Rush Hour?

Yesterday,  I was stopped behind this dude...


Does  the license plate read "i want on you?"

Really? Toyota Camry.
Maybe like a hot guy in a HUMMER...
and even that would be questionable.

when the light turned green I pulled up next to him & it was an asian man.
Reminded me of the guy from the hangover- & then the plate kind of made sense.

But let's be honest...
it wasn't the guy from the hangover
&
we are in the middle of kansas!
kind of weird?

I'm still confused by this public display of arrogance.


In other news,
 the House got painted last week!!!

I have succumb to the fact that it's yellow.
we picked out a light tan (sherwin williams, "pinenut")
except when i first saw the paint job i said-
OMG it's  yellow!

 Of all the things to go wrong-
 the exterior paint color is kind of a big deal!

**Commence internal paint struggle...**
should we repaint?
Does it look too country cottage-ish?
Are you kidding me "pine nut"? You really let me down!!!
You looked so tan on the 5 inch color swatch! Why the hell are you yellow on the house!?

All along I kept saying I wanted a "clean" look on the outside,
Tan house, white trim, dark red brick.
It was going to be great!

Then....
sunday afternoon,
we stopped by the house & ran into the neighborhood developer.
We were standing outside talking to her and that's when she said those 4 magical words...
"it looks so clean!"
 **cease internal struggle!!!**

that's all it took!
a little validation.
So here it is...
our clean yellow house*


*did i really just write a blog on paint color? where my kids at? where's my swagger waggon?
when did i go from 25 to 35?

MORE to come on the swagger wagon in the next post--

 i will announce the name of my next blog post...
