I ride the wrong road

Just as fast as I can
God knows there's no one else to blame
Sometimes I think I
Get off on the pain.

Ahhh, the wonderful Gary Allan, the official Bad Boy of country music. To see why gary Allan is classified as the Bad Boy all you really have to do is look at him, he just has that bad boy look with his arms tattooed and his slightly scruffy look, and that unmistakeable bad boy smirk.

And his song "Get Off on the Pain" is where Gary thoroughly cements his status as the eternal bad boy, from the lyrics, "There's a side of me that just won't stop, dancing in the flame, maybe I just get off on the pain." to the intense video of a rodeo.  That sinister smirk Gary is wearing says he really does Get Off on the Pain, and that is sexy as hell.

In my opinion Gary Allan is one of the most underrated country singers out there, I would rather listen to him than Kenny Chesney, Keith Urban, or Brad Paisley (I can not STAND him.).  But he doesn't get much radio play even though he is 100 times better than them.

Some of my FAVORITE Gary Allan songs:
1. Get Off on the Pain
2. Man to Man
3. Nothing on but the Radio
4. Songs About Rain
5. Right Where I Need to Be
6. Learning How to Bend
7. Her man

And those are all tied for first place. lol.  I really do love him.  He is such a great artist and he writes his own songs....He is just great. =) I love Gary Allan. Below is the Song with Lyrics that you can listen to if you can't get to youtube.  But if you can you HAVE to watch the video, which is also below! =)



LOVE LOVE LOVE ♥ ♥ ♥  Watch this =)


Have a great Day Everyone!! =)

Little Sparrow Logos & More

So I was chosen to review Little Sparrow Logos & More and all I can say is that it is AMAZING.


The first thing I did was check out the Photo Gallery which has samples of business cards, watermarks for photos, birth announcements, invitations, custom logos and more! All of the designs are very nice and pretty, there are some done with a lot of color and some with not much color.  And you can customize them any way you want.


I found a sample of a business card that I absolutely LOVE and I wanted to see how it would like so I chose that.  It is a very nice design and I love the fonts and the colors.  You can also have one custom made instead of picking from the samples. 


The ordering was SO simple.  Normally when you order something (or at least when I order something) it takes me 20 minutes just to get through the ordering process! But this was very simple, there is an order form for each separate item you can order that also gives the prices.  The order form was very simple and you get to specify if you have found a design that you like or if you would like to design your own, you get to choose your fonts, your colors, and the information you would like on it!


After submitting the order form I received my proof, I got to make sure it was how I wanted it, and if all the information was correct (it was) and it is GORGEOUS! 




I LOVE IT! I chose to stick with the same fonts and colors because that is what I wanted, I love the pink and black and I think the fonts are very nice and create some contrast. 


And the customer service? It was GREAT! She was very sweet and amazingly fast.  


This was a VERY great experience for me! I will definitely be going back when I need more cards. =) 


If you're in the market for logos or business cards or anything you should check out Little Sparrow Logos & More!

Oh my goodness.

So last night we went and saw Rodney Carrington and Ron White! It was an absolute BLAST.  Rodney is HILARIOUS, seriously, you should check him out.  But I wouldn't do it if you are at work or around children, OR if you take offense at vulgar material, because some of his stuff is pretty bad.  

Rodney was the best. 

Ron White was Ehhh.  I really like Ron White, I think he is a funny guy, but it was like he did all the same jokes.  Seriously, I know that you've made a lot off of those jokes, I know you're funny, But come up with some new material will ya? He told maybe 2 new jokes, which was seriously disappointing
.

Oh and the opener, HE WAS HILARIOUS. I can't remember his name now, but I am going to hunt it down because he was a funny guy.

And now a WARNING:

iF YOU EVER TRAVEL TO CHICAGO DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT STAY AT THE CHICAGO O'HARE GARDEN HOTEL!!!!!!!!!!!!

That place was horrific.  We got there and checked in and went to our room.  The door didn't lock, the curtains were broken, the bed was horribly uncomfortable, there was no phone, and there was no remote.  So we went and complained and they moved us to a different room.

In our second room the air hardly worked, the curtains were broken, the springs were sticking out of the bed, and there was NO HOT WATER.  I had to take a shower and the only hot water there was was scalding hot water and the water pressure was so bad that i couldn't have used it if I could stand the heat. You couldn't get warm water either, just icy cold water, that was the fastest shower I have ever taken. OH and in order to get the door closed you had to kick it, not lightly either, and you had to kick it open.

