I Don't Have a Halloween Post

Today is Halloween. One of my favorite days of the year. And this year sucked because I did not do anything Halloween related at all. Unless you count handing out a little bit of candy at my parents last night. But I didn't go to a pumpkin patch, I didn't carve a pumpkin, I didn't watch any scary movies, and most importantly, I didn't dress up. So I don't have the cool post that everyone else has today. So instead I'm just going to ramble, because I feel as if that's what I do best. I'm also procrastinating, so there's that.

The Cardinals lost the World Series last night. It was a depressing night in the St. Louis area. But when I think about it, there really is nothing to be sad about. Yeah, they lost the biggest series of the year, but they made it all the way there. Only one other team can say they made it to the World Series this year and I feel like that's a prettyyyyy big accomplishment. The Cardinals had the best record in baseball this season and they had an amazing team. So even though they lost last night, I feel like they won all around because they are the best team ever and have the best fans ever (I know, you've heard it all before) but seriously, I'm a fan, what could be better. :)

Also, since I have no costume pictures of me from this year, I thought you would all like to see what our favorite celebrities dressed up as this year, including Miley Cyrus. She dressed up as Lil' Kim. From the 1999 VMA's. Lil' Kim loved it. And if you want to see more pictures just check out her lovely Twitter feed.

And after seeing that I stopped looking at other celebrities costumes because well, my head hurts. But she's just being Miley, right?

In other celeb news, the Jo Bros have split. Broken up. Donzo. Separated. Divorced. Whatever you want to call it. I didn't even know they were still together soooooo...

Kendra Wilkinson, our favorite girl next door, is preggo again. Why do I feel like the last thing I read about her was that her and Hank were getting a divorce? I guess that wasn't true, or it's not happening, or it still is. Who knows. 

In a blink and you'll miss it move, CMM went from being engaged for seven years, to being single, to being off the market again with some new girl. And he no longer looks like a weirdo with his long hair. He looks like the Lucas we all know and love from OTH. ... Now let me go cry in the bathroom for a second while I remember all the great times the cast of OTH and I had while I watched them all grow from little high schoolers to wonderful adults.

This is what I've been listening to all day. I just have decided that since I didn't celebrate Halloween at all this year I might as well get a jump start on celebrating Christmas. And I have no shame in any of this. The girl next to me at work has been listening to Christmas music for like a week already. And who can resist listening to Micheal Buble? Seriously though.

So I lied, I just remembered I have two pictures to show you for Halloween. Sorry about that.
 A little Throw Back Thursday for you.
And here is Tatum, looking like an idiot with his tongue hanging out, on his favorite day of the year. Not joking, he seriously loves Halloween. But this is the only costume he will wear. I have tried multiple times to put different costumes on him but he won't keep any of them on. Only this one. And he is scared of everything, I'm not kidding, except for Halloween. He will sit out on the porch with my mom and greet all the trick or treaters the whole night.

New Wardrobe Needed

So I started a new little job about a month ago. 

*Side note, I think I start every post with "So". Whatever*

Anyways, I started a new internship at school and it's pretty darn amazing if you ask me. I love being able to work with social media all the time and I was just given the opportunity to help put together a new website. I'm looking forward to all the cool opportunities and experiences I am going to have with this job. But along with this job comes a need for a new wardrobe. And because I am usually dressed in "I didn't even bother to shower before I went to class" clothes, I think I need to revamp what I am wearing. For my birthday my mom helped me out a bit by getting me a few new shirts and some new pants that actually fit me. And because this is the only picture I took of the outfit Thursday you're welcome. I did get three compliments on this outfit yesterday, btw.
Also, because Friday is jeans day across the nation in places that require you to look cute the rest of the week, I took full advantage of that. Not saying my boss doesn't let us wear jeans during the week if we want to. But Friday is actually "jeans day" so yeah. And because I can no longer wear Cardinals attire when they are playing, I got to wear my Cardinals shirt Friday since it was an off day. As you can see in this picture too, I really do make the cutest faces ever. I also have no shame in taking a selfie in the bathroom at work apparently..
So the point of this post you ask? Didn't you know it was to show you how good I can look while taking selfies in bathrooms? Right, the actual point. So I've been searching Pinterest (obviously) for some cute business casual looks. And I decided to bring you some of my favorites since I figured you all (for some strange reason) don't follow my Pinterest boards and would like to see what I've been pinning lately. I'll save my already started Christmas list for a different post. Maybe one in say, the end of November or beginning of December, when it's socially acceptable to do such a thing..



 Minus the big sweater
And then I discovered this girls blog. And I'm pretty sure I'll be here the rest of the day being jealous of how cute she always looks and wondering how in the hell she gets the ideas of putting these outfits together. I feel like it has to be a full time job in itself. So here are some of my favorite outfits with the link back to the posts from her blog.
This post just makes me wish I had 242789035784032578402 dollars to go spend on all the new clothes I could ever want. Unfortuantly, I am a broke college student. So I have to just get one piece of clothing at a time. Maybe one day I will have built up a wardrobe that is "Pinterest worthy".  Anyone have any ideas for clothes? What is your favorite business casual look?

My Favorite Group of Guys Ever

So, it's Friday. I'm ready to go home and take a nap. And it isn't even noon yet. But that's okay because like I said, it's Friday. And I'm off all weekend. And the Cardinals are in the World Series. And the series is tied 1-1. And I learned I am no longer allowed to wear Cardinals attire on the days that they play in this series. Why? Well, Wednesday I had my new Cardinals shirt on (courtesy of my Mom and Dad for my birthday) and they lost that night. They lost bad. So yesterday I wore a different outfit (that I got for my birthday from my mom and dad as well) and they won. And it was wonderful. So, I guess no more wearing Cardinals shirts on days they play. Which is why I'm wearing one today and not tomorrow. But tomorrow they bring it home and I am hoping they win the next three because those are all home and for them to be able to win it at home would be amazing. And I'm rambling now. But this post is going to be totally dedicated to the second most important group of men in my life (the first being the men in my family obviously).

Because I am slightly obsessed with these guys, I have been watching video after video all week and now I will bring you some of the best I saw. And the two newest rally songs that I may or may not have downloaded to iTunes to be put on to my phone later today...





These guys seem like they are some of the funnest people to be around. Not joking. Just look.


And here is a video to get you super pumped for the Cardinals to win the whole thing. Because honestly, I totally and completely believe that they are going to win the whole thing. I mean come on, they are the Cardinals.
