cloud nine.

ahhhh...... finally the weekend.
even though i'll be working the majority of it, i still crave it.

me and brad have been into watching the olympics.
i can't tell if we enjoy watching them, or if there's just nothing else on so we feel obliged to watch them.
although i love brads commentary on all the men's delightful ice-skating outfits. i'm convinced it's just his cover up for him actually loving them.
and how tight some of them are. ha.

the other day we spent 5 1/2 hours in our underwear.
watched tv, cooked, ate dinner, even cleaned a little bit in them.
not because we wanted to, or even for the reason that i'm sure you guys are thinking-we literally just didn't notice.
we came home, got comfortable, and immediately started watching tv.
and while we were just lounging, it hit us that we had actually been in just straight underwear for 5 1/2 hours.
i'd consider it a good day.

heard a fantastic quote yesterday, "One of the secrets of a happy life is continuous small treats."
-Iris Murdoch

i find myself amused by the olsen twins lately.
have no reason to be, don't even like them.
i'm just amused.

heard this song on the radio tuesday.
it made me miss my sisters so much i almost drove to them.
not to mention i was on cloud nine when the song actually came on the radio.

have a wonderful weekend everyone!

love it. love the underwear days! (I join in occasionally, but nick has them practically every day from the moment he gets home from work. haha)

And, I too am a major fan of some good old Vanilla Ice. Aren't you glad we grew up in the 90's!?!
