I find myself not paying attention while driving, I am in a different world.
You take really great pictures.
You are always there for me.
You show me the way when I am lost.
I can't concentrate on working, I just want to hangout with you.
I want to text message with you all the time.
I want to listen to Pandora with you.
You have shown me so much...
Tricked you! You thought this was about someone i'm sure, but nope we are superficial...it's about a phone. Who knew.
thank you IPhone..Merry Christmas to us!!
Me and Stef decided our phones weren't good enough so we bought new ones..
Great decision. So great.

Listening to...as should you.
Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros.
"Up From Below"
Home.
This song has been on repeat in the cave and in our cars for 2 days.. hippies gotta love them.
Alabama, Arkansas, I do love my Ma & Pa
Not the way that I do love you
Holy roly, me, oh my, you’re the apple of my eye
Girl, I’ve never loved one like you
Man, oh man, you’re my best friend, I scream it to the nothingness
There ain’t nothin’ that I need
Well, hot & heavy, pumpkin pie, chocolate candy, Jesus Christ
There ain’t nothin’ please me more than you
Chorus:
Ahh, Home
Let me come Home
Home is wherever I’m with you
(2x)
La la la la, take me Home
Baby, I’m coming Home
I’ll follow you into the park, through the jungle, through the dark
Girl, I’ve never loved one like you
Moats & boats & waterfalls, alley ways & pay phone calls
I’ve been everywhere with you
That’s true
We laugh until we think we’ll die, barefoot on a summer night
Nothin’ new is sweeter than with you
And in the sticks we’re running free like it’s only you and me
Geez, you’re something to see.
Chorus
“Jade?”
“Alexander?”
“Do you remember that day you fell out of my window?”
“I sure do, you came jumping out after me.”
“Well, you fell on the concrete and nearly broke your ass and you were bleeding all over the place and I rushed you off to the hospital. Do you remember that?”
“Yes, I do.”
“Well, there’s something I never told you about that night.”
“What didn’t you tell me?”
“While you were sitting in the backseat smoking a cigarette you thought was going to be your last, I was falling deep, deeply in love with you and I never told you ‘til just now.”
“Now I know.”
Ahh, Home
Let me come Home
Home is whenever I’m with you
Ahh, Home
Let me come Home
Home is when I’m alone with you
Home
Let me come Home
Home is wherever I’m with you
Ahh, Home
Yes, I am Home
Home is when I’m alone with you.
Alabama, Arkansas, I do love my Ma & Pa
Moats & boats & waterfalls & pay phone calls
Ahh, Home
Let me come Home
Home is wherever I’m with you
Ahh, Home
Let me come Home
Home is when I’m alone with you

Polka Dot Trot
marcbymarc jacobs Spring 2010
When I was 7 years old my favorite outfit was a purple leotard with black polka dots...who knew that so many years later my love for polka dots would come right back...
A few days ago, I was given a pair of black tights with brown polka dots on them..I am in LOVE, and it seems that everywhere I look they are showing up. For a while, when I would see them on anyone they were worn all wrong, almost ruined it. Just simplify it, don't over do it and you are bound to look cute. Here are some looks by 2 of my favs... Marc Jacobs & Rebecca Taylor.
Get your polka dot on...

Oh Christmas Tree
It snowed all night Saturday and all day Sunday, so of course we chose the best day to go to the Christmas tree lot... We pulled up and walked in the gates of Christmas, we stared and stared..all the trees began to look the same. Finally we spotted "the one"! The worker man, a.k.a hot Christmas tree salesman... came out of his wooden shack to give a price quote. We asked him if he could tie it to the top of my Jetta, we were shocked when he said he would just drive it to our house for us. No charge and he took 10 dollars off our tree...um, hello yes you can do all those things for us thank you very much. We pulled out of the parking lot and all I could think was, "this was either a really lucky day or we're about to end up like the girls in the movie TAKEN" Oh well, we took the chance. I forgot to mention, Stefanie spent 2 hours downloading Christmas music for our decoration time & I filled our bathroom with cinnamon scented pine cones.
Now our tree was a little tall when we got it home, so I just cut off the top with the sharp side of a hammer...I am very handy sometimes. Even though it looked a little messy, you can't even see it.
We threaded those sparkly white Christmas lights all around, found a skirt for the bottom & plugged it in... Our house smells and looks like Christmas and I couldn't be any happier.

