Every once in awhile I just need to purge my brain of a bunch of unrelated information. It helps me control the crazy.
So, that being said, I apologize in advance for the disconnected randomness that’s about to happen.
It might be best to just nod your head and pretend like it all makes sense.
- TJ Maxx has really stepped it up with their selection of lamps.
- In the last few episodes of “The Hills,” Justin Bobby’s hair looked like Prince during the “When Doves Cry” era.
- Zaxby’s chocolate milkshakes are delicious.
- I think these kelly green shoes are adorable. But I wonder if I could ever incorporate them into my daily fashion routine.
Thoughts?
- The CMT Crossroads with John Mayer and Keith Urban is Music Happytown, and everybody needs to visit. I LOVE IT.
- Football season starts in six weeks. This is excellent news.
- I read an interview with Simon Cowell the other day. He said that he wouldn’t be surprised if Harry Connick, Jr. is the new judge on American Idol next year. DO WE DARE TO DREAM?
- David Crowder Band’s “Oh, Happiness” has become our theme song for the summer.
- I haven’t seen any of the Twilight movies. And I’m one of seven people currently residing in the US who still hasn’t seen The Blind Side. So I’m pretty sure that I’ll be asked to leave the country soon.
- Last night, right after I started putting the bedroom back together again, Alex told me that he was proud of me for finishing with painting. Then he said, “You know, Mama, I’m SO proud of you that I think I may have to cook you breakfast in the morning.”
And then: “But Mama? I don’t really know how that would work out since I can’t cook.”
Bless him.

okay-I get the no Twilight thing. It doesn’t appeal to everyone including me. However…you are a die hard football fan. And love Mississippi. And the SEC. You HAVE to see The Bindside.
ditto what joyce said…no on the twilight, you MUST watch the blindside.
love those shoes!
I have not seen either movie. 1. b/c that vampire stuff is just a little much and 2. my husband is a State fan and refuses to watch the Blind Side.
I got The Blind Side for my birthday in April and still have not watched it yet.
I cannot tell you the flak I’ve gotten over not seeing the Blind Side. “But it’s about adoption! You of all people HAVE to see it.”
Sadly, my rebellious streak has reared its head and now I refuse to see it JUST BECAUSE. Even if my Sandy Bullock did win an Oscar for it. THAT’S how ornery I’m feeling.
No Blind Side?! Oh my goodness. You must stop everything as of right now and go rent it. I’m totally serious. You will LOVE it.
You seriously have not seen The Blind Side yet? What are you waiting for? Ha!! And your son is too precious!!!! :)
I don’t often comment, but really, I had to say, that Alex of your has such a precious heart.
That is so cute!
P.S. – Thought I was the ONLY ONE that hadn’t seen any Twilight movies!
Those shoes! I WANT!!!
http://sixgreggs.blogspot.com/2010/01/you-capture-color.html
Harry as an AI judge?! They ARE listening to me!
and since I haven’t read or watched Twilight anything except Twilight Zone and I too have not seen The Blind Side…may I suggest that when they make us move that we move to Puerto Rico?
I haven’t seen Blind Side OR any twilight movies, but I’ve read all the aforementioned books. So that counts for something, right?
Also, you lost me with John Mayer. Yuk yuk yuk! Did you read any of his interview? He is one cocky somebody.
Love the shoes, but also don’t know how I would incorporate them in my daily life. I’m just not that fancy, though I admire those who can pull it off.
I have to have the shoes…where oh where did you find them???
Harry Connick, Jr.?! I would actually watch Idol then. Love him-swoon!
Yes, the college football countdown is ON!
I have no desire to see or hear about Twilight anymore. BUT, since you are Southern and know and appreciate football, watch The Blind Side. It’s like watching a friend. It really is a fun movie.
I haven’t seen Twilight or The Blind Side either. Maybe we could have our own country or something. You could totally wear those green shoes there.
I’ve not even read the Twilight books that are floating around work. Ugh.
Not seen Blind Side either….I’ll move with you and let’s choose somewhere with lots of shopping opportunities. Oh! And good restaurants. And warm weather.
