Reading: The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood
Listening to: Michelle Branch's new album "Hopeless Romantic" on repeat. So happy that she's back!
Watching: First Dates, Married at First Sight, Married at First Sight: Second Chances, Grey's Anatomy, Blindspot, and WAS watching NY Rangers play-offs until they lost on Tuesday night :(
Purchasing: Alllll the concert tickets. Train, U2, P!nk, Incubus with Jimmy Eat World, the Cranberries, and Britney Spears (in Vegas). Still debating one with Gin Blossoms, Fuel, Marcy Playground, Dishwalla and Alien Ant Farm.
Loving: My new pins from Junk-o that Blue surprised me with!
Planning: May day dates! An "Eff It"/Mother's Day pampering day tomorrow with Mom , crossing some things off my spring bucket list, and seeing Young Frankenstein with a with Mel Brooks! So many things to look forward to! Also planning some travel for late summer/fall. Looks like Denver and Las Vegas are up first!
Reorganizing: My bedroom, because I finally got a desk! At work, we started listing things that we are selling, and my coworker was selling a perfect little computer desk for $25. I'm so excited. Crossing another one off of my 101 list! (More updates on that coming Monday!)
Planting: When I saw this on the list for this month, I was like "Ummm... I just killed another plant and have moved on to fake ones at home..." which is true. HOWEVER, a coworker wants to "warm our office space" so she gave us seeds and a special "plant grow" bulb, and someone else brought in pots so we now have a few growing!
Baking: beer bread from Tastefully Simple last weekend. You guys, it's seriously addictive! Add some cheese or dip or eat it plain- so good! (And not hoppy tasting at all.)
Remembering: TimeHop reminded me that on this day last year I was in Key West, FL. We had so much fun on that trip! I'm a fan of visiting new places, but this is one place that I'd love to revisit!
What's currently going on with you?
Michelle Branch is back?! I'm going to have to check that out. Also, what do you think of The Handmaid's Tale so far? I really want to read it so I can watch the show.
ReplyDeleteLots of travel and concerts coming up for you! It's always good to have things to look forward to.
ReplyDeleteI had heard Michelle Branch was back! I'll have to check out her new album, I loved her back in the day!

Gin Blossoms, Fuel
ReplyDeletei've seen gin blossoms and enjoyed it. fuel interests me, but i'd be wary. i'd stopped listening to them when brett scallions left. hadn't realized he'd returned. but i've not bought any of their music since natural selection. i've not heard any of their music with scallions back.
how's first dates? that looked like something i'd enjoyed, but i keep forgetting to record it.
That's awesome you're having a pampering day with your mom for Mother's Day. How fun!
ReplyDeleteI am ALSO buying all the concert tickets lately. haha I just got Linkin Park this week.
This post is seriously NOT helping my wanderlust, but there are no travels in the cards for me for a while. Damn you!
ReplyDeleteHow are you liking The Handmaid's Tale?
I haven't heard anything from Michelle Branch in ages either!! I am so excited for you with some of those concerts you have lined up!!
ReplyDeleteI was so keen to go to Vegas, and my husband had planned to surprise me for my birthday, but with all those travel changes he didn't get the tickets, because we thought we would have to go through this crazy process just to get a visa to visit *ugh*.
Anyway, I hope you have an amazing time at Britney, that one has been on my list for a while!
We could watch TV together! I'm loving most of those shows you mentioned. I'm so hooked on Marriage at First Sight and Second Chances.
ReplyDeleteI love Fuel & Gin Blossoms. I saw Fuel once before. I'm not sure who I am seeing in concert this Summer. We haven't decided yet.

Yes to all the concert tickets! I have so many that I am wanting to go to coming up! Michelle Branch is back?!
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, I too love the beer bread from Tastefully Simple! Yummy!
ReplyDeleteSecondly, I love all the concerts you are going to. I love going to concerts. Britney was entertaining but it wasn't as good as I was expecting from her. I still love her though & I'm really glad that I was able to see her. :)
Are you watching The Handmaid's Tale too? I was trying to hold off until I read the book, but couldn't wait. I'm curious to hear the differences. I really like the show. All of those concerts sound so awesome! Is that last group of bands on the same bill? Yay for Britney! I really want to see her one more time before she leaves Vegas.
ReplyDeleteI heard Michele Branch was back but I hadn't looked it up yet! THIS MAKES ME SO EXCITED! Reliving my high school years over and over.
ReplyDeleteWait wait wait....Michelle Branch is back??? Going to add her to my list right now!!!!! I love Blindspot! You are one of the only people I know who watches it too. People are missing out!!!
