I think I have a problem and I am going to finally admit it to all of you.  I, Alexandra Anna Daddario, have to many books.  Okay, nothing wrong with too many books at all.  It is the idea I have versions of certain books from all over the world and I never realized it until as I was organizing my bookshelves here at my condo.  So my question to you is do you have too many of one thing and what is it?  If you do are you willing to give a few of them up because I am not.  I am a bookaholic and proud of it.

[careundrwood]

You have too many books? Is there even such a thing? What kind of books do you have multiple versions of? Oh, gosh, that’s a hard question. I don’t even know if I have too many of anything. But, if I had to say, probably cowboy boots. They take up half a wall in my closet and I don’t even really wear a lot of them. Which I’d be a thousand percent willing to give up just to get rid of some. Being a bookaholic is always something to be proud of.

You know what’s been more fun than a barrel of monkeys? Moving into an apartment with your friend and deciding to bring your two kids along with you. Honestly it’s like my brain thought to make this very difficult for myself. I had the option to leave them with their dad until I got settled but I was afraid I’d miss them too much. Luckily their room was pretty easy to throw together and they’ve been entertaining themselves the past couple of days while I settle in. Now that I’m done complaining, hello - I’m Zooey and I just moved to town and in with my very good friend, Jake. Please tell me your favorite things to do in town? I saw that today is lazy day so I’m about to head down with the kids and hang out for a bit. @townofbayview​

[careundrwood]

That sounds like an absolute blast. Moving with the littles is never an easy thing to do so I feel your pain on that. How old are your kiddos? Thank goodness they found ways to entertain themselves though. Have you gotten any settling in yet? It’s nice to meet you, Zooey -- I’m Carrie. How have you been liking town so far? Did you get a chance to explore at all?

here’s the thing. i just moved into this really nice townhouse downtown. beautiful area, i’m loving it here already. but… here’s the kicker, my stuff won’t be here until next Saturday. i have slept the last two nights on the couch that the previous owners left here because i told them that i wasn’t sure when my stuff would be here and they told me they would leave it for me just in case. lucky for me i did bring my dog’s things because he would be lost without some of his toys and such but this has been very frustrating when the moving company told me it would be here like three days after i got here. but i digress, that i will be staying on this couch until my stuff gets here next Saturday and i am now taking offers for who wants to be a super awesome human being and help me move all of my stuff in and unpack. i’ll not only make you dinner but i’ll buy you just about whatever you want. because you’d be the real MVP. oh by the way, for those of you who do not know me, i am Karlie Kloss. you may have seen my naked butt before in some magazine or walking down a runway in some super cute lengire. but i’m so much more than that under the surface and way more than a pretty face. 

[careundrwood]

Yikes, that sounds like the worst way to spend your first couple days in a new town. It’s really nice of the old owners to leave you something to sleep on for the time being and I’m really glad you’re loving it here already besides that though. This place is pretty amazing, isn’t it? It’s a pleasure to meet you, Karlie -- I’m Carrie. Whenever your stuff comes, I’d be more than happy to help you unpack and you won’t even have to cook for me or anything.

I’ve only been here two days and i’ve already decided....i’m never leaving. Sorry folks, you’re stuck with me! tell my manager to cancel any upcoming plans, i’m going to spend my days ‘chillin’ out maxin relaxin all cool’ bay-side. did i just quote The Fresh Prince of Bel Air? yes, yes i did. I’d ask if that makes me the Fresh Prince of Bayview, but that makes me sound nerdy (spoiler alert: i am nerdy). In other news, i’m happy to report i’ve managed to unpack 3 whole boxes!.....out of like, 15. This is procrastination at its finest, ladies and gents.

bayou-baby:

Nerdy is definitely the word for me. Isaiah’s favorite person? You can’t possiblymean me, can you??  I did, yeah! All the essentials - vinyl records, studio gear, and food for the dogs. I’m not sure he’d be much help in the unpacking department, but i’d never say no if you want to send him my way. That’s my lil best friend, after all! I’ve missed you and the munchkins.

Yeah, but like a cool nerdy. Of course I mean you. Who else could possibly take your place? I’d say those are probably the only things you ever really need. Just forget everything else, right? I’d love to say you’re wrong, but I know you’re not. He’d probably distract you even more from the task at hand. Just let me know when you’d like him over and we’ll stop by. We all missed you very much too. Where are you living around here anyways?

[careundrwood]

So, last night I watched IT Chapter 2 for like the tenth time(as one with an extremely intense phobia of clowns does when her kids are fast asleep, obviously.) and all I kept thinking about was how insanely sexy Bill Hader was.. Just hear me out -- I know he’s no McAvoy or any of the other guys in the movie but he’s seriously so funny. Please tell me I’m not the only person who likes to find the not as attractive person in movies and crush on them?

