I have been seeing promos for TLC's "My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding" and I am TOTALLY intrigued. Knowing nothing about gypsies, I was shocked to see what kinds of weddings they have.  Guess I have some kind of 18th Century idea of Gypsies still in my head.  We don't really have anything like gypsies here in the US.  I think Gypsies would be insulted if we equated them with Carneys... and maybe vice

This video is HILARIOUS!  It's even funnier to me, because these are my friends and their baby.  Justa watch, the title of this post says it all. I want to know how they figured out that this would calm their son. I love it everyday!!!

Seriously, where did it go? There was soooo much that I was going to do over the Christmas/NewYear's holiday, but I didn't get 95% of done. Why? Not because I was hungover or partying it up or sleeping in until noon. Nope.  It is because of two things: 1) Brian and I found a house to rent and signed the lease the day after Christmas. YAY!  A fucking house! Not an apartment, not a townhome,

ARE YOU FUCKING JOKING WITH ME?!  Who would EVER compete for that?  Apparently there were 12 shallow, idiotic women who did, because there is a real show.  OH!  And get this: the winner reveals her "new" self to her

I was raised in the South.  I was raised going to church every Sunday.  I even went to church camp and was a part of my youth group.  I was a good Texas girl.  But to be honest, I always questioned Christianity and the whole belief in one God.  Or any gods.  Especially as I educated myself about all religions. I could go on and on about the hypocrisy that I see is rampant in organized religion.

I know I am lucky to have a job right now, but I don't know how much longer I can take this.  Being a barista at Starbucks is sounding really great right now. Wah, wah, wah! Poor me! No need to comment on how lucky I am to have a job, I know this.  I just need to vent a little.

Sorry for hiatus, I Love It Everyday readers!  All like 5 of y'all (you're loyal, I appreciate it, I love you everyday).  I won't bore you with the work and personal drama.  None of it too major, but I will say the work situation does have me a bit depressed, but I am doing something about it.  Like getting back into my blogging. YAY! :) Last night I had drinks with a friend of mine who I hadn't

But I am pretty sure I have W.S.A.D.: Work Sucks Ass Disorder.  I'll be back to my old self soon and will be back posting about online dating and how I never thought a male stripper could be inappropriate until this past weekend.  Until then, enjoy the following: toothpastefordinner.com

Tip #2.0 - Put your best online face forward (This tip will be in several parts, but all go under the same idea.) We know that there are quite a few dating sites out there.  And you don't have to choose just one.  But if you are looking for a real relationship, not just a one night affair, then go with one or two of the most reputable sites.  Might as well have a couple of them working for you.

Okay, so I going to start a series of posts giving tips on how to date online.  Several of the bloggers I read faithfully and friends of mine offline, are venturing into the world of online dating.  Now, I am by no means an expert on the subject, but I used online dating a lot to date, with a modicum of success.  That is how I met Brian.  Of course I also met a guy who broke my heart online, but

Why is it when ever I go to New York City, I feel like I look like a country mouse in the big city?  I am not un-stylish.  I live in Los Angeles, which is a big city.  I don't wear Ed Hardy or Affliction crap (I have an aversion to clothing that makes their biggest statement with their label/logo).  I like the color black. I had a lot of fun on my trip, but my last couple of days in the city,

I did some damage while shopping the streets of SoHo in New York City.  Brian and I had problems packing everything into the same suitcases we brought.  But somehow we did.  My piece de resistance was my brand new Barbara Bui handbag.  I had been eye-ing handbags the entire trip.  Brian knew I was going to buy one.  I knew I was going to buy one.  I had walked away from several, but this beauty

I took a vacation.  I didn't blog.  I barely checked facebook or email.  It was great.  It is now over.  I am sad. I don't wanna go back to work. I wanna be on permanent vacation. That Mega Million Jackpot win needs to come sooner than later this year. :) Hope everyone had a great week.  I have so many people's blogs to catch up on.  I promise I will start. Tomorrow!

The merger is done.  I am at the new company.  And the TPS Reports have begun. *BIG SIGH* I am leaving for a week vacation on Friday.  I CANNOT FUCKING WAIT!  Hopefully I come back refreshed and with a new attitude. Could be worse.  I could be named Michael Bolton.

The time of the year when pre & totally pubescent bitches tempt us with their sweet, sugar filled, chocolate covered pieces of guilt.  At our homes, at our supermarkets, at our offices (is no place sacred?!).  They assault us with their smiles, their polyester uniforms, and their promise of helping other girls become well-adjusted grown women (c'mon!!) which wear down our defenses, making us

At 3:45 PM today, I decided to indulge in my favorite beverage: Dr. Pepper. Ahhhhh... the Dr.  My drink of choice growing up in Texas.  What once was a daily beverage is now a once in a while treat (usually used to treat the occasional hangover). Now the coke machine in my building does not provide Dublin Dr. Peppers (which are the best), the HFCS filled one satified me fully. Now I have to

After having some yummy sushi for dinner last night, Brian and I took a little bargain shopping adventure at Big Lots.  Oh what fun!  My sake fueled sense of humor got the best of me and I decided to take some cameraphone photos of the great finds.  Enjoy! What valentine wouldn't love some discount Little Debbie snack cakes?  I know I am secretly hoping that is what Brian will give me.

