Get Fat.

Yep. I said it. My resolution for this year is it to get fat. I'm talking "I need my own TLC show" fat. Ok - but not really. (calm down Lynne, i'll fit into the BM dress) Every time I make a resolution the opposite seems to happen. Like the year my resolution was "no boyfriends" for a year... yea - I ended up getting engaged - quite the opposite. I really need to get my butt in gear and try to find a workout routine that works for me. I tend to get a little bored doing the same thing over and over (hence why I loved working in sports, it was something new all the time). We got a wii fit for Christmas. It's been fun. So that's new. And i'm trying the couch to 5k - again. Here's my lame excuse for not finishing it the first time - it was WAY too hot to run. I prefer running in the cold - i'm weird. 

So with the freelancing i've done some save the date magnets and Christmas cards. It's been fun... i'm also quite the poet. :)

Also - still no soda... 168 days! GO ME! I'm also an officially certified webmaster as of December... only five months to go! Hopefully launching my personal website soon!

Follow me on twitter - keep my butt accountable for doing the Couch to 5K!

Hear ye - hear ye...

So I freelance on the side if someone asks. I'm always happy to do it and it's actually fun for me to do it. (it also gives me another excuse to use my mac.) Here's my latest... names have been changed because well it's the internet. :)

And here's a shirt I designed in class... here's the background... we have to design a class shirt and this is what I came up with. My teacher disapproved it and said it would have to be approved by school admin - and that shirt would not be approved. I still thought it was funny. It says

"wanna see my source? -future webmaster" (source is the html of your webpage :) )

GO HUSKIES!

Queen of Random Links

I post more links on my facebook than I know what to do with somedays... so i'll share them here... Enjoy!
Starbucks came out with iphone apps! I love them! 
They are currently testing the pay with your iphone in Seattle and Cali. It also has your 
registered card on the app, so you can always see your balance. It's pretty sweet.

Starbucks Mobile App
This link was from the UW vs LSU game. Some of the slogans are pretty funny and i'm sure 
some LSU opponents can use these somewhere!

Seattle Sports Net
Funny stuff on here... FAIL Blog

The next trend in this video??

 
These girls are 7 years old... they are great dancers - but maybe dancing a little older than they should be.

I puffy heart Will Ferrell. :)

This postcard was in response to schools protesting President Obama in the classroom.

Purple reign... purple reign...

Woot-woot! My dawgs beat USC on Saturday with a score of 16-13. And it killed every ounce of me not to see it on tv. I was glued to my computer watching twitter, facebook, and gametracker.  From the updates and friends pictures it sounded like an amazing game to be at! I'm still on my "husky high." :)

The "B" word...

There comes a time in your life when you must face the big "B" word... and for me the word is "budget." After the family grant for the iMac, it's time for me to buckle down. After looking at my balance sheet from my bank account, it seems we eat out alot. So, in attempt to keep me in check and not eat out during the week - i've decided to create a weekly menu. I've had this cute little 8.5x11 paper for years with that concept in mind. I had to go dig it out of one our moving boxes. So my goal for a month is to spend $20 or less a week on lunch/dinner. Some of you may think - "that's easy," but i'm an impulsive buyer and i'm use to "if I see it, i'll buy it." So now the blog hunt begins for cheap recipes online!

I went to the University of Washington and worked for the football team there - so it was very exciting to hear my Huskies won a game yesterday. The last win came in 2007. :( Quite a drought. Washington State University (Wazzu) are the in state rivals, so to celebrate football season here's a great picture. It was from Apple Cup 2006 in Pullman. This little kid is Lincoln. He's a huge Husky fan and can name every D-1 mascot ever. Very awesome.

And to update - still no soda. Lots of sugarless kool-aid and water. My husband hates my kool-aid. :)

$1 Jamba Juice

Because really - who DOESN'T love Jamba Juice... well - maybe my husband. But I hope you can benefit from this link!
