always alexandria's official hottness monster list...

Last evening on Twitter was super fun times (yes, I did swear I would never have a Twitter...obviously I lied. and now I am addicted). Some of my favy Twitter/blog pals and I were bored out of our minds...so I enlisted their assistance of compiling the first ever, 'Always Alexandria's Official Hottness Monster List'. Thanks ladies for all of your fabulous input.

And now...for the monsters of hottness...
(these are in no specific order)...

Hottness Monster #1:
Puck from 'Glee'. I have yet to watch 'Glee' (I am working on it people!) however Kristin and Amy believed he should be on my list. I also believe my real-life bff Jil believes he is foxy as well...and in this picture he looks yummy...

Hottness Monster #2-for-the-price-of-one:

Paul Wesley and Ian Somerhalder are two of the sexiest men on television these days. Personally, I think Damon is hotter than Stefan but...I would be happy with either/or...

Hottness Monster #3:

David Beckham was a suggestion from AshtonDene...and if you really need an explanation as to why he is on this list...well ask me and then I will give you an explanation...

Hottness Monster #4:Michael C. Hall is the sexiest serial killer I have ever seen. I love him bad. Although, a lot of his hottness is his voice...his face is not too shabby either...

Hottness Monster #5:
Angelina Jolie is the only female to make my list...why? Um...because I have a giant girl-crush on her. She is the definition of gorgeous...and if you call her a homewrecker I will climb through the computer and kick you...for real...(yes, Jil I am talking to YOU)...

Hottness Monster #6:Jim Sturgess was a giant hit with most of the ladies. Lauren and ViennalsWaiting were especially enthusiastic over this choice, and real-life pal Jil is in love with him also. Jim is a super-fox and I love him. He can sing. He has a British accent. He has hot sex hair. As stated last night Jim can cross my anything anytime he wants to. Watch 'Across the Universe' and you will love him...

Hottness Monster #7:Anderson Cooper. The Silver Fox. My Future Gay Husband. He makes watching the news a whole 'lotta fun. Um. Hi...those baby blues are swoon-worthy...

Hottness Monster #8:Robert-freaking-Pattinson. So, I know I said these hottness monsters were in no specific order...but if you have been paying attention to my blog at all you will know the love I have for Rob. It is borderline creepy stalker obsession...I mean seriously?! It should be criminal to look like he does...mirror mirror on the wall HE is the foxiest of them all...

There it is. It is official. Once more thanks to all my fabulous blog pals for your help and input! Alright, do you agree with the list? Did I leave someone out? Let me know!!

Oh, and in case you didn't notice I now have a button. It is super cute so grab one if you would like! Thanks to the Always Amazing Amy (boo-yah! check out that insane alliteration!)!

observations and a confession...

Can I just say how much I love all my blog friends. I especially love that you are all just as odd as I am. Thanks everyone who commented and shared their weirdness...all of you get to come to Disneyland with Rob and myself!

This is round #2 of my observations. For round #1 check this out. Let's begin shall we?
Observation #1:

so who knows what these are? prize to whoever gets it first! no one? really? hmm...okay they are 'jeggings'. go ahead and take a few minutes to think on that. 'jeggings'...as in JEAN leggings. as in people wear these as pants. as in the most heinous thing I have ever seen in my life. truth.

Observation #2:

I am sure all of you have witnessed the 'man bangs' that are running around on the heads of hottness as of late. By as of late, I mean for like the last two years. It has always annoyed me...but I figured it would go away in time...two years later the phenomenon is bigger than ever. Today alone, in a ten minute walk across campus...I counted 15 sets of man bangs. 15!?! I just want to run up to them and brush the hair out of their faces and scream, "Get your hair OUT of your eyes!" But if I did I would probably get arrested. That would not be awesome.

*I am not hating on Chace Crawford...this was just funny...please do not attack. thank you!*

Observation #3:

smoking is gross. like beyond gross. there is only one instance where it is not gross...witness

when he smokes it is hottness. other than that sicknast to the extreme. okay before you all tell me that it is a free country and you have a right to smoke...I realize that...BUT please do not be so lassez faire and inconsiderate about it. I do not want to inhale a lungful of toxic chemicals when I am walking down the street behind you...or when I am walking past you...or when you are standing 5 feet away from the door of the restaurant/store/class that I just walked out of. thankyouverymuch!

Observation #4:

This one is an observation about myself. I am so not stealth when it comes to checking out the fellas...I don't have a sneaky code to hip my gal pals to the fact that there is a hottness monster at 2 o'clock. Nope. Would you like to know what I do? I say...loudly..."OMG did you see him?! He is a stone cold fox." After I say this Jil runs and hides because she is mortified by my volume level and obvious staring. It. Is. Awesome.
The-not-really-a-confession-confession...actually it is more of a statement:

This statement is for the always adorable Connie (Seriously, have you all been to her blog? She is an absolute doll!) and I guess technically it is more of a statement for Connie's hubby-man Tony. Hi, Tony...so I have been thinking about this for a long time and have finally come to a decision.

This right here is the best 'My Little Pony'...

and this right here...is the best 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle'. Michelangelo lovers represent. That is all.

Okay now its YOUR turn. Comment with your own observations. Or comment and fight with me if you think mine are crazy...c'mon it will be a parrrr-tay! xoxo

am i odd? just a tad...

First, I have some blogging logistics to mention before I dig into my post. Holla! to all of my new 'Followers' or as I like to refer to you all 'people who win at life'! I am so jazzed that I have 20 whole followers (don't judge...20 is a big deal to me). Thanks for taking the time to read me! Love you all.

