Raves + Revelations

I've had a little bit too much birthday fun this weekend. I have a lot to share with you.
So many good times.. and one bad time which almost ended in a fist fight. 
But, I'll save all of that for tomorrow. Today, I want to introduce you to an amazing blogger.
If you're a reader of mine I know you'll love her!




Hey ya'll! No, I'm not Southern, I'm just lazy and prefer abbreviations whenever possible. Anyway, I'm Rachel and I blog over at Raves + Revelations, which is exactly what it sounds like: a lifestyle blog where I rave, rant and revel in life.



A few important things you should know about my blog:



  1. My blog was "born again" last summer after a revelation I had about wanting to get serious about my writing career. The gist? I want to write a book, and I think I have stories worth telling.
  2. Some of said stories include participating in a Tough Mudder, rockin' out to Wiz Khalifa whilst drinking champagne, traveling to Europe and going behind the scenes at Obama headquarters on Election night.
  3. Reality TV is my vice, and people on shows like The Bachelor make creating blog material easy.
  4. Those rants I mentioned earlier? They're usually "to the" people who do things like go to the bathroom in the stall next to me, even though there are five empty stalls, or to people like Teresa Giudice who have an unacceptable hairline. (See note above about reality TV.)
  5. I don't only blog snark. I join lots of linkups, and really do have some revelations that I share. 
A few important facts you should know about me?
  1. i love to write. i love to make people laugh. i love to tell stories. i love it the most when I can do all three of these things at once.
  2. once, when I was in elementary school, I left an obscene message for my dentist. (You're going to have to read this post to get the full story on that one.)
  3. Ryan Gosling is on my top five. 
  4. i believe that "That's what she said" jokes will never get old and will make me laugh every single time. 
  5. i am a birthday snob.
That about sums it up. I'd love for you to come over and just peruse, or follow me via GFC. Leave a comment that you're a new follower and I'll return the favor.

Looking forward to hearing from you lovelies!

You can’t blog with us!

I’m not digging all of these big shot bloggers trying to make these rules for blogging. I have read posts about how not everyone should have a blog. If you’re not a big shot blogger, like myself.. this post is for you. If you are a big shot blogger, this post is also for you.. but, none of you will read this. These are just some of the rules that I don’t follow.. Your blog will be judged by it’s cover. Have a perfect layout. If spending $100 to have some make a layout for my blog means you’ll read my blog and you’ll follow me.. then I don’t give a damn if you’re not following me. Respond to all comments left on your blog. It is important to respond to comments.. however, I do understand why people can’t always respond. Personally.. if you ask me something I most likely will respond. A lot of the time I get comments that pretty much all I can say is “Thank you!” to.. I mean.. I’ll absolutely always respond if you e-mail me.. or even if you comment on instagram.. I respond almost inst

Friday’s Letters!!!!

Dear Bret Michaels, Once I had a film class. It was so badass and made me wish I was an actress. I actually love being in front of the camera acting.. ANYWAYS.. This was the closest I’ve been to you.. when I was on a fake Rock Of Love.. with a fake Bret Michaels.. But, I’ll be seeing you live this Saturday!!! Dear Poison and Def Leppard, See you on Saturday!!!.. I’m pretty damn nervous to party with a bunch of people older than my mom. But, thank you for giving me an excuse to have extra big hair and dress like I belong in the 80’s.. I’ll look better than all these old chicks that still live in the 80’s.. Just sayin’.. Dear Friday’s Letters, You always make me so happy to write! I love that this link up always gets me so much positive feedback! It always makes my Friday so much better!.. I work Friday nights and Saturday mornings.. so Friday isn’t always as awesome to me as it is to everyone else. Dear Ashley from Adventures of Newlyweds, The first time I ever linked up I mention
