Lately, I have been....
1. Laughing at Ted's Fish-Man Face.
Have you seen Star Wars?
Remember this dude?
Well Ted copies that face and goes, "THE DEATH STAR IS OPERATIONAL!"So amazing.
Srsly.

2. Being cultured and seeing shows....and crap
Pocket Edward {no, he is not found} approved.
Not like I cared.
Because I approved.
And that is all that mattered.
the end.

3. Giving Sushi a 2nd chance....
And liking it! WHO KNEW?
The key is to stay away from the devil-sauce aka...wasabi crap.
It's nice to not die when eating food.
Since I pay for it.
Who pays to die?
Srsly.

4. Becoming a true twin to Melissa...
And trying Filiberto's for the first time!
And I didn't even get "diarrheaz since easterz"! (name that movie)
I ate it like a champ.
And it was fantastic for a crappy (heehee) little joint!
5. Chillaxed at the midnight release party at Walmart.
Don't worry...the party was in the training bra section.
Not the avenue I was planning on being in when explaining the birds and bees to Pocket Edward {no, he is not found}...but the bras brought about the ire prematurely.

6. Laughed at the fools at the party...
then realized I was there too.
And stopped laughing.
*crickets chirping*

8. Pondered why The Cheesecake Factory sells Plush toys...
Like, srsly...who would buy a lamespice stuffed FISH after eating dinner?
"That cheesecake was delicious...hmm, let's buy a fish to remember it!...yes, what a fine idea!"
NOT.


10. Made fun of my mom for warming herself in the warm dishwasher...
And you wonder why I turned out this way...
And you wonder why I turned out this way...

11. Wore pearls while wearing jammies.
That's how I dress up for Ted, around the house...
Aint no thang.

15. Discovered where my ghetto booty came from!
Check it out...I have African American roots!
Srsly...I do.
16. Wondered why Ted's 3D glasses were different than everyone else's...
We may or may not have been insanely jealous.

19. Then succeeded on the next try! LOOK AT THAT SNOT!
That stream IS my snot. Don't worry...it is very scientific.

20. The aftermath...
My face after being practically drowned by the saline solution.
Overall feelings towards it?
I.LOVE.IT

21. Helped promote my brother's yard business!
My brother Ty, has started an amazing yard business with his friend, Scott.
They do awesome work, so if you are in the need for a good lawn guy...
Call them up! Just two struggling college students trying to support their wives :)
---------------
I have a couple of friends in need...
First is my friend Erica. She has a dear friend who is being deployed, very soon to the middle east. If you could keep her friend in your prayers, she would greatly appreciate that.
Also, my friend Mrs. X is struggling right now. Please go to her site to see the details on how you can help their family's situation. She is a sweet person with a heart of gold.

