Why you should befriend a blogger

O-M-G. I know I'm a sucker for stupid Bravo TV but did any of you catch last nights Princesses: Long Island? It's so dumb but I had my dad hooked. He thought it was stupid and hilarious and couldn't turn away. So heres a gif that was literally too funny, yet not from last nights episode.

For starters, if you are the boyfriend/siblings/parents&family/besties, prepare for your face to be searchable somehow on google images. Always make sure you look your best because you never know when your blog friend will use it. And you might never know if your friend doesn't tell you she runs a blog. So basically just look real good together all the time. Or not. Eh, you choose. 

For shits and gigs.

(Hello Dark haired men!)

They also expose (some) of your life. Like your name. and your relation to said blogger. and fun facts about your dog (if applicable), or why you are a great boyfriend. We know our limits but isn't it fun to share about bits of our lives? And have people that care? Yeaaaaa. I think so.

They can promote your products or business! Likeeeeeee I am for my real life friend Jenna at Ripped Jeans and Vinyl! She is seriously the definition of hipster. And I want to be her because she has the best fashion taste. Jenna is new to blogging but go stop by and say hello! 

**She also has stellar music taste**

heeeellooo sockbun twinnies

They can get free things for you from give-aways...or even just find out about great products online from ALL the resources that are available to them at their fingertips. No exaggeration. Still have yet to win a give away...but I have the rest of my life ahead of me. Real deep, right?

They know their ish (most of the time) about graphic design/html. I promise it will help you in one way or another. Don't forget it! You're forgetting. Don't.

They have friends across the country/globe. Do you?

Shout out to Lauren in Virginia (who I'm meeting TOMORROW(!!!)), Carrie in Lousiana, and Lauren in Texas.

SO:

..if you are a real life friend and don't tell me you read my blog HI you rock yet I'm not too sure how I feel about this. Since ya know I dont promote my baby of a blog to ya.

..if you just don't have a blog but read my crazy life blog anyway...MAKE ONE. It will distract you from Candy Crush I swear. 

..if you are a bloggie friend, say hello! I don't bite. Unless I haven't had my Iced Coffee fix for the day yet. Then it's debatable. ;)

Off to DC with Lauren and Boyfriends tomorrow! So excited #Blogdate

+Have any great DC must-see's? Email me!

grinding my gears, dawg.

Aka a post dedicated to ranting on all the things that bug me.

Sorry for saying dawg, yo.

Danggit. 

1. In the year 2013, still wishing people Happy Birthday via facebook. I was scrolling through my facebook when I realized I needed to wish a HBD to A, B, C, and D. I am biffles with B so of course I send my love. A....I went to middle school with and haven't seen in years. C....is a random person I enjoy stalking because she was a teen mom (no not on the TV show. Yes, I'm a bad person) so maybe I'll keep you, and D is my ex boyfriend from the 9th grade. Survey says....I think it's safe to start deleting people on their birthday. Happy birthday to you, sucker.

2. No-reply bloggers. I think everrrrrrry blogger can relate with this one. Unsure if you are one of these lil' boogers? Read over Jenni's post from Story of My Life. Then the world will be a better place

3. Proving I'm not a robot. Aka, CAPTCHA. Aka no. Soooo many people have these on their blogs but why! It's such a pain because I get very excited to post my extatic comment and then it's like ohh hey enter words and numbers that make no sense and this is how we will prove you're not a mechanical thingy-magig (if that's even spelled right). 

4. Posers. See I thought this was a thing of the past. Say....like middle/beginning of high school. Especially being a poser about things I love...like Frank Sinatra, other musical whoa-ers, etc. You can't just post Dave Matthews lyrics and hashtag every word relating to them and expect to become the number one fan. Especially with pageants. Sorry but no, you do not know more than I do. Unless you've competed/ know someone that has. Or are Mr. Trump of course. Psh, Phony. 

5. When real life friends and family alike find out about my blog. It's so good to know that I'm totally not alone about this, though, because I thought I was. Until reading Helene's post, I didn't realize that bloggers I look up to keep it a secret! Or try. And when the cat spills the beans. You want to run and hide, just like Lizzie's animated twin. If ya know what I mean.

shesh this is painful to look at after a while...

What grind's your gears?

To simply brighten your day:

Thursday's can suck. You are ONE day from the weekend, and it just so happens to sometimes be the longest day ever. Find yourself giggling while reading my post. Hopefully with some morning/afternoon coffee, or even a big bite of your favorite guilty pleasure food. Yes, you deserve it!

"If you like cute dog & baby stuff, you'll love this" so accurate and true.

Yes. 

Dawwww, thanks Ry!

2. B and I's relationship. We've been friends for about 5 years now, but dating for only (almost) 1. We can fight like a married couple (our friends tell us), push and joke with each other playfully like brother and sister, and best of all be who we want to be with each other. He rocks!

1.  The life I live. Yep, it has it's up and downs trust me, but everything I've done is a lesson learned and has gotten me to where I am today.

Mommy day!

 

Wish your mommy a happy mothers day! I am so thankful for mine, being that we've been through a lot together. She's still a rockin' lady and I wouldn't trade her for anyone else! Enjoy these cute quotes too! Found them all via Pinterest! Stop what you are doing and call your mom, wish her a happy mothers day or just hug her and tell her how much she truly rocks,
