It's Been a Big Month

So, remember how I swore I was back to blogging and then I wasn't?!  Hahaha, fun times.

Luckily, I have a fun little story (that played out on twitter also, so sorry for the repeats) that happened yesterday, and I just couldn't not share it.

On Tuesday, I was headed to the salon for a little refresh on my highlights when I decided I needed a change.  Mostly because I wear a ponytail every.single.day and everybody was sick of seeing it.

 So I texted my husband - can I pull this off??

Obviously, I wasn't going to just ask him because his replies were basically - "who is this person?"  "Yeah, cut your hair if you feel like it.  I'm sure it'll be fine."    So, I tweeted about it.  All "I'm nervous, should I chop my hair?"

So, I listened to twitter, and chop chop chop.  It wasn't too drastic of a cut, but there's a definite difference.  The next morning, I put on my most-nude lipstick (it's not very nude) and attempted my best Caroline Stanbury selfie. 

And despite my pledge to be mostly-selfie-less on Instagram... I totally posted it.  I'm occasionally allowed to indulge, yes?

Despite the weird-ass look on my face (because I of course posted the outtake instead of the happier-looking photo), I was happy cause everyone was all "great hair" and that's not a compliment I get too often, so I take what I can get. 

A couple of hours later, Whitney tagged Caroline in the photo...  and lo and behold, 20 minutes later, Caroline herself posted a compliment on the photo.

A compliment from one of my favorite Ladies of London?!  Geesh, this whole social media thing just keeps getting better and better!

July 2014 - probably going to be the height of my social media career, yes?

My 15 Minutes

Just wanted to take a quick minute to document one of the highlights (or lowlights?) of my involvement in social media.  (Do I sound like a loser?  Don't answer that.)

On Wednesday, June 25th, I was just hanging out and watching the Today Show, as often happens in the morning when my husband is sleeping.

Lo and behold, 25 minutes into the show, my face pops up on the screen.  I'm not sure I even reacted because I was so confused.

Yep, I got my tweet read on the Today Show because I tweeted about the family who attempted to scam KFC for money for a little girl's medical expenses.

To be clear, I have nothing but pity for the sweet little girl.... however, I have nothing but disrespect for her family.

I can only imagine how much trouble all the employees were in that were accused of discriminating against the sweet girl.  I'm fairly sure that all of the minimum-wage workers who work in that location were probably in fear of losing their jobs over something that never even happened.  Raaaage.

Yep, my 15 minutes of fame.  Me and KFC.

Classic.

Gotta Love Globes

Ok, I must say - I'm pretty much on a roll being the Most Boring Person on The Planet Earth, but how much fun were the Golden Globes last night?

I feel like I don't even know where to begin.

Actually, I do.

The best thing about the Golden Globes were Tina Fey and Amy Pohler.

 Not only did Tina look BEYOND gorgeous... I mean, WHOA.  But their jokes were HILARIOUS and left everyone wanting more, if I do say so myself.  

And the second best thing about the Golden Globes?  Helloooo, it's obviously the Twitter.

Hanging out on twitter last night was basically like being crammed in a dorm room with several (hundred) of your BFFs watching the awards and laughing your head off.  It just makes the experience of watching an award show SO much more fun!  

Only with more booze than I ever had in college.  Usually.

Do you enjoy watching the award shows "with" twitter?  Or does it annoy the crap out of you and you had to un-follow me to just get away from it all.  (Sorry bout that.)

Yay yay... it's twitter and award show season!  Let the fun begin... 

(And please, for the love, Jennifer Lawrence, please find a good dress for the next show.  Please!)

Seriously, Where Does the Time Go??

How is it already the week of Thanksgiving??

Every single year I tell myself that I'm going to be organized - I'll just do one thing after another and then everything will be smooth sailing.

Well we have zero Thanksgiving food in the house, I have purchased zero Christmas presents, and I still haven't even really made a list of what I'm planning on buying for the 15-or-so odd people on my family's Christmas list. Excellent.

Today I have the whole day absolutely free (I think), so I am planning on shopping till I drop.... which will probably be about 2 pm. I swear, I can't even do the shopaholic thing correctly!

So, while I am doing that, I was hoping all of you could help me out. You see, I am way behind in my blog following and twitter following and at this blog in general.

I just get confused - so many of you have blog and twitter names that are completely different so I'm not always sure that the two are related - does that make any sense?

So I am begging all of you to leave me your twitter, um, names(?) on this post along with your blog address if your profile doesn't link to it for some reason.

And then I can catch up on my following and such.

Sound like a plan. I'll start.

I am ClassyFabSarah on Twitter.

Your turn.

(Happy Monday!)
