Life in the Fast Layne

Today is just one of those dreary mondays. The combination of it being 30 degrees, the day after the Oscars and 5 days from Spring break people here are really dragging. And I'm definitely one of them.  There are a few things that are making it a bit more bearable: 1. It's sunny today! Yes, there's snow covering the ground and there's another 6 inches coming tonight, for now it's pretty nice outside.  2. I'm going to New York to see my friend KC this upcoming weekend. I've never actually spent the night in New York so I'm excited to get to spend a significant amount of time there! 2 Bawlmore gals conquering the Big Apple! 3. The Oscars last night were fabulous. Argo. Meryl Streep's dress. Adelle. Anne Hathaway. It was a great night, totally worth staying up late for. She looks absolutely divine.  Has Halle ever looked bad? This is quite a dress but she definitely pulls it off.  Stacey Keibler looks great but, George,

I don't know about the non- University of Michigan world but here in Ann Arbor I feel like everyone (myself included) has one of these: I mean to be honest, I got mine cause I wanted to feel like a professional athlete. And to be honest, If you think about it, it's a GENIUS campaign. The simple water bottles are cheap (a mere $4 compared to a $20 Camelback) and they work really well. But it's not the actual product that is great for Gatorade, it's the fact that people are PAYING to advertise for them! I mean if Joe Flacco has one and he's the Super Bowl MVP, I should have one too. I wish I could have an idea like that. Do you have a gatorade water bottle? Do you love yours as much as I love mine?

So here's the deal, I thought I wanted to stop blogging but I've really missed it in the last few weeks. I know that it's super annoying when bloggers don't post regularly so I'll try and be better. I'm not going to catch you up on the last almost 3 months, I'm just going to pick up where I left off!  Here we go! This week is unusual because there are TWO holidays! Mardi Gras and Valentine's Day. If you know anything about me, you know I love holidays!  Today I celebrated Mardi Gras by wearing my beads and enjoying a Pazcki (basically a donut).  I hope I can go to NOLA for Mardi Gras one year! Valentine's Day will be filled with sweets, chick flicks and friends (after I get home from clinical AND drill). Stay tuned for pictures! True love What are your holiday plans for this week?
