Another Letter

Dear girl in my toning class last night:

I hate you. Thank you for spilling your cold bottle of water all over my jacket last night, therefor causing me to wear a drenched and freezing coat on my long hike to BFE where my car was parked. As a result this has made me feel under the weather, all I want to do is sleep. I hope you are happy.

You suck I hope I never see you or your water bottle again!
Best wishes...not

Anthropologie

Dear Anthropologie:

Why must you make me want everything you have to offer? Why must all of your stuff be grossly overpriced? I want it all, just send me a store and I could die in peace. But alas I must confess...I have never purchased anything from your wonderful establishment...not of my choice but of my bank account's. Could you please consider an outlet store of some sorts? I don't even care if you sell last seasons merch...I am in need of a discount majorly! PLEASE {insert begging and sobbing on hands and knees}. I would greatly appreciate it.

Love love always,
Your wanna be customer,

Morgan Virginia

Wednesday Night: Core Fusion

I went to a fitness class last night at the South Davis Rec Center called: Core Fusion. I have gone to this class before but last night was particularly rough. Instead of fusing my core I promise I think my spine is fused! My lower back is throbbing which is directly related to the permanent reverse plank position I was in for around 55 minutes. Blah! I know that I will thank her later but Kristen of SDRC: I don't like you, or your core fusion/reverse plank class ;)! I honestly don't know if I will make it to kick box tonight...I super need it though after eating that pasta I made last night (have you tried it yet?) I am pretty sure I ate a whole stick of burnt brown butter all by myself. Really why can't I be blessed with a super duper high metabolism, or a thyroid problem? Yeah I know I wouldn't want it if I had it blah, blah, blah I think that's what skinny people with those problems tell you to make you feel better about your chunkiness. I really hope I make it tonight...or I develop a skinny disease ;) hope you all have a great Thursday! I can't wait for my rio salad tonight and shows ;)! Love love.

ps: Don't forget to check out the Meet Virginia site I am just about to post one of my latest crafts and how you can do it in your house ;). Let me know what you think!

The Taco Bell Diet

Mmmk has anyone seen the commercials about the "New" Taco Bell Diet? I am sorry but this has to be a joke right...? Because all Taco Bell has brought me is depression, and three inches added to both love handles. Things at Taco Bell have just gotten out of hand...completely! Hmmmm well Love love ;)

I'm Scared!

Has anyone seen The Lovely Bones?? We watched it with BF's Christy and Jason last night...I am still trying to decide if it was a good movie or not...? You know what I will just flat out say that it was a good movie since all we did on the ride home last night was talk about it and I keep getting chills down my spine!! Just looking at this pic makes me poop my pants because of scariness!

Stanley Tucci as George Harvey...the KILLER!

This actor seriously needs an award for this movie! Usually he plays the funny guy like Julia Childs' husband, and the art director for The Devil Wears Prada. I for reals hated him in this..so kudoos to you Stanley for being awesome!

I thought Saorise Ronan the girl who played Suzy the lead did an amazing job as well, and I think she is drop dead gorgeous! Why can't my pale skin look this pretty and porcelain doll like?


Also this is still haunting me from my trip to the grocery store the other day:


Ok Heidi you seriously are delusional if you think you look hot now! You were perfectly fine before! Who gets a brow lift at 23?? Her boobs look like cantelopes! STOP PLEASE!! Or you will end up looking like the notorious cat lady.


Please say that I don't have nightmares tonight from the previously discussed items in this post!! Love love

Hate Mail

Dear Google Maps:

I hate you. You have completely ruined my life. If I could sue you I would. If you were a bug I would for sure squish you, but not enough to kill you the first time just so you can feel extreme pain and I would let you limp around helplessly and then finish you off.

I hate your no good rotten stinking guts
Oh and you suck!

Let me give some background to this letter: many of you have asked where my interview was at...I prefer to keep that a secret but if you see me in the real world I will of course tell you. So yesterday was the absolute worst day of my entire life! I will start at the beginning, I had this amazing opportunity to interview at a clothing company I prepped weeks in advance for this day; I dyed my hair as mentioned, cut my bangs (which look fab), bought a skirt from the company I was interviewing at, bleached my teeth, painted my nails, and had my teacher write me the sweetest letter of recommendation. Needless to say I was feeling super awesome about this, I felt confident that I was qualified and prepared. So flash forward to yesterday I printed off directions to the interview, continued to perfect my look for the interview, and made sure I had an ample amount of time to get there....I left an hour and a half early to make sure I got there with plenty of time to spare. I then decided to head off and pick up a soda on my way down...I was super nervous! I reached the city where the interview was at and followed the directions Google maps gave me to a T.....did I end up where the interview was....NOOOOO! I ended up in a residential area on some friggin mountain, so instead of panicking I tried to find the location by following the cross streets (I promise I am good at directions), but where did I end up??? Back in the neighborhood on the mountain!! I drove around for over an hour trying to find this place, I tried finding the phone number to call someone but it was unlisted on Goog411. I then decided after I was now an hour late for my interview to just call it and drive home...I felt numb the entire drive home and for the remainder of the day....I couldn't even cry....I just felt nothing...and still do. Yeah you might say that I am over reacting but this is something that I have wanted forever...this was my chance to be able to have a job that utilizes creativity. When I got home I hurried and wrote the girl I was interviewing with an email apologizing and begging for another chance. She hasn't written me back which is a really bad sign. Ahhh so in conclusion I hate my life today and loathe Google maps.

ps: to make matters worse we went out to a friends house for dinner last night and of course used Google maps and got lost AGAIN!!! Hate hate hate you!

pps: tiff I found Logan's BFF last night: Lehi it was like taking step back in time ;)

ppps: Please hope that she writes me back!

pppps: Love love

M&N

I have been meaning to post this AHH-MAZING craft that my pretty Christmas tree was blocking all month ;) so here is its debut!


I found this totally awesome project HERE! Thanks for posting this Miken, I think it turned out just fab I decided to add some fabric swirls with the scraps in each corner. Also in the wire hanging I will be putting some of our new pictures that the wonderful Katie Oborn took, check her out HERE she is enchanting ;) (I am watching the wonderful You've Got Mail! Remember how Cathlene Kelly's mom is enchanting? I love love this show it's so romantic!)

I hope that I can finish my plate project that has been put on the back burner for-EVER!

And can I please have this chair from Urban...its beyond beautiful and would look amazing in the corner of my room in between the back burner plate project previously mentioned? Granted it is over priced....but its pretty.....

Also I had my dear sweet husby dye my hair last night...he did a wonderful job absolutely wonderful I got the darkest of dark brown but I just don't feel like its dark enough...do I dare dye it a soft black?! I will prob just wait on that for now I am thinking during the warmer months when I have a tan to dye it black...I told this to Nate the other day he said it was exotic....I will just take that as a good thing ;) love you ;).

My question to you is well let me give brief background: I used to have a full on bang a couple of months ago, I switched to just a side sweep and am thinking about going back to the full? What do you think? I need your opinions por favor (That's me practicing my exoticness ;). Much thanks for your help ;) Love love.
