Friday Letters
Dear Weather,
Thank you for being so nice to me and not snowing at all yet. Please continue this pattern.
P.S. Global Warming ya'll....that crazy Al Gore may have been right....
Sincerely,
Vanessa
Dear people,
Want to know why women get so upset about their birthdays? Because we're like Christmas trees....no one wants us after the 25th.
From,
Vanessa
Dear guy staring at me in the mall,
Am I so pretty you want to marry me or am I so pretty you want to wear my flesh like a suit?
Just wondering,
Vanessa
Dear World,
The thing that really really scares me...is that there are actually Taco Bells open 24 hours.
Sincerely,
Vanessa
Dear 2012,
Please be gentle.
Love,
Vanessa
Dear Readers,
It's been a wonderful year with you!! Have a very Happy New Year!!!

Merry Christmas
"And there were in that same country shepherds abiding in a field keeping watch over their flock by night.
And lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them, and they were sore afraid.
And the angel said unto them, fear not: for behold I bring you good tidings of great joy which shall be to all people.
For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
And this shall be a sign unto you; ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of heavenly host praising God and saying,
Glory to God in the highest, and on Earth peace, good will toward men."
Luke 2: 8-14
Merry Christmas
(you have the song in your head now don't you....heh heh heh)

Friday Letters
Dear Santa,
Out of all of your reindeer, the one that sounds the most like a street name for crystal meth is all of them.
Sincerely,
Vanessa
Dear Jon Hamm,
It makes all the difference that your name is spelled "Jon Hamm" instead of "John Ham".
Congratulations on your face.
Love,
Vanessa
Dear Taylor Swift and The Civil Wars,
This song is perfect in every way. And the fact that it's for the Hunger Games.....stop...I'm gonna cry just thinking about it.
Always and Forever,
Vanessa
Dear Pandora,
I almost walked into a wall while aggressively trying to "thumbs up" Wham's "Last Christmas" on your Christmas station. Honestly....I'd be fine dying that way though.
From,
Vanessa
Dear World,
I watched a mom on Toddlers and Tiaras give her 13 month old Coca- Cola. Heaven help us all.
Regards,
Vanessa
Dear Readers,
Have I told you lately that I love you? Because I do. I hope you have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy Hanukkah or a Happy Holiday!!! Be safe!

as of late
No playlist today. Everyone is listening to Christmas music anyway.
So I thought I would share some of my favorite videos as of late.
#1 $h!% Girls Say
Hilarious
[フレーム]
#2 Tyler Hilton and Elizabeth Huett - Jenny Turn Around
Even though it's a live performance....I'm in LOVE with this song. And I'm obsessed with Elizabeth Huett. And we already know how I feel about Tyler ( refer to posts...1 2 3 and 4)
[フレーム]
#3 Aqua - Barbie Girl
Classic
[フレーム]
#4 I'm dedicating this to my best friend Jenny's husband NIC
Nic recently threw down the gauntlet by claiming that I never mention him on my blog. Which is not true. Exhibit A. BUT ANYWAY he said that "mentioning" him is NOT the same as dedicating a whole post to him. So I dedicate number 4 to Nic because he shared this video and I think it's hilarious. I've watched it a thousand times and when it came on the TV on Sunday while I was with my friends I was all "UMM GUYS SHHHHH AND WATCH THIS BECAUSE MY FRIEND JENNY'S HUSBAND NIC SHOWED THIS TO ME AND I LAUGHED BECAUSE IT'S SO FUNNY" and then they were all quiet and we watched it and they all thought it was funny too! PLUS the Kansas City Chiefs beat the Packers on Sunday! I love the Packers but my heart belongs to Matt Cassel so in turn....it belongs to the Chiefs (I mention this because NIC is a fan of the Chiefs. ARE YOU READING THIS NIC????)
[フレーム]
#5 Wal Mart muddy kid.....
he's so adorable I want to weep
[フレーム]
#6 N'Sync Merry Christmas Happy Holidays
Best music video EVER
[フレーム]
#7 Michael Buble "Duets" Album on Saturday Night Live
We were all laughing so hard we were crying

Untitled #25 by vanessanelson featuring 14k jewelry
I had a GREAT weekend! Lot's of hustle and bustle at work which is fun. People are in a good mood for the most part...which in retail is always appreciated.
I got to have a blast at my "family" Christmas party which is really just a bunch of my best friends and I eating good food and laughing a lot. We had a white elephant and played games. I love spending time with my besties!
Getting ready for the week! Lot's to do still!
How was your weekend?

Roofies.

my weekend by vanessanelson featuring a bow skirt
I had a nice weekend....except for the shift at work that started at 6:45 am yeah. How is that even a legal time for people to be up??
Oh well...at least I got to see the lunar eclipse. Did anyone see the show "Neverland" on SyFy? Wasn't it so good? Didn't it make you super obsessed with Peter Pan all week? (anyone...?).
We also put up our Christmas tree and I started abusing NyQuil again.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas....