AAAGGGHHH!!!
The hairy legs! Hahaha! :D
Your mom is a stupid idiot...looks like she's worshipping the stinkin' dishwasher.
HA! I beat everybody because I'm awesome like that.
k BYE!
The Neti Pot made me laugh because my mom has been talking about her Neti pot for years and we (me and my bro's) just figured the hippi part of her youth was taking her over in her old age. In other words everytime she says "Neti pot" we laugh until snot comes out out nose - so guess what we have no need of a Neti Pot!
Thnks for the laugh!
k, first- Oh My! I miss me some Filiberto's! Ahh, SO yummy, especially for a little hole in the wall place right?! That will be one of the first stops I make when I visit Mesa in June! And Cheesecake Factory... and Cafe Rio.
ALso, your mom totally has the right idea. Every once in a while I totally get a good face steam by opening the dishwasher! And YES, please share that enchilada recipe, I'm always looking for new ones & those are looking super YUM!
Cute post Lauren!
PS. I'm so proud of you for living on without your Pocket Edward, you are so strong, it is inspirational. Never give up hope Lauren, he will return to you.
You seriously crack-a-me up and I love it.
Poor Pocket Edward. So sad.
Ghetto booty? At least you know the truth now. lol Oh my.
Umm.. Netti Pots scare me. Maybe not for me. *shudders*
k. night.
wow - i've never been this close to first before. Neti Pots... I use the one where you "Skaweeeeeze" (name the movie.. okay, same movie, NACHOOOOOOOOoooo!) the stuff up your nose. haha It's GENIUS. When you can't breathe, you will go through desperate measures to do so!! It's liberating. I love it too. Just icky. and gag-worthy. I warm myself up by the oven.. Your mom is smart, less dry skin if you use the dishwasher. haha! No wonder you turned out so smart! ALSO, SHARE THE RECIPE, dang it!
ps.... ghetto booties are AWESOME. baby got back. and you have one VERY flat stomach. you should be proud you got at least ONE poochy body part. :D haha! I'm hilarious.
I so don't think I could do a neti pot.
I used to joke that the only steaming my face got was when I opened the dishwasher...
Do I have to say it again...you don't have a big butt! :) I bet my stomach is bigger than your butt!
I think we saw Ted at Costa Vida--we love that place! Okay--I don't think I could do the neti-pot...I hate things in my nose but I'm glad it worked for you!
My butt is 10 sizes bigger than yours don't even worry about it! haha and that neti pot is crazy! never even heard of that stuff! haha!
Isn't Les Miserables THE BEST.
Sorry, I love wasabi ; )
LOL at Pocketedward with the "blood" card.
Hooray for Scrapbooking--great job on the pages.
Share, share, share the recipe.
I also LOL'd mightily when I saw the pic of Pocket Edward with the "blood" card. Hilarious.
And I admire you for liking sushi. I went to Tokyo, Japan (trip of a lifetime!) last year around this time and even in the hometown of sushi, I could not learn to like it. I think it's because I don't like fishy smells. Ew.
Ricky is still disappointed in me for not liking sushi, however, as he is the sushi champ.
Mom is adorable in the dishwasher. Stop her if whe tries it with the oven. I'm related too!!! Who'd have thunk it????
Any news on pocket Edward?? Italy maybe??
you dont have a ghetto booty... you aint seen a ghetto booty till you have seen mine... probably a good thing you live on the other side of the world!!!!!!!!!
My dad is in love with Nacho Libre. Srsly. The part after their first fight when he's in the bathroom and says, come on baby, omg,my family cracks up at that.
Pocket Edward.... )': this is depressing.
When we use the oven we'll crack the door and stand in front of it to warm up..lol
And I would be eternally grateful for any mexican recipes you share because there are no good mexican places around here. Srsly they are disgusting.
And my booty....waaaaaaay bigger than yours. I so promise.
that.is.all.
Thank you for the mention Lauren. <3333 I appreciate it so much. And with perfect timing because he's leaving now-ish. *hugs*
I've always wanted one of those snot pots... but I'm afraid I'd choke and die from it. Ha.
I covet Ted's foolish green glasses.
Is that for seriously your leg? Um... next.
I hadd no clue what a Neti pot was. That's why I asked if you smoked it on FB. I didn't know if you were hanging with the neighbors or what. I had no clue that you stick it up your nose...
I vote for SHARE the recipe!!! SHARE! SHARE! SHARE!
Hey- if you're related to Obama, FB said I am too, so WE are related!! My ghetto booty is bigger than yours.
Thank you.
Thank you so much Lauren for posting the link. I appreciate it more than you'll ever know.
I will pray for Erica and her friend...
I have the flattest, non`existant booty in the world! Trade ya!
I'll never play Apples to Apples again without seeing poor wee Edward hanging by his feet over the flame! Any news?
