.secret.time.

I absolutely love my husband. Just the thought of him gets to me. But I have to admit something. After Alex, I love two other boys.

First other love:

chumlee. do you know who he is? probably not.


Meet Chumlee.
Dimebag Darrell t-shirt and all.

He is so freaking cute I can't even stand it.
Chumlee is the best part about the show Pawn Stars.
Alex loves him too. If I'm at work and Alex is watching Pawn Stars,
He'll text me what Chumlee is up to that time.
He's the cutest stupid boy i've ever seen.
and even though i am sure he's experienced in life...
he just a child. very innocent.
love it.
Next time I'm even near Vegas, I'm not leaving till I see Chumlee.
Alex even says I can kiss him on the cheek.

.CAN'T WAIT.



Second Other Love:

Benjamin Gibbard.

My goodness his voice melts my heart.
I feel like a little girl again.
Once, I truly thought I loved all five of the backstreet boys.
Well except A.J. of course, he was weird. Anyways...
I feel feelings i probably shouldn't feel when i listen to him sing.
Ben Gibbard is my inspiration. I could (and often do) listen to him all day long.
He has been a part of more bands and collaborated
with more amazing artists than...
pretty much anyone.
i can only describe him as too good to be true.
except,
he's true.
ahh. amazing.
he writes real music. with real meaning and real thought and real intent.
none a this nasty shiz that is creeping into the minds of poor poor children...
oh dear.
I've suddenly realized I haven't been working hard enough at hearing him live.
It's my next major goal.
.CAN'T WAIT.


Just don't forget. Alexander is my #1.

January? Really? Oh... right. Six months of marriage? Oh... right.


So I have this awesome friend named Lindsey Nelson and she reminded me that I am pretty behind on blogging, so here I am, with no idea what I'll say yet. For some reason I love to blog in lists.. I guess we'll find out whats on my mind.


If you say you want to wait 5 years to have a baby and then you get married you will probably change your mind. I can't wait to start my cute little eternal family. That's why I'm here isn't it? YES.




Before I started working at an assisted living facility, I thought I had a pretty good understanding of old people. I missed something though. Yes, they are experienced, tired, and often waiting to die. I just didn't realize that they need family and friends more than ever. I think they deserve to finish their lives happy and feel appreciated for their years of service.



So we've been married for six months. For all of you who have any less marriage experience than I do... I have one word for you.
Compromise. Oh and just remember that you're on the same team. That's all the marriage advice I have. You'll be happy :)



Don't loose yourself. It's just so easy to do. Lately I'll suddenly realize parts of me that have disappeared. I have a creative side that keeps me balanced. I have weird little habits, like coming up with alliteration titles (probably doesn't make sense), finding traffic cones, and writing down lines that one day i might write a book around. When I realized I had lost these habits for a few months, I realized that's what was missing. I don't just want to be a wife and eventually a mother, but I want to be Ali. Forever.


Do you like how all my paragraphs are different shapes and sizes? Haha I am soo good at this. Like I said... I have nothing to say.

Except that I can't wait for JaNae Booth to have her big day in less than 2 weeks!!!! Lucky girl, it's just the best thing ever.
