Top Five LOL Animals of the Day

Top Ten Signs You're Addicted to Candy Crush (by Pinky Lovejoy)

As evidenced by my "all or nothing" love for anything I truly enjoy (i.e. the color pink, flamingos, Hello Kitty...well, you get the idea), it should come as no surprise that after only one short week I am now fully obsessed with the stupid Candy Crush game. In fact, my famous last words (before becoming completely obsessed) were, "I don't really see what the big deal is anyway."

And so, without further ado, I present to you my Top Ten Signs You're Addicted to Candy Crush:
10) When you close your eyes to sleep, you see Color Bombs attacking your face
9) When talking to someone, you try and connect their eyes and their nose to line up three in a row.
8) While driving, you also do this with cars. It's too bad once they line up they don't just pop!
7) The time it takes to wait between getting more lives is the longest time ever in the history of the world.

6) You spend all your free time (when you're not playing the game, that is) looking up strategies, reading blogs from other people about the game, and laughing along with their shared obsession.
5) For the first time ever you're completely OK with spamming your Facebook friends for additional lives because waiting for more is unthinkable.
4) When you find out someone else plays, you immediately want to know what level they're at and compare battle stories.

3) You don't remember what life was like before you started playing.

2) You know the difference between Candy Crush and Bejeweled and secretly believe the creators of Candy Crush somehow sprinkled some crack on it.

1) Your "come on" line to your equally-obsessed fiancee is, "I've got some candy you can crush."

Pinky's Fandance - Joe Lo Truglio

Here's what I like most about Joe Lo Truglio (aside from the fact that he's good friends with Sam Trammell, which, of course, is a MAJOR plus)

when I saw him again at a recent premiere, I accidentally called him Al (because I'm a spacey blonde sometimes) instead of his actual name. Instead of correcting me, he acted super flattered that I asked for a picture and was as nice as can be. WIN!

Best. Garter. Ever.

My sweetheart surprised me with this amazing garter a few weeks ago and I forgot to share it with you.

Not only does the pink perfectly match my dress, but it has a mini flask to go with it! LOVE it! Thanks, babe!

Celebrity Wrap Up - Sunday Edition

Hello and welcome to Saturday's edition of Celebrity Wrap Up.

Well, that just gives an entire new meaning to someone being "cagey."

Oh, Lana. It's OK. There's no reason to be depressed. How can I help?

They seem to go together as a couple, no?

Somewhere out there, Cher is naked.

Do you think birds get confused when they see this hat?

Top Five LOL Dogs of the Day

Surprise Brooches!

Yesterday I received a package in the mail containing these beautiful brooches - 14 to be exact!

This is incredibly helpful considering we'll be using a ton for the bridal bouquets, but there's only one problem - there was no note and I have no idea who they're from. How can I thank them if I don't know who sent them? Whoever you are, thank you so much!

Pinky's Fandance - William Ragsdale

I used to love the show Herman's Head. LOVED it! I thought it was so clever and fun. I always wanted to meet "Herman" himself, William Ragsdale, and at the last Hollywood Show I finally had my shot!

William was very cordial, although his booth was fairly close to ours and most of the time he looked kind of bored. Keith was actually in a movie with him, which I thought was kind of fun trivia. Not sure what he's up to now, but it was cool to meet him.

Worst. Company. Ever! Revolution Laboratories, LLC

After spending years in Customer Service, there's absolutely nothing I hate more than being treated poorly by a company. I especially hate when they try to trick you and then make you feel like it's your fault. Yesterday I had the disappointing experience of dealing with a horrible company by the name of Revolution Laboratories, LLC. I had ordered a "free trial offer" of some green coffee extract pills (to lose weight for the wedding) last week, but made a note to cancel in a week since after 30 days you have to pay $79.95. Ugh. When I called, I was told that I could cancel for the low, low cost of $30. Um, what now? Where did my free trial go? Apparently, the free trial is only for 14 days, but they sent me a month's worth of pills. If I didn't use them all, I could send them back, otherwise it's $30. WOW!!! What a racket!

So, I was already mad as a hen about that crap marketing racket when I noticed something about the bottle today when I went to send it back (because we all know I'm NOT paying to keep it). Um, does that look like Green Coffee Extract to you? Now, granted, I probably should've noticed that when it arrived, but I'm busy and I didn't know what it looked like and I trusted they sent me the correct product. Duh. So when I sent them a picture of it today and asked if this was correct, they said no, I should return it. Um. Let me get this straight - not only did they try and rip me off for some crappy pills, but now I'm supposed to return the incorrect bottle THEY sent me at MY cost and then I won't even get the free supply I ordered? WOW. That's a great company there. JERKS!

Celebrity Wrap Up - Saturday Edition

Hello and welcome to Saturday's edition of Celebrity Wrap Up.

Is it her dress? Her posture? Why does she look like she's got boobs in her stomach?

What is going on with his hair? Is it a wig? Plastic? Glued on?

That looks dangerous.

1994 called. They'd like their flannel back.

Those camo PJs are NOT doing their job. I can still see her.

Top Five FAILS of the Day

Man, I Wish I Could Hear That Conversation

I wonder what Tay-Tay was saying to Selena. Was it about her ex, Harry Styles (and is that why she was looking so glamorous?)? Was it about Miley? Was it about N'Sync?

Why didn't she have a microphone on so we could all know what was behind it. :)

Pinky's Fandance Flashback - Marisa Tomei

This is what it looks like when you finally get a picture with someone you've been trying to get a picture with for over ten years and they still don't really want to do it.

To her credit, she did it....barely. But she kind of looks like she's in pain about it.

Happy Anniversary, Mom & Mike!

Today is my Mom and Mike's 14th wedding anniversary. Although they don't seem to be doing anything exciting (unless you count driving from California to Utah as exciting), I really hope they find something that makes them smile together today.
