0 Twinsday Wednesday: Finish the sentence

Well hello! My laptop was left in California last week to be fixed by my FIL, so I have had to commandeer Billy's command station in order to get my computering in. Which also makes it a little tough to blog.

To keep things simple, I will give you another Twinsday Wednesday post, in which I show you how much I want to be like Casey and Jamie from Real Suburbia :) In this episode, we are finishing the sentence! Feel free to play along, even though there is no link up button on their page. Tell them in comments if you do decide to use these prompts, too!

People always tell me... That I look like Hilary Duff. I'm serious. All. The. Time. But that's cool, because she's adorable and successful and totally hot, so I think of it as a compliment. Sometimes I see it more than others. You tell me. Here are some H.Duff pics that I can see the resemblance in.

First thing in the morning I... after snoozing a few times, I check my phone. I keep my phone on silent at night, so I always have a few emails, texts and notifications to look through. I am completely attached to this technology.

I don't ever regret... marrying young. Oh boy, there were a lot of worried people who had something to say about getting married at 22. Billy was my best friend before we even started dating, and I knew just a few months after meeting him (at 18!) that he was the man I was going to marry. He completes me. I kind of wish I had the style taste, experience, and money available that I do now for the wedding back then!

If I told you once, I've told you a thousand times... drink more water!! Not only does your entire body depend on water to function, but drinking plenty of water helps with the outside as well in giving you a clear face and hydrating your skin. 

A song I'm loving now... anything off the Haim album Days are Gone. It's a band of 3 sisters with a sound that is a little 80's and just so catchy. I can't pick a favorite, but I think My Song 5, Let Me Go, Honey & I, If I could Change your Mind, The Wire, Forever, and Falling are all amazing. I practically just gave you a track listing for the album, though haha

My usual Starbucks order is... grande unsweetened iced green tea. I will add a splenda packet every once in awhile, but that's it. When I feel like being particularly indulgent, I go for a caramel mocha.

And there you have it, my version of the Twinsday Wednesday prompts from Real Suburbia!

0 Bests with Real Suburbia

As you probably have figured out, I love me some Casey, and her having a twin sister in Jamie makes for twice the fun. So, Casey and Jamie over at Real Suburbia have this awesome Wednesday Twinsday blog post they do, and every time I read their answers, I am coming up with my own. I guess I sort of wish I was a twin? So when I saw yesterday's post where they asked the readers to play along, I used it as an excuse to create a whole blog post off of it. You're welcome to do the same thing if you're lacking inspiration or just want to play along. ;) 

Best kept secret: I hate secrets and I am pretty much an open book. I am also a terrible liar, which makes keeping secrets pretty difficult. I will keep secrets that my clients tell me while I'm doing their hair. I mean, who am I going to tell? hahaha I can just imagine y'all saying "well, duh! Us!!" Nope.

Best way to unwind: by becoming a hermit and getting cozy with a good book. Give me a fridge of sustenance and a pile of books and you might not hear from me for awhile. I'm quite slothful and love to be still, to balance out all of my crazy energy. Can you say extroverted introvert? Or the other way around.

Best way to feel beautiful: take the time to make myself up. You gotta fake it till you make it, darlin'. If I put a full face of makeup on, do my hair up, and put on a nice outfit, 9 times out of 10 I'll feel much better. I also thrive on compliments, and the best way to get those is to put in the effort. Although Billy will often give me compliments when I am feeling particularly heinous. His little comments like "Dem thighs! I just want to bite 'em!" make me laugh, and pick up my spirits.

Best quick workout: a hard run. I have horrible runs, and good runs. Long or short. As long as I get out there and do it, I've won. And trust me, it's hard enough for me to just get out the door most days.

Best recent read: I'm currently reading Losing Hope by Colleen Hoover and loving it. I am a total CH fan girl, and just love all of her books. I read Hopeless last year, and this is the companion told from the male protagonist's POV. I met Colleen and had her sign a paperback copy of Losing Hope, and I have had it on my Kindle forever, so I'm surprised I've waited this long to read it. It's so good.

Best Wardrobe staple: good jeans. I have a hard time finding jeans that fit just right, and stay within a reasonable budget, because this girl absolutely will not spend over $50 on pants. If I can find a nice pair of jeans that hug where they are supposed and don't gap like crazy between my big thighs and my no butt, I consider myself lucky. I'm always on the hunt, so give me your suggestions if you have them!

Now don't you want to play along as well? I am sure Casey and Jamie would love for you to comment on their blog post letting them know what your bests are, and maybe link back to your post if you wrote one like I did.