Love the shoes: with jeans and a white sweater in the fall. Green accessories to tie it together.
Harry Connick, Jr. = swoon
I’ve also never seen Twilight movies or The Blind Side, but I read the book, and let me tell you, those “Christian” coaches should have their mouths washed out with soap. Great story. Terrible language.
I would not worry about not seeing Twilight. I saw the first one and could not understand what all the hullabaloo is about. It’s just 90210-Vampire/Werewolf Edition. I am floored by how many grown women are salivating over that 17 year old werewolf – kinda disturbing.
I had heard the hype about the Blind Side, so was determined not to like it. I was wrong. It really is wonderful.
You have the sweetest little boy (not including mine of course, though my son has never offered to cook me breakfast)!
I think the shoes are super cute, but I never wear green….
Yeah for football season approaching and you really would enjoy the Blind Side. :-)
If you have those shoes…(in a size 10) I won’t care that you haven’t seen the Blind Side. (It stinks not having a SteinMart around. The clsest one is 2 hours… That is assuming they are at SteinMart of course, because the shelving looks like SteinMart.)
I think if you can walk in those shoes you should definitely get them!
I haven’t seen the Twilight movies either, but the blindside is another story. I’ve seen my fair share of sports movies because of my husband, and I LOVED the blindside. I love Sandra Bullock too though and have watched the specials on the real life family, so I might be biased!
I LOVE those shoes. I am shocked you haven’t seen The Blind Side what with it being about the South and football and all. Plus Sandra Bullock makes an awesome Southern mama. ;) And I really think you should buy those shoes.
Love that Crossroads, it is on my DVR permanently. You gotta catch the one with the Zach Brown Band and Jimmy Buffet…also permanently on my DVR. So good they even mesmerize my 2 year old!
Yeah for football season…Big 12 on Saturday, NFL on Sunday! Can’t wait!
I read the Twilight books before they cast the movie and the Edward in my imagination is much hotter than Robert Pattison, so I am boycotting those movies. I also haven’t seen The Blind Side simply because everyone keeps telling me I HAVE TO SEE IT! What is wrong with me?
I just saw, “New in Town” with Harry Connick Jr. It had gotten bad reviews, but I really liked it!
Forget Twilight, but you really would be blessed by “The Blind Side!” It is all about all things southern…so you would be blessed.
PS Your boy? He is the sweetest!! I can only pray my girls will find such a tender-hearted man someday.
I’m pretty sure football season starts seven weeks from tomorrow, unless your counting some sort of scrimmage game? LOVE Harry! Since I was 15 I’ve loved Harry. He is the best! EVER!!
I want to dream! Please let me dream! Oh, Harry. I would be so very happy.
I haven’t seen the Blindside either. Not for a lack of want. Just haven’t made it happen. I have seen Twilight. If you haven’t read the books and aren’t a junkie, you probably don’t need to bother.
Cute shoes!! You should really get them. Surely you can pair them up with an outfit or two!
Harry Connick, Jr as an AI judge?? OH, I hope so! I really, really do!
I loved the Twilight movies but I don’t think they are must see movies. The Blind Side however, you should probably make a plan to see that. I think you’ll love it!
YAY for football season! Go Huskers!
I think you’ve subconsiously avoided the movie cause they’re sending him to Ole Miss. Could that be the reason? :) but it was a good movie despite that.
love the green shoes. so happy.
Your boy is so sweet! I love it! Also, those shoes are adorable! And, I haven’t seen any of the Twilight movies (or read the books) and I haven’t seen The Blind Side either, so I imagine I will have to leave the country with you as well!
6 weeks until football season! Hooray!! I trust you read this article in USA today about the Bulldogs? Just in case you didn’t, here’s the link: http://www.usatoday.com/sports/college/football/sec/2010-07-11-dan-mullen-mississippi-state_N.htm?csp=34sports&utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+UsatodaycomCollegeSports-TopStories+%28Sports+-+College+-+Top+Stories%29
Hail State!
