What I'm Loving and How Pinteresting Wednesday

"Love is playing every game as if it were your last."  ~Michael Jordan

I'm going double link up today as well since it worked out so well last Friday.

We'll start off with What I'm Loving Wednesday.

1.  My friend Almost Gypsy Soul has this awesome thing on her blog where she has a different playlist each month.  This month she went completely Red Dirt and I love the entire thing.  It'e been on repeat in my office for two days straight.  Go to her blog.  You will thank me.

2.  Speaking from the playlist, I particularly L-O-V-E "Never Been Out West" by Mickey and the Motorcars.  How had I never heard this song before??

3.  Let's talk about my Pokes.  You know, the #15 ranked basketball team in the country.  As a girl who was at OSU during the Eddie Sutton/Final Four/John Lucas/Tony Allen era, I say it's about freakin' time we're back where we are supposed to be!  Check out this dunk by Markell Brown.



That, kids, is how you dunk a basketball.  Bring on the tournament!

4.  Last weekend my friend Fellow OSU Alum and I went to see Silver Linings Playbook.  I'll admit it started out slow for me...probably 45 minutes in I was wondering if we were ever going to go anywhere.  But I realized that I really was into it when it got close to the end and I thought it was not going to end the way I wanted it to end and I was seriously fuming.  Sign of a good movie.  I also learned that this movie is based on a book (I apparently live under a rock?) and since the book is always better I've ordered it from Amazon and plan to read it ASAP.  Oh, and Jennifer Lawrence is freaking adorable.  She and I would totally be friends in real life.

5.  Sometimes nice guys finish first.  Have you guys seen this story?  When a woman accidentally dropped her engagement ring into a homeless man's cup along with some change, he returned it when she came back two days later looking for the ring.  He could have pawned it and made $4,000, but he did the right thing.  Well through the media attention this has created, people have now raised over $175,000 to help him back on his feet and he's reconnected with his family.  I love a happy ending.

6.  Yesterday I had the best English muffin I have ever tasted.  My boss/friend showed up with them yesterday to thank us for working on a certain case.  They.were.amazing.  No, you don't understand, I think I'll probably be dreaming of these things when I move to Texas.  I could have taken a picture, had I not inhaled it in 10 seconds.

And, now, let's talk Pinterest.  Yes, I admit it.  I'm an addict.  It's happened.  Sheesh.  Here are a handful of my favorite pins from the last week.  (All images via Pinterest.)

Love OSU!

Amen to that!

My favorite hymn.

Love this quote.

Totally doing this in my new yard!

This made my day!
