Randomness

There are all these little bits and pieces I wanted to post a while ago, but I can’t make an entire valid post out of them, so I thought I would just amalgamate them into one blog post about general randomness:

Working Out

For those who are still wondering if all my hardcore working out paid off – yes. Yes it did. The first thing my Ma said to me when she came out of the arrival gates at JFK was “Meimei! You so skinny now!”

Epic. Win.

One Direction

Watching the Olympics closing ceremony with Ma and Husband, One Direction came on:

Husb:    Who are these freaks?

Ma:        What? You no know One Direction? They’re HUGE!

Husb:    Hmm…who?

Ma:        ONE DIRECTION?! Boy band?!? WHERE have you been?

My ma is awesome.

Otters

Okay people – what you’re about to read is highly disturbing. If you have recently eaten, I suggest that you look away.  For those who do not take my advice, I suggest you keep a trash can handy. Okay. Here goes.

I love otters. They’re fricking adorable fluffy little nuggets. Just when I thought I couldn’t possibly love them even more, I find out this fact about otters: otters hold hands when they sleep, making an ‘otter raft’ so that they will not be separated and drift away from each other when they sleep. Isn’t that the most adorable thing EVER? Look at this picture!!!

Okay – now you’re probably thinking what all the fuss is all about – why did I warn you about such redonkulous cuteness? Wait for it.

Husband and I recently upgraded to a king size bed. It’s fricking huge and I love it. However, the bed is so large that we tend to lose each other while we’re sleeping. So, Husband and I make our own version of an otter raft. Yes, we hold hands while we sleep so one person doesn’t drift away from each other.

Well. I feel that I’ve embarrassed myself suitably. Feel free to vomit now.
