Saturday's with Tiffany

After being out of social circles (as well as work) due to the flu, Tiffany and I decided early in the week that we needed a "Lady Date".

I think we had planned to head out early, but we headed down to Carytown at around 2 PM. I hadn't been shopping down there in a while, and it was shocking to see how many of the shops have closed or relocated! We were still able to make it to the some of the staples. We started out down at Dogma, where shockingly the shelves were bare, and there were no cat collars with Spikes (the search will have to continue).

We bopped down ducking in random shops until we got to Mongrel where we (READ: me) spent too much money on cards and "KnockKnock" items... I picked up some fabulous stickies to use at work!

















I also picked up a new mouse/note pad to use as well! I think it will be really useful at work, but only time will tell! At least its funny!
I also picked up a couple of cards (two were on sale!) and we headed on down the street!

We had lunch at Galaxy because I can't get over their fried pickles. We ogled over Skirt! Magazine and caught up with each other.



We followed our Fat Kid fest with a trip to Pink to check out and see what items I couldn't live without, and I also had a gift card! I picked up a great pair of Kate Spade sunglasses.

They are the same style as the ones in the picture, but mine are navy. They have the half tint and very smart looking.

They came in a great case with a cleaning cloth and they make me feel very metro and hip! By far they are the most extravagant thing I have purchased for myself in a while, but hey, I had a gift card (READ: justification and guilt buster)!



After we felt like we had spent enough money out we decided to come back and hang out at my apartment. We flipped through the channels and stumbled upon CMT (I say stumbled because usually I would rather watch paint peal that watch CMT). And paint did almost peal when I tried to clean my jewelry (READ: apartment now reeks of spoiled eggs/sulfer)

CMT has a show called "My Big Fat Redneck Wedding" and it is awful/hilarious/shocking (READ: new reality guilty pleasure). Where else can you find Tom Arnold, four wheelers, brides mud wrestling with their mothers, and enough camouflage to hide the United States from Canada.

Just to give you a sample of how Redneckific this show is I have included a couple clips:

Wedding Vows


I love how scripted the grandmother sounds and he said "we did in the backseat we did it in the zoo, i don't care where we do it as long as its with you" and he also makes a comment that he couldn't use big words because he doesn't have a clitoris (READ: rednecks are funny) This is also coming from the guy who proposed to his girlfriend by peeing "Will you marry me" in the middle of the road... classy! But to be fair... his fiance ordered her wedding dress off of the internet (needed size 28 but ordered a size 8 (READ: rednecks do not know how to differentiate between Euro and US sizes) and lost her teeth (YES HER TEETH) the day of the wedding and had to borrow her MOTHERS! See there is someone out there for everyone!

Sadly enough I spent a lot of time searching YouTube for classic clips to share, but to no avail! Anyway... hope you enjoyed the clips... I did...
