Have you heard that green M&Ms are supposed to be an aphrodisiac? Seems a little nutso to me. I prefer our local shops over Starbucks too. 25-27 are me too! What did you think of the show "I Love the 80s"?

Okay jealous of 16 and 21. I only get two weeks at this new gig :( and It takes me closer to 20 minutes to dry my hair. I am down for a Cranium GTG! I do hit snooze close to 20 times a day. I set my alarm super early just so I can do this. Yes I'm wierd. And all you dancing comments made me totally LOL because I can 100% picture it. Go ghetto booty white girls!

I totally love Cranium...I own it, but we never have enough people to play. So, when are we having game night?

And...we HAVE to go dancing soon. I also am pretty good with the booty, and my faces are superb. We would definitely steal the spotlight on the dance floor. Woop woop!

Naturally wavy hair is a curse...I gave up blow drying mine because I ALWAYS oversleep. The snooze button is my best friend.
