"I wanted to do Hood Rat stuff with my friend"

Oh the joys of Thanksgiving.  I was introduced to this wonderful video last night after a little turkey.  I dare you to try not to laugh while watching it.

Luxury Television.

So, Jacquelina and I may have been a little bored last night around midnight.  Luckily we found something really fun to do.  We made a talkshow, Luxury Television.  We had a lot of special celebrities come by the show and had wonderful interviews with all of them.

First up, the original Hot Mess, Kim from 'Real Housewives of Atlanta'.

Next, Beth from 'Dog the Bounty Hunter'.



Britney Spears was let out of the house just for this interview.



We drug Angelina away from Brad and the kiddies for this:



Lastly we had my personal fav, Paris Hilton.  That's hot.

Twilight.

So, I liked it.  I just didn't love it.  The book was soooooooooooooooooooooooo much better, but I think that is always to be expected.  It really bugged me that they didn't follow the book closely enough, everything felt out of synch.  I had my idea of what everything looked liked, and nothing was close, so that was just kinda weird.  Oh well.  Now, for a more in depth analysis, because I'm sure you all 'really' care what I thought.  :)

Observation #1:  I thought 'Emmett' was a lot hotter than 'Edward'.  Not really the best way to start out the movie.  ('My' Edward is just way better looking.)  I thought R. Patts did a very good job, but as far as the whole 'being the finest creature on the planet', not so much...

Observation #2:  The Cullen Family was hardly in the movie at all, which was weird.  Esme was only in like 2 scenes,  Jasper had like 1 line...   Plus, weren't Alice and Bella like 'friends'??

#3:  Why did they have to make Jacob cute?  I don't even read the wolf parts in the books.

#4:  Ok, the part where Edward sucks the venom out of Bella's arm was just bizarre.  Seriously, my friend Cassidee and I were hysterically laughing.

#5:  Overall it was just too awkward.  And, I'm usually fine with awkward.  But, there were parts in this movie that were just uncomfortable because they were so poorly filmed.  It wasn't as cute and lovey-dovey as it seems when I have read the book.  But whatever, I'm glad that I saw it and I am oh most definitely glad that I didn't see it at midnight.

Now, I'm off to find an Edward of my very own.  Ciao.

I'm off,

To go see Twilight.  I really hope that it's good and doesn't ruin the books for me.  

Oh, and I found this funny little gem earlier today.  It's the 'missing' Twilight script.  Haha.  It's really just a bunch of pics from the movie with some creative changes to the dialogue.  I thought it was pretty funny.

I don't cry.

Ever.  But, whenever I read this website I get very teary eyed.  Having a wonderful family is definitely a gift, and I think I've got one of the best families around.  

P.S.  Can I tell you how much I LOVE it that most of my cousins have blogs??  I don't know what I would do without this great technology.  I love all of you.

Slip-n-Slide

So, I was chatting with Shacklyn on Facebook about an hour ago and she reminded me of a very funny story.  This happened probably about 5 years ago, so I was 16.  I had come home from high school one afternoon and didn't feel good at all.  I went and laid down in the family room and fell asleep.  Next thing I know, I am throwing up and making a b line to the kitchen sink (why I didn't go for the bathroom IDK!).  Unfortunately I was already really sick and so I threw up all over the wood floor in the kitchen and I slipped and fell.  So, I'm sitting there covered in my own vomit, totally out of it and feeling like a complete idiot.  The best part is that there were a bunch of neighbor kids over playing and they caught the whole thing.  

I probably shouldn't have told this story because it's extremely embarrassing, but I did it so YOU could get a good laugh.  Jac and I are thinking of doing a re-inactment and bringing you this lovely memory on video.

P.S.  If you're wondering why the all the posts today, it's because I'm totally graduated now and so I have too much free time on my hands!

Confession.

I have a lot of dreams about teeth.  I mean, like pretty much every night.  Sometimes I have nightmares where I think that one of my teeth fall out, or I have like embarrassingly ugly teeth.  Last night I woke up in a panic because I was 'sure' that my wisdom teeth (or 3rd molars, or tooth #'s 1, 16, 17 & 32, or just simply the 8's) were coming in again.  Now, I know this is just me being a total worrier, but really I think about teeth like all of the time.  If I can feel the tiniest bit of plaque anywhere on my teeth I have to go brush.  And I floss at LEAST once a day.  If you knew what about the biofilm layer and all of the other junk that hides out in between your teeth, you would make flossing a top priority.  I am also a firm believer in ACT restoring mouth wash. 

Also, I think that Orthodontic care should be considered just as important as regular dental check ups.  I am a firm believer that there is coordination between common ailments and misaligned teeth and malocclusion.  When I get to dental school this is the area that I want to really research.  It is just starting to be discussed and researched and I want to be able to really solve some of these problems and help people!  I wish it was December 1st already...

P.S.  If you are bored, Google 'supernumerary teeth'.  Very interesting.

What I'm listening to.

So, I thought it would be cool for me to post my 25 top played songs from my iTunes.  I have a lot of music on there so for a song to make it to the top 25 I must listen to it A LOT.  So, here ya go.  If you click on the song title it takes you to the video.  You're welcome.

Happy Birthday, Peter.

