Vivienne at The V Spot tagged me to answer a couple of questions. Y’all know I’m more than a little narcissistic, and I love to talk about myself, so here goes:
What is your current obsession?
Well, V, could you narrow it down a bit? I have so many obsessions. Like staring at this poster and, like Sheila, repeating to myself “He’s underage, Andrea! He’s underage!”
Or spending every free moment reading Dead and Gone, the newest release in the Charlaine Harris’s Sookie Stackhouse series.
And of course, headbands and hair bows. Love them.
Which item of clothing do you wear the most often?
I have a dress that I purchased at least two years ago at Target that I wear all the time. It has three quarter length sleeves, and I wear it summer through winter. In the summer, I wear it with bare legs. When it is a little cooler, I wear it with leggings, and in the winter, I pair it with tights and boots. I don’t have a full length picture of me in the dress, but the super stylish Kimberly is wearing it here.
Left: Don’t ask. Who knows what was going on there. Right: I think this was taken in December 2008.
Left: self-portrait taken just a few weeks ago. Right: This was in December 2008, a different day that the picture above.
This one was taken last week. The green flower gets a lot of love whenever I wear this dress.
I don’t know why I felt the need to prove to you that I wear this picture a lot. Or that I like to take lots of pictures of myself. I told you I was a little narcissistic.
What’s for dinner?
Mexican, baby! It’s the Cinco de Mayo.
What are you listening to?
Clicking. My husband is playing a computer game and I’m listening to the clicking of his mouse.
Say something about the person who tagged you.
Vivienne is a hoot! This girl tells it like it is. I love blog that keep it real.
What is your favorite vacation spot?
My parents own a vacation home in Gatlinburg, Tennessee. This is the view from their balcony.

I don’t have a picture of the actual beach on my computer, but this is the beach house we stay in when we got to Edisto Beach, SC every year. My mom’s boss owns the house, and he gives it to her for two weeks each year. She invites a huge crowd, and we have a blast playing games, drinking, sunning ourselves, and riding around the island on the golf cart drooling over the gorgeous homes.
I’m such a mooch. If it weren’t for my parents, Jason and I wouldn’t vacation at all. We just tag along on all their planned vacations.
What am I reading right now?
Taking Charge of Your Fertility (ok, I’m lugging it around but haven’t actually opened it yet)
Dead and Gone by Charlaine Harris
Use four words to describe yourself.
- Compassionate
- Drama queen
- Bossy
- Loyal
What is your guilty pleasure?
I love to go to a restaurant, by myself, and read a good book while I eat a good meal. I’m sure some people would consider that hell, but it really is bliss to me.
And celebrity gossip blogs and tabloids. Although I’m a little ashamed to admit it.
What is the first thing on your list to do for spring?
I just checked it off – the hubs and I plated some flowers this weekend. And by “the hubs and I” I mean I planted while he stood around and lectured me on the proper way to do it.
I do believe my neighbors heard me call my husband an asshat. Possibly.
What do you look forward to?
The end of the month – we’re going to Edisto for a long weekend. I can’t wait!
I tag anyone who would like to complete this!
I received this award from Justine at Tiney’s Froggy Bloggy and Angie at Tails of a Groomer Angie. Thanks, girls! I’d like to pass this on to Rebecca Jo at Knit By God’s Hand. Her blog is so uplifting. Thanks for being a faithful reader and commenter!
HAPPY WEDNESDAY!

you are hilarious! i love the pictures you take of yourself. you are very good at those self-portraits. we are vacation mooches, too :)
Hey there! Thanks for playing along. :)
I love the pix! We're big fans of the self portrait, too. (Our wedding "portrait" was a self portrait, and it's the best photo we have of us together!)
omigosh please take me to the beach with you! you have no idea how depressing detroit is!!!
you look so pretty, as always!
Love the Hair Bands.. I'm getting my Hair cut off next week.. I might have to get some of them. I played along on my Blog..
That dress is so cool! And you wear that flower so well...it really compliments your shiny sassy hair! I also giggled at your use of asshat :)
That was totally fun to read!! And that dress must be super cute on you to get to wear it all year round!!
Hope your Cinco de Mayo was good!!

LOL don't you love when someone overhears the "affection" you have for your husband at that moment.
I wish my parents owned a vacation house - so jealous.
Have a great trip.
You look very pretty with those flowers in your hair....

I just finished Dead and Gone! It was sooo good! I can't wait to hear what you think about it :)
Girl, we have so much in common! Too bad we don't live closer - we could wear our matching dresses and have lunch!!
Hahaha, you are too cute!
I am so bumming this for FMM! Do you mind? Love the answers btw! and me and my hubby are known for tagging along on parent's vacations too!
Wow you do look so sexy. What a fun tag.
LOVE the cute flowers in your hair! Adorable. And I am so jealous of your beach vacation!!!
I had a bit of a hard time dropping $24.50 on Taking Charge, but I just started it over the weekend and believe me, it's totally worth it. I'm only a third of the way through and I have already learned a ton.
OHHHH fun!!! Thanks for the award!!! Totally surprised me when I got down to that part!!!
I have to say, I'm totally obsessed with big flowers in the hair lately too!!!! You're look fantastic on you! It just makes a girl look so feminine... like you should be getting ready to break out in a musical any moment too...
Bee-u-ti-ful!!!
I looooooveeee your pictures! I wish I could find a dress like that one! I've gained so much weight lately that nothing looks good on me anymore. I'm getting tired of wearing black pants to work! Too bad you can't come and vacation in Wisconsin...we could go clothes shopping!!!!
Hugz,
Michele
Your headbands are SOOO cute! I love it that you have a comfy dress you wear all the time. I do too! Dresses are so much better than jeans, capris or shorts in the summer. Soooo much cooler! Being a girl is the best!
I love the crazy made up profanities we sometimes make up to call our spouses! I love asshat! That is great!
That dress and the headbands are so cute!
Love the view from the house in Gatlinburg...
Lovely beach house!
And i had mexican last night too for dinner - yummy! Gotta love Cinco de Mayo!
Girl, you are too cute! I love reading your blog. I wish I had that dress!!
Andrea you are so cute! I love hair clips too and i am dying for a flowery headband. you rock them girl, not sure I could but I'm gonna try anyway! just have to find the right one. love getting to know you more via these posts :)
Great post! Love the hair bands. We love Gatlinburg its so pretty!
Great post! I love it! Sorry I missed TATT again, I swear as soon as this dog show is over, it's back to normal around here! :)
Let me ask you this, since you answered all those other questions. Do you ALWAYS look so put-together? I mean, do you ever just lounge around in a t-shirt and a ripped pair of shorts? Is your hair always done to perfection, in addition to your makeup. 'Cause really? You're starting to piss me off with that shit. I want to see you look nasty!!!!!!!!!
And take me to Edisto with you. That way I can see you first thing in the morning.
Justine ;o )
Both of those vacation spots are beautiful and they look very relaxing. I would tag along with the family too.
I love the self portraits and how the hair bows match the outfits! You're so cute :)
Too funny. I just love it when I do all the work and Michael stands over my shoulder critiquing. So annoying. I love the dress. It's super cute! You look adorable in headbands.
Fun tag!
I want to tag along on your vacations to the beach -- sounds so fun! (And that fertility book is actually pretty good -- I read it years ago before I got pregnant).
