Sometimes I Don't Want To Write


Oh hey blog, heyyy.

It has been a hot minute since I've been around this little blog-o'-mine, oops. Vacation kind of got in the way and work was kind of hectic. Blah, blah, blah. I won't bore you with the details.

Typically, in true lifestyle blogging form, I would blog about my weekend on a Monday (which I didn't do), and then move onto some random thought on Tuesday, and a list of randomness by Wednesday, but this week will be a bit different. Today I'm just going to share a few of my favorite pictures (that I took with my camera instead of my iPhone) while I was on vacation. Tomorrow will be a full blown recap of week-long vacation shenanigans.
Prepare for that insanity.

Anyway, today my brain is still full of struggles and I can't form proper sentences. But if I don't post, I'm pretty sure that Juliette, and Allie will hurt me. So please enjoy a few pictures of some of my family members instead of a witty post today.

Hasta La Vacation


It's Friday, it's Friday, it's Fridayyyyy.

I'm sorry that I've been slacking this week. I, unfortunately, hurt myself pretty badly during a workout on Tuesday night and I've been a write-off and just an overall struggle ever since. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it. But seriously, it's been a crazy week at work and I've had absolutely zero time for playing on the interwebz.

However, to day is the happiest of days.. because I'm ON VACATION!
Well, technically I'm on my way to work for a few hours, but then I'M ON VACATION.

You won't see me around these parts next week since I'll be in Halifax visiting friends and family and gallivanting. I'm trying to focus on work and get through the day, but my mind has basically already checked out at this point. This vacation is long overdue and I can't wait to have a solid week of not having to think about anything.


This is for those of you who don't know where British Columbia or Nova Scotia are. I'm travelling from the Pacific to the Atlantic.

So because I'm completely lazy and not feeling like thinking of something super creative, I'm going to share some good 'ol fashioned reality tv GIF's that I think completely relate to me and my vacation.



Mama June knows what's up. This is basically what I'd like to do for an entire week. I'll try not to gain 10lbs while I'm in Nova Scotia, but I make no promises.



Lord Disick, no truer words have ever come out of your mouth.
I'll take fun and relaxation for $500, Alex.



There's a theme here so far.. have you caught on yet? No, okay...



Yes please. Right now.



Um, yep. I'm definitely good with this. I doubt it'll happen in Nova Scotia, but a girl can wish...

This is basically my conclusion. I just have to take a trip to accomplish all of these things. Good thing I'm on a flight tonight.

Of course I have to #backthatazzup with Ms. Whitney today. Duh.


I'll have some fabulous people around these blog-parts next week and I promise you won't want to miss their posts!

Hasta la vista my lovelies.

Not So Sleepless In Seattle...



Happy Easter Monday (and April Fool's Day), my loves.
Whether you're at the office, or you're lucky enough to have the day off to spend with your family - I hope you enjoy yourselves!
As usual, I'm linking up with the fabulous Sami today.



This weekend, Amanda & I went to Seattle for Friday & Saturday. I loved that it was a long weekend and we started it off right. If you follow me on Twitter, Instagram, or Facebook then you may have seen the thousands of pictures that I posted on Friday or Saturday from mine and Amanda's trip - if you've seen these all, then I'm sorry for showing them to you again. Here's a quick snapshot of my weekend:

seattle-friday
1. We stopped at a casino on the way to Seattle - I won $145. 2. Space Needle 3. View from the top - amazing!
4. My 'sly' day drinking technique. Starbucks sleeve, anyone? 5. Seattle quarters, we got one made - met a guy who had them all. 6. Chihuly Glass museum
7. Our suite 8. Beer, lots of delicious beer. 9. View from our room, love it.

seattle-us
1. Starting the road trip off with Starbucks at 6:45am 2. At the top of the Space Needle. 3. Amanda photo-bombing me.
4. We failed at getting any of the glass in the shot. 5. Drinking at the top of the needle. 6. Trying to get the glass ceiling in the shot, didn't happen...
7. Amanda - I don't even know. 8. Andrea & I. Waiting in an alley to get into an underground bar, which we didn't go to.
9. Another massive fail. I cut out the glass tree.

Side note: We met up with our friends, Andrea & Zach, on Friday night to hit up some bars downtown. After leaving bar #1, we decided to pile into Zach's truck and drive to bar #2 where he'd park it for the night. Well, his truck is ridiculously high - when I opened the door to jump out of it, I literally just fell out. I now have a pretty bruise on my thigh, one on my knee, and one on my butt. I know how to keep it classy guys, I mean really.

Day Two

seattle-two
1. Woke up to the sun shining on my face while it was rising above the buildings. 2. Brunch at Lola's. I have no words to describe the amazingness. 3. Pike Place
4. Post Alley 5. Me - I swear I wasn't as pissed as I seem to appear. 6. We visited the house where Kurt Cobain lived when he died. This is the memorial bench next door.

We came back to Vancouver late in the day on Saturday. We actually stopped at the casino again (I swear, we're not gamblers... just wanted to push my luck). I cashed out at $75 so overall, I walked away with a nice chunk of money this weekend - no complaints here.

Sunday

sunday
1. Homemade brunch in a skillet - sometimes I amaze myself with my cooking skills. 2. I had no idea that custom toilet seat covers existed...
3. Ended the night with wine, editing pictures, blogging, and sending e-mails.
Side-note: This is the most random collage, ever. My face is next to a toilet seat. Moving on...

I'm also linking up with two beautiful ladies today for Bloglovin' Blog Hop!
