I Have a Case of the Randoms and Book Giveaway-itis
Before we even get started, you have to jump over to SheReads and get in the running for one mongo gift basket of yumness. I really really really want one of you guys to win it. I would only ask for 50 percent of the calorie-laden loot. (As your friend, it would be my duty to make sure you didn't eat enough to get cavities, sugar rush headaches, or muffin tops.)
Did you watch the Superbowl? Me neither. But I did watch the commercials. This was my favorite:
I love Betty White. She's so good with comedy. She gets it, you know? Subtle.
I also liked this one by Career Builder. (Skivvy warning)
The Brett Favre ad was kinda funny. Even I got that one, and I don't watch football. And the E*Trade baby? “Milk-a-what?!” Loved it. You can now send Baby Mail. Check it out HERE.
Speaking of commercials, this one wasn't on the Super Bowl, but I cannot stand a particular Kay Jeweler's ad. Do you know the one?
Am I the only one who was just WAITING for that guy to pull out a meat cleaver? It's so creepy. What a girl won't do for diamonds.
So my friend Jocelyn is training her cat Crockett to use the toilet. Yes, seriously. And she uses a device called a CitiKitty. So I had to YouTube it. Instead of finding helpful vids, I found the most annoying cat owner ever. (and this is not jocelyn. I repeat: this is not jocelyn.)
This has been around the social media block, but have you guys seen this “Save the Date?”
You know that SkyMall catalog on planes? Where you can get bunion warmers and saunas for your dog? I saw THIS BOOK on Amazon and thought it looked even better.
Sometimes I pop into random blogs and this is one of them. The blog author, Brooke, is el preggo, and had a few things to say about it. But it was her husband's take on it all that cracked me up.
That brings us to this week's giveaway.
To win a copy of Lisa Wingate's Talk of the Town, you gotta tell me a fun blog I should start checking out. My daily list of blogs has really dwindled (not sure that's such a bad thing), and I need some new reading material. What's a good blog to visit? Leave me a suggestion or two in the comments. Winner announced Friday. Can't wait to hear your suggestions.
I need to go. I'm expecting to be at work a matter of hours before we all get sent home for one heckuva winter storm. God bless you, El Nino. God bless you.
