Cry Baby
Last week, I watched a video of Kristen Bell talking about her emotional scale on the Ellen Show.
Unfortunately, at times I cry uncontrollably even when I'm happy. I then cry harder because I'm crying. For example, this Christmas I cried because I LOVED one of the gifts from my parents. Beau looked at me in disbelief. "What do I do? When she cries because she's upset, I got that. Who cries when they're this happy?"
Well in short, I do & frequently. I also cry uncontrollably at weddings. In fact, this past weekend I was watching "Bethany Getting Married?" and I cried. Why is it that weddings make us cry? I mean, I don't know Bethany I don't frequently watch the show so there's no emotional attachement to their "love story." I can't possibly be so excited for a stranger that my emotional scale reaches it's breaking point for tears. How pathetic?
But wait.....it is Valentine's week so therefore, at least this week, I am not pathetic. I am a hopeless romantic. Yup, that's what I'm going with. I am so emotional for the love and commitment that two complete strangers are making to each other that I just can't help but succumb to tears.
I'm a sucker for love and so often people never seem more in love than they are on their wedding day.
In fact, Beau and I area headed back to DC this weekend to watch two of our dear friends tie the knot. HT and I have been friends since he was a young lad in college. During our overlapping years at school, he and I became close often discussing and advising each other on our respective romantic situations.
I remember when he met KT. I remember the shift in how he talked about her. I remember when she would join our weekend activities more and more often. After all this time she and I, too, have become close. I'm excited to watch them celebrate this special moment together. So if I thought Bethany's wedding was bad - I can only imagine what this Saturday brings.
I've got my dress, my shoes, and a handbag full of tissues. Can't wait to see you guys on Saturday!
- This video makes me laugh (nearly cry) every time I watch it. It's one of the best ways to brighten my day.
- I completely agree with her 3-7 emotional scale.

How bright will you be?
This morning J. Crew taunted me with the above question. Well J. Crew, very bright, very bright....WARNING sunglasses required.
Since moving to the Sunshine State I have been actively working to infuse color into my closet. For each piece I fall in love with I ask the following questions:
If you're in the same boat as me, trying to fill what feels like an empty closet or completing a complete wardrobe overhaul, you might not have the luxury at $110 per piece. Look no further, Old Navy has some wonderful pieces to fit in between and fill those gaps. In fact, I just recently added a few pieces to brighten up my formal "DCish" wardrobe.
Since moving to the Sunshine State I have been actively working to infuse color into my closet. For each piece I fall in love with I ask the following questions:
- Does it come in a color other than black?
- Does it come is a color I don't already have in my closet?
- Does it come in a fun pattern?
