Three Things Thursday–Excuses

Lunch

FacebookTweetPin
19 May

It’s Three Things Thursday. Here are three excuses I have…

1. I drank a massive smoothie on the way to work. Note the sopping wet hair and lack of make-up. My excuse: I was on Mexican time running late (when in reality this is a daily look/occurrence).DSCN0080 (800x600)

2. Lunch involved MASSIVE amounts of Cheetos croutons and dark chocolate melted on sunflower butter bread.DSCN0081 (800x600)

My excuse: Life without Cheetos and chocolate is for people who hate themselves. I mean, stress.DSCN0086 (800x600)

3. I drank a Vitaminwater while out running errands. Notice that I still haven’t brushed my hair or put on make-up. Nothing a little rubberband and sunglasses can’t hide fix, right?

My excuse: It’s hard to do your make-up or brush your hair when your fingers are covered in powdery Cheetos deliciousness and melted chocolate. DSCN0088 (800x600)

Don’t Forget!!! Tomorrow at 3pm EST/12pm PST (for my CA peeps) – It’s the #OBandFitblog Flashmob

    “Life without Cheetos and chocolate is for people who hate themselves.” That’s the best thing i’ve heard all week. LOVE it! Have fun in Baltimore! 🙂

    Sometimes getting ready gets pushed aside for more sleep! or working out. Two things I would much rather do then make the time to brush my hair and put on makeup. I’m sure my coworkers really appreciate that. haha

    Brushing hair and putting on makeup just wastes valuable blogging time – I mean unless you are going to a wedding or meeting the president or something what’s the point? I wish I could do the flashmob thing but every site is blocked from work (except yours, oddly/luckily) and I have one of those old fashioned cell phones that exists only to make calls, Zack Morris style….

    I am with Emma… I don’t believe in brushing my hair or wearing makeup either. When I actually do either of these things everyone compliments me though so maybe I should make it more of a practice?

    I am all for this flashmob thing.
    Also, I’m a guy so the day I have to brush my hair is the day I shave my head.
