And here is this year's "Bah Humbug" post. It's really becoming an annual tradition for me.
Shopping started off pleasant with all the good deals and all. Then it recently got ugly when I started seeing things for myself that I couldn't do without. I bought a pair of black patent leather slingback stilettos that I couldn't stop thinking about- they also have an exact pair in Fuschia that I MUST have because I feel like I just might die. I also could not resist a Stila brush set, boots, sparkley tops, and of course MAC makeup (I mean a BUTTLOAD of MAC makeup). The hard part is seeing things and knowing I can't get them right at this moment...Oh it hurts. This is the exact reason why I avoid shopping altogether!!!
I'm going to Joshua Tree tomorrow and I'm rather nervous considering it's probably frozen there right now as I sit in a warmly heated home. Greg bought me a 200 dollar sleeping bag and all I have to say is- that could have bought me a lot of makeup!!! Or at least a really REALLY nice pair of shoes!
Have you ever been to Las Americas? I hate that place. It's an outlet mall curiously located directly next to the US border. I literally parked my car next to thee fence. What annoys me most is what great lengths people will go to to save a buck. People are vicious and what irks me even more is how people stand and talk in the middle of an obviously crowded section where people need to walk through. They're more annoying to me than Katie Holmes (post Tom Cruise)...she REALLY grinds my gears. Like seriously, I'd pay full price just so I don't have to deal with bullshit like that. I'm a convenience shopper. Internet Shopping would be the way to go but I have no patience to wait 3-7 days for it to get to my house :( I guess you could say I'm in a pickle. Gah.
I'm having a total ADHD moment right now. Time to switch format.
Hit list:
1. Rockband! Keep your eyes out for Le Cupcake...the most delicious band you'll ever know.
2. Bargain shopping- I never tried it before until I shopped with July. That woman could start a religion with her methods.
3. The sisters (April and Theia) bought us tickets to WICKED this Sunday. That comes with dinner too!!! Oh I cannot wait. I grew up on the Wizard of Oz and I'm uber-excited to see how THAT goes.
4. Spending the morning in bed with Ollie. :)
5. Mary Poppins. For some reason they have it here at Greg's Mom's house so we popped it in and Ollie was singing "chim chim charooo"
6. Ollie starting to walk.
7. Kelly got a gig in some hollywood movie!!! Yeah, I'll brag because Greg won't. It's my job.
8. My new MAC lipstick that I got that even has the girls at the MAC counter ogling at me.
9. My new shoes. See above.
10. Anything sparkley.
Shit List:
1. Shoppers Remorse. Boo.
2. Being sick for over a month.
3. My baby being sick. Her little runny nose just makes me feel so sad for some reason.
4. Donuts...they'll be the death of me!!!
5. I've been here for over a week and I STILL have not hit up Yogurt World. WHAT?!?!
6. That eventually my vacation will end and I"ll have to go back to work. Poop.
7. Too much Mexican food makes you want to die.
8. San Diego radio stations.
9. STILL not being able to sleep in.
10. The big MONSTER stack of work that I STILL have to grade before break is over :(
