Here, but not really here

That's right ladies, today I'm in beautiful NOLA and I'm purdy darn excited about it. Hopefully by the time you're reading this, I'm enjoying delicious beignets and coffee at the famous Cafe Du Monde. I'll cheers ya one okay?!?!

1] Pamela Anderson weighs LESS than me -YES! Home girl with hoohas the size of my booty weighs less than I do currently. Did I mention she is 5' 7" and I'm 5' 3" on a tall day!?! I just...can't....I mean....WHAT!?!? Granted she's a strict vegan and I've yet to find a sugary treat I don't enjoy [minus anything pumpkin flavored ;)], so I can see how she keeps lean and I well, don't. I'd like to state for the record that I think she looks amazing and more power to her for completing the NYC marathon last weekend. Guess I need to hit the pavement and toss the leftover Halloween candy ASAP!

2] Bullying in the NFL - Bullying is wrong, period. I don't care if you are a three year old bullying a two year old, a middle schooler, high schooler, college student, athlete or adult, it's 100% wrong. The story about the bullying of Jonathan Martin, by Richie Incognito is disgusting and horrible. I'm an athlete and I understand the 'hazing' involved with rookies, but there is always an amount of human respect. Sadly, that wasn't the case in this instance. Incognito is a despicable example of a human being and I honestly hope he gets what's coming to him.

3] New Name - Yes, I'm finally taking the time to change my name. I think I'm the only girl in the Facebook world that didn't change her name the weekend of her wedding. I've had many friends married after me and they have already changed their name on Facebook. I know I need to start the official process of changing my name, and I'm taking the steps now, but am I the only one that didn't/doesn't feel the need to immediately change my name on Facebook!?!?

4] Shadier than Slim Shady -I'm talking bout the gubernatorial elections here in Virginia. It was revealed over the weekend that an Obama campaign bundler was secretly helping fund the Virginia Libertarian gubernatorial candidate, in an effort to split the conservative votes.I don't know about you but that's some shady BS!!! I can only imagine the outrage if this situation were flipped and the GOP was at fault. But, of course, it will be glossed over in our media [Benghazi debacle anyone?!?!] since their 'good guy' won the election. As a former journalist the bias in our media makes me so unbelievably upset. The media has been bought by our President and his party and therefore we only get the news they deem worthy. BARF!

5] Christmas Cards - Alright ladies, I need your help. I'm designing our FIRST Christmas cards and want to ask y'all who is the best [and possibly cheapest] option. I see TinyPrints on different blogs, but haven't used them yet. Are their prices good for their product? Are there any other good picture Christmas card vendors? Since these are our first Christmas cards, I want to include at least one wedding picture, so I'm looking at picture cards. Thanks in advance!
