according to a new dress policy at work, i must wear scrubs, or a lab coat...
i ordered a super cute baby phat lab coat, last monday, and it's not here yet. so, my friend gave me some scrubs that don't fit her. they are actually a cuter option for such a hideous look.
i have zero choice. it's either look non-fab and have job, or no job and look fab for a short while until the money runs out...
:(
i am shallow and ridiculous, but the best part of my day is getting dressed and picking out my outfit. i guess i'll just have to focus on the hair and makeup tomorrow then.

how worried should i be?Category: economcis
sometimes it seems like this world is so messed up, it's gonna just blow up or be blown up real soon.
either that or the second great depression, or some sort of monster plague is headed our way.
maybe i'm just melodramatic.
maybe (almost) everyone in my family is completely losing it, or about to completely lose it.
i think for the first time i'm going to be smart and not buy shit. i'm putting money in the bank tomorrow, and keeping it there.
should i stock pile food too????
and instead of complaining at work, i am going to be sugar sweet. i make ok money, and i need to have a job...
i'm going to hide in my bed now and watch the hills and pretend i own marc jacobs things.

There is nothing wrong with getting canned food and frozen foods all kinds of supplies that will last. But remember if you have frozen stuff you will also have to have the stuff to cook it. There is nothing wrong with taking shooting classes and getting guns and learning how to be a survivalist and maybe even learn how to plant your own food, not sure what Grows in AZ, as a just in case and to be prepaired. I don't think this world is any worse then it used to be. Remember blacks used to not have any rights, women couldn't vote, there where world wars and plagues. I think that the view that world is more messed up now has a lot to do with how News Coverage is in our country. Take the virgina tech shooting as an example. We heard all this bad stuff. But Yet I bet you other then maybe for sports if you Lived in VA the school was never in the news for good stuff. What about all the good kids who go there and get an education and go on to jobs. See the good stuff unless it is really good doesn't sell so you don't hear about it. Unless it is someone doing something that helps out someone "Bad" or helps a bad thing. For example buying back guns is good and it gets covered because it is part of a crime story, or a fighting crime story.

If it helps...
Sometimes I feel better just putting things in my cart doing online shopping, and then I just don't buy it -or- I make very specific requirements on what I'm allowed to purchase. It must be under $30, make me feel skinny, and be a color I don't already own...
I think everyone is about to almost lose it - if they're not then they aren't living life to its fullest or taking any chances...who wants that?!?!

the daydreamerCategory: books
i'm taking a children's literature class, and while the professor is really annoying and one of those too happy people, i enjoy the reading assignments.
i just finished, "the daydreamer" by ian mcewan. same guy who wrote atonement.
it's odd because that book was really depressing and a downer, and this book is so cute and fun. it's a collection of shorts stories told through the eyes of a very imaginative young boy.
i found myself laughing out loud many times, and i will definitely by reading this book to my kids one day.
when i was reading it, there were so many times when i remembered being a child and having the same thoughts about random things.
it's an easy read and will definitely keep you entertained, and it's even better when your friends read it too, so you can talk about all of the funny situations!

people i love to hateok. so when (e:hodown) was here, she's on hey lappy, which is the same as mine. i prefer a streamlined look when there are other laptop users around. the momforce is stuck in laptop land circa 8 years ago, but (e:hodown) has the same lovely macbook as me.
and she has the black one. i like it dark.
anyway, she's looking at all these sites, and she always has the scoop on the nyc social scene. who's awesome, what to wear, and which bloggers we love to hate.
[link=]http://nonsociety.com[/link]
so it's these three girls who apparently all come from money and they blog about their pointless lives. i must say the techie one seems actually pretty smart, and i guess was super geeky until those other girls got ahold of her and glammed her up a bit.
the other two are insanely annoying. i seriously don't know anyone even here where all the richies live, that can afford to wear jimmy choo, and manolo shoes everyday.
it seems they spend their time picking out outfits and going to fashion shoots and doing juice cleanses, and getting colonics. they range from 22-26ish, and i am just in awe.
i would be totally fine if they were more trashy or slutty or interesting, but the site seems to have no purpose or intellect.
i mean, i will be the first to admit that i would love to be in their shoes, but i would at least do something worthwhile and give to charity or try to give back somehow.
plus, for all of the primping and money they have, i don't think they look that great.
this site however has some super hot chicks who are stylish, super smart, and funny, and actually care and write about things that matter...
[link=]http://jezebel.com[/link]
i am still obsessed with nonsociety though.
i need a new web obsession.
i need to get a life of my own.
it scares me how i really think i have entered adulthood. i am now constantly finding things to clean and organize. then when i start i don't stop. i don't think i have had a bathroom or room so clean and organized ever. and i'm thinking of organizing it all by color now.
and this has nothing to do with anything, but i am the first picture/link when you google video chat. i have to avoid ichat now at night, or really all the time, because i get creepy men wanting to video chat with me. thanks (e:paul).

my links never work. help.
my links never work. help.
there are totally fancy scrubs, like with winnie the pooh on them or unicorns. Don't worry you'l lstill be styling!
I don't like scrubs either. They might be comfortable and easily sterilized but they get ridiculously abused by all and sundry. You sometimes have to wonder at the utility of a scrub if its worn all over the place and the concept of "sterile" loses its meaning. :/
I don't want no scrub
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hanging out the passenger side
Of his best friend's ride
Trying to holler at me
great. now that song will be stuck in my head all day.
Bedazzler?
oh my.... maybe you can put sequins on them and embroider them with your initials?
xxxx
Can you tailor them to fit and flatter? What is the essential element of "scrubs"? The icky fabric? Layering?