[careundrwood]

thewondergadot:

How about sometime next week once school is over?  That way I will have more time to prepare something to eat and have something ready for the kids to do when you come visit.

Yeah, that sounds wonderful. You name the day and time and we’ll be there!

[careundrwood]

I have a bet going on with my sisters about who’s gonna win this AFC Championship game today and y’all, I’ve never been more nervous for my boys to wipe the floor with those Chiefs. So, I’ve gotta know -- Titans or Chiefs?(just know if you say Chiefs, I may be highly disappointed). On a completely unrelated note though, if anyone has any party ideas for a one year old’s birthday that don’t involve superheros, throw ‘em my way.

henryccvill:

Oh Lord… So daddy Underwood thinks I’m crazy. Does he think that you’re even crazier than I am though, given that you opened the door and let me in? So now you’re saying that I will make people run away and I don’t know what to think about it… Usually I’d rather have feeling comfortable around me but hey, I guess you can’t be liked by everybody, right? It’d be easier because girls like to talk…? I never forget Kal so it should be okay, even if it would have been interesting to see how a conversation with a little kid can be. You can try the emails and the phone calls and maybe some food baskets? That’s the only ideas I can get!

God, yeah. But he also thought it was really nice of you to come visit. Nah, he thought it was really sweet of me to let the unknown crazy guy inside my home like that. Something about Southern hospitality and all that. Maybe you could introduce yourself to him before just randomly asking him about his kid? He’ll be more apt to talk to you that way instead of running away from you. Bold of you to assume my sisters like to talk at all.. I’ll take Kal inside to play with me and you could always stay on the porch and talk to them through the screen door next time to see how interesting it'd be if you want? Food baskets seem too desperate, I'll roll the dice and see what the calls and emails get me.

sudeikiis:

I will say that we’ve been getting some really great movies these last few years. It’s as if the directors are wanting to get talent with a great storyline, imagine that. Alright, good, because I’m sure he’s here in this conversation somewhere and we don’t want to get to his head. Thank you! It’s been quite a year of good news for us, and I can’t complain. I’m ready for the hot days. We did, yeah! Couldn’t miss out on some outdoor fun. How’s your summer looking like? Doing anything fun? Or are you working a lot?

We really have been. A lot of those directors must’ve got the memo and decided to give everyone what we’ve been asking for all these years.Can you imagine? It sounds like we’d be pretty screwed if he was spying and heard all about how awesome he was. You’re welcome, darlin’. Have you guys found out what you’re having? Or is it still too early? It was a pretty fun weekend, wasn’t it? I’m actually free all Summer which is crazy. But, I am working on a Christmas album for November, other than that though my days will be filled with the boys and our pool. How about you? Anything else exciting?

[thewondergadot]

Thanks for coming the other night. The boys and mama and daddy enjoyed seeing you guys!

Thank you for having us, it was so great catching up with you and I know the kids enjoyed the needed play date.  Next time we should do it at my place, I will make you one of my favorite vegetarian dishes.  

[careundrwood]

It was my pleasure, babes! It’s been a good while since we caught up -- the boys absolutely loved being with the girls again. That sounds wonderful. I’m free mostly all the time. So, just let me know the when and I’ll be there.

[careundrwood]

I don’t think nerdy is the word to use for you. I think you could probably end up getting that nickname to really catch on if you tried hard enough. I can’t believe Isaiah’s favorite person is actually here. He’ll be so excited when he finds out. At least you got 3 boxes down so that’s something, right? If you need help, let me know. I can send over a very energetic five year old who would be more than willing to help.

[ohmychrispine-deactivated202008]

Okay so I have something to confess and I'm not sure how any of you will react to said confession. To my new neighbours, prospective new friends and everything in between I hope you all won't judge me too harshly with what I'm about to tell you - I committed murder earlier today. I know, I know I can feel the judgement already but just know it was a total accident; I'm a klutz and they were in the wrong place at the wrong time, I didn't mean to but now it's too late, they're gone and I've learnt from my mistakes - don't play anything VR related whilst unpacking because you might murder a whole box of pretty fancy plates. Admit it, I had you going there didn't I? It's fine I won't judge, much but murder aside I'm Caity and I like to destroy my own property.

[careundrwood]

Oh, thank God you were only talking about plates. I thought this was about to turn into one of those crime shows or something. Is it ever really considered unpacking if you don’t end up breaking something at some point? Anyways, it’s nice to meet you Caity, I’m Carrie.