1, 2, 3, 4 get your woman on the floor
Ladies & Gentlemen, Jordan Goodrich
Jordan is our roommate while he is in Provo F.Y.I., his room is the loft
I invited him to come with us to the W, best decision i've ever made. Not only is he good to be seen with, he is by far the best ipod D.J. ever to sit in my backseat.
First song, these boots are made for walking, Shania Twain..then to Taking Back Sunday, Spice Girls, Mariah Carey Heartbreaker....I don't think I need to name any of the other songs, he brought back the old times.... and you should know, they were all great.
We pull up and we're almost sad to leave the car. To the dance floor we go... Jordan moves like we've never seen.
The night was filled with dancing, great music and Jordan making us laugh all night.. we love when you come here.
Love you J.G.
We miss you and T.R.L. already
p.s. I stole this picture from your facebook.

Why me?
Okay, so I have a serious love hate relationship with my Audi. I love love love it when its working and hate it more then anything when its not. I swear this one is cursed. From Window regulators, to hit and runs, to chipped paint, to shattered glass, and all other sorts stuff happening underneath the hood. All very funny stories but this on seems to be the topper of the moment.
So once upon a time the clock struck 6:00 and I was finally off work. I just needed some Inn N' out in my body, I got there waited patiently for them to take my order. After that was done and said Mr. Inn n out was like "oh you have a flat tire" and this is where the fun begins. So I get out to see that my tire is seriously flat... Like the tire falling off the rim flat. So I called Joben but she was busy with work. Who was I going to call to fix this tire? Seriously racked my brain for a bit and called Dave Challis. He was so sweet and said he would be right over. As I was waiting for Dave Mr Inn N out came over to ask me if I wanted him to bring over my food. I almost laughed, I was thinking NO I dont want you to bring my food over here, I want you to fix this damn tire! I kindly said no thanks and he was on his way. Dave got there and well it turns out that those lug nuts were NOT moving. Nope. Not happening. So Dave took me home. On to the next set of boys that were ready to give it a try. Alec and Taylor take my keys and go to get the deed done. Nope. Not happening. The lug nuts were there to stay. So, I wake up the next morning and decided I would call Mike Affleck. Ha ha for those of you who don't know him, he is a big guy. Not only is he big he works out pretty much every second for football. The only problem with Mike is he doesn't know ONE thing about changing tires, but I'm thinking we need the muscles and me and J and figure out the brains. So we get out the owners manual and start reading. Nothings working, not even Mikes big muscles. Mike looks at me and says "Man, I cant believe that no one has pulled over to help us!" haha So I respond "Mike, no one going to stop when they see you here with us.. I'm pretty sure they are thinking you have it under control." J looks at both of us and decides that we need to get Fix a flat in a can, so we do. Hahaha we start putting that shit in and it just comes seeping out of the tire. Guess that's not going to work. Finally we decide that we need to move on to our last resort. Discount tire is across the street. So me and J thank Mike and head over to see which hottie mechanic is going to help us. We get the old grumpy guy who is in charge, he proceeds to tell me he is under staffed and i'll have to wait until his guy gets back from lunch. Then a younger guy interrupts and says "I'll do it. I'll do it." So old man grupers decides that's okay and barks at him to bring some tools and such. As we're walking out he says "Uh well, I got my truck over here... It's a little messy cause I uh just got done a hiking timp." Me and J tried to keep straight faces as we told him that we could drive our car and he could follow us. Once we got there he had to run back for different tools when he realized it was an Audi. As he was leaving me and J spotted his license plate which read Prtywmn! Oh we got us a keeper. Pretty Women on his truck. So he came back pretty quick and decided to make small talk, asking us if we go to school. We said no, and he said he was in the same boat? He asked me to get in the car and step on the breaks. Getting his hammer and tools all together he starts going to town on my tire. While he is down there Jess was standing behind him pretending to spank his butt and air hump him while he talked to me. I was laughing my ass off while I asked him what would I do if I was on the side of the highway. He gave me a simple answer.... Just carry a hammer around. NBD. He got three off before breaking his tool. He had to go back AGAIN to get this damn tire off my car. He comes and gets my tire off with great effort. Then starts talking about tork blah blah blah air blah blah blah come over to the shop and I'll finish you up. So I say good bye to J and follow Mr. discount tire. He was quick and finished my car, then winked at me and sent me on my way. In the end he refused my money. Thank you Mr. Discount Tire Guy.

