Four Day Weeks and the Globes

I wish that we had four day weeks all the time.  It really would add to the well being of our society.  One, you have more time to run errands and would not have employees extending their lunch breaks for manis and pedis.  Two, I believe it would make us healthier because Americans could use this extra time off to spend some time being active.  In the words of my role model Elle Woods, "Exercise gives you endorphins. Endorphins make you happy. Happy people just don't shoot their husbands, they just don't."  Those are just a few reasons why Mr. Obama should do something about legalizing four day work weeks.

I am working on a new hobby - cooking.  Well it is not actually a hobby yet because I really don't enjoy doing it.  But, I decided to pull out my inner Betty Crocker and make a great recipe from Kraft Foods website last week for myself and my boo.  If you are like me and have trouble finding ideas, this website is great because they have minimal ingredients, easy instructions and are really delicious.

Now...a real hobby.  Fashion.  As you know, the Golden Globes happened this past Sunday and I was very impressed with the fashion choices.  I also believe that I even appreciated them more because I was actually on the road back to Knoxville during the red carpet.  Gasp, I know.  I clutched to my iPhone and kept refreshing the blogs so that I was up to date on the arrivals and what they stars were wearing.

My favorites included Emily Blunt.  This gorgeous pink Dolce and Gabbana with the ruffles - so chic.  And her arm candy John Krasinski is not bad either.

I also loved Sandra Bullock's Bottega Venata dress, but not the hair.  I was lucky enough to see her win her Best Actress award for the Blind Side where I immediately screamed "OMG BRIARCREST!"  So, I def feel I have a connection to Sandra and her dress because she won the award.  Refer to my earlier posts on The Blind Side if you are confused.

I also loved Penelope Cruz, in a black Armani.  I also love how she carries her own umbrella, so not a diva.

And though this was different, I really loved Diane Kruger's Christian Lacroix number.

Breaking up is hard to do... Kiffin Breaks my heart while JT puts it back together

Well, as most of you Vol fans know... Lane Kiffin is gone.  I won't go into detail because one this is not an ESPN blog and two you probably already have all the deets; but this picture is my favorite of all the craziness that has surrounded him leaving. 

I hope that he gets out of Tennessee alive, there are some crazy Vol fans and rednecks around here, I know that I would be scared.

In celeb break-ups, I have never been more happy to report that my man J. Timberlake has FINALLY gotten rid of Jessica Biel.  Hello, what has she been in since 7th Heaven?  Now... who should JT date next?  Well me of course, but that will probably not work out because he lives in California and I have a boo already.  Oh well, a girl can dream and at least we have our hometown's in common - 901 What What!

This got me to thinking... Who should JT date now?  I believe the answer is obvi : Taylor Swift.  Since she spilt with Taylor Lautner (teardrops, thought that was the cutest relationship ev), she needs someone who is bigger and better.  This is where JT comes in.  They can colloborate, then get married, and then have a house full of curly haired children.  What a day that would be.  Hopefully I would get to nanny for a summer when they are touring around the world together.

On a more serious note... I heard that Hound Dogs in Knoxville is donating all of your unwanted Lane Kiffin shirts to earthquake victims in Haiti.  So, get over there and donate them, along with other things that you don't need.  Giving back is oh so hip.

OMGlee

Last night I was relaxing and reading my new People magazine when I heard the familiar "ping" on my cell phone that signals text messages.  I saw that it was from my sister, and when I opened it I almost fainted.  The simple line read:
"For Glee they are having open auditions!!"

My heart started pounding, my eyes swelling with tears of joy.  Could it be true?  Could my favorite TV show be looking for new talent?  As soon as my sister told me she saw it on E! News I knew it was real.  I quickly googled "Glee Open Casting" and found that in fact, they will be looking for THREE new characters.  I fit the age range, and can still pull off the high school look.  So, I decided within these two and a half whirlwind minutes that I, Mollie, will be sending in a tape.  This is where my loyal readers come in - I need some tips about what to do in the audition video to stand out...  so hit me up via text, gmail, or leave some comments below.  I do have some ideas up my sleeve, but need your input as well.

And of course, once I am cast, I will bring all of you out to LA and we will have a fabulous party.  Can't.Freaking.Wait.

Here is the cast...

Plus my fave...Mr. S...and all they need is:

ME!!!!!!

Florida, Anyone?

Raise your hand if you are sick of this cold weather.  Both of mine are up now (I know, it's amazing I can do that and type at the same time).  I am wishing that I was here right now:

If you want to try to get a last minute trip together, let me know.  I am sure they are having some "off-season" deals right now.

A new discovery I have found: Redbox.  Ok, well I know these have been around forever, but DVD's for a buck, better than many things at your local Dollar Tree.  And someone told me that you can go online and find coupons to get them for free - wow, that really makes me excited.  Redbox has also helped me see past the fact that I have not had cable for about 3 1/2 months now.  And believe me, I thought I would have freaked out at some point, but I actually can, gulp, live without cable.  I really do miss Bravo and Style, but I can read all about celebs online, so I really don't need E!  And, I get the basic networks, so I can still see Liz Lemon, Michael Scott and Mr. Schuester each week.  Plus, I save more money so I can go on more fabulous vacays!

So it's 2010...

So, it's 2010.  When did this get here?  I feel like we should all be in flying cars and living like the Jetsons.  But I am very thankful for many of the techonlogical advances we do have now, the number one being my iPhone. 

Well, back to 2010.  I was at the gym the other day and it was noticeably more crowded.  One thought:  new year's resolutions.  Did you make any?  I really did not write mine down per say, but the main one is to be more fabulous and to always know that I am never overdressed for any occasion.  My motto:  It's better to be overdressed than underdressed.  Then, everyone will know how fabulous and cultured you are!

Last night I was watching The Biggest Loser - what a show.  These people are HUGE, but it's great because I think that the show is truly changing lives.  I just can't figure out who I would want as my trainer though... Bob is great but I think that I would want Jillian because she would scare me into working out to the max.  Either way, they both rock.  The only downside about this show is that it takes forever to weigh in... I really just enjoy the first hour watching them sweat and cry while I sit on my couch eating M&Ms and ice cream.

I have recently discovered a new caffienated beverage that I love... Diet Dr. Pepper.  My lovely roomie got me hooked, and now I buy them more than DC.  Don't worry, DC will always hold a special place in my heart, but the sweetness in DDP makes you think that you are (almost) drinking the real thing.

On the celeb front... I am wondering where Tiger Woods is... is anyone else?  If you confirm is whereabouts let me know ASAP so I can tweet the deets.  Also, saw that the Twilight:Eclipse script has been leaked.  Which I really don't get what the big deal is because one, there is already a book and two, the main reason I go is to look at both Team Edward... so dreamy and Team Jacob...so hunky.

Some exciting news in blog world:  I am actually writing for a local Knoxville blog.  The details have not been published yet, but once it is up, I will share it with you all to see.
