Obsessions

Ok, so it's safe to say I have an obsession with quite a few things. The thought of writing this post came to me as I was trying to figure out a way to squeeze in my new nail polishes in my now full rack!!  A few of my main ones are: nail polish, glitter,  Bath & Body Works home products, Sex & the City, and Justin Timberlake.  These are in no particular order, and definitely only a few of the random things I am a wee bit obsessed with.

Let's start with nail polish.  Now I don't know how this got to where it is, but somehow I ended up owning 50+ polishes. And I will admit it, I am a nail polish snob.  If it's not OPI, Essie, and the occasional Sally Hansen, I am not buying it.  One reason, I can NOT stand chipped nail polish. When I see people with busted nails I literally cringe. (no offense girls, ha.) Therefore, I need a polish that will not chip and that will last me a full week.  Sunday is my nail day. I give myself a full manicure (I own just about every gadget the nail salons do) and watch Sex & the City. Gotta throw in a few obsessions at once! :) For some reason every time I go in a store, I HAVE to look at the nail polish. Hence, #2 in the definition. I feel like if I don't look, I might miss a deal or some awesome color I have never seen- yea, right.  Oh, and if it's ever on sale then it's a guarantee I will buy a new color. No doubt.  I tend to stick to the color scheme of pinks, red, and corals.  I do have a few "crazy" colors that I buy when I am feeling daring. And most importantly, I own quite a few GLITTER polishes. (Hello, two obsessions combined in one bottle- FABULOUS).




Glitter- I mean there's not really much to say here. Who wouldn't love glitter? Nail polish, body spray, lotion, etc.  Oh, and Bath & Body Works has the best body glitter products.  They are SUPER glittery and last all day.  So if you like to be a sparkly fool like me, look no further! Halloween is one of my favorite holidays, especially since you can add glitter to every costume! I have been a glitter cat, glitter bee, glitter A League of Their Own character! That glitter spray they sell at Halloween time is UH-MAZING!




Bath & Body Works- Whew, my crack store! haha Between the room sprays, wallflowers, candles, candle holders, car scents, antibacterial, and occasional body products, I could spend DAYS in here! I will never buy anything full price here because they ALWAYS have sales and coupons. Plus, the more often you go, the more coupons you get and the more items you buy, the bigger discount you get.  It's a hoarder's dream come true! (not that I am quite ready to label myself yet). At the end of every season they have the Semi-Annual sale, so of course I HAVE to stock up for next season. It's one big vicious cycle and I love every minute of it!


Sex & the City-  Now, I never watched this show while it was on, as I was probably too young to be watching it then anyways.  My best friend Lexie started my obsession.  She dragged me along to see the first movie even though I had never seen one episode.  I fell in LOVE with the movie and the characters.  I then borrowed her box set and watched the whole series within a week probably.  Of course she wanted it back, lame I know, so I had to get my own set! Luckily my sweet friend, Sarah, that I worked with at the time found a pretty good deal on Ebay and got it for me for my birthday. I can sit and watch this show over & over & over.. which I do! Of course a lot of their lifestyles are a wee bit unrealistic, but who doesn't love to get sucked into a show and all it's glamour. A little dreaming never hurt anyone!

Justin Timberlake- Um, enough said!  I have seen him 4 times in concert (2 in the NSYNC days, and 2 solo). I am giddily awaiting him to announce a tour for his next album. My only dilemma, Lance has already said 100% he will not go with me (loser!) so if he comes to Charlotte, I need someone to come and go with me!! Lance did say he would buy someone's concert ticket if they would fly here and go.. little does he know the tickets I want have been known to be well over $100.. oh well! :)  And I think it's so sweet that our wedding dates are only a week apart! (yes, I am a freak..)




Happy Saturday, folks! (oh, and no judgement! hehe)

xoxo