TOP TEN REASONS WHY NO ONE ELSE IN THIS TOWN MATTERS BY: ALEC SOELBERG
- No one gives as good of nicknames. period.
- Everyone else sucks at dancing & scandal in comparison
- Who else do you know that can get away with literally anything?
- Between the two of them they have more shoes than the country Etheopia and probably Honduras
- Jess's mixtapes rock my world
- J Crew reenactment was spot on
- Our rockband can kick your rockband's ass
- Their blog is AMAZING!
- They can successfully convince you to do whatever they want and somehow make it look like it was your idea
- They appreciate real top notch things in music & fashion and I don't know two best friends better suited for each other. Suck on that.

You look better when you have a job.
If you smoke, drink, live off your parents, have dirty hair and no money to buy soap, if you are car less and job less and a complete asshole who uses trickery to make me think you are nice, & range from 20 to 23..CALL ME.
This is my type, can't help but to love a rebellious free bird... I'm not mad about it.
Referring to the previous blog posted by Stefanie, GStar is acceptable in every way..anytime, anywhere on most people.. In some real life situations this has been proven to be very true. So in conclusion, if you wear GStar I will love you as well... Argyle socks on the other hand, very cute but in my life if you have a hole in your sock and I can see your toe, then we are twins and you'll have to accept me too...because that is one thing I hate to buy.
Sincerely

G Star Lover
What is it about G Star... and why am I always looking for a G Star lover? I will admit, its a tiny bit ridiculous how many points a Joe Shmo will get for JUST putting this brand on his body. Maybe... its just that I tend to love tall tall skinny dark hair guys who naturally look amazing in this brand. So to all you boys out there (tall and skinny of course) without a clue, here is a small tip. Put some dark waxy jeans on some argyle socks (another strange and ridiculous obsession) and a plain V neck tee AND probably a hoodie with a leather jacket all layered up AND probably some sexy slighty dirty hair pushed back all carelessley and come be my boyfreind. muchograciasthankyouverymuch.
love,

Wheat thins for dinner, Oatmeal for lunch
Stefanie made up a song about how all I eat are grains..
I am beginning to think it's true. Today I had a PB & J to prove her wrong..but the whole time I wanted oatmeal. Right now i'm eating wheat thins, i've been eating the same things everyday for far too long..this could stem from how I hate change. I mean changing what you eat is a very minor thing, but hey it's scary. Scary like ripping off a band aid? Probably not as scary...
I will forever be eating oatmeal, wheat thins and granola all I have to put up with is the oatmeal song Stefanie made up. I'm fine with it I can deal with it. I know it won't be the end of her songs anyway.
I hate to have to think about what to eat, I want it to be easy and quick and I don't want to have to make it sometimes. I tried to make up a song about her but the only thing she eats is chocolate, it really ended up being a boring song. I guess I could write about snickers, kit kats, reeses peanut butter cups & some form of chocolate cookie. For now it's just me, my oatmeal song and my box of wheat thins.

