New blogs

Hey y'all.

Just in case I still have a few followers on this place I wanted to let you know I have a couple new blogs that I will be updating far more than this one.

Enjoy!

Blood, sweat and tears. An evening at Big Pink.

Me (after weeping during an episode of McLoed’s Daughters): What is wrong with me? I’m pretty sure I’m the biggest crybaby ever!

Bridgette: No you’re not. Sean was making fun of me last weekend when a tear ran down my face during Shrek. Shrek-in 3D. Apparently the 3D glasses didn’t hide the tears.

Glee

I have mixed feelings about Glee. I like the music and they have some great one liners, but all the drama between the characters is at times frustrating. And maybe that's because a lot of the drama is too closely related to current drama in my life and no I'm not pregnant or am I faking a pregnancy.

How come singles wards have to be as dramatic as high school? Who care if you're popular or who's dating each other! Grrr...I sometimes feel like Josie in Never Been Kissed-aren't I too old for this? Why are you gossiping like a school girl and acting like you're 16?

Anyway, back to the show.

Like in last night's episode entitled "Laryngitis", Rachel gets laryngitis and is afraid she be permanently scarred and will never sing again. For those of you that don't know, too bad and for those of you that do, this was a hard one to watch.

But.

The silver lining in the episode was that it was heavily Rachel-Finn related. Rachel reminds me of myself, except way less annoying, not as pretty or as chesty-but she does remind me of my high school self in that sense. And I like Finn, even though at times I want to strangle him for being such an idiot, but right now he's not being an idiot. He wants Rachel back and he's trying and you know it'll work eventually-she's in love with him. Anyway, he sang this song to her in the episode. Not normally my cup of tea. I'm not a super fan of the song, but right now I'm totally feeling it.

Mother’s Day the Pearce Family Way

First, a lot of this:

Then some face time with one of these:

Watched a few movie trailers, including:

The good, the bad, and the weird-which actually looks kind of good; and

The Human Centipede, which I can’t quite tell if it’s meant to be a horror film or a comedy.

Then I treated my 17 year old sister like one of these:

Watched a little SNL and loved this skit (we heart Bill Hader ;D):

And then finally we left and I showered my amazing mother (who we now call “Lady Mama”-thanks Hannah) with these:

And these:

Happy Mother’s Day Lady Mama!! We love you!!!

I'm so sad I missed this. :(

It was playing at the 5th this last month and I'm so sad I missed it. Here are a couple of my favorite songs.

Come up to my place, featuring my favorite musical Aussie-Adam Garcia:

Vamptastic Updates

For those of you unaware I have a love for the show True Blood-which is weird, because honestly it's not a very good show, but whatever. I found out a few new things:

1. They are doing 6 new mini episodes starting May 2-yay! You all should know I can't wait until June!

2. My favorite on the show-Eric (Yay Team Eric!! LOL.) played by Alexander Skarsgard (yum) is dating Kate Bosworth. WTF? When did this happen? and

3. While researching if that was in fact true I found this article about how they were at Coachella-see Leah, I knew we should have gone!! Damn.

Sometimes, you just want to shoot something.

Sometimes I feel like her-I'm hot tempered, stubborn and can handle myself. Oh , but I can bake a pie.

But those qualities tend to leave one's score with 'em fellers lower than a cellar.

So I guess I'll put my pistols away for the time being and turn the other cheek.

This girl's a trip, but I like the song!

It Makes No Difference

When Whitney left on her mission, I'm pretty sure I cried myself to sleep for a month or two listening to this song. Partially because it's a great love loss song and it's impossible for me not to cry when listening to it, but also it so perfectly described my feelings in that moment. I felt SO alone. We used to joke about how I was Whitney's barnacle, but I really was. I wasn't independent and unless she was around I wasn't outgoing socially. This may be a complete shock to some of you, but I'm kind of a shy person and in some ways when she left I reverted back to the shy girl I was before we were friends.

Then I got better; I realized that a year and a half really wasn't that long, I was capable of making friendships equally as good as the one I have with her and being an independent person really wasn't all that hard.

But recently all of that has been harder for me to accept and maybe it's because I miss my little Whitneykins and I know she'll be back soon, but for some reason this song is speaking to me once again.