1. I think you’re approaching the shoes all wrong. The question to ask is, “What WOULDN’T look good with those shoes?” Nothing. Nothing at all. I have green wedges, and I wear them with whatever I fancy.
2. “Oh, Happiness” is my 3 year-old’s favorite song. Every time we get into the van we have to listen to it. It never gets old!!
3. I am halfway through your pastor’s book, and cannot stop talking about it. Thanks!
So all I can think to say it YES…get the green shoes! and wear them with EVERYthing!!! They are sooooo cute!and fun!
Dido on the Twilight….I’m really sick of it, what with it being EVERYWHERE!
And yes, you do have to see The Blind Side, it’s a “cryer” and a “laugher”….and I dont even care for football!
You have to see The Blind Side. Have to. Tonight. You’re gonna love everything about it!
You have to watch The Blind Side. Tell us what you think about “the watch” that everybody is wearing because of Sandra Bullock wearing it in the movie.
Do they have those cute shoes in another color?
first, the green shoes. I would make work! Cute.
and second: HARRY ON IDOL!! Would totally redeem that show for me. Totally.
hugs!
steph.
don’t feel bad. i haven’t read or seen the twilight movies either. and i haven’t seen the blind side. but i want to. just haven’t yet. so if they kick you out, i’ll be with you.
honey-child, I haven’t seen any of the twilight movies OR the blind side. Haven’t even read all the twilight books. You make me feel better.
I’m curious if dumping all these random items on the blog really helps with the crazy cause I could use some of that! So I’ll try here by answering some of your questions:
Harry Connick – Yes
I really think you should get those green shoes and start a new fashion trend!
John Mayer and Keith Urban – Wow!
Your sweet boy – love that he wants to do something nice for you even if he doesn’t have the logistics down.
Thanks for helping with my crazy, too! ;o)
The green shoes- pair them with your white jeans or a denim skirt or capris. A bright lemon yellow or hot pink are good with that green too. Picture a white gauzy top with. a yellow tank and denim capris with some accessories to tie it together.
Wow- I got a little carried away there
I am pretty sure I will never see a Twilight movie. I also haven’t seen The Blind Side. It is on my Netflix list but seeing as I’ve had my current Netflix movies since May, I will not be getting The Blind Side anytime soon.
I’ve not seen The Blind Side.
I’m not proud of this. I HAVE seen two of the Twilight movies (1 and 2). I’m REALLY not proud of this. (No, I don’t plan on seeing the other two.)
You must see The Blind Side. If only for the cameos by current and former SEC coaches. Seriously, it is such a good movie. Sandra Bullock is so good in it.
Six weeks til kick off!!! I have two words:
GO GATORS!!!!
I have not Seen Blind Side either, more of us than you thought out there huh? I have seen the Twilight movies, 1, 2 and 3, but only because I have read the books. I’m not into the vampire thing, but it’s more of a love story and I’d take Edward Cullen any day! If you haven’t read the books, give them a try.
I think kelly green is the new nuetral. I think you need those shoes, and I think I may also need them.
Harry on Idol? Yay!!!! I love him, Idol needs some southern spice.
Completing projects is certainly breakfast worthy. Teach that boy how to make pancakes and prepare for a full day of kitchen cleaning. Maybe toast in the toaster would be a better choice.

I had never seen an episode of The Hills until yesterday when my daughter forced me to watch the marathon with her until 11 in the PM. I concur about Justin Bobby’s hair and in my mind I call him Ricky Bobby.
Who has time for anything in this world. i haven’t seen a movie or read a book.
Coffee is on.
“I haven’t seen any of the Twilight movies. And I’m one of seven people currently residing in the US who still hasn’t seen The Blind Side. So I’m pretty sure that I’ll be asked to leave the country soon.”
Me TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I’ll happily go into exile with you.
Three words: Buy. The. Shoes.
Once you get them home and she all the happiness they bring you and your tootsies you’ll be AMAZED at what all they will go with :-)
Trust me…My name is Pam and I’m a shoe-o-holic :-)