Alec Soelberg
Apparently he is our celebrity guest blogger...whatever that means, i'm just going with the flow.
Winter you are growing on me
I always say how much I hate winter, I have decided to give it a chance this year. I guess it's not so bad and here is why....yea they're bullet pointed, had to get the point across in an organized way
- I have an excuse to want to be in my bed all day, yes I didn't have one before
- getting take out and eating it while watching some kind of horror movie we get from Redbox, I love Redbox and it's put to good use when the weather is shitty
- Boots, Tights, Sweaters, Scarves & Hats...everyone knows I love hats
- tea time ALL the time
- A good book, a fireplace and some coffee, coffee...everyone knows I love coffee
- Thanksgiving, Christmas & New Years...all so close together but gives us something to look forward to for 3 months
- how beautiful is the snow really? It might be cold but you don't have to stand outside to see it
- turning on the Christmas tree lights and leaving the rest of the lights off, it makes me get excited for Christmas like I used to
- SANTA even though he isn't real, I will still pretend to make him cookies so I can eat them
- going to Sundance on Sundays for Hot Chocolate
- even though I have to force someone to make a snowman with me every year, i always make it happen
- Kenny G Christmas CD..been listening to it every year for far too long
- playing Board Games becomes one of the options when trying to find something to do..makes me laugh every time it's brought up
- I get really pasty, oh wait these are the reasons I like winter...um, I decrease my chances for skin cancer just for a few months
- I have time to refill my Ipod...Project Playlist was my hobby for 2 months ..1500 songs downloaded but i'm bored already of them
- the people at Starbucks start to remember my name
- last but not least Sweat pants are acceptable, that in its self should be why I love winter.

Words Of Wisdom
You are not able to change the past, the present and the future are the only things in your power. What you choose to do with them is your option, understanding the present leaves no room for regret of the past. Knowing what you can control and taking action is a map to your life.. give your life no reason not to work in your favor. Don't feel sorry for yourself, stand up and take action if you want something to change. Be real, don't pretend to like something just because you think if you say you don't someone will judge you. Be yourself, being unique and different is what makes life interesting. We are all different and that is what makes each one of us so great. Surround yourself with people who make you happy, the ones who bring you down are doing it because they can't control their own thought process. They can't stand up and take control of their actions and thoughts enough to make them happier. They have no control of their lives, they live in misery...you understand why people, say "misery loves company". Whoever they are they will bring you down, they hate that you are remotely happy. Your friends should support you, love you and make you happier, they should bring light into your life instead of darkness. They should comfort you and give you praise...being selfish in a friendship is not acceptable. Gain an understanding of yourself and the people around you. This is your life and you of all people are the only one to control it. If you let people affect you in harmful or verbal ways, it can change who you are and who you strive to be. Don't forget yourself. Listening takes more than your ears, it takes heart...if you expect people to listen to you, make sure you do the same. I don't regret anything I have ever done, not one thing. I have learned from any "mistake" I have ever made, I have gained a respect for myself in knowing that if I want something to change I can change it myself. I have control of my life, that is the best part about it.

Give Me That Harmonica Necklace
We came across Jordan's Harmonica necklace one night while he was here in our basement. We casually asked him where he got it from..he refused to tell us he said, "do you understand that if you girls start wearing a harmonica necklace that all of Provo will too" obviously we know that would never happen. So we continued trying to bribe him into telling us where that S.O.B. came from. He wouldn't budge... as we're begging him we were also on stefanie's laptop googling harmonica necklaces... and he thought we wouldn't get what we wanted. FOUND IT, and the back of the harmonica so sweetly said "little lady". Fitting? I think so..we tell him we will just find our own, yet he still insists it's a horrible idea to get one. I think he wanted to be the only cool cat with a harmonica necklace, of course we wanted to rain on his parade. Still refusing to tell us we had to take matters into our own hands and that is when it got dirty. Stefanie attacked Jordan and tried to steal that necklace right off his neck. Jordan was not taking this serious, he was trying to play the harmonica while Stefanie was yanking at it then he so casually said, "hey Jessica, can you take a picture of this? I really need a new Facebook photo." We failed at getting a harmonica, but at least Jordan got this amazing photo out of it, it's a winner for sure.
Benefit Of The Doubt.
GOOGLED BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT AND GOT THIS PICTURE...DUH OF COURSE I HAD TO PUT IT UP, IT MAKES NO SENSE AT ALL
Once upon a time, I gave someone the benefit of the doubt. What is the benefit of the doubt you ask... you see, it is when you give them the benefit of the doubt. First, they dont call you when they say they are going to call so you think okay, you smashed your finger in the car door...you can't text or call.. or maybe he got a bloody nose and had to go to the e.r. or maybe in a freak accident had his mouth sewn shut and couldnt call to speak to you..or maybe he dropped his phone in a glass of water, or maybe he got in a fight and was punched in the voice box and was no longer able to speak, or maybe he passed out at a bar and the fat coug who was hitting on him stole his phone or ate it, or maybe his battery that was duct taped to his phone fell out...or maybe he got hit by a geo metro, or maybe hes a dumbass that didn't want to call you back which is the most likely of all of these scenarios...I'm pretty sure it will be the last one, so in conclusion don't give people the benefit of the doubt. They are usually full of shit.
The End.

