Do as I say, never as I do

Something’s different…is that a new hairdo?

Posted by AllieB on April 6, 2011

Is it just me, or is this The Week that Time Stood Still. I would’ve bet the farm when I woke up this morning that it was Thursday. Newsflash: it’s Wednesday, known to some as Hump Day, known to me as The Day I Always Think Is Thursday.

Hilary finally made herself useful and sent me a link to celebrity yearbook pictures. I find Ryan Seacrest’s transformation inspiring: no matter how dire the situation is, there’s still hope… holy wow. He looked pretty saucy though, back in the day, like he just snapped his fingers and said, “oh no you di’ent….!”

Ryan Seacrest definitely went to his Ten Year High School Reunion

I find Boobs Legsly‘s transformation slightly less inspiring – anyone can get a new nose. Well, and new boobs, but the jury’s still out on that one. Not this jury, mind you – I am as positive they are fake as I was positive today is Thursday, but she has not confirmed any surgeries. ATTN Boobs: no need to confirm – I have eyes that can see.

mega schnoz -> normal schnoz

Disclaimer: I’m not hating on plastic surgery, and I think it goes without saying that any animosity I might have towards Blake is firmly rooted in complete and total jealousy.

If you have a pulse, you will like this video. It’s a mandatory must-see, no sound necessary. I die.

This is what I do. I drop truth bombs.

Posted by AllieB on April 5, 2011

You know who else drops stuff? Kirstie Alley’s DWTS partner – he dropped her last night live on the air. This was totally inevitable, and it will probably happen at least once or twice, maybe thrice, more. He was a real trooper – putting on a very brave face and saying it was “no big deal” while it was clear to everyone, particularly in this photo, that he was in total agony. It’s gotta be hard to sling around something so cumbersome.

ATTN: all females donned in workout attire at Willy’s on Sundays. The jig is up – you have on spandex to accommodate your regular sized burrito and medium (personal) cheese dip, not because you’ve just gone for a yog. I’m not saying that I haven’t been this person, on occasion, but I just want you to know that I know what you’re trying to pull. Know that I know what you think no one knows. And not only do I know, but now everyone else knows, too. MUTOMBO. Truth bomb.

I think Kate is about to serve up some truth…

No, seriously. Why is it empty :|

Let’s play that game again where I take a photo of a friend/frenemy and do like the Kate Middleton blog does – it was really fun that time I did it with Sister….. without further ado, I share with you my last bomb of truth*, which is by far the biggest/most awesome/my FAVORITE THING EVER.

BOOM.

*credit: Hilary. Thanks for throwing yourself under the bus for this one.

Stuff

Posted by AllieB on April 4, 2011

  1. I went to Florida for a nice long weekend, and it was super fun. Charlotte, Stanton, and Wonder Cat Madison made sure I had a lovely visit. My tan is not quite the deep chestnut brown I’ve been known to achieve, but this is because lying out is really hard work. I’m serious – between my ADHD and my…ADHD, I am no longer capable of lying there, like broccoli, for hours on end. I think this is good – being uber tan is a total faux pas these days, and I’m trying to preserve my youth. A+ weekend!
  2. It is Hotel Restaurant Week. The novelty of these things is beginning to wear off, but I never met a restaurant deal I didn’t like – the BLT Steak option for $25 is a legit bang for your buck…hmm, mayhaps I need a delicious hangar steak to get my week started off right.
  3. A very blah NCAA B’ball Championship is tonight…I can’t even think of anything else to say. Go Butler…?
  4. ON NOTICE: Reese Witherspoon. Don’t get me wrong, I’m still a fan, but I cannot not say something about her role in Literally, the Worst Movie I Have Ever Seen How Do You Know – I honestly I had NO idea a seemingly standard RomCom could go so horribly, abysmally awry. No one did her any favors by making her character a professional softball player, but I am still shocked by how awful the movie was – everything about it sucked, and I am not exaggerating. So…minus 1 gazillion points for that. Fortunately, her newfound friendship with Chelsea Handler will help fill this deficit, but right now she’s definitely on thin ice. And I’m concerned about this pink wedding dress that people keep talking about but of which no one has photos…pink gowns concern me in general.

Sometimes I think I need to not get so riled up about celebrity actions/news.

I WANT TO GO (back) TO THERE

OH it’s Masters Week!!! Things are lookin up. YKenna, I have such fond memories of our sojourn to Athens this same time last year…shall we go again? Let’s discuss.
