...or at least I'm attempting to be. Emily invited me to see the midnight showing of Batman Begins with her and her new hubby, Brian. Since I was already on the west side at my parents', I thought this would be the perfect plan: take a nap from 9:30-11pm, have Emily call to wake me up, and head over to the theater after making a coffee stop. I'd ( Read more... )

Last night Jordan and I saw Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith. It was delightful. I'm in the mood for a Star Wars marathon now. That's so unlike me ( Read more... )

Last night my sister and I went to KOHL's. We'd each only been there once or twice and didn't spend much time there in the past, but THIS time, we shopped through the whole store. I can't even tell you how much stuff Shelly got for $200, but for $69, I got 6 really cute tank tops, 2 super-comfortable tees and a smashing skirt and red shirt that I ( Read more... )

Tonight I went to happy hour/dinner with my mum, Aunt Angie and cousin, Lindsay. We talked about girl stuff, ate and drank. I had two very tall Long Islands and went to Claire's at Desert Ridge to fuel my ever-burning addiction to earrings since I just had my ears pierced in February. Being a little out of control and under no one's supervision ( Read more... )

Remember Evie (sp) from that '80s show, Out of This World? I wish I had her super powers right now. I would love to just touch my index fingers together to freeze time and catch up on everything I want to get done. Then I'd place my hands together in prayer formation and carry on ( Read more... )

I'm housesitting for my sister right now, and as much as I'd like to stay home and lounge around, something is telling me to get out of here and do something. I want to go to the Red Sea in Tempe. Only problem is, I have no one to go with that is either available right now or enjoys smoking tobacco hookahs. Bullocks. I'm tired enough to take a ( Read more... )

This weekend is off to a great start. Last night I took Karen out to dinner for giving me a bunch of her stuff before she moves to Chicago in June. I love free stuff, and a 27", relatively new and mint-condition TV for $100. Then I headed on to the Borders on Mill for Fine China's 3rd album release. Unfortunately, I was late for the show, due ( Read more... )

Today I finally broke down and bought an iPod. My boy Jordan, a veteran iPod owner (he owns the 15GB one -- the one with the cool, discontinued buttons)helped me set it up and was a sweetheart to fill it with all the music from his computer. We had a fun debate over the usefulness/uselessness of my 40GB baby -- I was gushing over the possibility ( Read more... )
