<p>(Oasis playing on the stereo)<br />
K: &#8220;You know what I love? I love it when the overhead stereo plays Billy Idol songs after we&#8217;re closed. Because then I can DANCE!&#8221;</p>
<p>Me: &#8220;Yeah, it&#8217;s even better when it&#8217;s Beyonce, or something totally ridiculous.&#8221;</p>
<p>K: &#8220;Pretty much <i>anything</i> is better than that one song&#8230;&#8221;</p>
<p>Me: &#8220;Do-do-do-do- <i>do-do</i>&#8230;&#8221;</p>
<p>K &#038; Me : &#8220;Ooooh!&#8221;</p>
<p>(we groan in unison)</p>
<p>K: &#8220;You know what song I really hate, though? The one that&#8217;s all, &#8220;duh duh duh duh five hundred miles and duh duh duh five hundred more&#8230;&#8221;</p>
<p>Me: (mouth falls open)</p>
<p>K: &#8220;Like, half of it is in spanish or something, I just don&#8217;t get it.&#8221;</p>
<p>Me: &#8220;&#8230;&#8221;</p>
<p>K: &#8220;&#8230;what?&#8221;</p>
<p>Me: &#8220;A THOUSAND MILES? By The Proclaimers?!&#8221;</p>
<p>K: &#8220;Uh, yeah, whatever?&#8221;</p>
<p>Me: &#8220;<i>Have you even seeeeeen Benny &#038; Joon?</i>&#8221;</p>
<p>K: &#8220;Well if I haven&#8217;t heard of it, it probably sucks.&#8221;</p>
<p>Me: (unintelligable screeching)</p>
<p>(Another salesgirl walks up)</p>
<p>Me: &#8220;You know, the Thousand miles song? Do you like it?&#8221;</p>
<p>N: &#8220;By the Proclaimers? It&#8217;s my favourite! But&#8230; (looks around) I&#8217;m a crazy fangirl for Johnny Depp in Benny &#038; Joon.&#8221;</p>
<p>K: &#8220;What. The. Hell.&#8221;</p>
<p>Me: &#8220;So&#8230; you&#8217;re coming over this weekend and watching this movie with me. I&#8217;ve decided.&#8221;</p>

<i>Or</i> Things I Am Adoring This Week:</p>
<p><img src="http://lemonlove.forgedpixels.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/liptint.jpg"><br />
<i>CO Bigelow&#8217;s Mentha Lip Tint  $7.50</i></p>
<p><a href="http://www.bigelowchemists.com/product_info.php/products_id/4886" target="_blank">This lip tint comes in many light shades of red and pink and also has 2% peppermint!</a><br />
 For those of us who A) love peppermint, and B) have issues with metal mouth (I blame the retainer that the dentist has left in my mouth for 6 years now) this product is a lifesaver! I&#8217;ve never understood the point of using lip gloss before, but when I wear this I feel shiny and delicious and lovely. </p>
<p><img src="http://lemonlove.forgedpixels.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/ipod.jpg"><br />
<i>My iPod / music device.</i></p>
<p>I rediscover my iPod every time when the weather decides to be nice enough to walk outside. Whether I&#8217;m walking to the bus stop or simply enjoying the (chance) moments of spring sunshine, my iPod has been glued to my hip this week, even more so than usual!<br />
Suggested tunes for spring jamming:<br />
<b><a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Franz+Ferdinand" target="_blank">Tonight: Franz Ferdinand</b>. by Franz Ferdinand (at last.fm)</a><br />
My favourite song: &#8220;Bite Hard&#8221;<br />
<b><a href="http://www.last.fm/music/The+Ting+Tings" target="_blank">We Started Nothing.</b> by The Ting Tings (at last.fm)</a><br />
My favourite song: &#8220;That&#8217;s Not My Name / We Walk / Great DJ&#8221; (I can&#8217;t decide!)<br />
<b><a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Imogen+Heap" target="_blank">Any songs.</b> by Imogen Heap (at last.fm)</a> I can&#8217;t tell you what my favourite song is because I love all of them. Equally. Her music is wonderful and perfect for melancholy gray, or beautiful sunshine.</p>
<p><img src="http://lemonlove.forgedpixels.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/rosering.jpg" target="_blank"><br />
<i>Rose Ring. From $6-$20, depending on where you go</i><br />
<a href="http://www.etsy.com/search_results.php?search_query=rose+ring&#038;search_type=tag_title&#038;order=&#038;min=&#038;max=&#038;page=2" target="_blank">(search results on etsy)</a></p>
<p>I have been wanting to buy myself a plastic rose ring for a coon&#8217;s age* and every few months I revisit the search results page on etsy.com to see if one has been made that I <i>need</i>. Someday I&#8217;ll actually buy one, (You know&#8230; the ONE I have envisioned in my miiind!) but until then I&#8217;ll just think about all of the outfits I could wear it with, and how appropriate it is for life right now. Hopeful, but still tiny.</p>
<p><i>*A friend of mine taught me that phrase, and then explained that it meant &#8220;a really really really really long time&#8221;. She actually uses it in day to day conversation! Am attempting to integrate it into my vocabulary, stat!</i></p>
