Things I'm Liking Right Now...

After my terrible day yesterday, I woke up today determined to have a better day. And part of that I decided to write about a few of the things i'm into right now. So last night after my post I was flipping through the channels looking for something to watch and happened upon a documentary on Hippos!! Hippos are my favorite animal so this little show completely cheered me up last night. I learned about how a pack of hippos has one dominant male who gets to mate with ALL the females and I learned about how hippos communicate with each other. Did you know that when a hippo yawns, he actually showing off how big his teeth are to show his power?? Very interesting. I have been watching a lot of shows on the Animal Planet channel so big props to them for cheering me up with hippo stories!


Something else i've been meaning to share with you and haven't yet is my favorite new nail polish I found that I absolutely LOVE. Its the Sally Hanson Diamond series in color "I Do". I used to use a nail polish that when you put it on and it looked like a french manicure but it was only two coats of a single color. Well they got rid of it and now i've found something just as good and chip proof! Its amazing. I would definitely recommend you check it out if you are someone like me who hates spending time on nails and stuff. I love it!

I'm also happy to announce that I now get the Big 10 network as part of the Charter deal! I was worried I wouldn't get this because I'm technically not 'paying' for my cable but low and behold, last night I checked and much to my surprise and delight, there it was on channel 73!! Now I can watch the game on Saturday while i'm stuck at home. Very Cool!


A finally, I wanted to give a shout out to mycokerewards.com for continuing to provide me with great rewards for collecting coke points! Recently I ordered two snapfish photo books, a $24.99 value, for free. I just used my first one this week so i'll be anxious to see how it turns out. I used it for a birthday gift! I have also been spending my points on snapfish photo prints for free so i've been able to order a bunch of pictures that i've had sitting there, all for free. People make fun of me for saving these but they really pay off!!

Oh, I have got a nail polish for you that looks like you have a french manicure! OPI Bubble Bath AND Essie Minimalistic. Both are really sheer pink that look kind of like a french after 2 coats. I love them!
