Happy St. Patrick’s Day! I was a rebel today at work and wore my very special St. Patrick’s Day socks that I swore I’d wear no matter what – and that I did! Professional? Probably not. Fun & Awesome? Most Definitely!
How did you wear your green today?
This past weekend, we were suppose to go to our St. Patrick’s Day parade, but poor Nick, he got so sick this past week. It all started with Waffle House. Nick was heading back to Starkville for 2 days to do some work and then planned on coming back home to go to the parade with me and some of our friends. Because I’m a “time” needy girlfriend, I suggested we have breakfast before he leave town, but he wanted to leave early, so I was willing to wake up way too early to meet him at Waffle House since they’re open 24 hours, ya know. There were 2 people working… the waitress and the cook. We ordered the All-Star Special to split and Nick got his eggs “over-easy”. Basically… they were barely cooked, but that Nick… he’ll eat just about anything… so he ate them anyways. He started feeling sick, of course. By the time he arrived to Starkville, he was not feeling good at all, he ended up not even going in to work. Poor thing was laid up in bed for the 2 days he was home. On top of the sickness from under-cooked eggs, he was also experiencing a nasty cold/congestion. He decided to still come back to Jackson, but wasn’t up for the parade or drinking with friends (understandable). Needless to say, we will no longer be eating at the Waffle House – in fact, we then had the epiphany that we said the exact same thing last time we ate there… years ago lol.
Our plans were low key the rest of the weekend while he was on the mend.
I won the Whitney English Day Designer last week and it arrived this weekend – Two words…. IN.LOVE. I haven’t figured out the best way to use it for me yet, but I’m loving it so far!! I’m hoping it will help me take all of these ideas in my head to the next level!
I’m really debating about joining in that Blogger Happy Hour that Erin @ Living in Yellow hosts…. this months guest is Bonnie and well, I adore her too!! I do have questions that I could ask, and the session has been reduced to only $15 now, but I’m so hesitant about spending money on this because of all of those other questions…. Will it work? Will it be worth it? Will it be awkward talking to these people in a group chat? Will they like me?? Because I really like them, and I really want them to like me lol. Basically, joining in on this Blogger Happy Hour is a major blogger decision and I feel like the shy little girl in elementary school who wants to ask the big kids to play ball with her. Any advice on making this decision?
Have a good week, friends!

I think I would be too shy to participate in a blogger happy hour…either too shy, or too technologically non-savvy. I think I could maybe work up the courage if it was free…but I’ll just keep to typing. 😛 So sorry about the over-easy egg sickness for him! That sucks!

Psh DO NOT feel bad about those socks, I’m so glad you rocked them!! I know Nick got sick at Waffle House and that should gross me out, but damn girl, I miss those waffles!!! Ugh the South > the North

Poor Nick!!! I feel the same way you do about blogger happy hour. I know me….and I am shy around people I dont “know.” (Even if I have followed their blog for the last year and a half.) So I would probably just sit there and let other people talk the whole time and not really take a lot away from it to have paid for it. Plus I am almost like….ahhhhh….these are famous bloggers and i am a wee little thing….almost like movie star status haha.
