It’s time for another Thursday Thoughts! If you want to participate, but have no idea what a link-up is, you can check out my explanation of it here.

~How is it only Thursday?  Hurry up weekend!  This is B’s second to last week of school which I am super excited about (and I am sure he is too)!  It’s going to be so fun to have him home every night.  And I am sure he’s excited to be home more as well.

~My cousins are coming to town this weekend (another reason I wish it would get here) for the Color Me Rad race and B is running it as well. I randomly asked L if he wanted to do it since we were planning on going down there with everyone anyway, and OMG he is SO excited. He so wants to do it. I have no idea how long he will actually want to run for, but he’s so excited about getting all those colors thrown at him! I can’t wait for this!

~I still have a bunch of boxes coming this week, including my Citrus Lane Mystery Box, Orange Glad, GLOSSYBOX Mother’s Day Box, FAIR Treasure, Allure Summer Beauty Box,     PopSugar (maybe?), Hatchery, Jennifer Love Hewitt Fancy Box and a few more I am forgetting.  It should be a busy few days.  In a super good way!

~Has anyone heard about the “Hook-Up Truck” in San Francisco? What in the world? It’s exactly what you think it is. A truck that drives around that you can hook-up in. You can rent it for $75 for 30 minutes or $2,500 for 5 hours. WHAT? The founder said she realized there was a “need” for such a truck after hearing about her friends encounters on Grindr. I had NO idea there was such a need for something like this. No idea! I used to go the bar (kind of a lot) when I was younger and never once did I hear “I wish I had a truck to hook-up in!”. Am I out of the loop? B was like is this going to be on Shark Tank on day?  Hmm, I don’t think so ;).

~B and L went to the Tigers game on Tuesday night and B let him pick a souvenir.  He picked a cute little Paws lego mini fig.  I was like that’s adorable!  A perfect pick I told him.  And then I saw the receipt yesterday.  Dude, this thing was $18.  I am not even joking.  I am cracking up how ridiculous that is.  I would like to stand near where they sell these in the store during a game and listen to the comments.  Just for comparison, real Lego Minifigs are $3.99 at Target.  It’s a good thing the tickets to the game were cheap! LOL!!!!

~WB is working on getting some (more) teeth and is not a happy camper.  I am guessing two year molars maybe?  But there’s no way he’s going to let me look.  He’s super cute though, even at 2am.

Tired.  But not really.

~Bergdorf Goodman has all of the products (including size information) listed on their website from this month’s box! Everyone is getting six of them (plus the $25 Bergdorf Gift Card), but which six will you get is the question! They are selling the box for $40 on Bergdorf’s, but they are still only $21 at GLOSSYBOX! I even bought a 2nd box this month because I am so excited about it (you can gift boxes from your account for only $15)!!

GLOSSYBOX + Bergdorf!

I’ve gotta run, I have some reviews to write!  What are you doing this weekend?  Any big plans?

  1. why would you go INSIDE the truck? ugh, don’t take a black light! that seriously grosses me out. besides, i thought nobody cared anymore about hooking up (or actual sex) in public. there’s bar bathrooms for that, right?

    1. Jennifer

      Ha! I guess??

  2. karen

    Nathaniel is going thru the same thing. Can’t wait to see race pictures.

    1. Jennifer

      I will be sure to post some on Facebook!

    I’ve been wanting to do one of those color races for so long, they look crazy fun! It’s just hard for me to commit to one alone since my SO won’t go. He think it’s silly to pay to run in circles, when we can do it for free in our neighborhood hah! (I guess I can’t argue that part..)

    1. Jennifer

      Ha! You are paying for the experience! And the t-shirt!

      1. Alex M

        I try to tell him this! Maybe I’ll just pay him to throw paint on me while I jog around the neighborhood, then everyone wins.

    I seriously spit water on my computer reading your section about the hook up truck.

    I am registered for the Electric Run in Nashville this summer and can not wait!!! I don’t run but I can walk and yap and have fun for 3 miles! 🙂

    1. Jennifer

      What is the electric run?? Is it at night?

      1. Carla

        Yes! Everyone wears glow in the dark/neon clothes and they have all sorts of glowing trees and stages and tunnels set up. At the end there is a big dance party, rave style! Woo!!! Come down and go with us!! 🙂

        1. Jennifer

          OMG that sounds so fun! That’s like the one they did on the Bachelor!

  5. Cori

    Thanks for the info about the $15 Glossy Box gifts from within your account. That was a perfect gift that I wanted to send.

    1. Jennifer

      It’s such a good deal!

  6. Jenny

    Oh my I think M might have a hearattack if I got that many boxes in one day. LOL not the boxes themselves just the amount of new stuff that would be coming into our house. We keep talking about a big purge but its very slow going.

    1. Jennifer

      Things are slow going here too!! I have been making boxes for friends though, so that is helping to decrease the stash. Sort of!

  7. Jessica

    Speaking of Shark Tank, did you see The Bouqs on it?? I soooo would have given them a deal!

    1. Jennifer

      Yes! I would have given them a deal too!

  8. Bethany

    Haha that picture of B cracks me up. I’m super excited for the May Glossybox!! I actually got my billing notification for May but my April hadn’t shipped, so I had to email them.. it’s on its way. My PS should be here tomorrow!! Poor WB.. teething totally sucks. He is super adorable, though!

    1. Jennifer

      I cannot wait for the May box! I cannot!!!

    OMG! That little overpriced lego guy. We live in the Philadelphia area. Don’t even get me started on the Phillies potato head that I bought for my daughter at the stadium. I could cry over how much it cost!

    1. Jennifer

      OMG. I am dying. How much was it? I must know!

      1. kelly toepel

        It was $25! They are $10 online! The phillies lego guys are $12.99 online, probably also $18 at the stadium. SO crazy! I saw they have Phillies tiaras at the stadium, so I am sure I will be buying all of that!

        1. Jennifer

          Ha!!! I bet I get sucked into one of those one day!

  10. Alexia561

    I think my hubs would have heart failure if I ever got that many boxes in one day! He’d freak out, but I’d love it! ha!

    1. Jennifer

      B doesn’t even flinch anymore!
