1:: Nashville! Umm, you may have been bombarded on my social media accounts this week by me proclaiming my love for this show! What can I say? I'm a little bit country! This has filled the little Friday Night Lights shaped hole in my heart. I have a serious girl crush on Connie Britton. If you don't know who she is, we are no longer buddies! Now, I'm not a huge fan of Hayden Panettiere, but even I love to hate her in this show. Did I mention how awesome the soundtrack is? Get that schnizz on your iTunes, stat.
3:: Birchbox! I've just subscribed and I am ridiculously excited about receiving the May box. If it doesn't land through my door today, my head will truly explode!
4:: The infamous Tangle Teezer. Now, I've been coveting one of these for months now after reading, what feels like, hundreds of reviews. To be honest, I was dubious that it was going to tease my seriously tangled wet hair...but I was not disappointed! Even O uses it, because he "likes the scratchy feeling"! So it's definitely a new staple in the O & L household.
5:: Crazy thunderstorms! We've had a few of them this week and there's nothing nicer than sitting inside watching the downpour outside our patio doors and listening to the thunder blasting away.
6:: Late night dinners with O at the actual dining table. We get so lazy these days and end up sat on the sofa, with our plates on our laps, watching TV. I love the nights that we clear the mess (usually mine) of the table, switch the TV off and listen to the radio whilst munching away. Usually I like them better with some red wine on the side...
7:: Getting comments on my blog! You have no idea how happy this makes me! It's nice to know that some people enjoy reading my nonsense!
8:: Inspiring others to start blogging. Two of my Essex buddies have just starting their own blogs after reading mine. I love this. Go have a mooch around and see what you think. Danni's is here and you can find Amy's here.
9:: O having three-day-long weekends! It makes the weekends that he working seem much more worthwhile. So, today is his Friday. Which means a tasty dinner this eve...and mayhap some wine! I think we're also roadtripping to Manchester tomorrow to visit O's family (love Manchester, FYI).
10:: West Wing! Oh lordy! We finally finished all seven seasons this week. West Wing: it's been emotional! I think it's taken us roughly over a year to get all the way through, with a few rest stops in-between. I think this may be the best TV show I've ever watched. Bold statement, I know. I am usually pretty fickle with these things, but seriously. Josiah Bartlet will always be my president (Santos, you are pretty awesome too, but you're no Bartlet). We're now left with a big empty space in our DVD player. What should we tackle next?
Wow. I did ramble on a bit in this post, didn't I? Ah well, what has made you happy this week?
