He IS Risen.

So for Christmas, we stay up late and for Easter, we wake up early--- ALL I want is consistency, really!

Here's what I wore this Easter:

I searched Tumblr and Pinterest for Easter posts for my IG:

Then of course, because it's 70 and I am planning on doing some work today-- I needed to be comfortable...

And who doesn't love a wardrobe change!

Happy Easter!

I Lived, A Tuesday to End ALL Tuesdays!

I love Bravo, because they have some of the best television programs on the face of the Earth... I mean... The Real Housewives of... franchises, are seriously like crack, so addicting. I am absolutely obsessed, I honestly live for a good marathon of vintage Housewives, you know what's even better... 

I'll give you one guess...

Have you guessed yet?...

Alright, I'll just tell you... It's Vanderpump Rules, I couldn't explain why they have a show or why they're so entertaining, but my damn- I LIVE when this show is on... Especially this past Monday while gearing up for the season four finale and they played a marathon of the entire season, honestly- if you can manage- that's the way to watch ANY show... who wants to wait each nail biting week... Why do you think people love Netflix so much? Cause betches love to binge ... watch television!

But I digress...

This past Monday's season finale DID. NOT. DISAPPOINT. The What What Happens Live afterwards with Lisa Vanderpump DID. NOT. DISAPPOINT. The Vanderpump Rules Aftershow with hosts Julie Goldman and Brandy Howard DID. NOT. DISAPPOINT. 

Seriously. This. WAS. Living.

I'm not even sure where to begin... Probably with my angel of a mother, because her Kid's Baking Championship and Ellen's Design Challenge had had their finales in previous weeks so she agreed to watch the shows with me and man oh man was she in for a treat!

Katie and Schwartz had their engagement party at Villa Rosa, James and Lala were INVITED, Kristen and Stassi CRASHED, Lala heckled Kristen's toast. Katie effectively shut Lala DOWN! Brittany and Stassi MET! Jax and Stassi had a sit-down. Lala pushed, PUSHED Kristen! James kissed Kristen's face multiple times! YUCK! I cannot even...

Then this happened!!!

So I was on Cloud 9 and effectively losing my shit...

Then this happened!

I made it on tv!!

Then THIS HAPPENED...

I was just minding my own business and getting ready for a long day at work...

I sufficiently lost my shit...

I still CANNOT even. 

Like what even is life?!

Honestly, I'm not too sure who had a better Tuesday, but I don't think they could've. Just saying!

Bravo's Vanderpump Rules filled Monday evening, made my day and my next-- seriously THE BEST 48 hour Bravo induced high. 

I honestly don't even have it in me to discuss the craziness that was the WWHL and Aftershow... LVP talking to Andy candidly, dreams. Julie and Brandy's most difficult discussion being Scheana AND Lala and NOT Jax Taylor AND MF'ing Stassi Schroeder! Like-- seriously, go find that footage, cause I'm not sure what I even watched and I've honestly watched it a million and one times! IT'S. A. MUST. SEE. 

So inclusion, I'm not saying I'm a big deal, but like- I wouldn't turn down being invited to the Bravo Clubhouse to be the bartender on Watch What Happens Live, just saying.

Pump Rules Reunion is a three parter and starts next week!

Not Primary Colors... Primary Election (Day)

I got political the other day, and I liked it- so here we go again!

Today is Primary Election day in Florida, Illinois, Missouri, North Carolina and Ohio, make sure that you go out an vote today! When I think of the word, primary, it's often followed by "color" and then I'm thinking about red, yellow and blue... #creativemajorprobs

But the primary election, is a chance for the voter, you and me, to tell our delegates whom we want them to cast their vote for in the Republican and Democratic bucket for when we get to know the nominees/candidates for the upcoming election... So ultimately- not that it's not always important, but... this year it's really really important!

So your vote matters. Your voice matters. If you want change, you have to go vote. It's that simple and that important.

It doesn't matter who you're voting for, Republican, Democrat... regular human or Satan... It just matters that you vote!

Not to mention, it's your civic duty and responsibility, but you probably already knew that!

I've Got Some Questions....

Don't by Ed Sheeran

On My Mind by Ellie Goulding

I hate to be that guy... Well technically.

I know that there was a time when it was popular or current/relevant to hate on T. Swift. I'm sure everyone can think of someone who did, has, does... if you still do-- HOW. DARE. YOU. Second, I did during the RED era, hit a dark spot, but long before 1989 I came back to the fold...

So regardless everyone is always grilling T. Swift a hard time about her music--

But why didn't anyone ever talk about...

Ed Sheeran's Don't?!

This may be irrelevant to the masses but what else is new...

At work, Ellie Goulding's On My Mind, has been added to the playlist and so hearing it on a loop has me hella curious about the crossover that is On My Mind and Ed Sheeran's Don't.

My little and I has this conversation awhile back...

But this wasn't enough... 

So I made myself an iTunes playlist so I could listen to these two songs on a loop until everything starts to make sense...

It didn't take long- the classic: he said, she said. Quite literally cause Ed came out first and Ellie responded. 

After listening nothing short of a billion times, or ya know- five times, then I had an "ah-ha" moment... Then for one final listen I pulled up the lyrics-- thank you a million and one lyric sites -- so I could read along while I listened.

Don't

Don't

On My Mind

On My Mind

On My Mind

 So here are my questions, even though it kinda seems self-explanatory:

1. Why didn't we hear more about this? Why weren't there Buzzfeed articles dedicated to this?!
2. Does anyone else feel as if Sheeran is slut-shaming?
3. Also... does it seem like he's wrong?
4. Ellie's song is clearly superior, just in message alone- not a question, just an observation... stay tuned for a future post celebrating it.

I'm honestly not sure what's left to be said...

Slut-shaming is a no go for me-- so sorry Ed.

Ultimately, Ellie Goulding's On My Mind is seriously a "drop the mic" moment.

Read the lyrics and decide for yourself,
