New Year's Eve.
New Year’s Eve is just as overrated as Valentine’s Day. Something always goes wrong, someone always pukes or gets into a fight, etc., etc.
This year, I am headed down to Victory Park with Ashley and a couple thousand other people to ring in 2009, watch some fireworks and drink booze on the streets of Dallas. I am a bit skeptical, but I will take pictures and provide an update on...

Is there really anything better...
…Than comfort food (lasagna made by me), cake (made by Ash) and a few bottles of wine with your best girl friends (Ash and Mak)?
I don’t think so.

Last minute gifts.
It’s the eve of Christmas Eve and I finished running some errands and picking up last minute necessities this evening after work.
I always seem to think of something better or more appropriate or more funny to get someone on my list a day or so before Christmas and find myself running around looking for it.
Just two more things to wrap, some appetizers to make for Christmas Eve at my...

Organized iTunes library.
I always ignore the iTunes update when it pops up and for some reason I accepted it today and downloaded the newest version.
I am now obsessed with finding all the album covers and organizing my songs so they are all nice and pretty. I have a done a pretty good job so far and I am just categorizing the randoms, like 80’s music, into albums and finding some random images to include as album...

Hopefully...
It’s a great feeling to finish up Christmas shopping. Especially when the weather is cold and it actually feels like the holidays.
It’s a terrible feeling to drop a bag when you are carrying everything up the stairs and hear something break. It’s an even worse feeling when you remember that the store only had one of that item left.
I called the store and the lady who answered...

Open mouth, insert foot.
I am having one of those weeks when everything that comes out of my mouth is stupid and everything I do has terrible consequences.
I need to snap out of this and get my shit together.
What is a Cat?
1. Cats do what they want.
2. They rarely listen to you.
3. They’re totally unpredictable.
4. When you want to play, they want to be alone.
5. When you want to be alone, they want to play.
6. They expect you to cater to their every whim.
7. They’re moody.
8. They leave hair everywhere.
CONCLUSION: They’re tiny women in little fur coats.

It's been a windy weekend.
The people upstairs from me must be away this weekend. Since Friday evening when I came home from work (I was supposed to have the day off so I wasn’t in the best mood), I have been hearing a banging noise every once in a while. I thought my neighbors were moving.
Up until yesterday, I didn’t know what it was. Until…I poked my head outside on the balcony and looked up. Their...

Slightly obsessed.
I finished Twilight last night (in 3 days) and had to stop at Borders on my way home from work to pick up New Moon. I might be slightly obsessed now.
But hey, I had a coupon and got 30% off.
Time to start reading!

Weekend recap.
Even though it is Tuesday, I had a pretty damn good weekend:
Friday: Had a 1/2 vacation day in the afternoon. Went to the outlet mall and thanks to Ashley, got an awesome deal on a super cute Cole Haan bag. Had too many glasses of wine at happy hour and then proceeded to try out Fedora, a new place by the Campisi daughter (I think the one who posed in Playboy), over at One Arts Plaza. Good...

Christmas shopping.
I love shopping when the mall and the stores are quiet. I got some great stuff today and was able to cross a couple of people off my shopping list and get some good ideas for the rest. I even picked up new shoes for CES in January (AKA a reason to purchase nerdy shoes that will stand up to 12 hours on my feet) and two sweaters from Steve & Barry’s, which I just found out is going out of...
