why do i act surprised when monday rolls around?

via

Well its Monday again, I don't know why I say that like I'm surprised?  I've been extremely busy since about 6:30am which means at about 9am I was ready for 5:30pm.  

I found some cake in my fridge this morning and seriously considered having it for breakfast but nevertheless I was in a hurry so I finally ate breakfast today around noon which technically makes it lunch but I really want pizza so I'm going to call it breakfast and eat again in an hour.

This is a great example of everyone that ever walks into Target.  I mean hello who can walk away from the $1 section without picking up at least one thing?  I'm sure there is a way to use the inanimate object I just bought in a brilliant way I just have to find it on Pinterest first.

I successfully took advantage of my Netflix account this weekend which is surprising due to the fact that most months I pay about $18 and never return a single DVD or watch anything online.  My friends however all have my e-mail and password and watch to their content.  Hmm...

I'm turning 25 this January.  I really want to go to Vegas.  Something to know about me, I love Vegas.  The lights, the action, the hangovers.  That being said I'm more than likely not going to make it to Vegas for my birthday.  Sad face.  Being 25=no money.  Sometimes reading about it however eases the pain a little.

Just discovered this website (seen any recent links on my blog from this place recently?).  Read it, it will make you cooler.

Its almost the end of October which means its time to start getting ready for Christmas!  Eeeeee!  I came home last night to find my roommate glittering up a nice selection of picture frames, candle holders, and other select items.  We celebrate the holidays in my house like the radio stations do, November 1st to January 1st.

the bedroom.

I try and make my bed every morning, sometimes it gets done, sometimes it doesn't, but nothing feels better to come home from work and have a clean bedroom at the end of the day.  In my opinion even if your bedroom has all your things laying around if the bed is made it automatically looks clean.  

I have had a lot of different arrangements with all the pillows on my bed in the past and have never really found a combination that I love.  I played around a little and think I found something I like...

Option #1

I have 2 King pillows and 2 Queen pillows that I sleep with each night.  The two Euro pillows and shams are purely decorative.  I like this combo, its simple, easy but the contrast of the black and white with the all white I was not loving.  On to the next

Option #2

Basically the same as option #1 but with my Target pillows added on.  This is how I have been putting my bed together for the past few months and I am not in love.

Option #3

 Can you say frumpy...Next...

Option #4

This one was okay I still don't like how the Queen pillows look so messy.  I did a little rearranging again and came up with this...

Option #5

 

I really like this one.  It's simple, crisp, and easy to throw together in the morning.  I stacked my daily use pillows right at the headboard, propped my two euros against them, then finished it off with my one pillow from Target.

What do you think?  Do you have a favorite?  Or maybe another combination you can think of?
