I'd like to thank the Academy...

I hope all of you had a terrific weekend! Mine was fun. I went bar-hopping with my friend Will on Friday night, made some extra cash helping my dad out with his job all day Saturday, and then stuffed myself silly with junk food at a Super Bowl party on Sunday.

Now it's back to spying on neighbors and taking more showers this week, I suppose. Haha.

In the meantime, I wanted to share a few things with you.

I recently received some awards! Yay!

From my super awesome amazingly talented friend Melanie, I received...



The Gorgeous Ladies of Blogging award! Thanks, Mel!

    Congratulations on the awards and thanks so much for passing it on to me. I love that award, so cute. I also gave you an award in one of my recent posts but I can't remember whether I told you or not. Its great to hear that you had a fun weekend. Mine was amazing because I went to see the Taylor Swift concert. I might post about it sometime.

    I wanted hot wings SO BAD on Super Bowl Sunday, but I did not get them and pouted all day.

    They are the essential junk food.
