Hair or Bare...

Here is a question I have asked a couple of my girlfriends and none of us seem to know the answer. I can remember, in the mid-late 90's, when a girl shaved below the waist she was considered a dirrrty girl. :) Now, it seems if you don't shave below the waist, your a dirty girl. :( When did shaving and waxing become a staple in the personal hygiene department? I know that keeping your bikini line trimmed has always been fashionable...no one wants to see stray hairs peaking out from the sides of your panties or swimsuit. But, when did absolutely bald make or break your sex life? Maybe it's because porn has become more mainstream, maybe it was the popularity of the thong, MAYBE it was that friggin' sex tape Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee made...I have no idea. What I do know, I might have to start taking yoga just so I will be able to keep contorting myself so I won't be a dirty girl. :( Until next time... Mandy

The Last Seven Months in Photos...

and a few words. It seems as though after 35 years on this planet, my life is unrecognizable. I think it's a good thing, only time will tell... In September I started dating a boy, as you will see in the photos to come.

OCTOBER 2010
In October, everything got CRAZY busy. It started with my friend, Latischia's wedding.
Latischia and me before the rehearsal dinner.I was the maid of honor. (This is us before the ceremony.)Okay, this is Doug. This is the guy I started dating in Sept.Latischia and Kelly's first dance.This is us doing the not yet traditional bride/maid of honor dance.We were dancing to Redneck GirlUmm, because no celebration is complete without me taking photos with boobies.This was Halloween. Doug's friend had a party at his house. I dressed up as Doug.This was at the end of the evening. I had the most comfortable costume and I won Most Original. Sadly, it took about a week to finally scrub all the tattoos off of me.


NOVEMBER 2010

November was one of the busiest months of my life. I went to three different concerts...Suicidal Tendencies, Bad Religion and Reverend Horton Heat. I also went on vacation to Breckenridge, CO.


This is Rita and me.

My only goal was to make a snow angel. Mission accomplished. (Please notice the jazz hands that my angel has.!)Because, no matter what, I'm a Texas girl! GUNS UP!This is my friend Mikael. We had not seen each other in about 10 years. He lives near Denver and came up the mountain to see me.Once we realized that it was snowing outside, we ran onto the balcony...You would have thought we were 7 years old. I'll have to find the video and post it.This is Rita and me swimming in the snow! Heated pool + snowflakes falling = AWESOME!Umm, because why wouldn't I stay at a place called Beaver Run?Me saying bye to Colorado. When I got back to Houston, I called my mom and said, "That's it, I'm selling everything I own and I'm moving to CO! Sadly, everything I own will only get me as far as Katy."This was at the Reverend Horton Heat show. I really liked his hair!DECEMBER 2010


December brought lots of holiday parties, time with my family, and a new haircut.


Here's Doug and me at his friends' Christmas Party.

Chocolate covered cherry jello shots. I look like a drunk, crazy porn star in this photo, but it makes me laugh!This is my Paw Paw and me at our family Christmas gathering. I heart my Paw Paw!Here we are on New Year's Eve. I decided since I looked like a full blown lesbian on Halloween I was going to dress up a bit for New Year. I adore my burgundy stripper wig!!!JANUARY 2011

January is when the changes started happening...Change #1, I lost my job. Thank you recession!


This is mom and me. We're total dorks.

Because I haven't posted any photos of Rogen in a long time...Here he is in his sock monkey bed.FEBRUARY 2011

I actually don't have any photos from February. I will tell you I started my new job in February, found a new apartment (which I will be moving into in April) and broke up with my boyfriend.


MARCH 2011

In March I turned 35, survived Spring Break working in a resort type atmosphere geared towards families, and have actually been able to hang out with my friends a little bit!

So, there you have it. My life. Sorry for not posting anything for so long. I promise I will be better. Until next time... Mandy
