awkward and awesome thursday

Awkward

• The third eye giant zit in the middle of my forehead that won’t pop dang it.

• Not being able to keep eyes open during photo shoots because of that Arizona sun

• Crying two nights in a row while watching karaoke versions of songs like “Carwash.” And no, these were not laughter tears. Real tears, guys. Real tears.

• Asian lady fascinated by my fixing up a baked potato from the buffet. Excuse me, lady. I’d appreciate it if you’d move your head from between my food and my face. Personal space anyone??

• Having my mom help me clean up and put together our little newlywed home.

• Elevator door open. Ten people don’t move, but just stand there and stare at you. You stare back. Elevator door closes.

Awesome

• Hearing, “Honey, I’m home!” from the other room

• The endless gifts and presents

• Re-washing the same plastic spoon for an entire week because we have zero dishes

• The hubs using an ice cream scoop as a substitute spoon for an entire week because we have zero dishes

• Finding a hidden stash of paper plates, bowls, and utensils in our kitchen cupboard after  finally giving in and purchasing dishes

• Flee market at Ensenada. Hit. It. Up.

• Turning a war zone into a cozy little home in a day

• Reeses Puffs. Minus the sicknast coating at the end.
