So here are some random things about me lately... I didn't feel like posting all "truths" about me, but rather just stuff I'm thinking about currently..I mean it's all true.. yeah yeah I make my own rules...haha..
1. All the emails I'm getting about sales, specials, coupons, etc from everyone from Amazon to Pottery Barn and JCrew are freaking.me.out. I can't get personal email at work ...and those are sent to my personal email.. so they arrive on my phone. And for reals.. it's like my phone is on freaking crack with the way it's hyper-vibrating with every email. I go see it and guess what.. it's another special. Good gracious. And while I'm on this...hey, Cole Haan, that $100 bucks off the $400 is great, but if you're gonna send me an email, I'm gonna need it to say $300 off $400. Thanks. Also.. Jcrew sends me emails called "Jenna's picks" Okay.. who the hell is Jenna and why is she picking things for me? hahaha! (I know she's the creative director...just sayin).
2. I think I want to do a couch to 5K program. So far, I have the couch part down. Goal: St. Patrick's Day Run (aka when it's not 5 degrees outside). Thoughts or advice appreciated if you've done a program like this to get in gear. I am also looking for easy, healthy recipes...EASY.. haha.. :) Jackie=wanting to get healthy AND save cash/stop eating out.
3. I see the pics of pretty lights in big cities and it really makes me want to get all bundled and freeze my arse off walking around NYC or Chicago or somewhere. *sigh* I really don't dig cold, but I dig taking trips when it's cold...even to somewhere ELSE cold. *shrugs*
4. I really dig my job. Yesterday, my co worker and I were moving offices and while packing individually, each came across our "incident response team" vests. Basically, if there's a major catastrophe, we help direct people. (I guess that's 'other duties as assigned.' No idea how we were lucky enough to be selected for said job. You're jealous. I can tell). Anyway, we each put ours on without knowing the other had done it and then saw each other and laughed. My co workers are fun. Fact. (please ignore the fact that I look like a crazy person. Someone woke up late...er..me.)
I also have a lot of randomness in my office. I'm sure people think I'm a wack job if they used my office while I was at the United W@y. I really dig kiddie meal toys that shoot things like disks, etc. Sonic is awesome at these kinds of toys. I randomly shoot said projectiles at coworkers. (ignore the 100 calorie oreo pack. It was my lunch. Busy day today).
6. Another addiction: Emergen-crack... er... Emergen-C.. It's the same thing I think b/c I can't.stop.drinking.it. I drink two one or so daily and yeah... amazing. My recommendation: raspberry
7. Confession: I'm still laughing at the Tiger Woods jokes. I realize they're not that funny. Maybe I'm just needing a laugh. hah.. I dunno. And also.. I really dig the name Elin. Never dawned on me, but I do. Anyway....
8. I thought the gap commercials with the kids were cute for about 5 seconds.. Now, I'm kinda over them. "I love my comfy sweater..how cute are these boots?!" Aghhhhh stuckinmyhead!
9. I got tickets to see Legally BLONDE when it comes here just after the first of the year! YAY!
10. I made Gracie wear a Santa hat yesterday. Pictures are to follow.
I hate it when people just say do this if you want, BUT it's a VERY busy time of year and I know a lot of us have been hit/missing on our regular bloggage... So I'm quite serious when I say I want to read your random honestness if you're game to post them so please consider yourself awarded and tagged!! XOXO!

There are a lot of funny jokes I've heard about the ticket sales at the BOK center... since it's on Sammy's tour circuit... about there being nothing to do in Tulsa besides going to concerts... LOL ;-) But really, DON'T pass on the Black Eyes Peas concert. For realz, they are PHENOM performers. SEE THEM!!! xoxo
Cute post! It's always fun to find out new things about my blog friends!
awww jax thankyou soo much! haha! but your figure is better :p xxxx
Congrats on your award! I wanna try a couch to 5k challenge. Those look like so much fun!
I am loving the photo of you and your colleague in the vests!!! I wish we had some of those laying around our office.
haha...LOVE the vests! Too funny that you and your co-worker had the same great idea! TOO FUNNY!! i love your honest posts!
I'm so ridiculously jealous you got Legally Blonde tickets. I really really want to go to see it when it's here.
Hahaha love the vests!
I'm doing couch to 5K! I just started this week (only actually done it once because it is so cold outside). I like it. My goal us also the St Patty's run. Let me know if you want to walk/run and I'll join you.
Legally Blonde will be so fun! You must do a recap post (Britney concert style) after you go! I'll have to keep my eye out to see if it is coming to Seattle.
I want to go to NYC so bad! And yes in the cold :)
yay for the award girly!!
i want to try emergen-c! how fun that you have tickets to see legally blonde!!
i still think the gap commercials are cute! ;)
best of luck with the running hun!
i just started running again this week and i've been doing 3.5 miles a day. before this week i could never run more than a mile so i'm quite proud of myself.
hope you have a wonderful weekend sweet girl!! XO!
Congrats on the award!! I also have a thing for putting random kiddy meal toys in my office at work. Actually our whole marketing team collects random objects, so I guess I fit right in, haha!
I get those stupid Jenna's Picks emails too! Ok, I SO didn't know who she was, so I'm glad to know that she is not just stalking me : )
I'm going to see Legally Blonde in January too. I can't wait!
you are a RARE member of the i like my job club. so jealous
Couch to 5K is the best! You should look into the podcasts, they set the pace to music, tell you when to walk/run, and some give little hints or encouragement to keep going. It's like running with a coach in your ear!
Lemme know if you decide to couch to 5k - i'll be on the couch:) hehe. Seriously though, such bad time of the year to do this unless youre planning on running outside only and then its freakin freezing!!! Cuz the Gyms get SO PACKED come Jan 1. I'm not looking forward to it.
Hilarious pic of you and your coworker, and I CANT WAIT to see Gracie in her Santa hat. Now everytime I get anything that remotely looks costumish to Bondi he runs and hides under someone elses desk here in the office.. like, OH NO YOU DONT BEOTCH.
I am a graduate of the couch to 5K program...it is awesome. I tried it once, and thought I could start at like week 4 becuase I was cool. It didn't work. It starts out slow and picks up! I had a great podcast, I think it was Robert Urley, look him up on iTunes. You will have a love/hate relationship with him. I'm jealous about Legally Blonde, my parents have tickets but we are out of town while it is here :(
I SO miss going to shows. We used to go to them like every weekend. The dude has put a cramp in our style. Ah ha ha
You are so cute... I love that you love your job!!
You are amazing, I am so addicted to EmergenC {spell right?!} and it looks like you have a blast at your job, how fun! He he, hope you make it past your couch 5K program, I have that prob too...we can do it!
lol you're funny. I love that you love your job and i wish that right now I had a hot vest like that to wear and joke about. I'm sitting here in a boring fleece jacket... how fun is that? NOT fun!