I'm not clever enough to come up with a nickname for you...
Stefanie Marie Hillman.
You repeat everything I say, without knowing it.
You are O.C.D. and a germaphobe but you know that.
You dance like you are on america's best dance crew.
You eat a lot of Snickers candy bars, more then anyone I know.
You gave me WAY too many nicknames and I wish I knew how to stop it.
You have an anchor tattoo, probably because you like sailing even though you've never been on a sailboat.
You have way too many shoes and you always think you need more.
You've eaten like 475 Wendy's kids meals since i've known you.
You do not allow jeans in your bed.
You attract gay men, and I wish they loved me as much as you.
You also attract lesbians and we found that out at The Depot.
You went to hair school once and i'm glad that's over.
You hate it when I make you run in the snow, I have no idea why.
You will go to the flagpole with me.
You will sing Miley Cyrus with me as many times as I want and not get sick of it.
You always call me JOBEN and I HATE IT.
You always call me BOO RADLEY and I HATE IT.
You always call me GYMMIE and I HATE IT.
You always call me MEADOW and I HATE IT.
But I'll put up with it because you are a good friend, thanks Stef. Thanks so much...
All of these things are why you are my BFF.

Jessica Joben Meadow Boo Radley Gymmie Hughesman
I want to dedicate this blog to my very dear BFF Jess.
It all started with a cruise... One terribly wonderful cruise. Jess and I had been working like crazy and decided hey we're work friends lets be real friends and go on a cruise. Well we certainly went crusin'. Quick stop in San Diego, got lost, asked for directions, finally found our hotel, hit a parked van, fell asleep. Next morning got ready, went to Nordy's, Bought some shoes, Urban.. bought some secrets, off to the boat we go. Haha when we got on it was a little... Well, what can I say or how can I put it nicely... Vintage? We did some dancin' and met some friends. Although, everyone thought we were 18... We mostly slept due to excessive amounts of Dramamine and ice cream. (as shown in the pictures above) Went to lovers beach and found that we can have many many Mexican boyfriends which apparently is a popular question in Mexico. In fact Jess did find a Mexican Boyfriend who sort of felt her up in a picture, which was hilarious and a little scary. Where is that picture I wonder? All in all it was a fun trip. As Spanish singer rock star of the boat would say... Muchograciasthankyouverymuch Jess for being my very best BFF.

Alec Soelberg gets it.
Dear Alec Soelberg,
Why do we see you every time we are at Starbucks?
Why do you always wear G-Star and look so handsome?
Why do you understand our love for clothes and willingly talk about them with us?
Why did you match with Stefanie today?
Why do you have the hair of a goddess and the heart of a lion?
Why Alec?
Because you are amazing, thank you for being you...
We love you.

