Haircut yesterday. I really like my stylist. I can't remember if this is my 3rd or 4th time with her, but I think I may be getting attached, which is something I've never done before. Hair is bouncy, pretty, glossy. $50.

Annual ophthalmologist appointment today. New prescription necessitating new frames and lenses. New frames are gloriously vivid ( Read more... )

For quite a long time now I've been intending to make a post. It's just that whole sitting down and actually doing it bit that seems to be the problem. So, bullet points!

• Annual Christmas card post is over here. Let me know your address if you'd like a card.
• I did pass my national board... by quite a lot actually. I don't have the results sheet on ( Read more... )

One more week of studying before my national exam, and then I'll be able to read fiction and watch movies again. Can't wait!

Right, so last week was my spring break. I worked the first half of the week when the weather was beautiful and warm and sunny. I got Thursday and Friday off when the weather was cold and yucky and rainy. Oh, and I started getting sick Wednesday night with my immune system basically crashing as I left Red Lobster Thursday evening. Isn't that lovely ( Read more... )

If you loved me, you would buy me Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. It's a Classic Regency Romance with Ultraviolent Zombie Mayhem! I really shouldn't have to explain why I want it, need it, must have it. You do love me, don't you? (Thank you, esotaria, for bringing this to my attention ( Read more... )

I plan to get started on the Christmas cards tomorrow. Sign-up is here. I'll probably send out one wave this weekend and another wave next weekend.
After a lovely, nail-biting mishap in which graduate admissions neglected to actually send my re-admission request to my academic department, I am cleared for registration and will be meeting with my ( Read more... )
