Friday and that time I used a t shirt as a weapon.

The other night Stephen and I saw the horror movie The Pact.
I love me a good scary film.
And although this one had some glitches in the story line..
it scared the crap out of me.

When we got home I was still reeling from fear..
I went into the living room to turn off the light and grab a pajama shirt from the clothes rack (aka our "dryer")
and when I walked out of the room Stephen was standing right there, in the dark..
and because he is so dang tall I didn't see his face.
I screamed with some choice words,
and swung that shirt like a mad woman(you know, because a t-shirt is a VERY dangerous weapon).

Then I cried.

Now, I'm pretty sure stephen fears for my ability to protect myself if I encounter danger..
like if given the choice between a knife and a shirt im gonna grab the shirt.
please.
I would obviously just curl up in the fetal position and close my eyes,
because if you close your eyes the bad man cant see you.
DUH.

so go see The Pact,
and say hi to these awesome ladies,
who probably took karate or something to fend off evil..
lame.

I would consider Christine a good friend of mine..
even though we have never met in real life..
yet...
It is only a matter of time because she happens to live in my hometown of Los Angeles.
She is stunning, with an equally attractive significant other,
and on top of being beautiful on the outside,
she is the sweetest thing on the inside,
with an incredible talent for capturing the beauty of life with photographer.
You will love her.


"I've always loved expressing myself - emotions, thoughts, ideas or even just what I could see - through art. As a little girl, I would sketch in the backseat of our green suburban while we drove across country; I always found that I was most inspired whilst looking out the window at the world passing by. And this fascination has continued, years later, in the form of photography. It fulfills me, entertains me, keeps me on my toes, and never ceases to amaze me at just how beautiful this world is when you simply stop to look."

Devon has been a long time blog friend of mine now,
her and her hot hubby are your carefree, laid back, SO-CAL surfers.
I am obsessing over how they just re-did their backyard
(have you ever heard of a vertical garden?? mind.blown)
and this starfish headband DIY..
It doesnt get much more southern california beach living than these two.
I love it.


"Hey there. I'm Devon. Have we met? If not, come on over and introduce yourself! My blog is called The Mermaid Chronicles. It's about my adventures in surfing and in life. Today I did a post about how we gave our small backyard a big makeover. Check it out!"

  1. HAHAHAHAHAHA! Can you please just tell stories all day long? That was hilarious! The scariest part of your story? Your drying rack. I shudder at the thought of not having an actual dryer.

  2. OMG, I just died laughing with your t shirt story...bwahahaha!!! That was awesome, yes please tell stories all day every day...Thanks!!! I hate when the hubs scares me when I don't know he is there (not on purpose) and then he always says (after I scream or jump or both) "who did you think was going to be there"...ummm, not you cause 2 seconds ago you were in another room...
    Happy Friday!!!

  3. I would react similarly. Or I'd turn around and run as fast as I could. Because I could so outrun an intruder.

    LOVE CHRISTINE.

  8. This although not funny but funny .. Made me laugh a little and sounded familiar. I think we all have screamed like a total girl when scared. I have a golf club beside my bed. A toy plastic golf club. Now who will that injure?

  11. you would cry. ridiculous.

  12. lol! I would be right there with you swinging the tshirt and screaming. I am absolutely ridiculous when I feel threatened and absolutely good good for nothing.

    Thanks for the laugh. I totally get it though!

  13. I'm sure a shirt could be a useful weapon at one point or another. Your stories are too funny!

  14. I totally can't watch scary movies unless someone I'm supervised during and for 24-hours after. Stephen should be very thankful you didn't attack him with a meat-cleaver, that's definitely what I would do. If you were more defensive when threatened he could be severely maimed...just sayin'. I'm sure if (I really hope this doesn't happen ever, P.S.) if you ever find yourself n a situation where your physical wellbeing is directly threatened, the attacker will probably be so taken aback/confused by the fact that you're just freakin' out and swinging a t-shirt that they'll likely leave you alone thinking you're Anthony Hopkins in Silence of the Lambs (my exception is psycho-thrillers, I LOVE those) crazy. Take heart!

  15. Moral of the story is ... I wonder why you 'love' scary movies so much? :D

    I 'know' Devon!! I too gaped in envy at her new backyard. Cheese whiz.

  16. I can't really handle scary movies. I watched Paranormal Activity & couldn't sleep properly for a few weeks! Yuck!
