one to watch because she was selling $10 bubble necklaces but the offer is closed.  Curses!

I'm finding Groop Dealz might be dangerous for me.

In other news:

I finished the trilogy.

Yeah, I know I said I couldn't get past the first book and the weird porny kinkyness (don't care if they're not words) - but I have this thing...where I have to finish a book I start.  There are currently two other books on my nook that I need to finish, and I've needed to finish them for a while.  They're slow, and boring me, but I know I'll have to sit down and finish them because...it's bothering me.

And then of course the first book kinda left me needing more information, like "Why are you such a sick, sick, sicko?"  (10 points for who guesses where that's from, and another 10 points if you know who said it to whom.)

Here are my thoughts:

1.  Even in role-playing scenarios I can't get past the bossiness.  Would it kill ya to say please?!  "Bend over...please."  "Sit behind the door and don't look at me...please."  "I'll bend you over my knee if you say that again...please."

Yeah I know, it doesn't work that way, but I have this huge aversion to people telling me what to do.

2.  I liked the second book better.  I'm still a believer that nobody takes their pants off that much, but whatever, they're fictional characters.  And I was ok until the introduction back into the Red Room and certain toys came back into play.  The kind of toys that made me blurt out "*@#% NO!!!!"  Which registered a strange look from my husband.  Now that I'm thinking back I can't remember which book the creepy toys came back, but I skipped through it because...yikes.

3.  The third book was kind of like the last Twilight book.  It wraps things up in a nice bow which makes you feel ok about it being over with, even if it's kinda cheesy.  

It seems like there will probably be another series that shadows this series, kind of like Stephenie Meyer's Midnight Sun which she probably won't finish because somebody had to be a party pooper.  Way to ruin it for the rest of us you dirty leakers!  I would like to know what Edward thinks, but now I can't because somebody had to stupid.  At least we get a few pages, right?

It probably would put into more perspective knowing what Christian is thinking, but then again - he's Fifty Shades, and super dirty.  I don't know if I wanna know that bad.  Then again I always want to hear about the cheesy falling in love stuff.  I'm conflicted.

And here's another thought:  Again - how are they going to make this into a movie without it being straight up porn?!  They're casting for the movie as we speak!  And last I heard they're thinking Alexis Bledel and she's so innocent looking.  And if she's Ana, she'll be doing some real naughty-dirty type shiz.  I'm a little scared for the movie.

Also I've talked to a few girls at work who finished the series and apparently I'm not all that prude-y like I thought.  They had a tough time with some of the kink too.  I'm glad I'm normal.

Anyways - that's all the rambling for now.

Carry on.