We live about 4 hours from Chicago and after the show we went back to the hotel and grabbed our stuff and drove home.  We left the hotel at 11:30 PM and got home at around 3:30 AM. It was THAT bad.  And we had woken up at 7 to get ready to leave for Chicago, so we were both tired and we DROVE home just to avoid staying there.

It was gross, and it smelled funny, like mold and stale cigarette smoke.  And there were stains on the carpet, holes in the walls, cracks in the walls, and cobwebs on the ceiling. It was the WORST hotel I have ever stayed in.

So yeah, You've been warned!

Have a great night everyone!

Darling Save The Last Dance for Me....

Today is a Michael BublĂ© day for me =)  The man has got an AMAZING voice, he is so talented, and I love his music. =) Plus, he is extremely handsome.  He has a certain sophistication about him as well.


I would have to say my three favorite Michael BublĂ© songs right now are Everything, Home, and Save the Last Dance for Me.  And I DONT LIKE IT when other people do covers of his songs, because I hear them and I just think, "Oh my gosh, he/she just RUINED that song."  Even if I like the artist that did the cover they don't hold a candle to Michael. =) 


NOW, we're going to play a little game =)  You may have heard of this, it's called Your Life Soundtrack.  Here's what you do:


1. Put your iTunes on shuffle.
2. For each question, press the next button to get your answer.
3. You must write down the name of the song no matter how silly it sounds! NO CHEATING!!!
4. Put any comments in brackets after the song name.

Ok, so here is MY life soundtrack:

1.How would you describe yourself? Boots On- Randy Houser [Seeing that this is a party type song, I guess it could be true.  lol.  =)  Although it would be MEN instead of Women.  lol.]

2. What do you like in a guy?  You Can Leave your Hat on- Joe Cocker [This is SUCH a sexy song. This is the live version, but you can find other videos for it on youtube. =)]


4. What is your life’s purpose?  Gimme That Girl- Joe Nichols 

5. What is your motto? (When you gonna) Give it Up to Me- Sean Paul and Keshia Cole [hahahahahaha.]

6. What do you think of your best friend?  2 Step- UNK 

7. What do you think of your friends?  Alright- Darius Rucker

8. What do your friends think of you?  She ain't got that boom Like I do- Blaque and Destiny's Child

9.  What do you think of your parents?  Second Chance- Shinedown [wow, this is fitting. "Tell my mother, tell my father, I've done the best I can, to make them realize, THIS IS MY LIFE, I hope they understand, I'm not angry, I'm just saying, sometimes goodbye is a second chance!]

10. What do your parents think of you?   Imma Star (Remix)- Jeremih feat Juelz Santana [ha, my parents wold FREAK. lol]

11. What do you think about very often?  Runaway- Love and Theft [This is SUCH a good song, and it is a bit true. =)]

12.  What do you think when you see the person you love?  The Sex is Good- Saving Abel [hahahahahahahahahaha. I love this song!!! =)]

13. What is your life story?  Smoke a Little Smoke- Eric Church  

14.  What do you want to be when you grow up?  Figured You Out- Nickelback 

15.  What is your hobby/interest?  Save the Last Dance for Me- Michael BublĂ© [HAHAHAHAHA,]

16. What will you dance to at your wedding?  Milkshake- Kelis [once again, hahahaha]

17.  What will they play at your funeral?  I can Sleep When I'm Dead- Jason Michael Carroll [oook lol.  This is a Great song!! And it is true. Live Life like there's no tomorrow!!!]

18.  What is your biggest fear?  Bittersweet Symphony- The Verve Pipe

19.  What is your biggest secret?  Ordinary- Train  [=) You know it.  "I'm anything but Ordinary!"] 

Well that was fun!  
I like playing this game to see how it turns out.  There were quite a few questions that I sorta agree with the songs, and it really surprises me because I have over 5,000 songs on my iTunes. But oh well, fun fun =)

If you have never heard these songs, or just want to listen to them just click the name of the song. =) 

And since I was going to end with the "Save the Last Dance for Me" video, but it came up in my soundtrack, I have to choose another one.... which is......"Everything" By Michael BublĂ©




Welll pooo.  They won't let me post the video, But if you want to watch it you can CLICK HERE!!!!!

So Sunday was the season finale of ABDC (Americas Best Dance Crew) and I totally forgot to post about it! I was so excited that I.aM.mE won!  And then yesterday was Tough Enough night. lol


I started watching ABDC with the first season, and I was SO happy 

Jabbawockeez won, i was also super excited for the second season!  