A quick side note, I really wish I could have found a clip that started a minute before, because the story told at the beginning of this clip is probably my favorite part of this whole movie. Oh high Rick Danko-you were magic!

Best story this weekend

Prepare yourself for a sweetness overload.

Over the weekend I got to see my cousin Molly and her daughter Bess, who is quite possibly the cutest girl I have ever met. Don't believe me? Well then here's a picture:

Adorable, no?

Anyway, back to the story. Molly told me about a conversation she had with Bess a couple weeks after seeing me at Christmas, which took place while watching some sort of dancing show:

Bess: I could never dance like that....but Sarah could.

Molly: Sarah who?

Bess: My Sarah.

Molly: You mean my cousin Sarah?

Bess: No, my cousin Sarah.

I almost died when she told me this. How sweet is that? "my Sarah". I've never been owned by a child before, but she's so adorable I really don't mind.

Another obligatory Bess shot:

She's so Rockstar!

Always be wary of how you dress for work.

In the past few years my attractiveness has increased exponentially and I’ve had to alter my dress for work accordingly. I never wear high heels or skirts anymore (brings far too much attention to the gams) and I rarely wear jewelry, accessories or super form fitting/low cut tops (for…ahem…a similar reason).

Today, I wore a pink headband with an embellished flower on one side. This was a mistake.

So, there’s a guy that works on my floor that kind of gives me the creeps (not full creeps, just partial) and I’m sure he was just trying to be nice, but it still left me feeling weird.

Let me set the stage, an attractive girl with pretty flower in her hair (that’s me!) walks down the hall towards the bathroom. A mildly creepy man, that is FAR too old for the attractive girl rounds the hallway corner and says:

“Oh hey! You look very pretty with that bow in your hair!”

The attractive girl stumbles through some gracious reply and leaves the hall.

Sometime later the two have another chance meeting in the hall where the mildly creepy man mutters:

“Pretty in Pink!”

The attractive girl stumbles through some gracious reply and leaves the hall, but thinks to herself:

“Thank you, we've established that I'm pretty, but please just go away and leave me alone!”

And

“DO NOT WEAR FLASHY THINGS TO THE OFFICE ANYMORE!”

*Curtain*

Trifecta night out and new nicknames

Me: (something bitchy beyond belief) Ugh! Can we just get food now!?!

Leah: Yes, gosh you’re bitchy when you haven’t eaten. You’re like the little shop of horrors plant yelling “FEED ME!!”

Bridgette: That should be you’re nickname!

Me: No!

Leah: Yes!! That’s awesome!

Bridgette: Hey you guys, it’s not “Little Shop of Horrors” it should be “Little Shop of Whores”! Get it? It’s like a pun!

(Sometime Later)

Bridgette: Sarah, would you sell me in your shop?

Me: Of course!!

Bridgette: Good.

Me: Hey, it shouldn’t be “Little Shop of Whores” it should be “Shop of Little Whores” ‘cause we’re tiny!

In Unison: Ahhh yeeaaahhh!!!

(Trifecta Fist bump)

Conversations of late

Me: How do I get in these situations?

Princess Leia: You’re too nice, everyone else just says no!

CocaKoler: Better Bitch than sorry. That’s my motto.

CW: All the boys here and at the UW that I’ve talked to have told me all they’re looking for is a girl that dresses modest and isn’t “scary”.

Me: Well I guess that puts me out of the running.

Princess Leia: Wait, what exactly did he say? Any punctuation or anything?

Me: No punctuation, but the “D” is capitalized.

CocaKoler: Oh, well then if the “D” is capitalized that changes everything…..no, I have no idea.

Princess Leia: He was like “Wait, what did that guy want?” and I wanted to be like “to have sex with Sarah”.

Me: Does anyone mind if I take my skirt off in the car?

Princess Leia: Well if you’re sitting next to Marky-Mark and the Funky Bunch…

Me: Well then I can sit in the front.

Marky-Mark and the Funky Bunch: Hey!

All: Oooh, Mark!

Happy Pi Day!!

Yum! Celebrating Pi day by eating blackberry pie and watching Pushing Daisies is the bestest! :D

I adore this show.

I don't know what made me think of this scene today, but it randomly popped into my head and it made me remember how much I love this show! Enjoy.
