    1. Thanks!

      The problem with my number is that even though I've had it since high school my sister's number is very similar so I sometimes accidentally give hers out to people.

      People who don't know me get really confused. Because I actually say bun-bun out loud whenever I see one.

    1. I love my number. I couldn't switch my cell services over until my contract was up because I refused to get a new number.

      I don't like to be wet. Rain makes me think of being stuck in wet clothing.

  3. My hubby has the Doctor Who theme song as his ring tone. Every time we watch an episode and he hears the theme song he absentmindedly reaches for his phone.

  5. Didn't you dedicate a post to "Blurred Lines" a while ago? Ugh now I can't find it--otherwise I'd have commented on it! Anyways, I went to your grooveshark to play it at the time, liked what I heard, forgot to tell you about it, started hearing it all over (even on my Pandora!), and finally fell in LOVE. It's SO catchy! Thanks for posting it again here :)...

    PS- You know what's weird? How there are people out there who love it and then there are those that overthink it, and even find it offensive and "rapey" :-/: http://www.buzzfeed.com/ryanhatesthis/everyone-thinks-robin-thickes-blurred-lines-is-rapey

    PS2- I also get paid to, among other things, use social media, hehe--all of which makes me *not* want to use it as much at the end of the day!

    1. I did do a 'Stuck In My Head' post on "Blurred Lines" a week or so ago. I ended up listening to it tons after posting about it and then I ended up buying it on iTunes. It is so flippin' catchy. I haven't done another 'Stuck In My Head' post because honestly as of late it has been "Blurred Lines" and I can't just keep posting the same song. LOL.

      I read a few articles on it being considered "rapey" and I can see how one can view the song in that way, but it's just a song. There are tons of songs with suggestive and/or horrible lyrics.

      Same here! I used all of those social media sites so much at work I don't want to go on them when I get home. I mean, I still pop onto Pinterest in the evening some times but other wise I'm social mediaed out.