Last week I came down with a wicked cold.  And I didn't blog.  What am I supposed to say?  "I should be sleeping but I thought I would tell the blogosphere that my sinuses feel like they are in a cheese grater, i can't stop sneezing and I look like death...."  Don't think y'all really want to hear about all of that. But I had to get better quickly because: A) I had to get back to work (yeah,

I hope everyone pops some bubbly, laughs with some friends, has a New Year's kiss, gets home safely, sleeps their drunkeness off and rids them selves of their hangovers with greasy food and mimosas! Got a sneaking suspicion that I am gonna love 2010 everyday...Hope you do too! :)

It's Tuesday morning. I don't have to work today. I am watching "Toddlers & Tiaras" on TLC. This show is a guilty pleasure.  While I am loving it today, I don't love it everyday, because I can feel brain cells forever slipping away with each episode.  But I can't stop watching!!! Obviously I did not grow up doing pageants (which is amazing since I grew up in Texas).  I had no idea how

I am in bad need of a detox.  My liver hurts from all the alcohol I drank back in Texas (in order to deal with my family, to calm my nerves after driving in a snow storm which made a 20 minute drive 2 hours long, and it was just plain fun), my digestive system is yelling at me from all of the red meat and fried food I ate.  The nightmares/memories of all I ate and drank haunt me. AND IT IS NOT

I love this Christmas song.  It reminds me of being little and watching the Sesame Street Christmas Special (from the early 1980's mind you) where Bert and Ernie ice skate to this song. I loved ice skating.  At 4 years old I was certain that I would grow up to be the next Katerina Witt (a non-communist version) and win Olympic Gold medals.  Alas, I grew up a bit too much, and became to tall for

What song is it?  It is "All I Want For Christmas Is You" by Mariah Carey.  BUT I much prefer the version from the film "Love Actually," which I have to watch every year the weekend right after Thanksgiving.  I love that film! I can "sing" this somg over and over again and not get tired.  And this version is just too cute. I LOVE IT EVERY CHRISTMAS DAY!!

Yeppers, today is my birthday.  I am slightly hungover, but it was totally worth it.  Brian just picked me up a breakfast burrito from Aroma Cafe (mmmmm... burrito), and I am sitting in bed watching football.  He also gave me a birthday present that was so thoughtful it made me cry.  I am so lucky to have such a wonderful man in my life. Such a great day already! I love birthdays.  It is the

I love December.  First, it is my birthday; second, is all of the holidays decorations; fifth and lastly, going back to Texas to see my family for Christmas. Brian and I bought a Christmas tree last weekend and I finally got is decorated last night.  It is Brian first Christmas tree!  He is jewish (non-practicing), and even though all of his girlfriends have been shiksas, he has never had a tree

Big Red wishes everyone a happy and fun Thanksgiving, filled with good food, friends, family and lots of laughs. I will be bringing my famous buttermilk pie to my best friend's Thanksgiving.  In fact, it is baking right now.  For some reason I couldn't sleep in this morning, so I decided to get up and bake early.  Below is what the pie will look like.  That is the one I made for Easter.

Not only do I love Lady Gaga everyday, but I am obsessed with her new single, "Bad Romance." Plus her videos and style are amazing. Does anyone else love Lady Gaga everyday like I do?  God I hope so.

We all know the good boob jobs versus the bad boob jobs.  Good looks like real boobs; bad looks like  two magic eight balls sitting underneath your skin (the answer is always "Outlook not so good").  Sad that the world is filled with more bad ones than good ones.  Especially in L.A.  Sheesh! nataliedee.com

I don't know if it was the dust that was kicked up while packing, OR a panic attack over the idea that I am giving up my single-dom and my freedom (in a sense) by moving in with Brian, OR the excitement over how happy I am to be moving in with him, OR how much has to be moved in the next five days, OR the left over side effects of this Thursday's flu shot... But for second time this weekend I

Is anybody else creeped out by the Luvs commercial with all of the cartoon hippie babies at some kind of Woodstock-esque hippie baby convention? I hate this commercial and I have only seen it a couple of times.  Something about cartoon babies driving a psychedelic VW van, smoking weed and dancing around in their cartoon diapers... Well, maybe they aren't smoking weed, but the whole notion is

Saw these in an adorable shop in the Lincoln Square neighborhood on my girls weekend visit to Chicago.  I LOVE THEM EVERYDAY!       I got Brian this one.  We each say that the other is a "Good Egg" so it fits. :) You can buy them from Jane Jenni.

I have decided. I am changing the name of the blog. It will no longer be "To Live and Date in L.A." since I am now only living (and living in sin) in L.A. So I choose to go with my catch phrase: "I Love It Everyday!" Why? Because I do Love It Everyday! The change will start, and I just have to figure out how to change the URL without losing any of my fabulous loyal followers. I know I know