My favorite crew by far on the second season was SoRealCru, I loved them!  Well, they lost and I stopped watching the show. UNTIL this season, the season of the superstar.






I.aM.mE was on it, and I am a HUGE I.aM.mE fan, I already knew Pacman, ChaChi, and Moon and thought they were amazing dancers.  Chachi has swag like crazy.  But anyway, I got to see 747, jaja, and Millie and they were all amazing too!  I was so excited that they made it to the top, and they won on Sunday.  I am SO proud of them!  






They have a unique style and every week was something different, it was great. 






Congratulations I.aM.mE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 





Have a great day everyone!!


Oh PS A little song for your listening pleasure by Mr. Brantley Gilbert!!!!!!!! 






He's a hottie =)♥ ♥ ♥


Great song!!!


Well.... Bye!!!

Monday, June 6, 2011

Yay! Yay! Andy won!!!

YAY!!!!

For those of you who watch Tough Enough you know what I'm talking about.  I am so happy Andy won, I realllllly wanted Luke to lose.  I would rather have had Jeremiah win, which a lot of the crowd did too, judging by the cheers when he came out and they called his name =)

Although, I have to say, I think my favorite part of the night was between Stone Cold and Vince McMahon were going at it.  lol. Like win Vince pulls up and Stone Cold says, "I was about to announce the winner and you pull up in a limo you pompous Son of a Bi**h." I laughed out loud.

OR when Andy basically called Luke a girl when he was talking about having to be a real athlete, not your high schools softball team.  I laughed at that too.

But still, Stone Cold is my fave =) And he is super sexy, I mean, seriously. WOW. Hot Hot Hot. ♥  I mean wow, he makes those faded jeans look GOOD. Plus he is super funny. lol.  Ok, I will stop talking about him now =)♥

If you watch Tough Enough did you want Andy or Luke to win? And who was your favorite contestant?

PS: No Stone Cold chat, He's mine.♥  =P jkjk.

I hope everyone had a great weekend!!!

And that's the bottom line because.....
Stone Cold Said So!!!!

Thursday, June 2, 2011

It's almost Friday!

Yippy!!!

I can't wait, i am going to RELAX this weekend, and I am excited!
Well, I'm going to relax Saturday, Sunday is COUPON DAY!!!! YAY!!!!
I love coupons, clipping and organizing them sometimes takes forever though depending on home many inserts I get. =)

I organize them in my pretty pink binder, I use the baseball card inserts, sometimes they're a pain because you have to fold them to fit, but whatever.  I also have sections, and I organize them by expiration date. =)  it takes a while but I love it, it makes it so much easier if I'm in the store and see something I want and I have a coupon for I can just flip to the section it's in.

I also use the internet printable ones.  I use one of the expandable folders to organize and store those, because they are just to big to fold and put in my baseball card inserts. =)

It also makes it easier to plan my trips, I go through all the ads of the stores I want to go to, check the sales, matchup my coupons and make my lists.  It makes it SO much easier.

If you use coupons:
How do you organize yours?
Do you devote one day to clipping and organizing?
How do you plan your shopping trip?

If you want to use coupons and don't know where to get started I can give a few pointers, just let me know with a comment below! =)

One more thing:


I love this song.
=)

Have a great day everyone!!




Miss Imperfect

Wednesday, June 1, 2011

Yeah, I'm chillin' on a dirt road

Laid back swervin' like I'm George Jones
Smoke rollin' out the window an ice cold beer sittin' in the console
Memory Lane up in the headlights
It's got me reminisin' on the good times
I'm turnin' off of real life drive and that's right
I'm hittin' easy street and mud tires.





I absolutely LOVE this song.
I love his voice. Very much. lol ♥

Now I know that this song was written by Brantley Gilbert and Colt Ford, and I have listened to it BUT I like Jason Aldeans version more. Now that's not saying I don't like Brantley Gilbert, because I do like him ALOT and he is (ummm..... How should I word this?) HOT. Yes, Brantley Gilbert is HOT. But Colt Ford, well, Eh.  I don't really like him, but I also don't listen to him either.

But Oh Well, it's a good song and I love Jason Aldean.
And his looks don't hurt either. =) lol

But anyway.

Let me know what you think about another giveaway.

What you would want, when it should start and how long it should go and all that jazz.

Ta Ta!!!