Nancy Face is a genius because I warm myself the same way!
"diarrheaz since easterz...."
What is Nacho Libre for 200 Alex!
1st...I do the same thing your mom does with my dishwasher. I get cold, what can I say, I live in Utah????
2nd...I am so sad that pocket Edward is not found...sad, very sad=(
3rd...I wish my getto bootie looked like yours!!! I am jealous...
4th...Glad to know that I am not the only one who HATES shaving. My hubby wishes that I liked it, but I don't and I don't care... It helps keep me warm 'cause I live in Utah...
That is all...
That quote is from Nacho Libre!
I almost gagged when I saw the Neti pot I'm going to be honest. But, I do have a stuffy nose like all the time, soooo maybe I shouldn't hate? Yep. No more hate. I'm jealous of you being able to breath.
hmmm...my legs look surprisingly similar!
i love my secret representation on this blog. you should secretly represent me on every blog you write.
my legs look like that.
are you still veggy-ing it up? or did i see you eating something that came from cow?
Yes, if we're voting on it, I say SHARE the enchiladas recipe!
First of all, Ghetto booty? You wish. You look fantastic. Secondly, we must be cousins because Mr. President and I are somehow related too. Hooray! Thirdly, I cant believe your leg hairs. Did you go to church like that? Bleck!
We TOTALLY Neti Pot at my house! (I even taught my sons to use it. "One day, this will all be yours", I said)
I must say that the segue from your leg hair to the enchiladas took me by surprise :) But I still would love the recipe.
Haha! I laughed A LOT.
I've always wanted to try those neti pots! thanks for doing that haha! I didn't know Ty did lawn stuff that's cool!
You scrapbooking pages are sooo cute! I just started and its soooo time consuming!! I did it for like 3 long hours and got 5 pages done!
I love apples to apples thats our fam game you play it constantly like fools
I used to hate seafood forever and ive just started eating it cause i know its good for you and it delish! Went to a sushi bar grossed out and loved it! It is sooo goood!
Ted's face looks soo funny
I always laugh at cheesecake factory for doing that haha
the fish face is the best..!!
YAY FOR FILIBERTO'S! What did you get? And you liked it? Do you prefer the red or green sauce? Which FiliB's did you go to? Oh you don't understand how happy this makes me! Seriously, I want to give you a medal or something, I'm just so proud of you!
MeL - girl...I got the bean and cheese, but I didn't get any sauce! Sad! What kind is best?! Also...Ted picked it up for me, so I am not sure which one it is from. Can we please go together so you can show me the proper way?!
Good job on the ghetto booty! Shake that thing!
hmmmmm that Obama (lamespice-guy) is getting around these days. Dame and I got the exact same email. If I am related to him in any way, I will disown him.
Fili's is good. I have no complaints. It used to be known more as a dive, but they have stepped it up and the food is good. Surprisingly enough if you go on to azeats.com they always get the highest scores... and did you know The Cheesecake Factory almost failed!!!!
Anyway... good job on the scrap bookin'.
oh yeah, and sushi is the best thing EVER!!!!!!!!!
will you give some of your ghetto booty to me so that my jeans will fit????
kthanksbye
Shelby - More like, "Shelby...can I give you some of my butt so MY jeans will fit?"
Ah, the Neti pot. Don't you love it when it not only cleans out your nose but your tear ducts as well?
This post has made me miss Pocket Edward even more!
Recipe...yes!
Loved this post..
I still don't want to try Sushi..
I like you Lauren. Your fun.
Are you sick?? Is that why the pot? he-he
Are these new Enchiladas less spicy? The last ones burned my mouth off. I thought I liked spicy..you are the HOTT queen!
And ghetto booty is Hott.
Ask your Tedward.
Lauren, I can always count on you to make me laugh way too much at work.
Examples of guaranteed laughter: Lamespice, reiteration of Edward's lost state, the word scientific with snot... and of course all the photos. You are the best!
My husband totally surprised with buying Twilight at midnight. We didn't go to the whole party or anything, but it was still fun. What a guy. Totally his idea. Love him.
Also, no. I had never heard of costa vida till you started raving, and I just BARELY found where it is. I'm not a huge fan of mexican food, this is why I ask.
i love me some sushi
but i like the wasabi too... it'll clear your sinuses!!!
me and rusty went to the midnight release party at our walmart... in that same department! it was crazy... we were like 3rd in line and hardly anyone was there then we turned around and there was like a hundred ppl... they just snuck up on us! pocket edward wasnt there with me though -- i'm kinda jealous.

