Power my Shower!

hmm... I'm actually not sure how I feel about these..

A RAIN Shower?

I think they look really pretty, but I don't think they're very practical. I like showers with lots of power! I would not like some weak drizzle in my shower! Ew.

Maybe someone can think of the super storm shower!? That would sound more up my alley. Maybe even a WAVE shower!!!!! You know like those wave pools! Awesome, I gotta confess I was a lifeguard at one of those during my Highschool years and let me tell you, everytime they'd turn the waves on, I'd have to kinda force myself to swallow... scary stuff...

So no rain showers at our new place, a bath however is in order. You can do all kinds of beauty treatments such as bathing in milk like Cleopatra!!! (whole milk, non of that 2% nonsence), or rose petal bath! Yummy! Vito thinks he is too much man to be taking baths.... well I don't know, I BET he'd enjoy nice aromatic bath with lavender salts and aromatherapy candles....

white sand white? or japan blossoms white? morning after the party on the yacht cappuccino froth white????

As you know this whole month we are readying the new house for our move in begining of December. It's hard work!! Yes it's very decadent to say oh... I've been painting the walls all weekend... and I loved it, there is something so exotic about doing things with your hands...

Well, yeah for the first 10 minutes! Then you sweat and feel like a servant and then you get paint on your haaaaaaaa-aa-a-a-aaannnnndd waaahhh!!!

Ok, I'll be a big girl now.

So anyway, we are still in process of cosmetic adjustments to the interior (aha, you like my half-way pro lingo eh?).


So let me recap:


We have choosen the the paint, do you know how hard it is to choose the color that will represent you? Calm you or cheer you up? That will channel all the right things in all the right moments? Do you KNOW how hard it is to choose the RIGHT shade of white???!?!

Everyone is asking if I'm having fun decorating, we're far away from that still! For now the only decoration in the house is Vito and his cute painting outfit...

yeah right

I just HAD to break the 'radio silence' to say:

http://www.nothingbutbonfires.com/?q=node/511

Seriously!??? SERIOUSLY!??? You REALLY had NOOOO idea??

I have a bunch of blogs that I look in on once in a while on my bloglines. This is one of them. The blogger is a lovely writer, very smart and very cute, so basically I ''approve''. However this post really surprised me...

Summary:
She is dating a guy for a long time -yeeeeeeears, she is living with him for a while... They go to Rome. He proposes... and she claims she had NO IDEA. Yeah, maybe no idea it would take that LONG!! But not that he proposed!! Please stop... just stop now...

Ok, maybe the circumstance of the proposal could be surprising, but they were in ROME!!! Nothing surprising about that come-on!

Note to all guys about to propose to their girlfriends in (insert any romantic destination): if you propose and she acts all surprised... she is LYING!

Disclaimers:
This post does not mean at all that guys should not propose to girls in romantic locations.
This post also does not mean that girls should not continue to lie through their teeth and say that they had NO IDEA
It just means that ... we KNOW the 'real' truth... we know... ;)
