Celebrating Confessions Blogfest

Friday! I can't believe it's here already! Woot!  VikLit always puts on a great Friday celebration! 

This week... 

• My son got the cameras he needed for his photography class, which would have cost me an arm and a leg if I didn't know great people that would lend theirs to him!
• Color Me Rad was awesome! Go here to read about my blog post on it!

• My mom is taking the kids tonight so the hubby and I can have date night! I want to watch a scary movie.
• Today is Confessions day! See below my confessions.

And with it being Friday, August 30th, the Confessions bloghop is here!

Jackie @Bouquet of Books and I have so much fun hosting blogfests that we decided it was time to do another one. This one is geared toward confessions...

These are my confessions **cue Usher music**

A confession is a statement made by someone, usually a personal fact that they would not prefer to keep hidden. 

My first confession is a little risque. Ready?

When I was a junior I found out my boyfriend of two years had been cheating on me. And you know what they say about a woman scorn...

While in "the throws" of foreplay one evening when his parents were out, I had my chance to get even. Wicked even. Let's just say that while he was expecting to get his way, I got mine by giving him a golden shower. (who says revenge is best served cold)

I know what you guys are thinking... WTF! But he had it coming. He shoved me off of him and screamed WTF (but not in acronym form). I smiled coyly at him and while putting my clothes on, I explained I had found out about him and "the-girl-that-shall-not-be-named". He looked at me with wide bright eyes and sunk to his bed. I finished getting ready, grabbed my purse and walked out.

That was the end of him.

On a more not-so-scanky-note, I will confess that I put things in the grocery cart just to keep my 3 yr old from throwing a fit but when she's not looking I put them back. Don't look at me like that! She forgets about them anyways.

Want to confess? And remember... a confession is usually something you're not proud of (or maybe your are) so give us some dirt.

It's not too late to join! Go here to find out all the details.

Have a good weekend!

Race Day Wednesday

This Saturday, Jackie and myself are "competing" in Color Me Rad 5k.

How does this differ from other races I've done... well for one, it's the first one I've done where someone douses you in colored corn starch.

And, besides the bike race, this is the first one that I will be doing with my husband. Not that we are going to be anywhere near each other once the race starts, he will probably be running with Jackie's husband, ahead of us. And it's the first race that Jackie and I have done together... and hopefully this will inspire her to do more with me! *hint hint* *wink wink* *clears throat, coughs Dirty Girl Mud race, coughs*

Another difference in this race, I plan on making tutu's for Jackie and I to wear. My outfit consists of a white tank or T and a pair of yoga pants... the tutu is to cover my rumpshaker. No one wants to see my fanny in a pair of tight, painted on, yoga pants.

♫♪ My milkshake brings all the boys to the yard... ♫♪

Yeah, not so much!

The last differences, It's not a boring, plain 5k. I won't be covered in mud. I'm not being chased by crazy faux zombies at Run For Your Lives trying to tear away my football flags. And my bum won't kill for weeks on end because it was glued to a bike seat for 4+ hours at Urban Adventure Games or UAG.

What plans do you have this weekend?

Don't forget to sign up for our bloghop happening August 30th! You have 9 days to get your confessions in order. Muahahahahah

Celebrate the Small Things + Bloghop Reminder

Ahhh, it's Friday! The weekend is upon us!  VikLit always puts on a great Friday celebration! 

This week I'm celebrating... 

• This past week the kids have watched their little sister all on their own for the very first time. They are super excited because they got paid for it. Too bad school starts on Monday cause they really had fun! They really showed us how responsible they are. So proud that I don't have to worry.
• Dentist appointments for the kdis tomorrow and a party for the husbands department at work. (We work at the same company)
• Today I'm sitting at home relaxing with the kids on their last day of summer vacation. I definitely not missing work.
• Don't forget to check out the new bloghop, Jackie and I are throwing August 30th. Check it out below. And remember... you don't have to dig deep for a your confession... just share something about yourself that you normally won't. i.e. "I sample grapes before I buy them." See, super simple!

Jackie @Bouquet of Books and I have so much fun hosting blogfests that we decided it was time to do another one. This one is geared toward confessions...

These are my confessions **cue Usher music**

A confession is a statement made by someone, usually a personal fact that they would not prefer to keep hidden. 

Spill. We want to know what not-so-dark secrets you have. If you want to share the dark ones, by all means, but this is the world wide web, so... yeah, that saying "What happens in Blogosphere, stays in Blogosphere" ... That probably won't happen, so use your own discretion.

It can be fun facts about yourself, important memories, or a mixture of both. 

We just want to learn more about you.

Examples:
Do you secretly love a one-hit-wonder band?

Do you snack on food at the grocery store?

Do you want to share a recent dream? Dirty or clean *wink wink*

Are you a road-rager? What things do you do when you’re road-raging?

The sky is the limit when it comes to confessions.

• On Friday, August 30th, post your confessions.
• Make sure to post the Confessions badge on your blog.
• You don’t have to be a blog follower but we'd appreciate it.