Today this fine gentleman is another year older and 'hopefully' wiser too.  Happy Birthday, I lovah lou.

Attention:

I am calling out most of the blogs I read.  UPDATE YOUR BLOGS PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!

And for those others of you who don't have blogs, make one.  I promise you'll enjoy it!

Instead of going to London,

I'm considering following the Jazz around for the rest of the season.  It seems that the only way they can win is when they have someone cheering for them.  I oh most definitely could be that person.

In other news, I worked today.  When I left the house this morning it was pitch black outside.  When I left the office this evening it was pitch black outside.  Do we see a theme going on here?  Luckily, I get to do it all over again tomorrow.  Yay me.

Celebrate.

My blog has been around for a whole year as of today. In other words I have been luxurifying your lives for 365 days. I think that is rather luxury. Here's to many more years of 'The Luxury Life".

Love Story.

I am 'loving' this song by Taylor Swift. I think most of her songs are great and they are easy to sing along with. Plus, how cute is the video!

EBAY here I come.

I'm thinking of 'selling' my NBA fan status to another team. The Jazz aren't playing with any heart, and I can't handle it anymore.

Top Options Include:
1- Cleveland
2- Boston
3- LA, (yes, that officially makes me a traitor, but hey, at least they give their fans something to look forward to)

Thanks David Stern and Co. for making me a very unhappy girl.

Please,

Go to NBA.com and vote for Deron Williams to be an All-Star. He oh most definitely deserves it.
I am thinking that I would like to go to a car store where they can put stickers on your car. I think that driving the Escalade around with a sign that says "8>3, vote D. Will" would get a lot of votes. I wonder what my dad will say...

?

Remember when I wanted to name one of my children California and my life coach vetoed that idea?? What if I named a boy Korver? I kinda like it. It's unique and it's a wonderful name sake.

Chivalry isn't dead after all.

I want, NO, I NEED, a boyfriend like Edward Cullen. Every man should read the Twilight books. I think they'd learn a lot. I am 'SO' excited for the movie to come out next Friday. I am going to start reading the book over again right now!

Dear L.C.:

Here is what I wore yesterday:

Note that these are not my actual boots.  Mine are 'a lot' cuter.  They are BCBG from Nordstrom, but I don't think they sell them there anymore :(.

You can buy this dress here.  But, I have the gray one.  And I wore the white long sleeve t underneath the dress.  It was 'really' cute.  And obviously, I filled it out better on top!  HAHA.  And, I wore some yellow jewelry to accessorize.  

Hurry up and come up here so we can go shopping.

Have a wonderful day at the gym!

Love,

D

EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW.

So, I was on my way to the SLC for work this morning.  I am totally minding my one business, cruising down the road when I hear honking.  Not like panic, accident, annoying honking, but like the kind of honk you do when you honk at someone you know to say hi.  I'm like what?  So I look over and there is a guy in a giant red truck waving at me.  Needless to say I was grateful for the big engine in the Escalade and I punched the gas and got as far away from creepy truckdriver man as possible.  I know I'm really cute and that I have a hot car, but please don't try and be 'friendly' on the freeway.  It is uncalled for and is potentially very dangerous.  Plus, what made him think I would even be remotely interested.  As if.

P.S.

I am glad that so many of you have already told me that we have the same favorite Christmas song.  That makes me happy.  And,  I really can't stop looking at my blog.  I think it is one of the cutest things I have ever seen!  I think that when I grow up I shall decorate for Christmas in pink, green and red (with sparkles of course!).

Happy Christmas!

Yeah, so it's still almost 2 months away, but it is snowing here in Utah already. I really love Christmas, particularly Christmas music. My fav album of all time is Donny Osmond's 'Christmas At Home'. Seriously, I've had it since I was 10, and I LOVE IT. My favorite song is "Mary, Did You Know?", it is so beautiful. Anyway, I hope ya'll are getting into the Christmas spirit early this year!

I don't know...

I found this sneak peak of the Twilight movie. It's not the greatest quality, but hey, what do you expect? It seems REALLY cheesy to me. What do you guys think?

What Was I Thinking?

So, my friends on the Jazz blog that I am a member of thought it would be fun to create something called a 'Fantasy Basketball League.' I was like, ok this could be fun. I think it is something that most college age males participate in, in hopes of winning and to keep away from doing their homework. Since I am graduated and don't have a lot going on, I thought that it would be a 'perfect' waste of time... Haha. Anyway, I don't know what I have gotten myself into. There is like a 500 page rule/strategy book that I'm supposed to read and there's going to be a draft and frankly, I don't even know how to get on the actual website. I'm a hot mess. However, I did come up with a strategy of my own: Pick the 12 hottest players in the NBA. KK is obviously #1 with D. Will coming very close behind at #1.1. So anyway, I will probably lose, but that doesn't matter, right?

UPDATE: Luckily I picked KK as my #1 draft pick in the first round. Yes, I was ridiculed. But, hey I am loyal.

Halloween 2008

Apparently when you're a little bit older, it's harder to find an original costume.  Luckily Peter came up with this.  Pretty ingenious.

Raise your Voice.

I voted today (early).  Now it's your turn to get out and baROCK the vote.  HAHAHA.  (I know that will get a few of your hearts racing...