i'm a vegetarian, but I want a fur coat.
Stefanie is obviously an animal killer, mine however is Faux. No I will not wear fur, yes I will wear leather....does that make sense? Not really so anyway, I have been wanting a furry coat and I was so excited when I found this one. It's Kristen Blake and it's amazing, Stefanie's jacket is John Carlisle from Savvy. So who knows what this blog is about, maybe it's about our favorite jackets or maybe it's about how I won't wear real fur. Either way, we are staying warm this winter even if the only time we wear our jackets is in the basement. Keep it real with Faux.
J. Crew Recreated
So recently J Crew came out with one of the best catalogs either of us have ever seen, not only are the outfits incredible the feeling we get while looking at it can be best described as "inspired".
We decided to take a trip to their store in S.L.C, we were both excited to get to see our favorite items in person. We walk in and both of us stop, it looked as if we "stepped into the gap" I do not want to "step into the Gap" ok! Searching and searching for the most amazing charcoal sequin skirt; we left without seeing that or anything we loved.... I was disappointed. They can tease us with the best catalog in the world and take it all away from us when we try to get immediate gratification. So in conclusion, we decided the best way to go about it would be to take items from our own wardrobes and use J Crew's November Catalog as a guide... good thing we didn't buy anything because we did this without having to empty our pockets or leave "the cave" which in my mind are 2 things I adore.
If you haven't seen this catalog, I suggest you do. You will DIE.
If you don't appreciate this catalog, you can DIE.
Thanks.

Why Men Marry Bitches
"Why Men Marry Bitches" a book by Sherry Argov
"There are 2 types of woman; those who want power in the world, and those who want power in bed." and there is a third type, the bitch...she gets both.
This book isn't about how to trap your man by being a bitch don't let the title fool you, it's simply suggesting that the "bitch" is a strong powerful woman who knows: what she wants, who she is and what she will and will NOT put up with. In the introduction of this book she makes that clear.. I read a little further today and it was interesting some of the things that seem to hold true in every relationship.
- Men hear what they see
- Men love knowing there is a small part of you they can't get into
- In romance there is nothing more attractive then a woman who has pride and dignity in who she is
Regardless of you or him not wanting to play a game, it will happen or you will both be bored out of your minds. You can't give it all up front or he will think you are desperate (unless of course you are, then well there is no hope) and he can't either or you will think he is obsessed with you. There is a certain point where being all over each other will be okay, it's just a matter of getting to know the person with you while holding true to who you are. Don't be agreeable, that's boring..there is no way you both love the shins, painting sunsets and jogging in place... Don't be ridiculous. If you have something to say, say it. If he isn't all about it or rejects you for it, well that was you and clearly that is something he doesn't want. So move on.. at least you won't have to let go of your love of shitty horror movies because he told you he'd never watch them with you. So I guess being a bitch isn't such a bad thing..

"Welcome To The Game"
Who Is @801GG?
We were recently welcomed to the game, Stefanie today and myself (Lady Diane) yesterday. It's insane how the littlest prank can spread like wildfire in less then a day. Provo, you really need a hobby.. even though I was sucked into this without my consent I enjoyed being able to die of laughter sitting in the cave with Liz and Stef trying to figure out who "The Rockstar, The Jester and The Prince" are.. My drive of shame somehow became a mass tweet slash text and i'm not even mad about it. I can't wait to see what's in store for 801GG & I hope this lasts a while. It's good to have some entertainment in our lives.

How Did Red Lipstick Get On This Cracker?
Ever want to meet us at the "flagpole"? If you do, you might have just made a deal with the devil. If you don't like red lipstick then you can't hang.. Red Lipstick, Iphoto, and the flagpole equaled one of the best nights in a very long time. Doesn't red lipstick make you feel sexy well at least I thought so. "hey Stef, lets wear red lipstick and take pictures" Now at the time it sounded brilliant to me and in the present I sound like an idiot... and even though Stef likes to bring up that it was "my" idea. She loved it. We ended up at our good friend Brett Beatty's where we decided to eat all his ritzs crackers, and that my friends is where this infamous quote came from -"how did red lipstick get on this cracker?" and where I spilled an entire beverage on my phone, ran in the middle of the street while Stef fell down the stairs and screamed for her best friend to come back as I left with someone who could have easily gotten a D.U.I. Perfection.