Okay...now the juicy stuff! The other day I was sitting and thinking about how odd I am. Like if I were to rate myself on an oddity scale...like 1 being totally normal and 10 being a member of the Gosselin family...how would I rate myself? I think I am mid-range strange (yep...poet and didn't even know it). So, I would say I am a 5-6 on my made up scale...with just a touch of neuroticism and OCD. After I scientifically calculated my scale (ya know...wrote my weird things down on a post-it) I decided it would make a good post.

Weird Thing #1:

Apparently I eat pizza like a freak. Or at least that is how everyone I know sees it. I see it as perfectly normal AND delicious. What do I do with said pizza? I take my fork scrape off all of the cheese and whatever toping happens to be there and then shove the pizza into my mouth (you know..very delicate and girly like). Yep...I just eat the crust and the sauce. It is A.Maz.Ing. No matter how many times my family & friends witness this they ALL feel the need to comment on it and criticize my pizza eating ways (except for Jil, she embraces it because it means she has 100% access to all of my toppings). Don't judge.

Weird Thing #2:

I have a tattoo. Yes, it's true. I had it done a few years ago and I would say I liked it for probably about a month or two...and then I got sick of looking at it. Since, it is on my foot and I wear flip-flops 95% of the time...I look at it quite a bit. I bet you are thinking, "Lots of people have tattoos...what is so weird about that?" The weird thing is, I refuse to get my tattooed colored in. It was always meant to be just a black outline however people comment all the time that I should color it. Nope. No way. Never going to happen. Why? Because if I do I know it will drive me mental when it doesn't color-coordinate with whatever I happen to be wearing.
Weird Thing #3:
The first thing I do in the morning is make my bed. If for some reason I am rushed and don't have the time to make it before I have to leave I think about it ALL day long. "Man...I wish I would have made my bed." "Ugh! My room is so unkempt right now...if only my bed were made!" "When I get home, no matter how late, I am going to have to make my bed." Yep...it is a little obsessive but it drives me mad! I absolutely cannot get back into an un-made bed. I will sometimes make it and then two seconds later turn the bed down again. Told you I was odd.

Weird Thing #4:

I do not shave my legs. Ever. Okay..hold onto your britches before you get all sicked out. I have zero leg hair. None. Zip. Zilch....you get the idea. For some strange reason the women in my family all lack leg hair...just another reason I love my mom...she made it possible for me to inherit this fabulous trait. Thanks mom, for my smooth as a babies behind gams! xoxo

Weird Thing #5:
I had a dream about Robert Pattinson. Alright, take a moment to remove your dirty minds from the gutter...no really...remove them...I will wait. Are we focused now? Good. Yes, he is a hottness monster. Yes, he has the sexiest hair that has ever lived (or un-lived..because hair is dead). Yes, he is sex on fire. Am I the only one who has had a Rob dream? Definitely not! Am I the only one who had a dream where I went to Disneyland with Rob and my friend Jil? Probably. Yep, out of ALL of the fantastic dirty dreams I could have had involving Rob...mine was a freakin' Three's Company re-enactment including the three of us walking arm and arm and going on 'Pirates of the Caribbean'. Most lamespice Rob dream ever? For sure!
Just a quick fyi...if I ever get to fulfill my dream and hit up Disneyland with Rob...I would karate chop Jil right outta there (sorry Jil...I love you and all...but it would be a fight to the death) and drag him off to go and make babies on the 'It's a Small World' ride (and THAT is saying something...because I don't like babies.)

I think five is enough for one day. This will become a regular feature...trust. I have quite the list and it grows every day.
Alright...fess up! Give me at least ONE weird thing you do...more than one and you win a prize! What is the prize? You can come with Rob and myself the next time we hit up Disneyland!

a short but sweet halloween recap...

I know, I know. Everyone is sick of reading posts about Halloween...but since I am a little behind the times I am still going to do a quick little picture post about mine...(and I say quick because between studying and working on a new super secret project...I have like two seconds to post this!)...

I am not a big Halloween person. I don't dress up or really go out other than going trick-or-treating with my niece for the last four years...
can anyone say, "cutest child ever"? why yes, she does have hot pink vampire teeth in her mouth that perfectly match her candy bucket. yep, I am already schooling her in the ways of color coordination...

for some reason she wanted to be a mummy. she went from dirt bike rider, to princess, to mummy. her mom made her costume for her...thankfully she did not cover her in fake blood. my niece is far too sweet to be a bloody creepy mummy.
a sweet little picture of her and my mom. my Bug has some crazy eyes going on in...she was sick of having to take pictures when she could have been collecting candy...
i am really hoping that this is not any indication of the type of boys she is going to be attracted to. the bad boys are definitely off limits for this child...actually any boy will be off limits to her because...

uh huh. her daddy is a cop. the poor girl will be on lock down until she hits like 45. I know this from personal experience. my big brother has threatened to arrest or kill every boy I have ever brought home. please love that since Jas had to work and was not able to go door to door with us like usual he did the next best thing and followed us around in his patrol car.

this picture was a 'must post' because my mother NEVER cooperates in photos. ever. so since she is actually looking at the camera AND smiling it is completely blog-worthy. love you mama! also, note the mothers fabulous eye wear. yep...they are Fendi...work it mom!

the night wrapped up with some yummy Chinese food and a quick bath. she insists on drying her own hair now...she spends the majority of the time drying everything BUT her hair with the dryer...silly Bug!

See! I promised...short and sweet! Hope everyone had a good Halloween...I am off to eat some of Bug's candy that I thieved. You could say that I am the best Aunt ever...go ahead...say it.
