I just pulled them off hangers because I hadn't worn the shirt ever and I hadn't worn the skirt in FORever, so I was like, "hmm...this will have to work!" haha<br />Oh, I don't think you're the elephant in the room at all!! And I would personally never think an awkward person WAS the elephant in the first place. I was more so referring to things that make everyone else feel awkward, be it situations or other people's attitudes or the things unsaid that need to be addressed. Hell, if I thought awkward people were the elephants then I'd be one myself! haha As extroverted and vocal as I am, I'm still pretty damn awkward, ask Mikey. He tells me that about ten times a day. :)<br />I need to live near you so we can work on those blunt skills, hehe Roni E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12615759299179336851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4864465321302250860.post-27132011326544902092012-10-21T11:37:58.916-07:002012-10-21T11:37:58.916-07:00I think the elephants and houndstooth most definit...I think the elephants and houndstooth most definitely work! Super cute look as always :] That hairbow is also so sweet.<br /><br />I am the complete opposite! First of all - I typically am the one making things awkward (I guess I am the awkward elephant in the room) and people always call me out on it. Aaaaand then I am terrified of stirring the pot. I need to work on my confrontation skills.

See, we're gonna be great real life friends...on that day we finally meet in real life. :) <br />And OMG, Mikey can never get away with that being alone to think stuff! hahah Not on my watch. <br />Insane in the membrane always reminds me of that Cypress Hill song, even though I hate it. When I was a kid, this older girl I knew always played it. I thought she was so cool. I've never seen the Dickey Roberts movie, but I've heard of it. I'll check good ol' Netflix to see if it's there. I love doing nothing but watching a ton of movies on the weekend. <br />I will be catching up on your blog this weekend, missy. I'm so behind! :/<br />♥ Roni E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12615759299179336851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4864465321302250860.post-83853440206211123212012-10-18T22:06:39.220-07:002012-10-18T22:06:39.220-07:00I took a note of all your fun pattern mixing and d...I took a note of all your fun pattern mixing and decided to change things up a bit here. ;)<br />Thanks, Corrine! xoRoni E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12615759299179336851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4864465321302250860.post-31495271412765005002012-10-18T22:05:48.892-07:002012-10-18T22:05:48.892-07:00Thanks, Samantha! :)Thanks, Samantha! :)Roni E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12615759299179336851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4864465321302250860.post-76058873972829105782012-10-18T22:05:35.974-07:002012-10-18T22:05:35.974-07:00Thanks, Jessica!Thanks, Jessica!Roni E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12615759299179336851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4864465321302250860.post-62304624030487348552012-10-18T22:05:25.192-07:002012-10-18T22:05:25.192-07:00Gracias!

It truly and utterly bothers me! Lol Oh, girl, I've been there with 'that' person at work. And I said my peace in the most professional way and it still didn't do anything. That person was always doing something to piss me and everyone else off. I swear she lived to gossip and make work a miserable place. My last week on the job I let her have it real good. Let's just say I was done being a lady and didn't give a damn who heard or what. She needed to hear that. And from what I heard after I left, nothing changed. I was hoping for a mega dose of reality but some people will be who they are forever, incapable of change or epiphanies. Anywhooo, haha, tangent. No, I just had a bio in that building that particular day. Science and me don't belong anywhere close to one another. Although I must say I'm wayyy better at it than I thought I was. Ask me anything about cell division, nucleotides and the purposes of DNA profiling. haha, but really. ;)<br />Thank you for the comment, Trice. You always make me smile.

It's far and few in between my visits. <br />Depending on the kind of elephant, I like to simmer down for a while too and collect my thoughts and how I'd word it when it does come time for confrontation/conversation. I've put my foot in my mouth before and felt horrible about coming out too strong. I agree about waiting a while. The times I've done that too, it turned out the elephant didn't even have anything to do with me! They were just having a bad day. And omg, yess! The older I get, I just don't care! With certain things of course. ;)<br />Did you love the season premiere of AHS last night?!!!Roni E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12615759299179336851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4864465321302250860.post-22050222542703139022012-10-18T21:44:27.448-07:002012-10-18T21:44:27.448-07:00Thanks, Allie!

Just walk in and scope shops out; definitely their books! Asking around also helps. Ooorrr if you see a stranger in the streets with great work and they're a local, ask for their artist. :) I used to carry my artist's business cards with me because I got asked in the grocery store so much in Vegas.

I don't see how anyone could even require confrontation with you. :) But yes, I'll do it for you! haha <br />I've actually done that (make the elephant bigger), maybe a time or two but not anymore than that; I'm pretty damn good with observing/analyzing people and behaviors. So I don't tend to call things out unless I can positively identify them as an elephant in the first place. <br />I say anytime something is bothering you or making you uncomfy, either bring it up or just separate yourself from the situation. :)Roni E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12615759299179336851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4864465321302250860.post-88607232319929933242012-10-18T21:36:27.194-07:002012-10-18T21:36:27.194-07:00Heeyyyy no problem, Minja!

I hope your week was marvelous and you got everything your precious, deserving heart wanted! <br />As far as your tattoo! WhaaA?? I had no idea you were about even thinking about having one. I'm excited for you now!! My first one was a mistake, hahaha the only tattoo out of all mine that I had to get covered up no matter how much it didn't suit me anymore. It was my ex's name and I was 18 when I got it. My mother wanted to kill me when she found out...two years later! haha I got it on my tummy so it was hidden all that time, plus I'd gone to the military already so she didn't see me anymore as often. But yeah...that's my silly story. I'll be on your blog soon to share this with you in case you don't see this comment on here. I hope you've got some ideas already; I wanna hear them!Roni E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12615759299179336851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4864465321302250860.post-49668031202608768502012-10-18T21:32:18.885-07:002012-10-18T21:32:18.885-07:00YOU are just like my sister!

So I'll figure that out for myself one day and try and find out how I'll work with that, since being incredibly honest is in my nature. hehe I have gotten better with "picking my battles" though. I used to just go head first before. Even if it's killing me so bad because I want to address something, I'll wait till time has smoothed over the situation and my words have found themselves a bit more sensitive.

And luckily my true, close friends already know I don't put up with elephants or anything lingering on that might be causing friction between us. Even though they don't do well with calling the elephant out, they've told me they appreciate that I do it. I'm glad. :) It definitely has saved relationships and friendships, I think. Honesty has always been my numbero uno. But as my hubby has always said, I'm not just honest, I'm brutally honest. Hahah I just hope I never hurt anyone's feelings; that is almost never the case. <br />Thanks for the comment, doll :)Roni E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12615759299179336851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4864465321302250860.post-14139092767635646402012-10-18T21:23:28.340-07:002012-10-18T21:23:28.340-07:00Awww, thank you, Marlen!
