Happy Mid-Summer!

My calendar tells me that today is July 20th. JULY 20!@#%&$#@!!&&*#@! It's almost amazing how fast time flies when you're having... fun? Maybe a better saying is that time flies when you're wandering aimlessly through life. I'm tempted to add "a life without meaning", but that's just depressing.

On a lighter note, the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale began last Friday. This really equates to the happiest time of the year for me. I don't know why, but there is nothing more satisfying than a sale. I made a few executive purchases --- a leather jacket, new gym shoes, and paparazzi-proof sunglasses.

As always, I'm featuring a "must-have" item of the month here:


When I think of mice, I usually think of disgusting greasy creatures that live in sewers and raid trash cans for food scraps. But, move over Mickey Mouse, this Marc Jacobs keychain is as cute as can be. Who wouldn't love to carry their keys on it? And hello! Look at the bowtie attached... how classy! Thoughts?

Baggg

I've always had a slight obsession with bags. Slight being an understatement. Here is my pick for "must-have" for this spring:

Amazing, right? It's the Diane von Furstenberg Roberta Wrap Bag... only $600.00. Sigh.

A.I. Again

Ok... how overdue was Scott MacIntrye's exit on American Idol tonight? I'd say VERY. He is just so dull. Is he like a hundred years old? He acts it. So, thank goodness. We can now move on with the real contestants.

And how about that Adam Lambert and Mad World? Best. Performance. Ever. I wasn't a believer until now.

SWOON

Have I found you, flightless bird...

Uneventful

Life has been pretty uneventful lately. It's time to liven things up. 2009 Q2 should fare better.

;)

I'm Alive!

Just ridiculously sleep deprived... and lazy. Gone are the days of watching Jon & Kate Plus 8 and Oprah reruns in the wee hours of the night. Sigh. I miss the bum life. Oh well, I got a new job. One that makes me wake up when it's still dark outside. So lame. I'm even drinking coffee. Before you know it, I might have to drink 3 or 4 cups to get through the day! What has the world come to?

Alright, enough of the boring stuff, let's talk Idol! Who watched the Top 13?!!??!?! This is the first and only season that I've actually decided to watch. It's pretty exciting. No wonder it's so hyped up. Haha. I'm jumping on the bandwagon a little late, but I'm still joining the party, ok? My current faves... Danny (adorable), Anoop (adorable x 2), Kris (so cuuute), and shockingly, Adam Lambert (minus the creepy glitter part). I wonder who's getting kicked off manana. And what is the surprise twist? Hmmm. My prediction is that the judges will get to "save" someone from elimination. And probably Jorge and Anoop will have gotten the least amount of votes. I'm going to vote for Anoop at least 10 more times before I go to sleep. What can I say, I'm a dedicated fan.

:D

I'm Survived

So, the whole wisdom teeth extraction ordeal is not as bad as I made it out to be. I'm up and awake and not dying (thanks to my new BFF, Vicodin...). My doctor did an incredible job because I'm ok and only slightly swollen (chipmunk-y)! Being put under was crazy --- I literally don't remember anything! Awesome! I slept basically all day yesterday and last night, so I'm rather well-rested right now. I'm still taking painkillers and other meds, so today will be another day of taking it easy. No arguments there.

In any case, anyone nervous about oral surgery, I can assure you that it really is no biggie. :)

In case you've been hiding under a rock for the past month, www.fmylife.com is currently the best time waster ever. Hilarious, but also kinda sad. Excellent!

Anyways, when I went to the dentist a week or so ago, they convinced me that I FINALLY needed to get my wisdom teeth extracted. I've been avoiding this for years. Literally. And it's come back to haunt me. Talking to most people, it seems like I'm the last person ever to get this done. Sigh. And I'm scared. But, I'm going to do it. Tomorrow. Wish me luck. And don't worry, they're putting me under.