NACHO LIBRE!!
The scrapbook pages are the cutest! WHAT is a neti pot? that looks crazy! is it for allergies, because I have me some heinous allergy problems..
that walmart was OUT OF CONTROL. I grabbed the last 3 disc on the display, which resulted in hysteria. mass hysteria.
i love me some good sushi
try the crunch roll
that teal/white paper you used on one of your pages--welpp! totally have it. just used it, too. ghettofab.
Can I tell you that I was also quoting "diarreah til easterz" last night at Serranos? For rlz. I could seriously quote that movie every day and still think it's ridiculously hilarious. Classic. What have I told you about being ashamed of that ghetto booty?
Please share your enchilada recipe, your last one was awesome, and I would love another one to share on my recipe blog. Thanks!!!!
P.S. I like your scrapbook pages, very cute!!
My mom is trying to get me to use a Neti Pot. To use your terminology it looks sicknast!
Where is pocket Edward? I miss him and his adventures.
I got mail from Edward Cullen today. It was sweet. I showed everyone. One of my foster sons wondered how it could be possible to get mail from Edward. He's only seen the movie. I let him wonder. ;)
I want to know why you tried sushi and loved it without telling me!! After we shared our first epic adventure together...curse wasabi.
Ted makes an awesome fish face, musicals are so fun, sushi is delish! and I'm glad you gave it another try :)I wish I could scrapbook, your mom is cute so are you pearls and jammies, my legs are hairy too :/ you are cute the end.
You saw Les Mis?! I am insanely jealous!
That is my favorite line from Nacho Libre.
P.E. playing Apples to Apples made me laugh.
Your snot stream made me gag.
U.R.Fun.E.
Neti Pot! I have secretly always wanted to try one but been irrationally afraid of putting saline into my nose which I feel is just too close to my brain. I'm glad I am not the only one who sometimes lets their legs get a bit out of hand. Makes me feel slightly less beastly : )
Speaking of ghetto booties I need to go do my work out dvd...
my mom raves about her sinus rinsing, but it's scary to me.
sooooooo, i feel that i should tell you to be grateful your leg hair is lighterish. mine looks like that only blacker hair on whiter skin!
FILIBERTOS IS BOMB!!!!!!!
SO IS YOUR GHETTO BOOTY!!!!!
I have a TON of friends who mourn because they have no butt!!!!
Be Happy with what yo mamma gave you...or didn't give you. Whatever. Haha.
K so you're legs look just like mine!!!
But I'm not shaving till Summer!!!!
Umm and your scrapbook pages are Swell.
I feel like some kind of weird stalker, but I found your blog through your awesome Twilight one and have been laughing my silly butt off since! You are hilarious!
And your scrapbook pages look awesome!
Nachoooo! Not gonna lie, completely sad you lost Pocket Edward. Oh well, at least you still get him into pictures! do you know how to use photoshop? just wondrin
Your freakin' adorable and hilarious!
there's too much to comment on about this post.
bahahaha.
i love everything about it.
Love the way you dress up those polka dot PJs! Lucky Ted! You crack me up!
TO SHARE. Yes, to share the recipe.
I JUST HEARD ABOUT NETI POTS LAST WEEK! Now I'm convinced they're nuts. Don't worry, though...I just ear-candled over the weekend, and have pictures to post soon, too. I guess we're both gross.
haha love the blog! it makes my heart full of joy everytime i read. but what is the neti pot? what is it for? haha. have a great day!
Firstly...
I LOVE THIS SONG!!!! (It's Wonderwall.) I kick boo-tay singing this on Rock Band. 100% baby.
Secondly...
I want to be you when I grow up.
p.s. Is Ted a Star Wars junkie? 'Cause Scott is. Big time.
Dear Lauren--
Your shirt in the chopsticks pic is simply fabulous... maybe you should let me in on your shopping secrets.
<3
Neti pots Rock. 'nuf said.
Not a lot of people can get away with taking a picture of a doll in the bra section. Nicely done.
As for the leg hair and the snot, not so nicely done.
That picture of Ted with the glasses is my fave.
And why do you want a flat butt?
Hi Lauren, thanks for the heads up on Mrs. X, I contacted through email and am excited I will be able out whenever I have the extra cash. I feel for her and the family. It makes it very difficult for everyone involved.
ummm i LOVE my neti pot... i'm glad you are down with the neti!
Bah I just had Wasabi sauce yesterday for the first time I think. And it burned my tongue, made my nose sting, and eyes water. EWE. Couldn't eat the rest of my sandwich that was LATHERED in the nast. And you're really skinny and should love your ghetto booty because some of us (maybe myself included)are jealous because we have nothing on our backsides. Sad day.
you with nasal stuff all over your face? awesome.
Nacho Libre! THat's like my favorite movie quote lol
i found your blog through some mutual friends...you are hilarious! hope you don't mind me reading. and i think you should share your new delicious enchilada recipe!
let's scrap together... just dont touch your hairy man leg to mine.
ps please tell me more about the neti pot i hear about it ALL the time.
So.. don't get mad...
I copied your hair. you know, with the braid, the messy bun on the side.
but we live in different cities so it's okay! I'll pay you royalties for it because it turned out so cute! Thanks for the idea!
looooooove my neti pot when i'm sick. definitely don't think i would take pictures of me using it, even though the end result is just so wonderful. breathing is awesome.
i think your booty is cute. i envy it. send me some of that if you don't want it cuz my butt is flatter than flat.
and HOW can your mom be so cold in ARIZONA that she has to warm herself in the dishwasher heat? amazing.
