Thank you everyone for you birthday wishes.  Bill had taken me to Barcelona for a delish dinner of tapas and champagne, so the day of, I spend finishing my homework for class, getting my hair cut, and doing some domestic things.

Here is an okay picture of my hair cut.  The highlights don't really show, but they turned out pretty well.

I've started selling my books on half.com....I'm finally getting around to reading some of the many books that my parents keep sending and many of them I don't feel the need to hold onto.  This makes Bill very happy, he thinks I have an abnormal attachment to the books I read.  Whatever...I like books.  So sue me.  So far, I've sold 5!  It's ( Read more... )

I woke up early to go swimming and my suit was hanging outside...in the rain.  So, I rolled over and went back to sleep.  I guess I'm just not committed enough to swimming to put on a cold, clammy, wet bathing suit in the morning.  I've been doing pretty good at it, though...swimming anywhere between 20 - 25 laps when I go.  This week, it has been ( Read more... )

So....my new computer.  As much as it completely sucked to shell out money that I don't have right now, I luff my new toy!  It's so pretty and fast and the screen is wider, which I love.  Windows Vista takes some getting used to, though.  Yesterday, I was about to have a heart attack when I couldn't figure out how to center text in a word document ( Read more... )

For my new MBA class, we have to write a marketing plan for a new product.  I would appreciate feedback on my product.  First, let me know if my description makes sense, then answer the following questions:

1. Is this a product you would use?
2. Is this a product you would buy?
3. How much would you pay for this product?

OK, so what kind of organizational system do you all use?  I need help...my desk is comprised of piles, it's not good.  I have a filing cabinet, which sort of gets used, but no drawers on my desk, so things get piled very easily.  I think I need some sort of shelving system for all of my crap and I'd like to hide it somehow....anyone care to give ( Read more... )

I'm such a good wife.  I let Bill go away over the weekend to St. Louis with some of his college friends and he left about an hour ago to go on another trip without me, a motorcycle trip that could last as long as a week.  They could go as far as Spartan-somethingorother in South Carolina, where his aunt and uncle live.  Apparently the goal is to ( Read more... )

Not much new going on here.  I'm still applying for jobs and not hearing anything back. School is going well and I'm hoping to get an A in this class (have to get 95% or higher to get an A).

I recently received an invite to Ravelry, a knitting and crochet website, and I am completely enamored.  For the other knitters on my friends list, check it out ( Read more... )

I've started scheming for my birthday celebration.  It's the big 3 - 0, so I want to do something memorable.  Unfortunately, school for Bill starts on Aug 27th (just a professional day, kids come back a couple days later), so I have to schmooze his principal and get permission for him to miss the morning.  The only thing I'm going to say right now ( Read more... )
