over in a lot of ways.

The weekend is over...

I'm still hungover.

I've never been so exhausted.

Seriously. No joke.

my body hurts and my eyes are struggling to keep open.

I look like my dogs morning crap.

... yes I made it to work - no I am not gonna get a damn thing done today.

"Why does my body hurt so bad?" was the question of the day yesterday & yet still today. It never dawned on me until I was driving back from brunch...

 "Holy Poop, I just figured it out" were my exact words.

  I thought it would be okay to hold a 40 pound precious

little girl on my shoulders so she could see the parade better...

#Dammit.

I should have listened to Rachel {her mom} when she tried very hard to explain that

carrying a child on your shoulders is a mans job.  I'm over being "The Cool Mrs. Jess..." She never warned me that it would add age to me the next day - And Lacey is tiny. Really tiny. So tiny I'm embarrassed to explain how much my body is aching. I can't imagine a heavy child.



Besides the four hours of sleep Friday night, the seven hours Saturday night

& the six hours of sleep last night - I never slowed down not one bit.

I partied like a rock star.

We partied like we were in the movie OLD SCHOOL.

#truestory: "I like your green hat" was my quote of the weekend.

I even pretended to be Frank half the weekend. I may or may not have even done

the Frank the Tank impresonation... not once but twice -  

  

However, I had an amazing weekend.

One hell of a weekend.

So much fun. So many laughs. A lot of good memories with wonderful people.

I'm over being green. I'm over drinking beer. I'm over partying.

I'm over not having my beauty sleep.

A full St. Patty's Day/weekend  post will be up sometime this week.

For now, I'm over & out.

Five Question Friday

It's that time...

It's Finally Friday!!!!!

If you want to play, copy the questions, post them,

& then link up with Mama M.

1. What is your favorite thing about summertime?
Oh do I love the Fall. Georgia Heat KILLS ME! This past week our heat index was 115. OUCH! It feels like an oven! But... what I DO look forward to, is the Water. I LOVE sitting on a sandbar eating watermelon, drinking a cold one, with good people to enjoy the time.  I love boat riding!!! It's so much fun!!!

Me, Aaron & Jackson [Our Dog..Long Story] Summer 09'

Playing on the Beach - Football, Frisbee, or HorseShoes

Or being on the Water in General...

I Looooooove CRUISE'S!!!

Love em' Love em' Love em'!!!!

& last, but definitely NOT least...

I love wearing Summer Dresses...

I have more dresses in my closet than anything else...

I'm a dress kinda girl!

 

2. What is your ideal retirement location (if money didn't matter)?To be honest, I don't think I'd wanna move anywhere. I DO know.. I want to travel as many times & see MANY places possible all around the world... and then just come back home... To Ellabell!


3. Do you live in the same town you grew up in?
Sort of - I've grown up in the same county. Richmond Hill & Ellabell/Pembroke are Bryan County... As a little girl, I knew life in the city [Richmond Hill]... Later... We moved to Ellabell. Ellabell is where I call Home [The Counrty Side].
Which is where I graduated from High School, & Yes... we plan to live here... probably forever!
So, not really.. but Sort of!



4. What nervous habit did you have as a child that you kicked to the curb before becoming an adult?
I wasn't ever nervous... I was A.D.D & A.D.H.D - & haven't been able to kick it to the curb! I was the kid that made everyone want to pull their hair out.


5. What is the most embarrassing thing that happened to you while on the job?Ohhhh Geez, which time? I'm always making a goober out of myself. The one that stands out the most is... many, many years ago I worked at Cracker Barrel, through College, as a server.. one of the nights I had to work we were slammed. My body couldn't pase fast enough, my head couldn't think straight, and my words were scrammbled!... Let me repeat myself, my words were scrammbled!
SO, on with my story. As I've said, we were slammed. I'm pretty sure I had 5-6 different tables at one time, that was normal at Cracker Barrel. I was really happy to see this old couple sit at my table.. Thinking to myself  "Ohhhh, only two people... and they are old... maybe they will take their time so I can catch up..." As I walk to their table I'm greeting them 90 to nothing... I talk fast on a regular base, so you can only imagine.. or can you??? I don't remember exactly, why I was tellling them about pork chops, I don't think there was a "specific" night were pork chops were served, maybe it was just a special... ANYWAY!!!!
I  can ramble, can't I? So I'm tlaking to this couple & going 90  to nothing.. something like this : - Hi, My name is Jessica, I'll be your server tonight. Can I start you off with a sweet tea, coffee, or a coke? [that was my intro...always]
[and if servers want to hurry the process, we would try and take the order on the first stop] Okay great! Tonight our special is, Fart Pork Chops...........

THat's right, I blurted out FART Pork Chops.. as the lovely couple was looking gracefully at their menus... they just looked up at me, over their bifocials... something like this.....

only they were sitting at Cracker Barrel.

Nope.. that's not it!!! Everything was going so fast.. I didn't know what to do. Do I just apologize? or Just skip over it? ....
I skipped over it.. STUPID! I could feel my face screaming, I'm humilated!!!!!
So, nothing was said.. I only received really confused looks.
They said they would take a minute, of COURSE! So I get their drinks, come back... start to take their order and the gentleman says...
"I'll have the FART PORK CHOPS."
You can only imagined the look... &&& I busted out laughing, & so did the couple!
It was awful.. I was beat red & I don't think I will EVER forget that couple!


EVERYONE HAVE A HAPPY WEEKEND!

Who's your Celebrity Look-a-Like?

So, it seems to me we all look like someone out there in the world. I get this a lot. Some random person is always asking me if I this person, or that person. I don't have a clue. It must be true that I have a lot of twins out there. Where? I'd love to meet a look alike, would you?

- Let's travel wayy back in time to my freshman year of High School I played tennis for the school My coach would always call me Cameron. Cameron Diaz that is. She swore I looked just like her. At the time... COach Moss was the only person who saw it. As the years passed... I was told that more often. It's a compliment. I've always LOVED Cameron Diaz. I think it's fantastic. Her Movies are wonderful. Although, I've never seen myself look like her. I'm short... she's tall. I'm meaty.. she's boney. I have thick hair. Her's is thin. Okay, so MAYBE we have the same personality, but what does that mean? Just last week at work I had a guy say to me? .... "Has anyone ever told you you look like... ... .... dang, what's that actress' name?" I smiled, & said... I've been told a lot that I look like Cameron...." He interupts! "That's it.. Cameron Diaz... Gosh, you look just like her." I blushed.What do you think?

Whatcha THink?

-Today, on this 110 degree HOTT summer day in Georgia... I'm sitting at work, swampped!!! I have an office full of people waiting to be next in line & this gentleman looks over at me. Gives me a weird look... I smile back, then these words come out of his mouth. "Has anyone ever told you.... you look like....[Immeditately I'm thinking, Cameron Diaz...then he says...] Brooke Hogan?" My entire office starts saying.. "Oh my, you look just like Brooke Hogan?" Ugh! Can we go back to Cameron? I always thought Brooke was kinda..."dirty" so I wasn't too happy about it. My friend on facebook seem as if I should have taken it as a compliment. Yikes! I googled BROOKE HOGAN... Yes click HERE to see what I got. Aaron thought it was great! Yuck! Here are the better pictures of Brooke. I didn't want to dirty my page up with the other photos.

Give me your opinion... Do I look like Brooke Hogan?

What about YOU! Has anyone ever said YOU looked like a certain person?

Better yet, Have you been told you looked like a Celebrity? If so, share with me. It's interesting to see everyones opinions.

Post a picture of your Celebrity look-a-like on your blog as well.

Have a great day!
