my year in Tumblrs.

Lacey did one of these over on her blog and I like to make lists too. Here goes:

My victory speech at the top of the mountain. I was hungry.
Jenna - are you planning on returning the jacket or gloves? Is that why the tag is still on? Been there, girl!
bwhahahahah! me thinks those may be lift tix!
I’ve never been skiing, so you’re probably right. Also, I went to find my tacky Christmas sweater in my closet from last...

Orange Cup
jenmcnasty:
This place seriously rocks. They recently built one in the Domain in Austin and I’m in love. Aesthetically, the place is very pleasing to the eyes. The interior is all very modern looking and the floors, walls, ceiling, and chairs are all white. The workers wear orange shirts that say “T-shirt” in simple white letters, or an orange hat with “Hat” sewn on. Also, the store in Austin...

Donaldsonville got a shout out on the AT&T commercial with Luke Wilson!
(sometimes it’s the little things…)
BTW - I went to Donaldsonville on Christmas Day and somehow got lost. There is like one road and I got lost.
GINUARY
I make fun of Rhonda for pronouncing ‘January’ as ‘Jinuary’ and I’ve made her pretty self-conscious about it. Every time she says the word she pauses and tries to pronounce it correctly or after she says it as ‘Jinuary’ she comes back and pronounces is correctly.
Now I realize, she may be on to something. I need to start drinking gin if I want to hang...

Bathroom standards
Regarding Kevin’s post about which way the flap of the toilet paper should go:
I have heard people argue over this my whole life, and honestly it has never made a difference to me which way it goes. I also shared a bathroom with brothers most of my life and they never even put the roll on the dispenser - so if it actually made it on the dispenser, that was a plus.
Also, the other common...

Austinites -
What are your plans for NYE?
Update: I have NO plans and am hoping to make some soon, so I need suggestions. :)

A more rhetorically correct version of Alanis Morisette’s “Ironic.” We tried doing this with “You Oughta Know” and it didn’t work quite as well.
Lates Baton Rouge! Smell ya later!

How one odd duck says 'no' to sex →
When it comes to sex, some female ducks have taken “no” to a new level. They have evolved vaginas with clockwise spirals that keep out the oppositely spiraled penises of undesirable males, scientists have discovered.
When the female wishes to say “yes,” she has some tricks that make it easier for her preferred mate to slip his corkscrew-shaped penis easily inside and...
Mom just said “When I had those contacts, I could see for days.” and of course I echoed “Ferrr daaaze!!”

Old people and facebook
I used to be reluctant to share my internet life with my elders, but have outgrown that a bit. If my mom or relatives added me on facebook, I added them back. I figure if there is something they don’t like on there, they can feel free to block me or whatevs. Facebook is purely for non-confrontational catching up with someone (a virtual peeping tom, if you will) and I’m okay with that.

Mills: I hate Lacey Sydvish: She’s the best, which means she’s the worst.
I’m kind of picky about who i follow. I’m not into following and unfollowing people randomly. I can see people on my dashboard for months before i follow.
But this post basically means Lacey is awesome…and i must follow her.
I feel like I single-handedly slowed down productivity today at [insert...

Meetup Recap
Highlights
Glenn bringing a present that was wrapped in a plastic bag and duct tape. I was pretty sure it was a bomb and was only slightly let down when it wasn’t.
Mills getting a kick out of this list that Sydney posted. He said that list could apply to anyone. “I LOVE being embarrassed in public and being interrupted.”
Sydney writing an apology note for our waitress on the...

Beignets!!!
I had a friend ask me if I wanted to do brunch today and offered up some places. I haven’t had a beignet in forever so I asked if we could just go to Coffee Call today and she agreed to it.
It’s sad that the foods I want the most when I come to Baton Rouge are the worst for me - fried seafood, beignets, Cane’s…

WatchChad parodied my first birthday video
“The fact that baby Lacey loses interest during the climax of the movie regarded as the pinnacle of human film achievement, and looks away like “this is totes boring,” but then snaps her head back when pootie dances makes me lol uncontrollably, baby lacey is hilars!.”
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again - Chad gets...

WatchI found my first birthday video on my Mom’s laptop. I’m trying to edit it, but quickly threw together this intro for it. Notes: I had to use fonts, music, and software that already existed on her laptop for this quick video, so I don’t want to hear it….Chad.
Also, try not to explode after you view my one year old adorable-ness.

Perhaps watching Jersey Shore with my parents wasn’t the brightest idea.
