It’s officially summer in Nashville – Movies in the Park 2008 is HERE!

I can’t wait!  And I’m really bummed that I didn’t know last night was Jurrasic Park.  At any rate, there are some GREAT movies this year.  Dirty Dancing, The Goonies, Shrek 3.  Get out to Centennial Park and have some FREE fun.  Yay!

Just what I’ve always wanted to become… a Simpson!

Anyone who knows me knows that I’m a sucker for a great online interactive marketing gimmic.  Snakes on a Plane prank phone calls from Samuel L.?  Totally.  Romantic calls from Fabio thanks to “I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter”?  Hilarious – sent it to all my friends.  Creating my own Simpson lookalike?  It was fun, [...]

Ikea trip!

While I’m still waiting for Comcast  (see my blog directly below this one) to answer my call (now I’m at over 2 1/2 hours on hold), I thought I’d go ahead and post about this past weekend’s trip to Atlanta for my first visit to the mothership, also known as Ikea!
 My friends Amy, Beck and [...]

It’s Movies in the Park time! My favorite time of the summer!

If you’re looking for the 2008 list of Movies in the Park, go here.
The thing I look forward to most, every summer, is Movies in the Park at Centennial Park on West End. It is the MOST fun thing of the season. Getting friends together, taking a picnic, listening to some great oldies [...]

I seriously *heart* Target!

Spent the evening shopping at my favorite store, ever (like you need me to even say what it is, but it’s Target).  It’d been over a month since I’d been there – veeery unusual!  I cannot really explain exactly why I love that store so much, but I do!  It put the hurt on my [...]

Oh NO!

Ok, so a couple of weeks ago I innocently requested a catalog from Ikea.  Little did I know what I was in for, and how it would affect me.  Stayed up last night until 11:30 looking at their catalog, and I’m only HALFWAY through it.  Target had better watch out, because I might be starting [...]

What a brush!

Ever since my hair grew long again, I’ve had issues with my hairbrushes.  Of course, yes, I buy the cheap $6 ones at my favorite store, Target, but still.  The hairbrushes that I’ve purchase in the past have all been the ones with the cheap plastic bristles.  So, every day I would pull a huge [...]

Death of the shoe

So, tonight I had a funeral.  A funeral for one of my most favorite pairs of shoes.  I’m in the midst of spring cleaning, switching out winter clothes for summer, etc.  Well, that involves tackling my huge collection of shoes.  So, the first pair that I decided needed to go was a very cheap pair [...]

I’ve realized that I’m cheap

So today I had a realization.  I’m cheap.  Now, I’ve always known that I love a bargain.  I mean, L-O-V-E a bargain.  But, today I realized that beyond that, I’m cheap.  But my definition is more along the lines of being thrifty than being a penny pincher.  Just wanted to clarify.  Anyway, so I was reading yesterday in [...]
