Happy Hump Day: Henry Cavill (Part II)

I always vowed never to do a repeat hump day, but honestly, I could not help myself. British hottie, Henry Cavill, is just too beautiful for words. And I am constantly being pummeled by the most gorgeous pictures of him now that he is starring in The Immortals (directed by Tarsem, so you know it will be the most visually stunning movie ever) and as The Man of Steel himself. So I figured no one would complain if he was featured on the blog again, right? Yeah, I didn’t think so. Fun fact: did you know that his nickname growing up was Fat Cavill? Pretty hard to believe now, huh?

Magical Moments Monday

I hope you all had a great weekend! Despite all the rain and gloom in our neck of the woods, we had a really action-packed one! Here are some of the moments that made it, and the rest of last week, so special;

x. receiving an invite to a blogger event
x. playing sloshball with good friends
x. karaoking to No Doubt
x. surprise visit by friends that led to talking for hours over fruity drinks
x. creating a new playlist on Spotify, Powerful
x. putting together my application to sit for certification – big deal
x. lunch date with old coworkers/friends
x. getting a package from Romwe with adorable accessories
x. finding the perfect affordable foundation (Revlon’s ColorStay if interested)
x. starting to pack for Europe (now 2 weeks away!!)
x. Zachary Quinto finally came out

Lots of shopping to do this week – picking up final little items for our trip, as well as Halloween costumes! I love October!

Happy Hump Day: Shia LaBeouf

Sure, sure. I can be a cougar at times – what of it?? Although at times I would watch Even Stevens (my friend’s little sister really loved the show), it wasn’t until Transformers that I really noticed how adorable Shia LaBeouf was – and how talented. Sure, he’s basically a somewhat self-contained trainwreck now, but at the time, he was just the best thing since sliced bread. I don’t think I have to say that aside from amazing CGI work, he carried that movie with his perfect comedic timing and charm (too bad the same cannot be said about the other two). I just wish he would clean up the ridiculous antics and mildly creepy facial hair, because I’m pretty sure he could rework his image and be that charming kid again. Until then, enjoy the hump!

ps; like my new hump day hottie badge? I had to give the boys some kind of honor!

Magical Moments Monday

So while I was driving last week, this huge and ridiculous smile spread across my face. Why? It was an absolutely gorgeous day, I was listening to one of my favorite bands on the radio and there was little to no traffic on the expressway. I got to thinking that the most simple things in life often go overlooked. However, oftentimes these overlooked moments are what makes life so magical. We tend to focus on the negative…well, maybe I should rephrase that. I tend to focus on the negative. I like to think that I am a pretty cheerful person, but I sometimes let myself get too overwhelmed with the seemingly bad or stressful. I won’t lie, this year has been a difficult one, but in the grand scheme of things: I am such a lucky girl.

Happy Hump Day: Daniel Craig

You ladies really love Daniel Craig. I don’t think much of him, but figured I would throw out a freebie for you all. After all, I like doing that from time to time. 😉 Sure, the man has a ridiculous body that looks beyond fantastic in clothes (specifically in this poster for Cowboys and Aliens), but I just can’t give his face the time of day. Butter face, I believe is the term. However, he really is a great actor and definitely tends to pick some pretty stellar roles. Most recently, he will be seen in David Fincher’s Girl with the Dragon Tattoo based off the bestselling book trilogy (all the best movies are based off books lately, huh?). I have not read this series yet (maybe some good airplane material for my upcoming vacation), but I did watch the trailer and it looks all sorts of magnificent. Fincher is one of my favorite directors, and his style is pretty close to impeccable so I have pretty high expectations.
