Random Thoughts Part 2


Greg says I only have 25 minutes to write this post because we are going to dinner to celebrate something exciting (I can't tell you yet.) and we are going to see Star Trek because Greg saw The Great Gatsby with me on Monday so it's my turn to see his movie with him and this is called compromise and sacrifice and how to make a marriage work.  See both movies- end of discussion about resolving marital conflicts.  I was going to do a "what we did in class this week" post and I even took tons of pictures of my classroom and then left my camera just sitting on my desk at school because I'm real smart like that.  This post is turning into a random thoughts post where I just write whatever thing I am thinking in that exact moment.  It ain't no quality writing, but it's a great way to get thoughts out/ cure writer's block.  I hope we don't go get hamburgers tonight for dinner.  What is with me that I don't like hamburgers?  Am I unAmerican or something?  Last time we went to Five Guys and I am telling you that place is way overpriced and overrated.  My hamburger had no flavor.  And I don't even like hamburgers with flavor.  I used to like fast food a lot more than I do now but now it just kind of grosses me out.  I wore Mary's pretty dress to school today and I even took a picture in my classroom to put with my what we did in class this week post... Fail.  I forgot my makeup at home today so I didn't wear makeup all day long which is kind of fine because makeup is a hassle anyway.  I think it is awesome when you have enough confidence to not wear makeup but I also think it is important to wear makeup most days and try to look nice.  You know.  For the seventeen year olds and all.  I am reading Silver Linings Playbook and I really enjoy it except for the narrator, Pat, almost acts mentally retarded.  I think the writer makes him appear a little too dumb.  I'm excited for Memorial Day.  It's about freaking time. And then it's just one week and two days and I hate that we go all the way until June this year.  Just be done already school!  Part of me feels like getting a job this summer and the other part feels like doing absolutely nothing.  I wonder what part will win?  I am getting my eyelashes done tomorrow and I am so excited because new eyelashes make me feel so purty and isn't it a weird world with people gluing on eyelashes for other people and people like me stoked out of their minds to do it?  I want to go shopping.  I think I am a serious shopping addict.  I always want to go shopping.  If I had my way I would get a new shirt/ outfit every week but then who would pay for it?  Answer me that... who would pay for it?!?  Greg keeps looking over at me like he's nervous.  He probably thinks I'm going to write this post all night and make him late for dinner.  And maybe I am!  What do you think of that, Greg?!?  Bachelorette starts on Monday!  Holler!  I'm excited except for that I don't love Des.  Mostly  because she looks exactly like Greg's ex girlfriend and who would love that?  No one.  That's who.  I keep biting my nails.  It's a freaking addiction.  Here I am, a total grown woman at 26 years old and still  biting her nails like a fiend.  Could it be that I will bite my nails for the entirety of my life?  Yes!  I think it is quite possible.  Okay time to go to dinner now.  Greg is shooting me some serious "If we are late to dinner so help me..." looks.  Also I will be very upset if the Miami Heat win the NBA championship again.  It feels so cheap.  My stomache aches.

P.S.  Email me at thelifeofbon@gmail.com if you want to sponsor in June.  There are a few spots left.

P.P.S  You should probably enter this massive giveaway from yesterday.

  1. I was a chronic nail biter until age 44. One day I just quit and I haven't bitten them in 3 years. Out of the blue you just want to stop and will and it will be easy.

  3. I really really wanted to like Silverlinings Play Book. I just couldn't. You are 100% right about waht the author did to Pat. I couldn't stand his character. This is the one time that I will say, the movie is waaaay better than the book.

  4. I always....well not always, but a couple of times...leave things at work. I hate when that happens!! Way to compromise on the movie watching...my husband makes me do that too!!

  5. i don't dislike five guys (i'd rather eat there than burger king or wendy's), but i don't love it either. a guy i'd dated tried to tell me it was better than red robin, and that's most definitely a hell. no.

    you get your eyelashes done? i've never even heard of people doing that. the things we do...

    i liked the first half of that book better than the second. i liked the book better than the movie, for the most part. but i didn't love either one. in fact, i couldn't quite comprehend all the oscar hype surrounding it.

    and i'm with greg on this one. i'd much rather watch star trek over gatsby. but that's because i never liked that book and can't stand leo. we can still be bloggy friends, though, right?

  6. I would eat a hot dog or a chicken sandwich any day over a hamburger. Hot dogs, those are still American right? So I'm ok?

    So when you say you are getting your eyelashes done you mean you go and get them filled kinda? I have not heard of this. I am curious.

    Hope you weren't late to dinner :)

  8. I love this post, even though I couldn't breathe until it was done. Whooohooo I love big fat rants! I've seen both movies and I LOVED Star Trek and really appreciated Gatsby, but you know I'm just in love with Benedict Cumberbatch so nothing could top that.
    Oh, Benedict. I hope you liked it. :)

  13. I seriously LOVE your blog. I don't usually read blogs daily, but I ALWAYS check your because you never fail to make me laugh. Mostly because I can relate to your life being an education student and dating a mormon and all that jazz! Have fun at the dinner!

  15. YOU DON'T LIKE FIVE GUYS?!?!

    Bonnie, this could be an end to our friendship. I feel like I don't even know who you are anymore. I mean... there's nothing quite as delicious as a Junior Bacon Cheeseburger and a small seasoned fry from Five Guys. Like, I went through this period last fall when I think maybe I was anemic because I wanted a bacon cheeseburger almost every day. And I ate 2-3 a week. Delicious, I tell you, DELICIOUS.

    RE: make-up, I assume your comment on how it's important is applying to you and you alone, since you were writing stream-of-consciousness (OH YEAH, GUESS WHO PAID ATTENTION IN HIGH SCHOOL ENGLISH). I almost never wear make-up because I think it's a hassle and totally unnecessary unless it's a formal event or I'm working in the JCP salon (it's part of our dress code). Sometimes I wonder if I would think differently if my skin wasn't so good, but then I think about the few times I have a small break-out or eczema on my face, and I react by treating them with medicine, never by covering them up.

    I leave really long comments on your blog sometime...

  18. How was Gatsby? How was Star Trek? Congrats on the exciting mystery news!

  19. This post cracked me up. I so felt the same way about Silver Linings Playbook! He seemed to have the intellect of a 5th grader.. Whatever, at least he wasn't like that in the movie. Let us know how Gatsby is! I've been trying to trick my boyfriend into taking me without the trade off being watching Fast And The Furious 6 -_-