<p><img src="http://lemonlove.forgedpixels.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/oregonpin.jpg"><br />
<i>Heart in Oregon pin.  $3</i></p>
<p><a href="http://www.heartinoregon.com/" target="_blank">Guess where I live. Guess! GUESS.</a><br />
I love this ad-campaign, and fully endorse it. I&#8217;m not sure if the company has started making hearts for other states yet, but I really thing this is a sweet way to show your patriotism/that you care about our local geography. And also that you embrace good design. (Which really, should be on everyone&#8217;s list.)<br />
Anyway, I bought one of these pins a few weeks ago, and have been proudly wearing it on my jacket ever since!</p>

<p><a href="http://community.livejournal.com/ru_glamour/2891914.html?style=mine#cutid1" target="_blank">I am loving this photo shoot:<br />
&#8220;The Right Stuff&#8221; photographed by Arthur Elgort.</a><br />
How awesome are these pictures? Pairing high fashion with astronauts needs to happen more often, I think.</p>
<p><img src="http://lemonlove.forgedpixels.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/lotion.jpg"><br />
<i>Lubriderm SPF 15 Daily UV protection lotion $10</i></p>
<p>I know, I know, I could talk about the change in the weather until your eyes bleed, but I tend to forget while my world is bathed in gloomy gray that there&#8217;s this Thing. Called <i>The Sun</i>. That you should be aware of. It began to peek out this month and I ran outside for a few minutes to play frisbee with my family (Why yes, we <i>are</i> so Leave It To Beaver!) and this happened:<br />
</center><br />
<b>Me:</b> &#8220;Ahhhhhh! Sunshine!&#8221;<br />
<b>My body:</b> &#8220;Let&#8217;s work up a sweat, while running around with a frisbee!&#8221;<br />
<b>Me:</b> &#8220;Okay!&#8221;<br />
<b>My skin:</b> &#8220;Yaknow, we don&#8217;t think this is a good idea&#8230;&#8221;<br />
<b>My body:</b> &#8220;<i>Man</i>, it really is freaking hot out here, in the sunshine, having a blast. Let&#8217;s take off this jacket, sweatshirt and long-sleeved shirt!&#8221;<br />
<b>Me:</b> &#8220;Okay!&#8221;<br />
<b>My skin:</b> &#8220;We&#8217;re not sure&#8230; we&#8217;ve been living in the caves for these past five years and&#8230;&#8221;<br />
<b>Me:</b> &#8220;Nah, don&#8217;t be a wuss, it feels nice!&#8221;<br />
<b>My skin:</b> &#8220;Y-yeah! We guess you&#8217;re right! We LIKE the sun! We LOVE the&#8211;AUGGGHGGHHH!&#8221;<br />
<b>Me:</b> &#8220;Dude, wtf?&#8221;<br />
<b>My skin:</b> &#8220;IT BURRRNS USSSSSSS&#8221;<br />
<b>Me:</b> &#8220;Five. Freaking. Minutes.&#8221;<br />
<b>My skin:</b> &#8220;WEEEE ARE SENNNNSITIVE. SHUT UP.&#8221;</p>
<p><center><br />
So here I go, piling on my trusty daily SPF. I guess I&#8217;m lucky enough that I can slather on a light lotion every morning and not suffer heinous consequences of the acne variety, but I&#8217;d really suggest that everyone try it. My skin is much closer to its happier, cursing-under-its-breath-self, (&#8220;It does not care if we be burned. It does not care if we should be covered in itchy bumpses!) and I am finally preserving my lily-white skin so that when I am on a busy street and there&#8217;s a disaster and George Clooney yells, &#8220;QUICK! IS ANYONE PALER THAN THIS PIECE OF PRINTER PAPER?!&#8221; I&#8217;ll be able to promptly scoot myself to the forefront and probably save a kitten&#8217;s life or something.</p>
<p><img src="http://lemonlove.forgedpixels.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/bunnies.jpg"><br />
<i>Chocolate Bunnies.</i></p>
<p>Because it&#8217;s that time of year, I find myself with access to what I would like to call &#8220;my own personal brand of kryptonite&#8221;.<br />
I know what you&#8217;re thinking. You&#8217;re thinking, &#8220;This Brittney, she is so refined. She obviously is referring to the <a href="http://www.godiva.com/catalog/collections.aspx?id=23" target="_blank">Godiva Easter Eggs</a> or even the delicious <a href="http://www.sugarstand.com/wt/wt0002-ferro-rocher-bunny.htm" target="_blank">Ferro Rocher Easter bunny candies</a>.&#8221;</p>
<p>But no.</p>
<p>I am, of course, referring to&#8230;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.godiva.com/catalog/collections.aspx?id=23" target="_blank">The bunny-shaped chocolate dipped marshmallow.</a><br />
You will see, if you click the link above, that you can, ahem, <i>acquire</i> a package of eight for the low, low price of $3.</p>
<p>And you can send them to me. Remember? I live in Oregon!</p>
