Once Upon a Friday Night

... a sweaty chick threw some clothes on and pulled her frizzed out hair into the ever-famous "blogger bun," ate Thai food for dinner and frozen yogurt for dessert, and lived happily ever after.

And then she spent the rest of the weekend recuperating from difficult workouts, shopping for Jillian Michaels' Ripped in 30 meal plan, and recovering from a week of fussy children. Is it sad that I look forward to "getting dressed" even for the quickest errands?

For you busy moms, do you enjoy getting a little bit dolled up just to grab take-out or go to the store? I'm curious to know if I'm one of the rare ones who looks forward to these little opportunities to put on something other than yoga pants and a sports bra!

This is my version:

And the last (but certainly not least important) order of business for Sunday is that sweet, sweet Emily of Emilina Sassperina gave me the Versatile Blogger Award! If I award this to you, I'm sorry, but I can't grab the award button from Emily's blog. Maybe you'll have better luck?

If awarded the Versatile Blogger Award, you should link back to the person who gave it to you, write seven facts about yourself, and award seven other lovely bloggers!

Here we go!

1. Becoming a mother is quite literally the BEST thing that's ever happened to me.

2. I follow all of the American Idol 2011 contestants on Twitter.

3. I may or may not (but probably do) dabble in a bit of singing, myself.

4. I am NOT a morning person and have no clue how I manage to smile for my blog photos before work.

5. I'm addicted to sleep.

6. I honestly had no idea people that I was funny, until about two weeks ago.

7. My biggest goal in life is to raise happy, healthy, engaging, loving children, who grow up with a thirst for knowledge, reciprocal relationships, and will let me move in when I can no longer wipe my own behind.

I pass this blog award to:

Katy - Think Pretty Thoughts

Rochelle - Rochelle Approved

Vanessa - My Heart Blogged

Katie - Fashion's Maven

Kimmie - Blue Paper Lanterns

Kori - Blonde Episodes

Heather: Blonde... Undercover Blonde

Have a wonderful remainder of the weekend!
