Thanks for all your comments on which birth control method is best yesterday! I’m going to put together a post summarizing what people said in the near future.
In the meantime, I spend a lot of time surfing the internet (probably too much), and I bookmark things I find interesting on Delicious, Pinterest, Google Reader, and YouTube. So I thought I’d share with you some of the best stuff I’ve found lately!
First, there’s not really a point to this. I just think it’s funny. Rhett and Link’s whole channel on YouTube is funny, but for some reason this works for me:
If you look them up, check out their video on The Future of Pants, too.
Love this quick scene from the movie Date Night, too. I think some of you moms might need this today:
Now, for some interesting posts.
Apparently makeup makes women appear more confident. Interesting. I may do a post on makeup later. What do you all think about wearing it?
Great article on how to dress so you look like you have an hourglass figure. Lots of pics!
The Generous Wife posts frequent roundups of great posts she found on marriage this week. Here’s one with lots of great stuff from a while back, to find more marriage blogs!
After my post on Interviewing Your Daughter’s Date, a number of people sent me a link to this “Application to Date My Daughter“. I thought it was clever.
My good friend Amy Bayliss has just finished 31 Days of Printables, and I thought you may appreciate some of them!
Now, two reminders: if you haven’t voted for me yet in the Circle of Moms Top 25 Mom Blog contest, can you vote for To Love, Honor and Vacuum now? Remember, you can vote everyday!
And if you haven’t joined my Facebook Page, why not join now? I post lots of great links that I see up there, along with my thoughts, questions, and other funny things. I only need 10 more people to get to 1000! And the thousandth fan will win a copy of To Love, Honor and Vacuum! (from a suggestion in the comments)
UPDATE: Okay, now it looks like no one is joining the Facebook Page because they want to wait until it gets to 999! So here’s the deal: I’ll randomly choose SOMEONE who joined today, no matter what your number is, to win a copy of To Love, Honor and Vacuum! Sound better? 🙂
Have a great day!
Fun! Now I have more things to check out today, lol 🙂 Maybe you should do a book giveaway when you reach 1000 “likes” on Facebook!
Good idea, Stacey! Okay, my thousandth person will win a copy of to Love, Honor and Vacuum!
LOL… I was thinking more along the lines of a draw… but a gift to the 100th person would be quite a treat 🙂
I’ve just discovered you… so… where have you been all my life?! Loving the blog, and looking forward to some ‘me’ time to check out these links.
Love, Anne, in Scotland, but who has visited your wonderful country three times…. Ahhhhh, memories 🙂
Welcome, Anne! I’ve only been to your lovely country once, but what made me laugh so much was the golf courses. And we think WE play golf here! All your golf courses have outrageous hills everywhere, because all of Scotland has outrageous hills. I took tons of pictures for my golfing father-in-law!
OH MY! I was the 1000th like on FB. Neat! Oh well…
I saw that, Joanna! How cool!
Oh, and the Rhett and Link video was hysterical. They crack me up. I like the Cornhole song.
I haven’t seen the Cornhole song. I’m going to go find it now!
And??? Wasn’t it funny? My second favorite is S.E.T.I. It’s a crack up. And I’ll stop promoting Rhett and Link on you blog now. 😉
That movie clip, did you notice how it was the guy sharing his emotions and thoughts while the woman said nothing in response? Sure she went and sat beside the guy but she never replied back, “I feel the same way too.” I guess I am overly sensitive to Hollywood’s portrayal of marriages these days.
I have not seen the movie, but the clips I have seen of it… where the wife is obviously attracted to another man who is not fully dressed, in front of her own husband makes me doubt any good that could come from it.
I know what you’re saying, but in the context of the movie it was really quite sweet. The movie is about two people who are living together and getting by, but little else. She is attracted to another man (but would never have an affair with him; it’s not like that). He, similarly, is bored with her. And in the movie they both find that they had so much at home that they never realized before, and the movie ends with both committing to make their lives more fun, and to stay madly, passionately in love with each other.
It’s not a perfect movie by any stretch of the imagination, and I wouldn’t show it to my kids. The stuff in the latter half of the movie is just too sketchy. But I thought it was one of the best movies I’ve seen lately that depicted the reality of relationship; how two people can totally love each other but slowly drift apart because of the demands of real life, and how you have to make a point to rediscover each other again.
And, throughout the movie, both really are totally committed to each other, unlike other characters. I just thought it was an honest movie, even if it wasnt a great movie. And it was very marriage affirming: don’t go looking for excitement elsewhere, because you always have enough at home!
