It’s happening. I’m on the #hashtaghumpday bandwagon.
This week is spring break. I don’t even know what I’ve been doing with myself except I’m really glad insomnia picked this week to set in. Because, you know, why sleep when you actually have a chance? #imexhausted
I bought three new candles yesterday and none of them were the scent I actually wanted because the Yankee Candle outlet didn’t have the Chocolate Truffle. But the ones I bought do smell like other food. #imfatsomycandlessmelllikecake
Grocery shopping this week included me buying salad dressing, which I rarely buy because I make my own. After we all ate some of it, we realized the expiration date was in November. 2014. #acmeistryingtopoisonme
I have been trying to read The One Hundred Year Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared for roughly a month but I keep realizing that I have other books due back before that one and I get sidetracked. #readerproblems
Does anyone else get annoyed when “friends” share stories on Facebook without either a)reading the whole post/article or b)fact check before sharing? No? Just me?#checkyourshitbeforeyoushare
Baseball is back and all is right with the world. And since it’s April, that means the Mets are actually doing well thus far because they haven’t had enough time to fuck it up yet. #buttheywill
Let’s talk Mad Men for a minute. I mostly liked this week’s episode. It had one major flaw, though. Well, two if you count not enough Peggy/Stan screen time. But the one I’m referring to is the horrible atrocity that sat on Roger’s face. I don’t care that most people love it or it’s the quintessential 70s. It made me irrationally angry. #makeitstop #iwanttoshaveitoff
Roscoe P. Coltrane died (well, James Best, the actor who played him died). Jill Duggar had her baby the same day. That is the most bizarre example of the circle of life I can imagine. #obscurecelebritygossipismyjam
This post has no pictures or gifs because I’m too lazy to go look for some. #noshame
I wish I knew just how much of my brain is being taken up by song lyrics because I’m fairly confident that that’s the reason I can’t remember basic things like feeding my dogs or washing my face in the shower. I comfort myself with the fact that my taste in music is spectacular and I’ve made room for what’s important. #musiccomesfirst #clearly
It might not be crazy warm out but it’s warm enough where I can FINALLY turn off the heat in my house. #iloveloweringmybills
Last week, I bought a jar of pickles for our Seder. I ate almost the whole jar by myself in one day. #dontevencare #dontliketoshare

Happy Wednesday!

I think that mustache was a not so subtle way to say “Hey, it’s 1970 now!” and Weiner used it to signify a time jump (again). I don’t like the long straight hair on the ladies. I liked the 1965 hair better.

HAHAHA that when I have to pee pic, so true! Plus it made me smile because look at all of those throwback signs, like Taco Bell from back in the day!! Yes I notice things like this. OMG that’s crazy about the salad dressing, gross!

SMD @ Life According to Steph says
This morning I washed my face with body wash. WTF.
I absolutely hate Roger’s mustached. I cannot have him go out this way. It has to go. We get it, it’s the 1970s. Give him more acid but for god’s sake get rid of the mustache.
In other Mad Men news, Joan saying I want to burn this down was everything.

#LovedThis. Few things:
-All my Yankee candles are food (actually, dessert) scented
-People sharing things on FB without reading?! HATE (and wrote it about it : http://www.blogher.com/think-you-post-some-tips-you-share-article-online
-I love me some Roger Sterling but that mustache atrocity needs. to. GO.

Dude, I was super worried you were going Mad Men Spoiler me and I’m so glad you didn’t.. and I’m glad I’m not the only one who loves Peggy.
I’m to the point of turning on my AC just to be able to close the stupid window and not have a layer of yellow on absolutely EVERYTHING in my house. Mr. Scrooge doesn’t agree so I’m just hoping my power bill is cheap this month so I can go invest in extra allergy meds..
I HATE when people don’t fact check or fall for Onion articles, etc. I just feel like my friends should be better than that. Even the ones who I merely tolerate.

I hate it when Yankee candle doesn’t have the scent I want, then I spend elevnty billion hours smelling all the other candles until I find one.

Hahaha that pee meme is my life. Why does that always happen?!?!?
I am fairly certain that song lyrics take up far too much space in my brain as well. Nothing pisses me off more than buying an expired item from the store. It’s like they pulled one over on me or something.

I wonder about the song lyrics constantly. I can remember all the words to a song I haven’t heard in 20 years. Why, brain, why?! I could have solved world hunger by now if my brain weren’t full of song lyrics.

Ew on that expired ACME purchase! And glad you haven’t given up on The 100 Year Old Man! The reason I don’t share stuff on Facebook because I don’t fact check. May as well just be ignorant in my head instead of in public.
Amber says
I turned off my heat too. Yay for warmth!

hee I love the hashtag post! And yes, I hate when people share stories without getting some basic facts or checking to see if it’s some kind of hoax….especially when it’s a couple years old!

Your baseball post could remove “Mets” and insert “Astros”, and it works for me too.

i want to read that 100 year old man book too.. sometimes i wish i could just take a year off and read ALL the books on my list, but then I’d also have to never link up with you guys, or go on to goodreads because i’d just keep adding more!

I have eaten a jar of pickles – and because of this I cannot judge you. *smiles*
And seriously, I love the smell of “food” yankee candles – but my husband likes PINE…. It’s an epic battle.
Recently the battle on FB has been my cousin sharing posts from people who are upset with School dress code issues, and it being sexist – – and I’m like, seriously? I couldn’t have even walked out of the house like that.

My husband’s coworkers bought him the one that smells like bacon. It’s so disgusting I make him keep it in the garage, never to be lit.
Laura @ Life with Lolo says
Hahahahah I died about the candle one! I always like food-smelling candles too! I also go through whole jar of pickles in a day #noshame. Thanks for linking up!
